Senator Mason's speeh In tho Senate upon
the subject of pure fcod embtaccM a clear
statement of tho danger to which tho pub-
nc health Is exposed from alum baking pow
uera.
The commltteo on manufactures were some
time ago directed to investigate food adul
terations, and at numerous sessions In the
principal cities accumulated a volume of tes
timony upon the mibjeet from the bes"t In
formed parties nnd highest scientific author
ities In tho country.
One of the greatest sources of danger to
our foods, the committee stated In their re
port, exists In nlum baking powders. The
committee found the testimony, they say, ;
overwhelmingly condemnatory of the use of
alum In baking powders, and iccommend that
such i no be prohibited by law.
Senator Mason, discussing the report of '
tho committee and the cevcral bills Intro
duced to carry tho recommendations of the
committee Into effict, said:
Alum WiiulutPl) t'nllt for I'ooil.
When we made this report we made It
based on the evidence before us, and the
evidence Is sknply or helming. I do not
care how big a lobby there may be hero for
tho alum baking powder. I do not care how
many memorials they publish, there Is no

In many cases if the gentleman will read
the evidence, some of tho physicians say
' .
they can trace cases In their own practice
there nro diseases of the kidneys due to the
perpetual use of nlum in their dally bread.
I want to give the senate an Idea of tho
class of men we have called. They are tho
leading scientists from every college of the
United States that we could get hold of.
We had open doors and no witness ever
came before that commltteo In the twelve
mouths we were hearing evidence but who
was permitted to testify.
Tho leading physicians of the world say
that cream of tartar Is n pure, natural,
healthy fool product. It Is a product of the
Rrape. and when It Is put In solution In
tho bread with soda. If there is a residuum
left it does not hurt tho stomach, and it
does not go Into nor Injure the brain or tho
blood or tho kidneys.

It has alwaa been toy own Impression that
alum baking powder, (a Injurious, but t
wanted to bring It out nnd make It em
phatic, If tho proof sustains that position.
Mr. Mason I quite agree with the sena
tor. It Is claimed that there Is not a country
In Kurope that does not prohibit the uso of
alum. Certainly three or four of the leading
countries of Kurope '.o which I have had tny
attention railed prohibit the use of alum In
baking powder.

Mr. Mason Yes: I say emphatically. ye;
that tho weight of the evidence is th .t when

Two young Indians named John America
and William Crazy Bull have for month.1
been struggling for favor at the bauiU ot
a coy Sioux maiden named Jullu Crooked-

tive operations to a close temporarily by
going on a visit to relatives on the Rosebud
reservation. There she met and fell a vic

brave named Ualnnatur. In a short time
she was compelled to return lo her homo 011

Little l'roiert Left Open Now on the
Yankton ltriri- all. in.
MITCHBLL, S. D.. May 27. (Special. )-
Throe months ago there was about 10,000
acres of government land on the Yankton
reservation which was open to hemcutead
entry, but a wonderful change has taken
place In the quantity of land that Is now on
tho market. There has been no great boom
lu tho llling of this land, but a stuidy In
crease over the preceding months, nnd at
tho 'presc-tit time there Is but a handful of
land left for future eettlera. Since the fri
homestead bill has been signed by tho pres
ident tho land has be-en rapidly taken up
and as an example of the deslro to take
up the reservation land there were twulvo
persons yesterday who made filings for
homesteads, among them being several
women. Tho opening of the Milwaukee rail
road Into Charles Mix county, which em
braces a portion of the reservation, ban had
a good deal to do with the taking dp of the
lands. Uegister Foster of the United States
land otllce states that at tho present time
thoro nro only about 1.500 acres of In.-.d left
ou tho reservation, and of this amount there
are but six full quarter sections available,
tho balanco being cut up Into forty ami
elgbty-acro tractui At tho present rate nf
taking land thorn will be no acnit land
on this reservation within tho next week,
although Mime of tho forty nnd eighty-acre
tracts will bo left, ns tho genciat rule h, for
tho land to be hold In large tracts, n smaller
tract being of no be-nedt to anybody for
farming puricrH.
Tho reservation was opened to the public
for filing flvo years ago this month and even
at that timo thero was no roii.t.iI ri'sh for
the laud. On tho ilrst day that the hnd
olllco here wa3 opened to revive lUii'S3 on
tho reservation there were hut s'xty-seven
quartern taken up. tho first iillng being that
of n weman. Tho second day there wero
only thirty-seven and for several weeks the
settlers came straggling In for land. Slnco
then the proceduro has been much the same.

PIERUK. S. D., May 27. (Special.) The
Populist, tho organ of that party in this
city, has given a hint of one of the cam
palgn assertions which will be shouted from
the platform this fall in announcing that
Statu Treasurer Schamber is allowing money
to pllo up In the bond fund, which Is doing
nobody any good, "unless it Is the treasurer.
Tho facts aro that nono ot the state bonds
aro now duo. or will be due for n number
of years. On the strength of this tho stnta
board made no levy for the bond fund last
year and thero Is no danger of any great
piling up with no taxes collected for tho
fund. The treasurer Is consequently working
to secure holders of paper not duo to allow
It to bo paid, and is succeeding.
Thero Is Just nt present In round numbers
(120.000 In tho bond interest and sinking
fund. Out of this the treasurer must pay
$11,000 semi-annual Interest the Ilrst of
July, Ho has secured tho surrender of $70,
000 of bonds not yet due. which will bo
turned In nftor tho July Interest Is paid
and these two Items will reduce the "piled
up fund" to $12,000. Ho will bo obliged to
meet another semi-annual Interest payment
tho first of next January of $11,000, and this
will leavo $31,000 In that fund. Ho Is now
negotiating for an Issuo of $25,000 of bonds,
which, llko tho others, will not be due for
ten years.

In tho recent wars gunshot wounds havo
proved less serious than formerly. This Is
owing to the uso ot antiseptic dressings
which cause tho parts to heal without mat
uration nnd In much lers time than by tho
old treatmeht. Every family may use n sim
ilar treatment for cuts, bruises and burns,
viz: Chamberlain's Pain Balm. It nets on
tho same principle as tho antiseptic drem
Ings of the nrmy surgeons nnd Is tho best
homo treatment that can bo given such In
juries. It causes thorn to heal quickly nnd
without maturation. It also allays tho pain
of a burn or scald nlmost instantly. It la
most widely known, however, as a euro for
rheumatism.
