to work to FL the warehouses to the caves,
and thus prepare an over-stock for the
market When the two years expired, and
the market refused the dose prepared for it,
they went up to Washington and begged
either that the tax be taken off or the time
extended. They got an extension by a twist
of the law, but at is expiration were rs badly
off as ever This new probation involved
temporary shipment abroad, but it was
supposed to pay" Such as went TO mar
ket they paid the taxes on but as they
continued to manufacture to considerable
extent the market was still unready. Then
they concluded, in order TO gain more time,
to ship the spirit over to Canada and else
where, for reimportation, and thus escape
taxation But they forgot that Canadian
law regulates the size of packages, and the
spirits came back with 4 rush, and the
United States Government thereupon re-
fused il warehouse privileges. So, between
the Canadian stool and the United States
stool, the distillers and spectators sat
down SO hard that their teeth rat
tied. At one time it was boldly
published abroad they they would
hold the whip over both the great political
parties, and crush the one that refused to
give time, or repeal the tax. But in that
effort they ANONYMOUSLY failed. Even
Democratic House Of Congress did not dare
to bow down to them, though its inclin-
alton was strong to do SO. The threat TO
blot out the party that would not yield
iizzled, and but one thing remains for the
distillcrs to do, and that is TO rumicate
over the fact that special interests cannot
rule i'll this country. Shareholders tried it |
once, and failed King Cotton laid down |
his scepter, and King Liquor must do the !
srmc III politics. The domestic conduct of
this republic is to be CIRCULATED according 10

people, and not to foster this. that or the |
other interest, except so far as the good of !
the whole country demands it.
