THAT TIDAL WAVE OF PROSPERITY.

For weeks past, while the tariff
bill has been pending, Dun & Co.,
have represented the great industries
OF the country as simply waiting for
the end Of the period of uncertainty
incident to our unsettled tariff policy,
when, we were assured, everything
would fairly boom. The weekly re-
view Of August II ssys:
Large improvement has been expected
from any kind of settlement, the more be-
cause Of q vast amount Of business deferred
from week 10 week in the hope Of more
definite conditions. The rush Of such bust
ness, or even part Of it, might easily have
doubled transactions for a time. Il is not
10 be overlooked chat the effect of new
duties upon many branches of industry and
trade is problematiCal and may be deter
mined only after some months Of expert
enoe, and meanwhile Che serious injury TO
corn and some conditions exercise a re-
gtrainiDg influence.
So we are still to have another
period of waiting for the appearance
Of that tidal wave. We are always
right upon the verge of fast ap-
preaching prosperity, but there is
ever some circumstance that retards
it's progress. Inssmueh as one of
the causes of hard times heretofore
has been an overproduction OF corn
it would seem that the injury to the
present crop ought to facilitate the
approach Of prosperity rather than
retsrd it, as Dun now intimstes that
it may.
Meantime business failures go right
on, varying somewhat from week to
week, but sffording none of the in
dicRtlons Of hope that these reviews
held out to the country at large. The
aggregate liabilities for the month of
July are given as $11, ,291, ,305.

A POOR, OLD FRAUD.

The Capital of August IL has an
editorial paragraph IN which it says:
The Topeka ADVOCATE complains because
the Capital has no sympathy for the poor
Pops who, il claims, were defrauded out Of
their alleged victory in Alabama. The
Capital has no evidence that the Pops were
not whipped out Of their boots in Alabama.
In the news columns of this same
issue, the Capital publishes the evil
dence that in Loundas county alone,
with total registration OF but $500
and an actual poll Of less than 1,5OO
the democrats have returned a clean
msjoritY of 4, 800 votes. Other coun-
ties have done even worse than this,
and it may be truthfully SAID that the
frauds prscticed were so glaring that
even the democratic press of the
country makes no attempt to defend
the democratic methods in that state.
We have not seen SINGLE republican
paper, except the Capital, but un-
hesitatingly admits the fraud and
condemns it. The Capital occupies
the proud and distinguished position
of standing as the single spologist
for it.

neglect of congress to provide for
more regaugings will work great
hsrdships to the distlllers. 1t was
undoubtedly an oversight in congress
and it ought to be remedied.

WHAT THE WHISKY TRUST MAKES BY
TIE NEW Law.

CINCINNATI, o., August 13.--Tho decisive
aCtion of congress on the tariff started
active operations in taking Wbisky out Of
bond here tonight. The receipts in the
city average $1,000 per day at Che internal
revenue Office and to-day they exceeded
100000. In CovingtOn, KY, the increase
was much greater. Al Greensboro, KY, to-
night, 5000 barrels were ordered rsgGuged
Immediately TO take advantage Of the so
cent lsax before she new tariff bill takes
effect. Two dozen extra gaugsrS have been
engaged 10 regGuge bonded whisky in Shis
district. Tomorrow the revenue receipts
are expected TO be very large from tonded
whisky everywhere.
~
LOUISVILLE, KY, August 13.-The passing
Of the tariff bill caused wonderful activity
in the whisky trust. It was after banking
hours when the news was received, yet in
the remaining hour in which the Office Of
the collector Of internal revenues was open,
nearly 10000 gallons OF whisky were taken
out Of bond. The total receipts between
3 and O'Clock were about $160,000.
~
CHICAGO, ILL.,, August 16.-The move
ment Of the whisky trust 10 get as much aS
possible Of its product out Of bond before
the new tariff law, with the increased tax
on spirits, goes into effect, was extended to
Chicago to-day. Within the next twenty
four hours, unless the trust changes itS
mind, not less than 1000 barrels Of whisky
will be taken out Of bond here and the tax
paid. To-day the Shuffeldt, Calumet and
Riverdale distilleries, whore che bulk Of
the trust whisky in Chicago is stored, ap-
piled for all the gaugers who could be fur
nished By the collector Of internal revenue
TO regAugs the stock upon which tax was 10
be paid. Collector MiEsn sent ell the men
at his disposal TO help on the work. The
amount TO be taken out, 1900 barrels, ia
about one. sixth Of the amount in the Chi
Crgo district.
Does the reader understand the
full significance Of these dlspatchesG
There is an attachment to the new
tariff law increasing the internal
revenue tax on whisky from 80 cents
to $1.10 per gallon and extending the
period that il may remain in bond
from three TO eight years. The haste
to withdraw that which is now in
bond is in order TO save the addi-
tionRl tax Of 20 cents per gallon by
getting it out before the new law
goes into effect. Mr.. CleVeland's de-
lay in signing the bill, or his waiting
for 1t to become q law without his
signature, affords the opportunity
for this withdrawal. The Esugers
are all furnished and paid by the
government, and the department
hastens to supply all the extra
gaugers that can be found as fast as
the whisky trust asks for them. The
undoubted intention Of the trust is
to withdraw every gallon now in bond
if possible. This will be more sp-
parant from the import of another
dispatch which we shall quote soon.
Now, reader, think what this means
TO the whisky trust. When the new
law goes into effect il will add just
20 cents per gallon to all whisky
thereafter manufactured. As the
trust will pay the old tax of only 80
cents upon all that is withdrawn

