IN THE LENS.
About six months ago we sold two kodaks fitted, with
special lenses.
The lenses cost more than the kodaks.
But the work turned out by these two kodaks was so
, far superior to the ordinary that the owners became
enthusiasts.
Others saw the pictures and ordered special lenses for
their kodaks. As a result we have sold more Goerz and
Zeiss lenses already this year than in all the years we
have been in business. We have always recommended
such an equipment but the price of the special lens made
customers reluctant to try it. Since they have seen the
advantage we are getting orders nearly every day.
If you want the BEST results get a Goerz or Zeiss
lens. We have several very fine ones in stock and will
quote prices.

British View of
Japanese Affair.
London, December 4. The Daily
Mail publishes an editorial this morn
ing on the diflieulties of the United
States with Japan over the school
question in San Francisco. The pa
per is of the opinion that in spite of
the gravity of the situation, owing
to the fact that President Roosevelt
has no powsr to coerce California, it
is foolish to suggest that Japan would
attempt to force her rights at the
cannon's mouth. Japan certainly
has no intention of picking a quarrel
with the United States, the paper
says. America lias been her firm
friend in the past, her rulers will bo
able to make allowances for the dif
ficulties of Amurica and as President
Roosevelt is certain to meet Japan's
requests in a fair and kindly spirit,
the incident will pass and be forgotten.
".Yet, sooner or later," the Daily
M lil .includes, "'he West will have
in reckon vith the f u t. of Asiatic
el.iini" to I'erfcr.t. equality with the
Wi-.ternrrs."
Food Inspection Decision.
Tiie following bullet inn l.-Mlcd by
the Department or Agncultum may
he of interest, to manufacturers deal
ers and consumers, as t'ie same rules
rrnlv to different classes of
manufactured good on I he markets.
From the tenor of many inquiries
received in this Department it ap
pears that many persons suppos
that the answers to iuquiries addrest
to this Department, either in letters
or in n.ib ishec decisions, nave me
force and effect of the rules and re
gulations for the enforcement of the
food and drugs.act of June 30, 1900
The following are illustrations of the
inquiries received by th's Depart
ment:
Must we stamp all goods as con
forming to the drug and food law,
whether they have alcohol and nar
cotics therein, or not?
On a brand of salad oil, which is a
winter-strain cotton -seed oil, can it
be sold under the brand of salad til
or must it state that it is cotton seed
oil?
It seems highly desirable that an
erroneous opinion of this kind should
be corrected. The opinions or deci
sions of this Department do not add
anything to the rules and regulations
nor take anything away from them
They therefore are not be considered
in the light of rtilcs and regulations,
On the other hand, the decisions and
opinions referred to express the at
titude of this Department in relation
to the interpretation of the law and
the rules and regulations, and they
are published for the information of
officials of the Department who may
be charged with the execution of the
law and especially to acquaint manu
facturers. jobbers, and dealeis with
the attitude of this Department i
thtse matters. Thej are therefor
issued more in an advijory than in
mandatory spirit. It is clear that if
the manufacturers, jobbers, and
dealers interpret the rules and r
gelations, in the same munner as they
are interpreted by this Department
and follow that interpretation
in
their business transactions, no pro
secution will lie against them.
needs no argumeut to show that the
Secretary of Agriculture must him
self come to a decision in every case
before a prosecution can be initiated
since it is on his report that the dis
trict attorney is to begin a prosecu
tion for the enforcement or the nro
visions of the act.
In so far as possible it is advisable
that the opinions of this Departuien
respecting the questions which arise
may be published. It may ofte
occur that the opinion of tnis De
partment is not that of the manufac
turer, jobber, or dealer. In this case
there is no obligation testing upo
the manufacturer, jobber, or deale
to follow the line of procedure mark
ed out or indicated by the opinion of
this Department. Each one is en
titled to his own opinion and inter
pretation and to assume the respon
sibility ot acting in harmony there
with.
