THE BUB-TREAsURY BILL-THE PRECE.
DENT ESTABLISHED.



constitutional. This is a stereotyped
objection 10 every demand made by
tho farmers and laboring men OF this
country. President u. s. Hall, Of
Che Missouri State Alliance, echoes
the cry as ths Alliance mouthpiece
Of the Missouri Democracy. He says:
Art. I. soC. Of tho United states constitution
defines the powers vested In Congress.
The only one OF Che Subdivisions Of thls sec
tiOn 8 that the advocates Of this sCheme claim
vests tho power In Congress 90 pass such bill 10
th0 nrat, which reads an follows
"Tho Congress shall have power 10 lay and
collect taxes, duties, imports and excIseS, 10
pay tho dobts and provide for tho common de-
fonse and general welfare Of the United States" "
Mr.. Hall starts out TO show that
the bill would be in violation of the
constitution Of the United States, and
quotes Che above section TO sustain
his views. Does anyone discover in
this section any provision with which
this bill would come in Conaict7 AZ
ter quoting the section, Mr. Hall
makes no attempt TO show such con-
hiCt, but contents himself with the
proposition chat such measure is
not authorized. No one has ever
hold that il is especially authorized.
There are very few acts OF Con-
gress that are especially author
lied by the constitution. The franz
ers OF that instrument could hardly
be expected TO fOresee every contin-
genCy OF all coming time and gpeCif-
COlly provide for every form Of needed
Legislation. But is there anything in
tho section quoted or in any other
section Of the constitution that
prohibits such legislation. When il
is affirmed that the measure is un-
constitutional il devOlves upon those
who make the affirmation to show
that there is such a prohibition. This
is not attempted by Mr.. Hall or by
any other writer upon that side OF the
question, whose arguments have come
10 our notice. While il is not claimed
that the section quoted contains any
such prohibition, either expressed or
implied, we may reasonably claim the
ConBtitutionality Of the measure un-
der that clause which authorizes Con-
gress 10 provide for the general well
fare, In making provision for che
general welfare Congress must neCes-
sarily be granted large discretionary
powers, and may undoubtedly enact
any law for the promotion Of the gen
eral welfare that is not in direct con-
GiCt with the constitution. Mr.. Hall
utterly fails to make even respeCta-
BILE argument upon this point.
The sub-tressury bill embOdies two
distinct propositions, which we will
consider separately and cOnseOutivOly.
First The provision for storage
and care and handling Of farm pro-
duCta

can cereals after they are converted
into Intoxicating beverages, while il
is claimed to be unconstitutional Ia
do 30 before they have undergone
chat process.
What are the faCts3 Every distil-
lery in the United States is required
TO be provided with a bonded ware
house for the storage OF the liquor
produced. Section ! of the act Of
March 3, 1877, provides:
That every bonded warehouse shall be under
tho control OF theCOllectOr Of internal revenue Of
the dIstnctin which II IL located and shall be In
tho Joint custody OF the government HtOrekeeper
and the proprietor thereof; the warehouse shall
be securely locked, and shall at no time be un.
locked or opened, or remain open except In the
presence OF such StOrekeeper or other person
who may be designated for him.
The product Of all American dis
tilleries thus passes into the hands Of
government paid employees the mo-
ment IL is produced; and from that
time until it il withdrawn from the
warehouse, either by payment Of the
revenue or for the purpose OF export
TO foreign countries, It remains in the
custody Of these officials. From the
last report Of the commissioner Of in
ternal revenue we learn the following
facts in relation to the number and
pay OF these warehouse officials for
tho year ending June 30, 1890:
There we're employed O8D gaugers, who re-
Ceived fees not TO exceed S5 per day. go store

The spirits thus placed in the Gus

in the bonded warehouse for three
years before the revenue of 80 cents
per gallon is required to be paid.
When removed from the distillery
and placed in the government keep
ing they are worth in the market
from 80 TO 40 cents per gallon above
the revenue. AT the end of the three
years they are worth from $S to "a
per gallon-the increase in value, as
is we'll known, being owing altogether
70 the age. The tax Of 80 cents per
gallon which may thus remain un-
paid for three years amounts, to all
lntents and purposes, TO loan from
the government to the distiller for
that length Of time. Were il not ROr

all the time il is rapidly increasing in

II during the Time the spirits remain

the commissioner Of internal revenue
for the fiscal year 1890, il appears
that during the past decade 23,619,-
SOB gallons have been thus lost,
which, at 80 cents per gallon, amounts
to a loss to the government of 22157,-
72l.70. But he does still more than
this. He also RENTS the revenue on
losses by fire or casualties. The same
report shows the loss from this cause
in the last eighteen years to have
been 2,O38,4& gallons, which, at 80
cents per gallon, amounts TO another
loss TO the government Of $1,9&,-

