The Official Government Reports: — «• ' - The United States Government, after elaborate tests, reports the Royal Baking Powder to be of greater leavening strength than any other. (Bulletin 13, Ag. Dtp; p- m ) The Canadian Official Tests, recently made, show the Royal Baking Powder highest of all in leavening strength. (Bulletin 10, 16, Inland Rev. Defi.) - In practical use, therefore, the Royal Baking Powder goes furthei, makes purer and more perfect food than any other. /> Government Chemists Certify; “.The Royal Baking Powder is composed of pure and wholesome' ingredients. It does not contain either alum Or phosphates, or other injurious substances. ,Edward G. Love, Ph.

With available cash of $41,000,000 in the Treasury an*) a tioket against it for $54,000,000 of special funds used as available bash and spent, it is easy to see the extent of the.Harrison “surplus.” ’ Jacob Williams, of Blue River ppstoffiee, "Washington county, Is aged tWenty-four, and he stands seven feet two and one-half inches in his stockings. Ills foot is fifteen inches 1n length, , A sain of only 17 per cent, in the imurbei'of failures for the first nine ’months under the McKinley bill tiiows that the American people can ■get alonjf somehow in spite of blockhead legislation. i , —- In trying to make Harrison seem aiiInch oc so tailor the Republicans ’go back to Buchanan for a comparienjn;”' That-is a long trip for them to take, and when they start on it the cdHntry goes with them only until it ^pts to Cleveland. . j'-,-- ’v The apologetic tone of Mr. Cleveland’s remarks on girl babies indicates that he does not keep ppsled ou 'Police Russeil’ff .strokes of financial' genius; or maybe be considers a Prince RuSsell impossible outside the Harrison family. * Whktimcn Rack has been suspended or not, his methods must be.

In Iowa the Republicans are dissatisfied beciauso their candidate cannot talk at all. In Massachusetts the Republican Boston Gazette calls their candidate, Allen, “a mistake and a disappoinlment”-be<sause he “speaks industriously” but uses words which “make no impression.” year in which < well, give up try ill] either with themscivesj dates or the situation. Indianapolis elects Sullivan, (democrat) for mayor over Herod (Uep.) Everybody ‘who has studied the course of the contest could see that the republicans were handicapped,— first by the administration influence; and by the Sim Coy desertion to the republican sido. The whole corrupt Slick Sis influence was used to reinstate that side in power. The result is a fearfully black evo for Harrison. —Evansville Journal.

Republican papers are already setting up the plealhat as Ohio goes this year so will the general elect ion next year go. Ohio has not heen a very good off year indicator in the past, why should it be so* now? If New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Iowa all go one way it might be signlgcant of tho coming event. But Ohio is a Republican state and few Democrats have any reasonable expectations of carrying it this year. With a family history as well as an individual record to sustain, it was impossible that Mayor Sullivan’s renotninalion for a second term should have transformed him iuto a common outlaw. Yet the Journal, of Indianapolis, lias charged him with almost every offeuse to the criminal catagory. It has published statements concerning him that showed on their face proofs of their own falsity.—Evansville Journal. “The New £ngiand fisherman gets his salt free of tariff lax with which to preserve his catch; the Standard Oil Company gets practically free tin with which to ship its kerosene abroad, and Phil. Armour gets his tin for his foreign trade on the same terms. Your farmer must cure his pork with taxed salt, and your artisan must carry his dinner pail of taxed tin. That Is McKinleyism, pure and simple—a rich map's law and a poor man’s tax.”

