A Machine of Their Own.

YOUR average mugwunp loves ma
" chine politics better even than
the self-confessed boss does;
the mugwump's only objection is to the
handling of the machine by the other
fellows. The pretense that gave blrth
to the Seth Low movement in New
York last year was that the republican
organization was machine and that
the machine must be smashed. Yet
the men who managed the Low move
ment were machine politicians Of the
regulation type Their inspiration was
nothing better than grievance-they
were mad because President Cleveland
ignored them and recognized Platt in
the distribution Of federal patronage.
The wonder is that these plotting pol
iticians were able to fool so many peo-
pie They were surprisingly successful
in breaking up the Plat machine'
forthwith they started out TO construct
"A machine of their own-they have IL
nearly completed These factionlsts
now style themselves the republican
organization of the county of New

rollment; they propose to have all the
republican say in this years important

assert that their organization will show

chine politicians in 1898: and they will
adopt the tactics which formerly they
condemned in Plat simply because they
are the tactics that are inseparable
| from political organization and there's
no other style that would be good for
anything
The course to which the Low boilers
have publicly committed themselves is
the sure presage of divided republican,
ism in New York. Under ordinary cir
cumstances that would assure the state

TUESDAY. FEBRUARY l, 1898.
Two Important Features.
1.-Two pertinent points got clear
illustration in the action taken

1.-Two pertinent points got clear
illustration in the action taken
by the house Of representatives
yesterday. In the first place. the quick
action on the Teller bill shows how
complete the power of the speaker has
been made by Mr. Reed, to the further
ance or the undoing of legislation.
During all the weeks of last year 8
extraordinary session, do what they
would the house members could not
advance a single inch any measure,
except one. within the legitimate range
of the business of congress, simply be-
cause Speaker Reed said il shouldn't be
done. He even refused TO appoint the
committees Since the regular session
started, in December. members have
tried to get a hearing on resolutions
that are an exact reproduction OF
planks in the ST. Louis platform-the
Cuban plank, for instance. These men,
bers might as well talk to q stone wall.
But when anything comes up that hap
pens 10 be what Speaker Reed wants,
il runs through the house with
alacrity He wanted to dispose of tho
done on Monday betweem noon and 3
o'clock
The second suggestion furnished by
yesterdays vote is one that gives ceur-
age to the friends of silver-the vote
shows that the house democrats
almost without exception. are proposing
10 stand by the Chicago platform. Five
of the six democrats made members of
the house ways and means committee
by Speaker Reeds appointment are
southerners The sixth democrat, Mr..
Mcclellan, the son of Gen. George Is.
Mcclellan, represents a district in New
York city. He voted against the gold
bugs in committee and in the session of
the house. And. as a rule, the house
democrats pulled true yesterday. The
gain becomes the more remarkable
when one remembers that in Cleve-
lands time, on the repeal vote of 1898,
the democrats were with the goldhugs
by vote of two Ia one-at that time
I24 house democrats voted With CleNe-
land and IS against. The sequel is not
forgotten the people. at the polls,
defeated most Of these gold democrats
at the next congressional elections.
The aim Of Speaker Reed and his
associate managers of the house of
representatives was by the hasty killing
Of the Teller resolution to give the
country an object lesson. They feared
the effect on the public of the senate's
action; they wanted 10 make emphatic
the contrast between senate and house
They are welcome to whatever benefit
they may reap from their action
VIGOROUSLY, the house is the admins
trations house; silvcr's friends are
willing that the single-standard inten
tions of the administration circle b'
made as emphatic as possible. Aftei
the vote the overshadowing question
will be the same as il Was before the
vote: that question is what shift th'
administration party viii make In try
ing to get a majority in the house tina

DRINKS OF ALL NATIONS.
Interesting Statistics Compiled by the
London Board of Trade.

From the London Mail.
The board of trade has commenced the
publication of a series of useful official
reports showing the production and con-
sumption of alcoholic liquors. chiefly beer,
wine and spirits, in the chief European
countries and the United States.
The first striking fact is the geographic
cal distribution OF alcoholic beverage.
Generally speaking, spirits are consumed
in the North, where cold and wet ell
mates prevail, and wine in the South. In
Russia spirits are almost the only drink.
In Germany the Baltic provinces drink
little or no wine, but prefer spirits With
some beer, while the southern provinces
--Alsaee-Lorraine. .Navaria and Baden-
consume a considerable quantity of wine
as well as much beer.
In France the staple beverage OF the
provinces bordering on the Mediterra-
mean is wine, which is cheap there. but
the colder departments OF Northern
France drink far more spirits The same
difference of taste distinguishes Northern
and Southern Italy. Beer is. of course,
the staple drink in England and spirits
in Scotland and Ireland.
From the taxation of alcoholic bever-
ages the United Kingdom derives % per
cent. of its total revenue. the Unit Il
States 30 per cent, France 10 per cent.
and Germany liz per cent, and 1T Is IN
these countries that the amount of drink
consumed is the largest.
France is the country where the con-
sumption of wing is the largest, and also,
generally speaking, the country where tn
| production is largest, too, though of late
| years the production in Italy has some
| times exceeded il. In the United Kingdom
| the consumption of wine in 1886 reached
| 15.176.000 gallons, but this was conn Il a
| lively little when contrasted with last
| years consumption of beer, which eX-
ceeded loo, 100000 gallons. or % gallons
/ for every member of the population.
| The people of Bavaria are the world 5
| champion drinkers: their consumption OF
| beer amounts to so gallons per head OF
| the population in year. Belgium ranks
second, where more than AZ ga Ions pei
| head of beer are consumed. 1t is the
| proud privilege of the United Kingdom tt
