The semi.annual reports of two large
brewing and mailing establishments in
Chicago and Milwaukee show a decrease
in sales of AZ, 427 barrels, and the total
output Of all the breweries in the Chicago
internal revenue districts decreased $780,
ISL barrels for the six months, and al
though the hot weather has increased the
consumption somewhat, it is still below
that of the corresponding period of previ-
Gus years. The Boston Transcript re-
marks, if it is the bicycle, as is generally
supposed, that has done this. the wheel is
not likely to prove the wheel of fortune
to the liquor trade, for it appears to be
the best ally the cause of temperance has
had for many years.

the Senate rates had been adopted. the
differential instead of being - 1-2 cents,
would be about IS 3-4 cents. a. better
way to explain it, he said, would be to
say that the House rates and conference
rates on refined sugar gave 2-16 protec-
ton, while the Senate schedule demand
ed 3-16. This the Senate did not obtain,
but instead accepted PIG. There is no
way the respective schedules can be com
pared to show any surrender on the part
of the House except in the encouragement
given to the beet industry by retaining
the Senate rate of 1856
The fact is, the whole business was an
outrageous stock-jobbing affair that was
aided and abetted, and undoubtedly taken
advantage of by their friends and ac-
quaintances in Wall Street. There was
no time when the truth could not have
been ascsrtained. The House conferees
declared that they would not accept the
Senate schedule, and there was not mo-
ment when there was the slightest reason
for believing that they would surrender.

John Pooler of Waterville Is l04 years of
age. He fs the fortunate possessor Of
nearly all Of hts faculties. It is not nec-
essary to raise the voice in talking with
any object. Mr.. Pooler was born In St.
Francis, Canada. Mrs. Pooler is 10 years
younger than her husband. Mr. Pooler
says he has not been to bed for 20 years,
which is accounted for by his inability
to breathe when lying down. But, as he
says, after one gets used to sitting up, it
is more convenient, as one does not have
to take of his clothes and can 20 out for
walk at any time. day or night. When
asked how old any Of his relatives had
lived to be, he remarked that he did not
recall whether it was his grandfather or
great-grandfather who did not die until
he was 1876. For his part, he sees no rea-
son why he may not live to be as old.
Numerous inquiries are made by letter
to State Librarian Carver for information
respecting the workings of the Maine
prohibition law, and statistics to prove
or disprove Its benefcent effects. The
law has been in operation since 1851, with
short intermission. No effort has been
made by the state to compile statistics
showing its effects in relation to the in
crease or decrease Of crime, or as to its
effects upon the industrial interests of the
state.

DUE TO MIR. REED.
(Rockland Star.

That the surrender of the Senate to the
House on the sugar schedule is due large
~ to the influence of Speaker Reed is
universally conceded. In this use of his
influence for the good of the country .Mr.
Keed deserves and will receive the appro-
baton If the people without regard to
politics. The Senate will find that SO
long as Mr.. Reed is at the head of the
House to stiffen it's backbone, it cannot
be bullied into any undue suEserviency
to the upper house. The people came
long ago to trust Mr.. Reed for his rugged
patriotism.
A TRIUMPH OF STA
(Albany Journal.)
1t is long time since a measure in
volving such great and varied interests
as the tariff bill was disposed of SO expe-
ditious1y as wassthe Dingley bill in the
House Of Representatives yesterday.
But then it is long time since the
lower House of Congress had presiding
officer of such signal executive ability
as Thomas Bracket Reed Of the State Of
Maine.
His tremendous personalityAwas never
revealed SO wildly and impressively as
has been done, in this instance. The pas
sage Of the bill on the day 1t was report
ed from the conference committee WAS
an exhibition of his power and strength
almost unexampled in parliamentary
annals.
Not only did he send through the great
measure in this manner, but through his
logged firmness and courage the country
was saved from what might have been a
scandal Of the first magnitude-the adop-
ton Of the sugar schedule that was pre-
pared by the Senate Mr. Reed declared
that that schedule would not be accept
ed by the House, even If the bill were to
fail, and though the Senate conferees
grumbled, they Knew their man and were
conscious of the fact that he would never
back down from the position he had tax
en-.
So the senators made virtue of neces-
sity and they backed down, all reports of
the stock jobbers to the contrary notwith-
standing
