If a bombshell had been exploded in the navy department, it would not have caused more consternation than the excitement that prevailed when the news arrived that England's three new fighting ships, which were reported to be nothing more than armored cruisers, were to be first-class battleships more powerful even than the famous Dreadnaught. It was this latter named terror of the sea, that caused congress last winter to authorize the construction of a warship as powerful as that new English fighting machine and now Secretary Bonaparte has become so deeply interested in the reports about the new English vessels that he has directed the Board of Construction of the Navy, composed of several of the highest ranking naval officers in Washington, to investigate. The new battleships have less displacement than the Dreadnaught but according to reports and predictions, which seem authentic, they will make greater speed. They will carry eight twelve-inch guns, having as great a broadside fire as the Dreadnaught. Until the board of construction thoroughly considers the new type of English battleship, gathering what information it can about the vessels, it cannot be predicted what the American navy will do. The conclusions of the board when visiting the dent in which President Roosevelt ed this week. It was also fact that the President so well known and is so recognized by people on the Washington.

They will carry eight twelve-inch guns, having as great a broadside fire as the Dreadnaught. Until the board of construction thoroughly considers the new type of English battleship, gathering what information it can about the vessels, it cannot be predicted what the American navy will do. The conclusions of the board will doubtless be made the subject of a report to the secretary, which is likely to figure prominently in congress this winter when the matter of building new ships is taken up. The great Congressional Library is growing at a rapid rate, yet its growth is not as fast as the government officials would like to see. Congress appropriates only $90,000 a year for the purchase of new and valuable books but this does not begin to buy many of the volumes that are badly needed. The library at the present time has 1,500,000 volumes, compared to the 2,000,000 books in the library of Great Britain and the 3,000,000 volumes in that of France. In speaking with your correspondent, Librarian Putnam said: Since printing was invented there have been some thirteen millions of books printed. Hundreds and thousands of these are not in existence and as many more are so rare that the government library cannot compete for them with the rich men of the country. The millionaires can afford to pay more for the books than we can with our limited appropriations. We do not seek the rare ones so much as those that are useful and our aim is to secure a collection serviceable to the people of the United States. We make a specialty of American works and shall continue to do so. More trouble is brewing for the meat packers.

So unteers have appeared. People of New York making a strenuous effort the attendance of Presidents velt for two consecutive Jamestown Exposition These are New York day Fulton day. The Fundament association is trying the dates so adjusted that follow the other, thus greater interest in the most citizens of the Empire is understood that they will attend the opening position, but those intl New York's share are and he also be present on the tinctively New York day the last two weeks there more delegates from all pountry, seeking the attentive president at dedicationings and various celebrations in any other two weeks or present administration. More trouble is brewing for the meat packers. Chicago commission merchants are in Washington to lodge a protest with President Roosevelt against the refusal of Western express companies to carry the carcasses of calves killed by farmers. It is claimed that the packers will not take the meat from the express companies because it does not bear a government stamp. The individual farmers have not the facilities for government as enjoyed by the packers and the refusal of the express lines to handle this home killed product involves the loss of thousands of dollars to the farmers. Before calling upon the President the friends of the farmer visited the Agricultural Department and saw Secretary Wilson who informed them that there is no ruling in the meat inspection regulations to warrant such action on the part of the carrying companies. President Roosevelt gave them every consideration and promised to have the matter remedied at the earliest possible moment. The packers will probably be called to account for unjust discrimination. The teeth of a President require the services of a dentist just the same as do those belonging to other mortals but the ordinary citizen rarely, if ever, has an experience New York's share are and he also be present on their tinctively New York day; the last two weeks there more delegates from all p country, seeking the attention the president at dedication ings and various celebrations in any other two weeks o present administration. Secretary Wilson of the D of Agriculture has promulgated regulations under which they enacted pure food and drug enforced. The commission to prepare the regulations of Dr. H. W. Wiley of the a department; Dr. S. N. D. N department of commerce and James L. Gerry of the t department. In a letter to the secretary several departments they agree on the regula unanimous. To these regular Secretaries Wilson, Metcalf have given their approval. The section of the regulation specifying the labeling of pr quires that five ingredient package shall be stated so purchaser may know precise is buying. In the matter of coloring quirement is made that no known to be deleterious health shall be used by man This regulation applies with lar force to the manufacture. Adulterations, particularly is prohibited, but standard visiting the dentist like that which President Roosevelt figurated this week. It was all due to the fact that the President's carriage is well known and is so easily recalled by people on the streets of Washington. Leaving the White House about noon, the president entered the office of a fashionable stall on K street. Only a few men saw him enter the house but many minutes passed before the crowd increased to a large number at the end of an hour, when Roosevelt appeared, the street blocked with pedestrians, bicycles and vehicles of all descriptions. He greeted with an echoing steppeed quickly into the car and was soon at his desk in White House office. With the intention of the president every-ever seemed to enjoy the occasion. He appeared to be troubled by an unpleasant memory. Pennsylvania avenue has the scene of many notable proms and parades but none more or unique than that which took place next week, when the most veteran of the Union Army march by himself from the Monument, located at the foot of the Capitol steps, to Fort Heights, across the Potomac River Virginia, a distance of more than five miles. The distinction of the youngest private enlisted in Union Army, therefore the most veteran, belongs to Abram Angstein, a clerk in the Peninsula. He was but eleven years not be considered adulterated provided they are branded so as to show their actual strength or purity. Poisonous or deleterious preservatives