yers on account Of this warehouse
system, or the great special privileges
conferred upon this favored class of
individuals9 Has there been any cry
Of class Legislation because Of it7 On
the other hand it is recommended
that the system be extended. On
page XIX Of the report Of the COM
missioner Of internal revenue for the
year 1887 we find the following:
deem It proper to urge anew that legislation
be had authorizing the establishment Of special
bonded warehouses for the storage OF brandy
made from apples and peaches, or from
any fruit where dlstillstiOn may be author
lied under Ghe rules and regulations which gov
ern the distlllatiOn Of the fruits above named.
Such warehouses for the storage Of brandy dis
titled from grapes only we're authorized by the
act approved March g. 1877, and have been es-
tabllshed for ten years past,
am satisfied that similar accommodation
should be extended TO the dlstlllers OF brandy
from any fruits, and that II would be found Of
advantage TO the government as we'll as TO the
distillers.
The existing law In relation TO the production
OF brandy from apples, peaches, or grapes ex-
Clusvely, permits tho distlller Of brandy from
these fruits TO be exempted from tho burden OF
providing q warehouse upon the dlstillory prem
lses, at his own expense, for che exclusive stOr-
age Of all spirits made by him, such as is re-
Quired OF distlllers OF grain; but In place OF the
custody OF che spirits which the government
maintains, In case OF storage in warehouse, the

cause OF complaint, and would tend 10 produce
on increase Of revenue from this source.
/ For this purpose / recommend that tho pro-
visions OF the act OF March g. 1877, relating 10 tho
production OF fruit brandy, and 10 punish frauds
connected with the same, be made applicable "
brandy distilled from apples or peaches
"The early payment Of the tax is
considered by the distiller as a great
hardship, as it cOmpels him TO pay
the tax before the spirits have aged
sufficiently TO be ready for sale, and
before a profitable market can be OBJ
tanned" Has anyone heard Of any
Of the heads Of departments recon-
mending warehouses for the storage
OF wheat, corn or cotton because
farmers are under the necessity of
selling these products "beROre a
profitable market can be obtainedp
II anyone can refer us TO the page OF
any of the reports where such a
recommendation can be found we will
be very thankful for the information.
These distillers, however, poor fell
lows, are compelled to make great
sacrifices because the liquor ware
house system does not take them all
in, and IL becomes necessary that the
privileges shall be extended so that
the brandy may be permitted TO age
and become valuable and find
profitable market before the distiller
is required TO pay the tax. Why
don't Mr.. Hall and all the other
great constitutional lawyers raise a
howl about this warehouse gystemi
Oh! We imagine they are saying the
government does not build these
warehouses. The distillers have this
TO do themselves. Yes, that is true;
but we are not through with this
liquor warehouse business yet.
We have another system of ware
houses in this country besides those
built by the di9tillers. We refer to
the custom houses. We presume no
one will deny that these are built by
the government. We have these
buildings in all the chief cities of the
United States and more are constantly
being built in towns Of lesser impor-
tanCe. What are these buildings used
fort We presume il is generally
known that one purpose for which
they are used is the storage of goods
imported from foreign countries.
Section 1870 Of chapter z of laws for
the collection of duties provides;
Amy merchandise deposited In bond In any
public or private bonded warehouse may be
withdrawn for consumption within one year
from the date Of original importation on pay
ment Of the duties and charges to which IL may
be subject by law at the timeOf such withdrawal;
and after the expiration Of one year from the
date OF original importation and until the ex-
piratiOn Of three years from such date, any mer-
Chandlse In bond may be withdrawn for con-
sumption on payment Of the duties assessed on
the original entry charges and an additional
duty Of 10 per Centum Of the amount OF such du.
ties and charges.

Monday evening a Jew junk dealer from
Cleveland, left his team at Writer'S stable, and
going after them next morning, was very much
surprised that he could not get one of the hors-
es out. The trouble was, that the attention of
the Humane Society had been called to the con-
dition of the animal. and Mr.. Krake, one of the
officers of the Society, politely informed the
inhuman owner that when the horse was cured
he could get him by paying charges. and not
before. The horse was truly a pitiful sight.
having large raw sores made by the collar. The
Jew pleaded, and promised to turn the horse
out to pasture, but without avail. Mr.. Krake
finally informed him that no collar was going
on that animal again until his shoulders were
entirely well, and also gave the human brute a
well deserved scoring. which was probably
wasted, however.
