DO YOU KNOW
WHAT WHITE LEAD IS r
Its Chief Use and a Method of Deter
mining Good from Bad Explained.
While Lead is the standard paint
material all over the world. It is made
by corroding metallic lead into a white
powder , through exposing it to the
lumps of weak acetic ncid and car
bonic acid gas ; this jo\\'der is then
ground and mixed with linseed oil ,
making a thick paste , in which form
it is packed and sold for painting pur
poses. The painter thins it down to
the proper consistency for application
by tlie addition of more linseed oil.
The above refers , of course , to pure ,
genuine Wnite Lead only. Adulterated
: iud fake "White Lead. " of which there
: uv nimy brands on the market , is
generally some sort of composition
i'ontaiuing only a percentage of white
lead sometimes no White Lend at all ;
in such stuff , barytes or ground rock ,
l-lialk , nnd similar cheap sub. tances
ire used to make bulk and imitate the
ipjiearance of pure White Lead.
There is. however , a positive test by
ivhich the purity or impurity of White j r
Lcd : ; UKiv be proved or exposed , before j
minting with it. r
The blow-pipe flame will reduce pure j' '
ivhite lead to metallic lead. If a supj j
; > osed white lead be thus tested , and it j !
: > nly partially reduces to lead , leaving . '
* residue , it is proof that something !
; Ise was there besides white lead. I *

Was the editorial written for the Penn
sylvania railroad , or did the Pennsylva
nia railroad just happen to stumhle on to
the editorial ? Who owns Leslie's Week
ly ? Is it not worth while for the reader
to find out who stands behind thw-e ma&-
xines that assault the government , the
Congress and the Legislature ? Whose
knife is it th.it is stabbing out of the
dark ? What conscience , what character ,
what reputation stands hack of the edi
torial in Leslie's Weekly ? If we knew
the controlling force \v& could better
weigh the words and the above is only a
sample of what is .now going on in this
country.
The press that ought to be the avenue
through which information reaches the
pu ; ! ic has hi mlny cases become the Vv"-
hicle for the spread of misinformation
and for \eilei ! attacks upon tho'-e who
woild enact legislation just to the masses.
A Pertinent
The New York World prints under tht
headline. "Three Questions for Mr. Bry
an. " the following editorial :
"The Nebraska convention having
adopted Mr. Bryan's platform and in
dorsed Mr. Bryan for President , the
World repeats the three questions which
Mr. Bryan has no * yet answered :
"What Stare did you lose in 1SOJ (
which you could carry in IDOSV
"What electoral votes did you lose in
190f which you could win in HlftS ?
"What elements of dissatisfaction and
discontent did you fail to arouse then
which you could successfully appeal to
' *
now ?
Lt would be much more to the point if
the Xcw York World would answer , for
the benefit of its readers , the single ques
tion : "What is the extent of the financial
interest held by Joseph I'ulitxer. owner of :
the World , in railroad companies and in
great corporations commonly known as
trusts ? "
The answer to this question might un
cover the special interests for which the
Xew York World speaks.

Leslie's Weekly is one of the papers
iliat habihially seek to deceive and mis
lead the public. It recently published an

Threshold. " nnd th" article has been pub-
i's' d in ! h < - O.Ticial Time Table ( No.
'J32j of the Pennsylvania railroad ( which
went i'lto e.Tect in February ) .
Leslie'.s Vt'eekly condemns the Sherman
anti-trust law aid dec-lares it a failure :
it finds fault with the pn sng ' of that
lav/ and claims that it was enacted un
der pressure of "p'lblir clamor. " It
complains of the "denunciation of the
wealthy" ard de'-hre tht the railroads
" \vnit to ! e s ire that for some simple

It calls ths ? asj oMicv decisions "ont-
of soothinir his wounded feelings ? If it
is not mere buncombe then why does not
the Republican Congress , now in session ,
proceed along the proposed line ?
It is "to-morrow" for tariff revision :
"to-morrow' ' for currency and bankinir
reform : "to-monow" for vigorous and
effective prosecution of trust magnates.
And to the negro with respect to the
proposition referred to it is "to-morrow" '
an , ! it will be "to-morrow" forever and
forever , because it is well understood that
the Republican party would not dare to
reduce the representation as suggested.
