A Liquor Adulterator Confesses.

Detroit Commercial Advertiser.
At the Manhattan temperance meets
ing in New York, Sunday night, Maj.
Cotton, vice president of the American
Temperance Society, said;
manufactured liquor for % years.
l began the liquor business selling beer
over my fathers bar when was Is
years old. | know all about it and
can make any kind. The adulteration
Of liquor is something you know little
about, and the extent of it will surprise
you. A man stands about as good
chance of being struck by lightning as
to get good article of brandy in New
York. With recti6ed whisky as baN
sis we can initiate any kind of brandy.
The French are more expert than we
are; we begin where they leave off,
and God pity the man who drinks the
stuff we make.
We make champagne which you buy
for the genuine article. 1t costs to
manufacture "a a basket; we sell it for
$40 to dealers. We make the stuff
and put it in our own bottles and
make fac-simile liable of the genuine,
import Spanish corks for the bottles
and French straw and baskets to pack
them in. We want to make genuine
imported wine. We buy one barrel o.
it. Our cooper takes the barrel as 9
pattern and makes ours by it. They
are new and bright. We put then
through staining process and they
come old and rusty and worn, just like
the genuine importation. Thirty-twc
deadly pOisons are used In the manu-
facture of wine. Not one gallon il
fifty sold here ever saw France. w,
send thousands of gallons of whisky t.
France to have them come back to u
something else.
Of all the poisonous liquors in tn,
world Bourbon whisky is the deadliest
Strychnine is only one of the poison
used in it. A certain oil is used in it
manufacture, eight drops of which vii
kill a cat in eight minutes, and dol
in nine minutes. The most temperate
men in New York are the wholesal
dealers. They dare not drink the stui
they sell.

Corn has not made that improvement

of which very little, if any, wheat has
