THE "OLEO" LAW Its Definitions Not Sufficiently Ex plicit to Prevent Oleo From Pos ing as Genuine Butter. Friends of the Bogus Article Active in the Late Election in Trying to Defeat Its Enemies. j"Yo Thn Journal BurwtU, Km 45, Part Building, Wtt*hingtn. Washington, Nov. 28.It is very proba ble that congress will be called upon before a great while by the dairy interests of the country, which secured enactment by the last session of the so-called oleo law, to amend the definition of oleo as con tained in that law. A t the time the bill was passed the dairymen were fearful that the definition was not sufficiently clear to protect their industrysubsequen t devel opments have made them certain that this is the case. Under the oleo law the manufacturers of bogus butter are planning systematically to continue their work of deception, and apparently there will be no way of reach ing them, fxcept through an amendment to the law which will make the definiti on of oleo more stringent. This amendment will be discussed in the fifty-eighth con gress, although action may be deferred un til some later time. This condition of affairs makes interest lug the alleged fact that the oleo interests - were back of the candidacy for congress this year of William Lorimer of Chicago, who in the fifty-sixth congress, as a mem ber of the committee on agriculture, ren dered them valuable service. These in terests are also under suspicion of having placed as many obstacles as possible in the . pathway of Representative Tawney of Minnesota, this year in his campaigns for renomination and re-election. Briefly, the oleo program of evading the new law consists in the Introduction of coioring matter into palm oil, and mixing .that oil with cottonseed oil, so as to give oleo a yellow color. I t is said that palm oil will take color easily, and that It will be possible to use jt in the manufacture of oleo under the loosely drawn definiti on of oleo in the new law. It is very certain that the old struggle is to be renewed before a great While, and that congress is again to be the scene of action. Naturally, the oleo people desire to have as many of their friends in the two houses as possible, and as few of their enemies. Mr. Tawney when asked by The Journal man regarding the efforts of the oleo In terests to influence sentiment against him in his district, refused to talk. H e said .that the people of his district were fam iliar with all of the essential features of his campaign this year, and that anything he might say would not add to their en lightenment. H e agreed with the state ment in this article, however, that it evi dently is the intention of the oleo manu facturers to evade the present law, and that In time that Jaw must be made more stric t, so far as its definiti on of oleo i s concerned. THE KRUPP CASE The Vorwaerts Reaffirms Its Charges Against the Deceased Millionair. Berlin. Nov. 28.The Vorwaerts com menting on Emperor William's speech on the day of the funeral of Herr Krupp at Essen says: "While prosecution Is still pending against us and the truth is not judicially yet appertained, the emperor anticipates thee ourt's findings by pronouncing our guilt out of hand. I s it allowed that the crown aO the initiatory stage of a pending case utter a verdict and thereby place the judges in the painful dilemma of either contradicting his majesty or subjecting themselves to the suspicion that their ) judgment was influenced by him? Justce stands above everybody, even above the emperor, and the freedom of the courts Is the life and nerve of every state." The paper adds: "The monarchy i s constltuionally irresponsible. A n adequate answer t o the emperor's speech is pre vented through the lese majeste para graphs." The Vorwaerts in two colums, reaffirms In moderate language the truth of its orig inal charges against the late Herr Krupp and alleges that the evidence rests on the testimony of persons quite above party , passion, personal interest or political hate.

Our American people, who are nervous and overstrained, would never drink cof fee If they knew how well and clear headed they would be without it. "When I was a litt le child," says Miss M. D'Alt of Topeka, Kans., " I com menced the drinking of coffee. Natur ally nervous, it made me as the years went on, a most miserable wretch, always in an unnatural state of excitement. I found, as I grew older, that I would at times stagger as a drunken person. I t was coffee, frol had no desire to drink anything in liquoi'S. M y health was very bad and m y .brother and I wei-e talking of quitting coffee, when I was stricken with typhoid fever. Upon my recovery, my brother wisely allowed me no coffee and said if I wished t o be well again, I must stop its use. ' h , For a number of years cold water wa^ my only drink, but this was poor comfort .until about three years ago, a package of Postum Food Coffee was left at out house. W e prepared i t as directed and found a wholesome, delicious drink more than this, i t has strenghtened me without causing those terrible 'after effects' formerly left upon me by coffee. I recommend Postum to all my friends and in my varied experience I find it a safe drink without effect on the nerves, and the only one whish with me has filled a long-felt want." Many people who have .stopped drink ing coffee because of its effect, on the nerves, will find the pure food drink.

Fort William, Ont., Nov. 28.Stefan Rebbuk, a Russian, "was murdered in a row among the foreign element in the east end of town Wednesday night. H e was attacked by several Galacians. When officers arrived upon the scene it was evident that the case was likely to be more serious than common assault. I n a ditch not f ar from the shack in which Rebbuk and other foreigners were living was a pool of blood and the snow was stained in every direction. A huge club was picked up near by with blood staips on it and human hair adhering to it. I n a shack on a straw filled bunk, covered by a few blankets lay Rebbuk, moaning and muttering in his native language. H e was unconscious and delirious. Rebbuk and his chum, the man who brought the information, lived' together. L.ate at night the chum was called out by a man who to ld him to see to his.friend who was mixed up in a fight. Rebbuk's chum ran out and found sev eral men attacking Rebbuk with 'sticks, stones, knives and an ax. They cleared away and Rebbuk war? taken into the shack in a fainting condition where he lay till morning uncared for. Officers Does and O'Brien went with their informant and on his instructions ar rested several men who were working in the Canadian Pacific freight sheds. Crown Attorney Mills and Magistrate McDougal went to Rebbuk's house t o take a de position if possible. Their trip was i n vain, as the man died shortly before with out having regained consciousness.

