THERE was a bit of breeze in the
United States senate the other day, in
which Senator Beck rather got the
best of Malone. The little Virginian
lost his head and showed temper
while the burly Kentuckian preserved
his equanimity and turned the laugh
on him, saying he did not intend to
fight and did not think that Mr..
Malone ought to show any anxiety in
that line until certain affairs had been
settled in Virginia.

NOTHING demonstrates more fully
the power of the people for public
safety than the result of the late cleo
tions. Their recuperative powers are
wonderful, for it nearly had begun to
appear that the federal power dis
pensed from Washington through
more than a hundred thousand en-
ployes had made powerless public
complaint. The people arose in their
might and haveoverthrown the genii
of rapacitY and of cOrruptiOn.

GERMANY is excluding American
pork from her markets. The reason
assigned by the government for the
prohibitory policy is the alleged pres
ence of trichina in the American arti-
Gle. A delegate gets up in the reich
stag and declares that the exclusion
has more to do with protection than
with sanitary considerations. Posi-
bly, he is correct, and it is more cour-
teous to attribute thriftiness than
in the German authorities.

worth vast deal to him. Had Dor
sey been other than his close politi-
cal friend, or had he been

ton whether the President would
have ever given him this advantage.

have aided the prosecutor instead of
disabling him by unmasking his
means of attack. There was a love

Conference of Cincinnati Distilleries Rela-
tive to the Disruption of the Western
Association-Bad State OF the Trade. II
EICINoINNATI, Nov. 3.-A meeting, informal
in its character, composed Of representa-
tives of all the distilieries in the Cincinnati
district, was held this afternoon to discuss
the situation with reference to the break
in the Western Export association. There
was TO organization and no formal action,
but a long time was spent in very free
interchange of views with reference to the
causes that have led to the rupture of the
association. 1t was suggested that
there were burdens imposed which
made it necessary to keep
the price of whisky too high,
and as result bonded whisky was put on
the market. The chief of these burdens
was to be found in the practical working
of the rule which permitted members to
purchase the capacity of other establish
ments. It was more than limited that some
of the dist1lleries were bought that would
never be running on their own capital,
thus unnecessarily increasing the total
production capacity of the association. It
was also very generally agreed that the
price of capacity should be ten cents in
stead of fifteen. a committee of five was
appointed to investigate the matter of the
purchase of questionable distilleries. Be-
yCnd this no action was taken. Meantime
the association remains disrupted. It's re
strictiOns are not enforced.
