A VETERAN djstiller of Illinois says

A VETERAN distiller of Illinois says
that the country to-day, with popula-
ton of 5O,OOO,OOO, drinks less whisky
than it did 30 years ago, when the pop
ulation was only half as large, and this
falling off he attributes chiefly to the in
creased consumption of lager beer,
which he denominates "the worst enc
my whisky has to face in the United
States to-day" He also advises the
friends of the trade not to fight the tenn
perance movement openly, conceding
that "the moral and religious sentiment
of American society is against the
traffic." and islands like stone wall
to confront it," He advises the liquor
men to go along quietly, obeying the
laws and seeking to conciliate the oppo-
sition rather than to antagonize it, and
thinks that thus the business will go on
with little disturbance and annoyance.

r PITTSBURGH is just now realizing the
results of ring rule in relation to its
water works. Although millions OF
money have been actually spent and an
additional debt of five millions piled up
in order to provide an efficient water
supply, the city is now dependent upon
the private pumps of the large manu-
factories to prevent disastrous water
famine. The only ray of comfort lett
to the thirsty inhabitants is that there
are citizens who are public-spirited
enough to place their private machin-
ery at the public's service in its extrem-
ity. But we have not heard that Pitts
burgh has deposed her bosses yet. She
can suffer thirst and be burdened with
debt, but as to doing without her Stall
yart rulers, that is not to be thought OF.

NEW CASTLE COUNTY on account OF
buildiDga new court house, aud re.
building St. Augustine and the Elev-
enth street bridges, has now the largest
debt she ever had before, and for which
high rates of interest is paid. Berks
county, Pa, having large Indebtedness
has just determined to refund it at a
lower rate of intereSt-four per cent
and notice to this effect has been given
to the holders of the present bonds. The
abundance Of money for investment
and the good credit of Berks county,
makes this step a very possible one
and our neighbors are to be cor yrat,,.
lated upon the better prospects that
Loom mp before then. Now vhv can.
MT New Castle county do the same
thing? Our Banks contain a deposit
OF about S3,000,000, awaiting invest.
mert and which is bringing no interest
to the deposit ors. Four per cent inter
est is better than no interest, and we
have no doubt that the whole indebted.
ness of New Castle county could be
readily refunded at four per cent inter.
est This would not only allow rea
sonable profit to the holders Of bonds
but it would relieve the taxpayers OF
the county who are complaining of the
imposition Of onerous taxes. We would
Recommend this subject to the close
attention of the Levy Court of thi.
county.

II repors are true the men who run
the Democratic party in New Castle
County have discovered new TRICK
which they intend to put into operation
to euabie them to carry the county at
the next election by depriving Republi-
cans of their votes. 1t is now said that
orders have been issued to the County
collectors to close their duplicates and
receive no more taxes after the 9th
instant, which is the time for closing
the assessments. This may possibly be
an idle rumor, and we hope it is, but it
ia hard to tell what the Democracy
would not resort TO, to carry the coun'
|ty. 1t may be asked if thisis in accord
ance with law. To this we may be per-
mitted to reply, that necessity knows
no law, and though there may be no
law in favor of closing the tax dupli-
Gates at the time named, there may be
no law against it, and that is sufficient
for political drowning men who are
grasping at straws to keep from SINK
ing. If such course is pursued 1t Will
deprive not less than thousand Re-
publicans of their votes at the next
election, and thereby insure the election
of the Democratic ticket in the County
as we'll as the State.
1t is true that in the next twelve days
every Republican in the county could
pay their taxes, but there is draw.
back in the way. Already it is said
that some of e:country collectors can
not be found, and Of course no taxes
can be paid unless collector can he
found to receive them. The collector OF
St. Georges Hundred, it is said, has
positively refused 10 accept. any taxes
except from the person who owes the
taxes, and the recent failure to convict
lin the United States Court for violations
of the election laws has so tar removed
all fear of successful prosecution that
the Federal election laws will be violated
with the utmost IMMUNITY. Even pow
ers of attorney to pay taxes which
answered such good purpose in some
places at the last election will be re-
fused now. There seems to be- no way
by which taxes can be paid except in
person, ard if the 9th of this month Is
to be the limit for the payment OF taxes
it will simply be impossible for all who
have not paid to do it in the few inter-
vening days between now and then
rendered only impossible by collectors
keeping themselves out of the way. In
view of these facts it is very important
that every Republican in the county,
who has not paid already, will begin
Immediately to make efforts to find the
collectors and compel them to receive
their taxes BY this means the most of
these who have. not yet paid may sue.
coed, and if the collectors carry out the
arranged programme to detraud the
people out Of their votes we are amongst
those who believe that there are enough
honest Democrats who will resent such
action, and will more than make up to
the Republicans the number unjustly
defrauded cut of their votes. In the
mean time let every Republican in the
county put forth every possible effort
to get all their taxes paid by the 18th,
and then it will make. no difference
whether the collectors close their dupli.
Gates on that date or net.

BEADING Railroad Election.

There never mas been such deter.
mined contest for the Presidency of
railroad, as that which resulted last
Friday, in the election of Mr.. Gowen,
over Mr.. Bond, for the presidency of
the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad
Company. The voting commenced last
Monday and closed last Friday, Mr..
GOwen being victorious. The fight has
been a persistent and bitter one. The
strength of Mr. Bond, who has been the
president of the road for the past year
only, was in the immense amount of
stock held in England, by the Mccall
monts, by whose influence Mr.. Gowen
was ousted from the presidency he had
held for so many years and which he
probably would have continued to hold,
but for the financial troubles that embar
raised the road between the years 1873
and 1880, and threw it financially into
the hands of receiver. From the time
he was superseded in the presidency by
Mr.. Bond, Mr.. Gowen has fought with
indomitable spirit to resume his posi-.
ton. He wrote articles in defense OF
his policy; he made speeches, travelled
several times to England, where he ad.
dressed the stockholders of the road
and kept up an inoessant fire upon the
McCalmonts and tie man OF their
choice, vMr. Bond. The great excite
ment that was aroused by this warfare
between the rival interests eliminated
q we have already stated, on Friday,
in the triumph of Mr.. Gowen, the fnal
counting showing that he had received
two hundred and seventy-twO thousand
votes, against two hundred and
twenty-five thousand votes cast fol
Mr.. Bond. Mr.. Vanderbilt, OF
whom it was said that it was doubted
on which side his own forty thousand
votes would be cast, and the large mum
Der Of proxies of his friends would be
cast, threw them for Mr.. Gowen, who
also obtained the greater part of the
votes of the small stockholders with
whom. his popularity, it seems, had
never diminished. The result of the
election, so far as Wilmington is con.
cerned, is as gratifying as could be de,
sired, because it is looked upon as a
movement in favor of the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad and the construction
of competing line from Baltimore,
through Wilmington to Philadelphia,
and from thence to New York. There
is an increasing desire on the part of
the people on tie line of the old PlliIa.
delphia, Wilmington and Baltimore
Rail road for competing line, and the
great increase of business, which loads
down one line and makes it inefficient
to accommodate the public, must soon
er or later eliminate in the construction
of another road.
