Ngw YoRK, Jan. 3l.-Tbe Herald
devotes four columns to an expose
Of au alleged attempt Of the whisky

tion Iu that product. The Herald
say:
"It involved the control Of hun.
dred Of millions Of dollars worth OF
goods and a prospective profit OF
more than S5O,OOOO,O0O. 1t was pre-
dicled upon legislation by congress,
which was asked for osteDsibly as a

end of the current fiscal year. The
annual consumption Of distilled spir.
its being 100 ,0OO, 900 gallons, yielding
500, ,0OO, 900 at the present rate Of tax

If the tax were increased 35 cents

should be raised. Thus the trust
noped and expected to secure The
Increased tax, leaving the federal
treasury really worse off than 1t
now Is. For the sale Of the trusts

be passed, would hold the market
for two years to Ine, so that there
would be 10 necessity for withdraw.

these accumulated stocks were all

for anybody to pay the Increased

"rhe exposure by the Herald of

gressmen, among whom, happily,
were found large number who
would refuse to lend themselves to
lne preparation of such q wrong
against the government. Beyond
this, the coming administration be-
lug pledged to II revision of the

internal revenue should be left alone
until it was known what the re-

prevailed, and as result the Scott

Thurston, 1--WE are more than satis-

As you may suppose, we scanned

"Our commission gives us no
authority to go beyond the United

to turn to England, commission
will be sent there, but we hope that
