Wilson spoke for two hours and was
followed with the closest attention. and
they gave him three cheers and tiger
at the end. They had scarcely been done
with when Robert Taylor, Prohibition
candidate for congress, replied to
DunnelfS charges that he was lying
about him in regard to his connection
with the whiSky-vinegar law OF 1879.
Mr.. Taylor submitted the
PROOF Or HIS ASSERTION
in the following statement: I'm the
Crawford Journal, of Meadville, Penn,
and of the date of Aug. l, 1882, there
appears a speech of Mr.. Boomer, of
New York, delivered before the West
ern Pennsylvania Cider Manufacturers
association. In the course of his remarks
and in treating of the whiSky-vinegar
law supported at that time by Mr..
Dunnelle as member of congress from
Minnesota. Mr.. Boomer said it would
seem that to obtain the repeal of a
law having so little merit and so much
demerit as this. it would be
only necessary to bring it
clearly before the members
of congress. Tee case was clearly
presented before the ways and means
committee at the first session of the
FOrth-sixth congress, but without any
favorable result. Occupying prOmi-
ne1t position on the committee, we
found Mr.. Dunnell, of Mime
sofa, who seemed to be thor
Oughly welded to the interests of
the whisky-vinegar manufacture that it
was impossible to produce an impress
sion upon him. While many other
members of the committee expressed
themselves as favorable to the repeal of
the law. the influence of Mr.. Dunnell
seemed to be sufficient to defeat any
action in our favor. Every effort on
our part has been met and defeated by
the course which Is controlled by the
Republican members. Mr.. Dunnell has
been as active in his opposition as dur
ing the last year. 1t is largely, if not
entirely, owing to his enmity to Us and
his championship of the whisky thieves
that the Infamous law remains on the
statute books" Ii. &c.