It may be proper to add that in
reaching opinions and decisions on
these cases the Department keeps
constantly-in view the two grea
purposes of the food and drugs act
namely, to prevent misbranding an
to prohibit adulteration. From the
tenor of the correspondence received
at this Department and from the
oral hearings which have been held
it is evident that an overwhelming
majority of the manufacturers, jobb
ers, and dealers of this country are
determined to do their utmost to
conform to the provisions of the act
to support it in every particular
and to acced to the opinions of this
Department respecting its construc
tion. It is hoped, therefore, that
the publication of the opinions and
decisions of the Department will lead
to the avoidance of litigation which
might arise due. to- decisions which
may be reached by this Department
indicating violations of the act, vio
lations which would not have occurr
ed bad the opinions and decisions of
the Department been brought to the
attention of the offender.
BLENDED WHISKIES.
Many letters are received by the
Department making inquiries con-.
cerning the proper method of label
ing bieuded whisky. Manufacturers
are anxious to know the construction
placed by the Department upon this
particular part of the food and drugs
act of June 30, 1900, and to ascertain
under what, condition the words
blended whisky" or "whiskies" may
e used. J im loi owing quotauoi
mm one oi ' ni-se lei r.ers presents a
particular case of a definite eriarao-
4
l.'f.
On account of the uncertainty pre
vailing in our trade at me present
t
me as to how to proceed under the
pure food law and and regulations
egarding what will le considered o
blend of whiskies, I am taking the
iberty of expressing to you to-day
two samples of whisky made up as
follow":
Sam pl A contains 51 per cent of
Bourbon whisky and 49 per cent of
neutral spirits. In this "ample a
small amount, of burnt, sui'ar is used
for coloring, and a small amount of
prune juice is used for flavoring,
neither of which increases the volume
to any great extent.
Sample B contains 51 per cent of
neutral spirits and 49 per cent of
Bourbon whisky. Hurnt sugar is
used for coloring, and prune juice is
used for flavoring, neither of which
increases the volume to any great
extent.
I have marked these packages
'blended w' iskies" and want, you-
rulinL' as to whether it is nroppr to
thus brand and label such goods.
Mv inouirv is for the purpose of
guiding the k rge manufacturing in
terestj in the trade that I represent.
In a subsequent letter from the
lame writer the following additional
statement is made:
The reasou for wanting your d?-
cision or n.lit g in this matter is just
this: No house in the trade can
afford to put out goods and run the
risk of seizure and later litigation by
the Government on account of the
odium that would be attached in fight
ing the food and drugs ac t.
The question presented is whether
neutral spirits may be added to Bour
bon whisky in varying quantities,
colored and flavored, and the result
ing mixture be labeled "blended
whiskies." To permit the use of the
word "whiskies" in the described
mixture is to admit' that flavor and
color can be added to neutral spirts
and the resulting mixture be labeled
"whisky." The Department is of
opinion that the mixtures presented
can not legally be labeled eithe
"blended whiskies" or "blended
whisky" ,The use of the plural of the
word "whisky" In the first case
evidently improper ror the reason
that there is only one whisky in the
mixture. If neutral spirit, also known
as cologne spirit, silent spirit, or
alcohol, be diluted with water to
proper proof for consumption and
artificially colored and artificially
flavored, it does rot, become a whisky,
but a "spurious imitation" thereof,
not entirely unlike that defined in
section 3244, Revised Statutes. The
mixture of such an imitation with a
genuine article can not be regarded
as a mixture of like substances within
the letter and intent rf the law.
Antidote for Socialism.
If socialism is the undesirable out
growth of prosperity (and certainly
socialism Is flourishing amid the
greatest prosperity that any people
has ever enjoyed) then its antidote
lies in the repeal of the Dingley Tariff,
the opening of our ports to foreign
goods, the levying of Tariff and in
ternal duties for revenue and the re
sumption of the conditions which ob
tained from 1903 to 1907 and rt other
periods in American history when
Free-Trade knighthood was in flower.