The Democrat once predicted that natural gas is scarce in S lulhcrii Indiana, and that, in all probability, none of genuine Trillion gas exists. For this several williiig-aud-anxious-to-flnd-fault enemies stood on the corners and made derogatory remarks about the paper till their backs had titpe to moss oyer. Holing was tried eVerwhere, even in Petersburg, and a little vegetable gas is all that has been found. Going deep enough to iiiul the gcuuiue quality, and salt water is always reached. Wnrevcr; if gas was ever formed here it forced its way through fisnre to higher northern strate, fur gas will rls®, and we here are lower than the gas belt. If We ooofd strike in the red shale, which only a few hundred feet, a vein from the gas region, we might tap even the greatest gas reservoir. But who can trust to finding a* vein {hat is the result of a break in Trenton rock fourteen hundred feet deep and ! then a broken figure in sand stone down to Southern Indiana-? There tney, and there may not be such a tiling. The chaitcu* are against it. The gas crate would better bo |cfl ahnio by tlte Pocket boy*. *. •

A Dead Loss. The standing bids for American tin-plate are still unanswered, as the enitre “output” seeins lo be required to supply the .Republican campain committees with badges which all sensible neonle are ashamed to wear. he canning business very seriously cramped. Beon tin-plate was increased, smSTWWH^^factories were beginiug to aprin^up through the west, relying on neighborhood supply of fruits and vegetables,, and making a living profit both for themselves and the farmers. The business, of course, depends wholy on haring tin cans plentiful and cheap. Othewiso these small factories cannot preserve the food at a profit, and it is left to rot in the fields. The farmers of-. Howard County, Indiana, hud such a caning factory at Kokomo as a “home market” for their surplus vegetables, but the McKiuley bill forced an advance of over 20 per cent, in the price of cans. 'Bite result is the demoralization of tlie few the East could not take from the West. “The farmers of Howard County plauted hundreds of acres of tomatoes,,’ says the Kokomo Dispatch. “The crop is excellcut and every grower stood to realize from $35 to $100 on the acre. . There is no chance of this now. To-day the Kokomo Canning Works refused to receive another bushel of the vegetable for an indefinite time. The reason given is that cans for packing tomatoes caunot be had. Thousands of bushels are rotting in the yards at the works. Tons upon tons are decaying in the fields. The loss to Howard county fanners cannot be counted in less than five figures. No wonder they are asking for tho whereabouts ot the “infant tin industries.” * Tho loss here is a “dead loss.” Tho Tin Plate combine does not gain it. They get their profit under the tax in other directions. Here this food, which under fair trade would have been marketed to teed the poor of the cities, is lost to them and tho labor required for. its production is likewise lost. Where plenty is created as a natural result of labor and trade, artificial scarcity is produced hr the tax on trade. The result is dead loss, iu this case, as in every case of taxation levied to produce artificial scarcity.

; Useful te Know. An excellent cleansing fluid, especially useful when men’s garments require renovation, is prepured as follows: dissolve four ounces of white castile soap shavings in a quart of boiling water. Wheu cold add four ounces of ammonia, two ounces each of cl her, alcohol and glycerine, and a gallon of clear cold water. Mix thoroughly, and, as it will keep for a long lime, bottle and eork tightly for future use. This mixture will cost about SO cents, and will make eight quarts. Ifur men’s clothing, heavy cloth, etc., dilute a small quantity in an equal amount of water, and following the nap of the goods sponge the stains with a piece of similar cloth. The grease that gathers upon the collars of coats will immediately disappear and the undiluted fluid will vanquish the more obstinate spots; When clean, dry with a warm iron. According to Harper's Bazar, which is authority for the foregoing, this fluid is also useful when painted walls slid woodwork require scouring, a eppful to a pail of water being the jwnjx’r proportion, ■_-—x— -— ' Notice to Taxpayers.