shall only be applied externally and shall be of a kind that will not permeate to the interior of the product, and such preservative must be of such character that, until removed, the food products are inedible. Misbranding of food or drug products is guarded against particularly. The label on every product must bear the name of the product, the place of manufacture and must show whether the article is a compound, mixture or blend, and must designate the ingredients and proportions in cases of drugs and foods. The use of any false or misleading statement, design or device on the label is specifically prohibited. Champagne is required to be labeled American champagne, or California champagne, so that the purchaser, while he knows that he is getting a certain kind of wine, knows also that the wine is made in America, and not in France. The regulations apply to other products in a similar way. It was the effort of the commission to secure to the purchaser of any food product absolute purity. Defeat this Amendment The electors of the State of California will be confronted at the coming election with one of the most impudent jobs ever devised by corporation greed and cunning. This nefarious scheme is to be unfolded with extraordinary effrontery in the form of Senate Constitutional Amendment No. 20, adopted by the legislature March 10, 1905, (Statutes of California, 1905, page 1071) as follows: March by himself from the Monument, located at the foot of the Capitol steps, to Fort Heights, across the Potomac in Virginia, a distance of more than five miles. The distinction of the youngest private enlisted in Union Army, therefore the first veteran, belongs to Abram Langstein, a clerk in the Penice. He was but eleven years when he enlisted in Co. I, Sixty-seventh Regiment, Indiana Volunteers, though he gave his age as four. The unique part of the "parallle be that this veteran pro-wo beat his drum, which he during the Civil War, continuum from the time he starts until lives at the end of the route because he desires to cele-ron this odd way the forty-anniversary of his enlistment.ims he can beat a drum a number of hours than any living and offers a wager for him to parade with him under the conditions. So far no vol- have appeared. State of New York state are a strenuous effort to secure attendance of President Roosevelt two consecutive days at the town Exposition next year. Are New York day and Robson day. The Fulton Mon-association is trying to have its so adjusted that one will the other, thus assuring a interest in the movement bygens of the Empire state. It understood that the president send the opening of the Ex-but those interested in York's share are anxious that be present on the two dis-ily New York days. During two weeks there have been delegates from all parts of the city seeking the attendance of resident at dedications, open- various celebrations, than other two weeks during the administration. The electors of the State of California will be confronted at the coming election with one of the most impudent jobs ever devised by corporation greed and cunning. This nefarious scheme is to be unfolded with extraordinary effrontery in the form of Senate Constitutional Amendment No. 20, adopted by the legislature March 10, 1905,(Statutes of California, 1905, page 1071) as follows: "Section Seven of Article Twelve of the Constitution is hereby amended so as to read as follows: "Section 7. The franchise or charter of any corporation now or hereafter existing under the laws of this state may be extended at any time prior to the expiration of its corporate existence, for a period not exceeding fifty years from the date of such extension, by the vote or written consent of stockholders representing two-thirds of its capital stock, or by two-thirds of the members thereof." The remainder of the proposed amendment recites the procedure necessary for making the life of corporations perpetual. There are many sound reasons why this corporation measure should not be approved by the votes of the people of the state, for its purpose is to endow corporations with privileges foreign to the intent of the laws governing corporations. It would deprive the state of the fees for re-incorporating, and thus wipe out a source of considerable income to the state, raising the tax in proportion to the loss, and placing the burden on the taxpayers. The Civil Code of California fixes the extreme term of existence of corporations at fifty years. Now it is proposed by some corporations to nullify this wise provision of the law by making the life of corporations perpetual at will. The real motive underlying the proposed constitutional amendment is, however, to enable factions in corporations to evade winding up the affairs of their corporations at the expiration of the term of existence, and thus to manipulate the surplus or accrued and undistributed profits which by all right belong to every member or stockholder as well as to the majority. The whole policy of the law respecting corporations has been, and still is, to limit the period of their corporate existence to some reasonable term of years, except of course in some of these Mature Food and Drugs Mary Wilson of the Department of Agriculture has promulgated the laws under which the recently mature food and drug act, will be enacted. The commission appointed by the regulations consisted of W. Wiley of the agricultural department; Dr. S. N. D. North of the department of commerce and labor, Mrs L. Gerry of the treasury department, to the secretaries of the departments they say their interest on the regulations was thus. To these regulations, also, Mrs Wilson, Metcalf and Shaw have their approval. Section of the regulations rests on the labeling of products resembling five ingredients of the shall be stated so that the may know precisely what he matter of coloring, the result is made that no ingredient shall be deleterious to human health be used by manufacturers. Regulation applies with particularity of drugs, tested, but standard drugs will ensure their corporations at the expiration of the term of existence, and thus to manipulate the surplus or accrued and undistributed profits which by all right belong to every member or stockholder as well as to the majority. The whole policy of the law respecting corporations has been, and still is, to limit the period of their corporate existence to some reasonable term of years, except of course in some of these so-called "incorporating states" where the laws seem to be made by the corporations and for the corporations. Any lawyer can point out the risks of enlarging corporate powers in California, and most important of all, the real and grave dangers resulting from corporation tinkering with our constitution, thereby debasing the organic law of California, which, obviously, under such sinister influences must sooner or later become a mere tool of corporation craft and chicane. In the present corporation assault on the constitution is seen the beginning of this trend of events, and it must be stopped by the solid vote of the people against it. The people of California must be instructed on this serious question. The danger must be pointed out, and the only medium of doing so is the press of California, which always rises nobly to civic duty, moved and inspired by sincere love for our state and its institutions.