All Stand Pat on the
Japanese Question.
Washington, Docember 3. The
members of the California delegation
exhibit some uneasiness regarding
the President' attitude in his mes
sage, which will be read to Congress
to-morrow, on the Japanese question.
Hayes declares that the treaty pro
visions do not touch the point at
issue and that the Japanese have no
ground for complaint. Moreover he
points to the following treaty clause:
"It is, however, understood that
tne stipulations in this and the pre
ceding article do not in any way
affect the laws, ordinances or regu
lations with regard to trade, the im
migration of laborers, police oud
public security which are in affect or
which may hereafter be enacted in
itlier of the two countries."
"That seems to cover the case
pretty well," said Hayes today after
the sessi n of the House. "I main
tain that, the Japanese have no
educational rights at oil in this
country."
The Calfornia delegation In Con
gress stand as a unit on the ques
tion," said . Perkins. "I've heard
morn nbout the alleged friction with
the Japanese since I came on to
Washington than before I left the
Coast. . The whole thing is greatly
exaggerated. What San Francisco
is doing is no more a violation of the
treaty than Is the enforcement of
the quarantine or vaccination laws.
"I don't believe we have over 100
Japanese children under 10 years of
age. Most of the pupils are youths
from 15 to 25. It is nothing more
than right and just to prohibit their
attending school with young children.
The Japs are too cocky, but I dpn't
think there s any fear of war. The
treaty does not provide for social and
family recognition.
"Whatever is done T have coufi-
df-nro the State Department and
President will not con true this as n
violat'iim of the tivaty either in letter
or spirit.
Mary Congressmen were inter
viewed on the question and were
most chary about expressing an
opinion, as the question seems sure
to come before Congress. Senators
Tillm in and Rayner uphold C ilifornia.
Others insist that war talk is being
fomented in the European press.
Representative Kahn of California
said he does not think the California
delegation will take immediate steps
to push any legislation affecting the
Japanese. He said that the Califor
nia delegation probably will hold a
meeting within two weeks for the
discussion of the situation and doubt
less will act as a unit in cuso decision
is reached to urge the passage of ony
special measure. Tws Japanese ex
clusion bills, ine by Representative
McKinlay, of Californ'a, and the
other by Representative Hayes, of
California, are now pending in Con
gress.' Representative Needham, of Cali
fornia, said that he believes the pre
sent agitation will gradually die out
and the situation will quietly srttle
itself. S. F. Chronicle.
A Bussiness Man
Stirred Up.
Occasionally a practical business
man and Protectionist gets stirred
up by the amazing fact that people
supposed to be endowed with or
dinary common sense should unite in
organized warfare against their
country. Then the writes a letter
to the American Economist express
ing astonishment at the state of
things. The following is a case in
point: ..
No one ever heard before in any
country of aj Intelligent people, sup
posedly so at least, warring upon
their own prosperity. The very
thing we all wanted, the thing all
nations want, the dream ot all peo
ple success, prosperity, wealth, in
dustry here we have it, and yet
there are those among us who by
their stupid ignorance and blind par
tisan zeal would do away with all this
send us back to tin days when we
were dependent upon Europe tor
everything but our food, and all our
little earnings went abroad to pay
for things twentyfold more profitable
to the manufacturer abroad than our
agricultural products were to us at
home. Our pound of cotton, sold to
Europe for 10 cents, came back to
us manufactured in a day over there,
costing us in many instances 15.
Where has this $1.90 balance gone
to? It is left in Europe? We pay
then 14.90 for what co-.t them 10
cents, all we got out of it.
Why is Europe rich? Why we were
poor before the Tariff? This accounts
for it. Can we not see? Are we blind
to the commonest horse sense?Are we
going to make stupid fools of ourselves
again? We ought to be thrown from
a great Tarpeian rock if with the
facts so plain before us we commit
this hari harl again. American Economist.
