Whisky Below Cost.

IL IS subject OF common remark that there
must be some one cheated in the sale of whis-
ky and alcohol. The Excise tax on whisky is
two dOlla-s gallon, and the tax on alcohol four
dollars gallon, yet whisky is often bought
Tor two dollars and ten cents and alcohol for
four dollars and fifteen cents As it takes two
gallons OF whisky to make one of alcohol. it
Will De seen from the prices above stated that
after the Government tax is paid there would
be put ten cents left to pay for the manufacture
ana transportation of gallon of whisky. and
but fifteen cents tor gallon of alcohol But
these articles cannot be produced for such low
ngures. Before the war, when the grain from
wh!ch whisky is distilled was much lower than
1t is now, and when labor of all kinds was
much cheaper, the average price of new whis-
KY was about twenty-six cents gallon. and of
alcohol about fifty 1.-TWO cents. 1t should. of
course, be much heavier noW-say fifty cents
1or the former and dollar for the latter
Add to these figures the Government imposts,
anu we have, as the honest price of whisky
and alcohol, about two dollars and half for
one and about five dollars for the other. Yet
they are frequently sold at the low prices above
stated How this is done it is not easy to un-
derStand, unless there is cheating somewhere
around the board, and one mode of this cheat
ing is being developed in New York by an in |
vestigatiOn of Custom House frauds going on
there. by the terms of the Internal Revenue |
laws any article charged with excise duties is |
entitled to remission of those duties where it |
Is Intended for expectation. This is called |
" drawback j" 1t was under disguise Of this
privilege that the fraud was committed, certain
parties, having large lot of whisky in ware
house, applied for the benefit Of ofdrawback, and |
produced the necessary certificates that their
whisky was shipped on board of vessel bound
Tor foreign port. But all these certificates
ween the owners fthe whisky and certain Gus
toms House officials. Of course, when the
payment Of the Government tax is evaded in
this way, it is easy enough to sell whisky at 81
~ or even at 81 10, and still leave an enormous
profit: This, however, is but one of the ways
IN which the taxes are evaded. 1t seems, to a
observer of such matters. that
The revenue officers should regard all cases of
extremely lowprced whisky as justifying a
suspicion Of fraud. .-Ledger.