JVofc TH Journal J^tcrectic. JXootvt 4a 2*oai Bttliaing, Wathingtoti^ Washington, Nov, 28.Senator Nelson has returned to Washington and will re main during the winter. H e predicts that the session of congress opening Monday will be a busy session, particularly for himself, because of his membership OH the committees on territories and judi ciary.- the former of which will have the consideration of bills to admit the south western territories as states, and the lat ter of the bill to regulate trusts. Senator Nelson said to-day that he believed some thing should be done in the way of legis lation t o regulate trusts, 'althouglf ''he would not discuss the question* of ,,iW.ha.t shape such legislation should take. H e is waiting for the introduction of^the^olll, which will be given careful consideration in the committee. Senator Nelson said he believed there would be no tariff legisla -, tlon this winter. As between the tariff commission- and the investigation of Jfoe tariff question by a joint committee of congress, he said he favored the latter "Such a committee should be composed of republicans only,"" he said,: "It wo^ild therefore have to be organized from mem bers of fach house, revisionists revisionists each being represented on it. I t would have to be unofficial in a way that is, it could not be named by the president or authorized by congress, but would have to be selected by caucuses of republicans in each house. I n this way whatever revision is decided upon, if any, would be recommended by real revision ists and not by wreckers. A bipartizan commission, appointed by the president, would not accomplish anything, a s the democrats on i t would certainly recom mend free trade, and tbe republicans re vision, possibly, but not free trade or 'fair' trade." SHAMROCK ILL'S PROGRESS Everything Possible Being Done to Render Her Speedy. London, Nov. 28.Excellent progress is being made in setting .the frames of the Shamrock III. and everything is ready for running the lead keel. I t is learned that the same plan of bringing the midship frames right down outside the lead of the keey as adopted in the case of the Sham rock II. will be followed in- the new chal lenger. William Fife considers that cling ing lead ballast inside the frames in this fashion permits the use of lighter frames than when the lead is bolted outside in the usual manner. I n order to obviate the possibility of warping the steel frames by the heat of a large amount of molten lead, the ballast will be run in quantities of about a ton daily. The quantity of lead to be used is larger than that of any pre vious challenger, giving further proof that the newobat will have an exceptionally large displacement. From the setting of the fi-ames of the Shamrock III. it is apparent that another novelty is to be introduced. Instead of a level draught the whole length f the keel, the challenger will have a very de cided drawing, considerably more aft than at the forward end of the lead..

NORTH DAKOTA WHITE'S MAJORITY Over 2,000 More Than Two Years Ago and e n a Lighter Vote. BISMARCK, N . D.Official figures from all but three counties in the state have been received by the Bismarck Tribune, and the returns from those are unofficia l l y reported but are correct. The figures show that Governor White's majority i s 14,078, far exceeding the most sanguine expectations o f party, managers.. "The to tal vote was 7,000'less than the totar vote in 1900 and the governor's majority ex ceeds that of two years ago, on a smaller vote, by over 2,000. Congressman Marf shall's plurality this year is 18,600, whiclT is about 5,000 above that of two years ag o. Congressman Spalding's plurality is several hundred less than Marshall's, ow ing to the fact that the latter occupied first place on the ticket. Marshall's total vote was 33,600, Spalding's total vote was 33,300 and Governor White's total vote was 31,800. Every county in the state-but Walsh was carried by Governor White. Official re turns from Walsh county give Cronan a majority of thirty. Ward county is the banner republican majority in the state, giving the republican ticket a majority of 1,312.

Boyce for merly published a weekly newspaper at Lisbon. Ton or twelve years ago he went to Chicago and started the Blade on a small scale. H e has built up the paper until it represents an annual income of hundreds of thousands, and has bought its owner a. magnificent block on Dearborn street and world's goods in plenty. Har rison was formerly state insurance com missioner. The first of the bfindplg cases tried at the term of court at Bismarck resulted In a disagreement. The case was that against Millard Shlbley, charged with vio lating the prohibition law. The jury stood six t o six, and was discharged without coming to an agreement. Patrick Hines, found guilty of an escape from the state penitentiary, was sentenced to two years. There is a peculiar feature of the law with reference to the supreme court suc cession that is apparent again in the case of Judge Cochrane, elected supreme judge at the last election. The law provides that he shall take his seat on Dec. 1, one month before the other state officers 'suc ceed to their offices. The state board of canvassers, however, does not meet until Dec. 9, s o that he will not re ceive his certificate of election until that time. Judge Wallin will sit as supreme judge until the succeeding jurist gets his certificate of election. TELLS OF ANQTHER MURDER Confession of a Condemned Man and Finding of the Body. GRAND FORKS. N .

Lamay re fused, whereupon Hanson, it i s alleged, shot him twice and then put his lariat about his feet and dragged him about twenty rods t o an old well and threw him in.

The fur cap and overcoat had pro tected the body and It was not decayed. A new rancher had bought the place and dug anew well only a few feet away.
