Is Prohibition a Success.

We leave this for the people of the To-
c~alities interested to decide, while we
try to induce those who ave to use it,
for sickness of for family use in any
way, to use pure whiskey. The kind
that does the least harm and the most
good. We don't suppose there ever was
or ever will be a person but who would
want pure whiskey if he could get it,
and yet, the impure article has been
sold so much, and the claim so often
made that it was pure that some people
do not know the taste or qualifications
of the genuine article.
Convenience again causes some to be
careless in ordering their whiskey.
They either imagine they will not get
their orders filled promptly, or that We
are too far away to give their orders
the attention they should have. Still
another wrong impression, as we deliver
goods in the South as promptly as to
local points, and we make a speciality OF
shipping all orders promptly on the first
train.
During the last three months we have
e~ndeavored to give the readers of this
paper a few facts concerning whiskey,
to guide them in it's use and buying. We
have already received magnificent re-
suits, and are particularly pleased with
our part of the advertising, and should
there be anyone who would like for us
to go more into details, we will give
them all the information they desire il
they will write US.
Let us send you our order blanks and
instructions-give Premier Pure a trial
and even though you are the poorest
Judge Of whiskey you will experience nc
trouble in telling the difference in o u
goods and others.

MILLIONS FOR rAS1O1ANY.
Enormous Contracts Obtained by the
Murphy Business Corporation.

New York, Feb. ga faxorite di-
version just now at Tammany Hall is
the making of estimates of the num-
Der of millions that will be made by
Charles F. Murphy, Alderman Gaffney,
Murphy's brother John, and a few
favored ones in the Wigwam through
the operations of the New York Con-
tracing & Trucking company.
The attention of the general public,
as well as that of envious Tammany
leaders, has been drawn to the i'm
mense success of this corporation by
the announcement of the 100000
contract awarded by the New York &
New Haven road to Murphy's brother
and his aIdermanic partner. The
Pennsylvania railroad tunnel was an
other plum with millions in it for the
trucking company. The profits from
the building of the gas works at As
toria have been estimated in the hum
dreds of thousands; the company will
get rich contracts from the corpora
ton that is to build the Sixth avenue
tunnel, and equally profitable con-
tracts are in prospect from the under
takings of a quasi-public character
The ostensible head of the New
York Contracting & Trucking COM
pany is John Murphy a brother of the
Tammany leader, but the latter and
Gaffney are the real powers in this
wonderfully successful corporation.
Whatever they want from the board
of aldermen is granted, even highway
holdups of the most fragrant charac-
ter The company has many docks,
valuable for its purpose, for which a
most reasonable rate is paid to the
city No other company can secure
the concessions that the Murphy con-
Germ can. The fortunate ones in this
close corporation already have grown
enormously rich, and there are mill
lions more to be had from this mine
f graft.

have ridden on that road on a pass.
Some time ago l was nominated for
a judicial position, and as soon as I
was nominated I received passes from
them because did not think it proper
for a man expecting a judicial office
to accept such favors. When I was
elected I received more passes, which
I returned"
c. o. Nelson said that there was one
railroad company which does not give
passes unless the members ask for the
passes.
Mr. Haskins spoke in favor of the
resolution and against the amend
ment.
W. A. S. Bird. of Shawnee. said:
1.-The issuance of free passes does not
influence the legislature. This reso-
luton is a play to the galleries. The
passage of the drastic bill regulating
railroads by unanimous vote proves
this. The amendment is all right
Bert Steckel. of Barton county. de-
clared that all the passes should be
prohibited.
Jones of Norton said: This amend
ment should be voted down. If the
passes are shut off we will attend to
business better. We go home on our
passes too much. If we did not have
passes we would stay here and work.
A W. Benson roasted W. A. S. Bird
for saying that the resolution was a
play to the galleries. He said that Bird
was playing to the galleries Passes
weaken the influence of members both
here and at home" said Mr.. Benson.
Mr.. Mead said the resolution would
have no show to pass if amended.
Husey's amendment was defeated by
a decisive vote.
The resolution was then amended to
prohibit the members asking for or ac-
cepting free passes for their friends and
constituents.
The resolution failed to get the neces-
sary two-thirds ajority and was de-
feated. Mr.. Hackney made an effort to
send it to a committee but his motion
was tabled

MRS. DAVIS ANSWERS MILES.
Challenges Him to Produce Letter She
Wrote Expressing Her Thanks

Savannah, Ga, Feb. 22.-Writing to
the Savannah Press, Mrs. Jefferson
Davis calls upon General Nelson A.
Miles to produce a letter which he
claims to have from her thanking him
for his kind treatment of President
Davis at Fortress Monroe or to cease
referring to it.
Her letter says in part: 81 have not
the least memory of having written
such a note to him. It is conceivable
that while in ignorance of the facts
or in hopeful recognition of some i'm
provement in the treatment inflicted
upon my husband / may have made
some acknowledging of what l
may have construed as common hui
mainly at the time when, had known
the facts as they existed, I neither
could nor would have written save in
indignant protest.
1.-THE public attention can not be
DETECTED from the terrible charges I'M
der which the general rests by a con-
troversy over a. letter concerning even
the existence of which no stronger
proof is advanced than the bare as
sertfon of General Miles. But in so
far as it may be of any Importance
my estimate of General Miles charac-
ter is such that I am constrained to
demand that if the letter exists a
Photographic reproduction showing
the date, the place of writing, the con-
tents and the signature be given to
the public"
