One distillery in Kentucky turns
out every seven days 1900 barrels Of
whiskey, says the Lincoln, Neb.
Journal. The output for year would
Ibe 624 barrels. The cost OF all this
to the manufacturer may be fairly
estimated at $374,400 and he receives
from the wholesaler a profit of from
81 to 81 per barrel. The government
comes in for nice little rake-off, but
the fellow who has to pay for it all
including transportation charges, gov
eminent and local license fees, salary
of barkeeper and rent of buildings is
the man before the bar, and for these
$4,000 barrels of booze he pays
$24,761, 67S, and then goes home and
beats his wife because supper isn't
ready. "..." !

Judge Cowan in reviewing a blind
pig case gave scorching rebuke to
the men who had been in the habit
OF drinking intoxicating liquors more
or less for several years and then
went on the witness stand and testi
fed that they did not know wheteher
the stuff they got was intoxicating OF
not. Such men he pronounced as
liars and scoundrels and stated that II
was to the benefit of the community
that it be rid of them, for If they had
such little, respect for the law and
honesty in a matter like this they
might sometime plan some revenge
on a responsible business man or citt
zen and with their lying abilities
cause him much trouble. A lack OF
respect for law is detrimental to any
community. & l.. n 5sE
