THG WHISKY distilleFies Of New York city
have all been closed up, and they are to be
kept closed until the whisky ceases TO be sold
at prices less than the duty OF two dollars a
gallon. There is no doubt a bad sc: Of men
engaged in the mlnufacture Of whisky in that
city, and doubtless these distilleres ought to
be suspended.
The Herald probably hits the nail on the
head, when It says; "rhe trouble, howeycg,
seems to lie more with the revenue officers
than the distlIlcrs, and If the former were
"suspe ndcd" instead Of the distiIeries, or a
more reliable class Of men put in their places,
there might be no necessity for this sweeping
measure ofputting a stop to a leading branch

Itlsa Characteristic and hopeful feature OF
our times that the people Of different trades
and professions are seeking to combine their
efforts and TO give efficiency to their labors
and industries through organized channels,
with a view to effective and profitable results.
As the world now 10, with its diverse ma.
tionalities aud conflicting interests, what 10
known as free trade Is dream; and so far as
any practical adaptation OF Its theories to the
aetualization OF ends and results, II Is chi.
mera Ab.traetly considered, 1t may be din.
cult to rcfute the logical deductions OF Its ad.
vocates; but the practical realization OF the
theories OF free trade are so far removed Into
the future that many generations must come
and 60 before the world will consent to adopt
in any practical way the teachings Of its phi
losophers and defenders.
We can see, however, foreshadowings Of
the coming time, when nations will accept
that reciprocity In respect to commerce and
the Industries OF different cllmes and nation
nlitles which will ultimate In free trade
throughout the world. But that time is not
yet.
Hon. Arson Burlingame, In his speech the
other day In San Francisco, struck the key
note when he said that the mission he was on
meant progress, the adoption Of international
law, peace, commerce. and the unihcation OF
the human race. He, himself, might pass
away, but the movement would go on, for the
fraternal feeling Of four hundred millions OF
people had begun to fow through the land Of
Washington toward the older nations OF the
world, and It would Aow on forever
This Is the central thought OF great move
ment, and Mr.. Burlingame will do much to
further these enterprises which will ultimately
be crystsllIzed into substantial verities.
wehave in this country many organizations
whose direct tendencies are to a realization of
tsat reciprocity In trade, and that ratification
OF the human race, OF which Mr.. Burlingame
speaks; and we can but wish success to these
Institutions.