increase in the amount during the
last five years, so that there is no
reason to believe that the amount
has been diminished SINCE October l,
1893. Twenty cents per gallon upon
this amount is $26,857, ,733-s right
snug little profit to be put into the
pockets Of the whisky trust by a
single stroke Of le gislstion. The trust
can afford to make a very nice con-
tribution to the next campaign. But
this is not ell. Not satisfied with the
profit upon what is now in bono, here ls
another dispatch showing what more
is being done:
WASHINGTON, D. c., August 16.-Tele-
grams received to-day at the internal rev.
enue bureau show very unusual activity
among owners Of whisky in bond, and large
quantities axe being withdrawn at all Of She
distillery Oenters.
In addition to the Withdrawals, disSiDers
are now running their plants TO their full
capacity with view Of getting tho benefits
Of the new rates. One firm in Cincinnati
yesterday increased ito output Of mash Of
grain from 800 TO 1900. AS spirits are now
distilled, only one week Ia needed TO effect
the change from rye and corn to spirits,
and 10 10 expected chat many thousands Of
barrels will have been distilled and the tax
paid before the new bill becomes Q law.
A large number Of gsugerS have been
called for and furnished TO all leading dis
tillsrs throughout the West, especially at
Cincinnati, Louisville, Peoria and Pekin,
u Internal revenue officials are greatly
annoyed TO discover that under the new bill,
which extends the bonded period TO eight
years, only one regauge OF spirits is permit
ted, 40 in the present law. This being She
case, owners who now order their whisky
HegAuged and fail TO take ID Out OF bond,
will be held to the quantities found at Ehis
time, even if they do not withdraw IL for
four years, when the sOakSgs period under
the new bill closes. IL is stated that great
haRdships are likely TO result In many
instances, as the loss by evaporation and
Soakage Is several gallons in the course Of
the eight. years period.
So the distilleries are also running
at their full capacity in order to
make as much new whisky as posi-
bic upon which the 20 cents profit
may also be realized.
But the reader must not overlook
still another point in this dispatch.
Internal revenue officials are greatly
annoyed to discover that, under the
new bill only one regauge Of spirits
is permitted" Why are they an
noyed? When the new law goes into
effect and new whisky is gagged and
put in bond, it can remain there for
eight years undergoing the agelng
process, if desired. When the dis
tiller wishes to withdraw it from
bond it is regauged, and any loss it
may have suffered from leakage or
evaporation is deducted from the
original amount placed in bond, and
the distiller pays the tax only on
what remains. The significance of
the annoyance is found in the fact
that this vast amount Of whisky
which is now being regsuged and the
tax paid upon it at 80 cents per gal
lon, but which there is no immediate
