Gobbled by the Whisky Trust.

MIDDLETOwN, n. Y, Aug. LIT
is learned that the whisky trust has
scored an advantage by securing the
control for a term OF years of the wood
alcohol produced in the country.
Wood alcohol is the chief product of
the diftillation of certain kinds of
wood in sealed iron retorts which are
subjected to intense heat. 1t is an
acrid and inferior spirit, but enters
into competition with grain or fruit
alcohol as q chief substitute in GER
tain mechanical and manufacturing
uses, and to that extent menaces the
prosperity of the whisky trust.

OH, JUSTICE!

BY JAMES McCLOUD LANDSEER.
Oh, justice! justice! thy name doth serve
As Scape-goat for many a knave,
Or trickSter, or hireling weak,
Who fain would find an hOnOred cogno-
e
For deeds most vile and treachero1s.
IL honor had another home,
Than in the breasts of such as thee,
A houSeleSs, homeless wanderer thou
wouldst be,
Estranged from all that love thee now;
But some there be, who'd sooner far
Have naught beside thee than to feel
That thou a stranger vast to their every
action.
Honor, justice! this noble pair should
Hold the scales in front of every step of
of ours:
And may confusion fall on them,
Who, disregarding this, would seek TO
pander TO the strong,
Zen though, in doing so, they put the
truth to ScOrn.

Danger of Poisoned Fish.

The Lancet contains q warning
against the use Of iced fish. Ice
spoils the freshness, firmness and
flavor of fish by rendering it, prior to
pu%trefactiOn, insipid, soft and ,fsbby.
Where fish is preserved on ice, ii
appears that the ice only
favors putrefaction by fur
nishing q constant supply of moisture
carrying with it the putrefactive
bacteria derived from its ~unclean
surroundings, SO that this iced fish
remains covered with fresh solutions
of filth pregnant with putrefactive
bacteria. On the other hand, keep
ing fish dry and cold a in no way
favor p~utrefactiou.

ILLINOIS SENATORSHIP.
A CRISIS REACHED IN THAT
CONNECTION.
Some One Must be Elected to Sue.
ceed Parnell Before Next Tues
day or the Farmers Will Quit
BallOtinR In Joint Session.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Feb 6.-The contest
for the United States senatorship has
reached crisis. Representative Moore,
of the alliance, appeared before the re-
pu5lican's steering committee yesterday
and said he had no pledges to make ex-
cept that if they see fit to accept any OF
the three neil named by the farmers, the
one elected would, he thought, carry out
fully the dictates of his conscience and
the principles of the alliance.
The farmers have given the republi-
cans until next Tuesday to reach de
cision. After Tuesday the alliance rep
resentatives will refuse to further par
ticipate in joint balloting and will
demand that he work of legislation in
both houses be taken up.
Considerable excitement has been oc-
casoned by the publication of letter
from Col. William X. Morrison, who
four years ago was the democratic can.
didate for United States senator. The
letter saws that when Palmer has had the
continued support ofall democratic voters
for a reasonable time there will be
neither deccncy nor democracy in stand
ing out and saying, "lf he cannot be
elected no other democrat shall haye the
opportunity.
Gen. Palmer says Col. Morrison does
not understand the situation.
