A Bad Blunder.
Tuskegee News.

T
 Conner made a very bad political blunder when he uudertoek to manage all of the county elections of the State. The Democrats are looking out for the best possible men to represent them Tn the Legislature, men whom they have known for years as honest and true citizens. They are hunting for men of intelligence and character enough to meet squorely and fairly every issue as it arises, and as white men they do rot propose to let MT. Conner dictate to them as to their choice.

Referring to Mark Twain's recent notable osculatory performance, The Montgomery Advertiser exclaims: : We know nothing of Vassar kisses. Cheer up. brethren. While there is life there is hope-Columbus Enquirer Sun.
 Hope of what? If we should ever start out on an ocsulatory tour we should never go to Vassar until the home supply was exhausted.

A correspondent of. The Hsstford Times gives a graphic illustration of the, workings of our tarfff. Without going into details as given by him it Is sufficient to say that he gives all the figures, to show that a consignment of three thousand cigarettes shipped from the city of Mexico, could be de- livered in New York for s6.35, if there was no duty on them, but that after paying the import and internal revenue duties the bill would be sss.7s. This is about one thousand per cent. on the actual cost. We care little what it costs to get these articles. but this prohibitive duty on any importation is for the express purpose of aiding an American industry and not for reven- ue. The Times favors an import duty on tobacco and its manufacturers but thinks this Is decidedly too steep.

 Perhaps the best of Mrs. Ruffin's s long stories Is The North State a N orwesian narrative of compslling in- terest. King Haakon and Queen Maude of Norway have recently sent to Mrs. ure and appreciation in reading this story.

Every evening, Wilmington daily commercial., 1906-05-08

Of cost. There is another question Of
the future supply Of gasoline equal to the
growing demand. The supply is limited.
The demand seems to be almost unlimited.
Experiments show that a gallon Of alcohol
win produce at least 10 per cent more
power than a gallon Of gasoline. Tho
alcohol for this purpose produces the best
results when there is at least 10 per cent
Of water in the mixture, or, in other words,
when the alcohol is 80 per cent pure.
This is known as $50 degrees alcohol.
There is a considerable use Of alcohol
In Germany for heat, substituting it in
stoves for gasoline. II tho alcohol can
be produced at an economical cost, there
is no question but, like the use Of gas
stoves In cities, the use Of alcohol stoves
in the country would grow to large pro-
portions.
With respect TO the use Of denaturized
alcohol for lighting purposes, careful
investigations have been made, not only
as to its availability but its efficiency as
compared with kerosene The technical
details Of these tests show:
Alcohol-One gallon will last 81 hours
and minutes and win give 3O.35 candle
power, representing 1892 candlepower
houn.
Kerosene One gallon will last % hours
and 40 minutes and will give 3O.s candle
power, representing $50 candlepower
hours.
In addition 10 being far superior in
results 10 kerosene, the untaxed alcohol
will be much cheaper in price than kero-
sene. gasoline and other oil products at
current rates.
For these and other reasons, the con-
clusion reached by the House committee
on ways and means was "Alcohol
would be able TO supplant gasoline and
kerosene in the production of power and
light and great good would result, especi-
ally 10 the farmers Of the United States.
Il seemed reasonable that this result
would follow, and, with the resulting
good to the great mass Of our people,
would far outweigh the temporary loss
which would come to the wood-alcohol
industry This belief is shared by the
great mass Of our fellow-citizens from all
parts Of the United States, and the de-
mand for tax-lrec denatured alcohol is
well-nigh universal"
The bill to bring about these very de-
sirable results is favored by the President
Of the United States; by the Secretary Of
the Treasury; by the Secretary Of Agri-
culture; by practically every member Of
the House Of Representatives excepting
seven, according to the vote when the
bill was passed by that body; by tho
American Federation of Labor; by the
National Grange, Patrons of Husbandry
representing 800 1000 farmers; by the Ma
tional Board Of Trade and hundreds Of
local boards Chambers Of Commerce and
similar organizations; by thousands OF
people throughout the country.
And it is opposed by few tariff wor-
shippers in the United States Senate
representing the protected Trusts. II
remains TO be seen whether their infiuenc,
viii prevail against the undoubted senti
ment Of the people.