Special dispatch to the Enquirer. Columbus, Ohio. October 7.—-The j llu-piate list' has cotnc to grief at last is I predicted he woultf two or tliree weeks ago. , When Major MeKinley went ( through the dramatic preformance of \ DIPPING SHEET IRON , [n an alloy composed of lead, tin and zinc at Piqna on the 18th of September, the product was labeled and , itainped: “Made of Ohio steel! ami Culifor- , nia tin, Piqna, 1891‘. McKinley and protection.” A At Music Ilall in Cincinnati,Green? pitle, Ohio, and Ottumwa, Iowa, . Major McKinley exultiugly referred to ins Piqua feat, and declared that he himself made ..tin-plate composed of. the above ingredients.’• This declaration of hfeVras followed by'dertMieateS1 and affidavit^ from ilie Piqna concern, stating that the product was made .from Ohio steel and California tin and “Middleport sleei billets” were SPECIFICALLY NAMED As the steel from which the plates Were rolled. Of course, steel is the necessary basis foi’ tin-plate. These plates, it is sworn and certified and publicly announced, wero steel. Eight boxes of the stuff were delivered to Major Sternburger, of Piqua, on a contract culling lor tin, nnd guaranteed to be composed of the metals already named. As soon as I examined it I announced, through the eoulums of The Enquirer, that it was nothing more or less than sheet iron coated with lead or some sort of a composition composed of lead, tin and other materials. To make this fact indisputably clear, I submitted a sheet of the 6tuff for SCIENTIFIC ANALYSIS To the department of Chemistry in the Ohio State Univcrsaity. Mere is the official result of that analysis. Sidney A. Norman, Professof of Chemistry. Residence JTo. 363, Town street. Oaio State University- i Columbus, Ohio, October 61891 ) W. A. Taylor, Columbus, Ohio— DeurSir: The sample of steel metal submitted for ana!) sis contains: Tin .... tt.274 per oent Lead . . S 082 per cent Iron (with carbon). 87.054 per cent Total . . 100.000 per oent Zinc, unweixhable traces.

ltespccttuiiy submitted. Fredric Kafker. Asst. in Chemistry. O. S. U. T|iis, of course, completely disposed of the Whole question, and shows that the stuff delivered “was neither tin son ANY THING APPKOACtllNO TIN.” As claimed bv Major Stonberger in his letter to the Corrugating Company on the first day of October. It is unnecessary, after this analysis, to say that if the stuff iiad been applied to the ordinary uses of tin, it would have poisoned any person using the utensils. The analysis shows that the sheets were precisely what I claimed—sheet iron, coated with a composition of lead and tin. The zinc found by the analysis shows that the sheets were treated i« TUB GALVANIZING DEPARTMENT Of the Corrugating Company’s Works, for the purpose at giving them a tin-like look. The Chemical analysis is sufficient to Boyle tin-plate liar thoroughly and effectively. The Republican Song has been hitherto: _ 5 “With Sugar and tin We’re bound to win.” It should n<>w be charged to conform to the facts, and .be singers should warble: ‘•It isn’t a sin To counteract tin.” Ac least, it is clear enough that Major McKinley and the ilepublican leaders do not think it a sin to make counterfeit tin for campaign purposes.

V die yyiih'-tpritft'i'.Ug i hue nee Ofi icious legislation is forcibly illusvafcd iu the cfliets of the McKinley arid directly upon other brunches of lusluess. By increasing the tax upon oreign cotton goods brought to this sountry, afttl by helping to unsettle justness in Europe, one of the first •Sects of the new tariS was to start a leeline in cotton'ihat has only lately >een arrested. The protectedmanufacturers, in fact of the decline in the trice Of raw cotton, advanced the trices of 6taple bleached and untleached cotton goods proportionately vith the increased protection. But he Southerners, being short of ovtiity, reduced their purchases not only if cotton goods hut of all other maulfactured articles; and it is a fact of he business situation to-day in St. UtuU and every other commercial scutral that sales to the South are Markedly smaller than in ordinary leasons. The vicious economic legslation of tlie Billion Dollar Cotttress as it affects cottoM, therefore, Burts not only the South but the nannfacturiug and business interests >f the whole country. Summer is gone and the mclaniltolly days are truly setting in. It is l time for such reflection as only the tged always indulge. Nature herself helps along the ‘saddening approach of saddest moment's, and us the takes up the green„carpct of the uarth and paints the forest witli yellow and purple and gold she" casts jver man a feeling so akin to his declining years that his hopes blast at the thought of by-gone days—unpleasant because they too are .gone. But why not bo cheerful ? God never has yet taken away one Summer without the promise aiitl its fulfillment of another. Even though it be life we lose, and death come slow and sad and severe, there is still an eternal hope for every one, and for him that believeth there is a consolation ill the knowing that another summer will dawn when this one has waned.
