Electric r. R. tracks on Main street,

is quite satisfactory, being both sub

Fred Blumenkrantz has made sew

has made an addition at the rear of

on top of it, Mr. Blumenkrantz does
not have very much to say about his
intentions, but does not deny that he
will soon start saloon He has
spoken of running hotel for the ben
eft of stran gers who miss the last car
out of town, and it is thought that his
addition will be used for that pur-
pose.

DENATUR|zIN|l ALCOHOL
German Method of Preparing
Grain for Industrial Uses.
FIXING THE MARKET PRICE
Two Degrees of Dcnatarlzing Accord
ing to Purpose For Which IL Is
Employed Suppiants Power
Used I'm Heating, Lighting and
Manufacturing Processes.

For most industrial purposes alco-
hol is used in Germany duty free, af-
ter having been denaturized or rem
dered unfit for drinking purposes by
admiyture, in presence of Govern
ment official, with prescribed per-
centage or proportion of one OF more
of several different substances pre-
scribed in the very elaborate statute
which governs the complicated sub
ject In Germany. There are two
general classes or degrees OF denat-
urizing, viz, the complete and the
incomplete according to the pur-
/ poses for which the alcohol so de-
naturized is to be ultimately used,
Complete denaturization of alcohol
by the German system is accom-
plished by the addition to every 100
liters (261a gallons) of spirits; ta)
| Two and one-half liters of the
standard denaturizer, made of four
| parts of wood alcohol, one part of
| pyridin Ga heterogeneous base OBJ
tained by distilling bone oil or coal
| tar), with the addition of 80 grams
! to each liter of oil of lavender or
rosemary; (b) one and one-fourth
liters of the above standard and two
| liters of benzol, with every 100 liters
of alcohol.
or alcohol thus completely denat-
urized there was used in Germany
| during the campaign year 1904,
| 931,406 hectoliters denatuTiEed by
process (a), as described above, and
| 52,764 hectoliters which had been
denaturized by process (b). This
made total of 26.0S0,505 gal
Ions of wholly denaturized spirits
used during the year for heating,
| lighting, and various processes of
! manufacture.
Incomplete denaturization, 1. e.,
sufficient to prevent alcohol from be-
ing drunk, but not disqualifying it
from use for various special purposes
| for which the wholly denatuTized
spirits would be unavailable, is ac-
complished by several methods, as
| follows: The quantity and nature of
each substance given being the pre-
scribed dose for each 100 liters
| (2612 gallons of spirits. (c) Five
liters of wood alcohol or one-half lit
er of pyridin; CD 20 liters of solu-
tion of shellac, containing one part
gum to two parts alcohol of 80 per
cent. purity (alcohol for the manu-
| facture of celluloid and pegamoil is
denaturized; (e) by the addition of
kilogram campior or two liters oil of
turpentine, or one-half liter benzol
to each 100 liters of spirits.
The price of denaturized alcohol
varies in the different States and
provinces of the Empire in accord
ance with the yield and consequent
market price Of potatoes, grain and
other materials.
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1906-11-27

At a banquet in New York where
several hundred Republican leaders OF
the state were present former Cover.
nor Black warned the Republican par
ty as follows:
"I do not prophecy the dissolution
of the Republican party. The senti-
ments l utter are not based upon that
fear. They spring rather from the
conviction which grows upon me that
the party faith is growing drOwsy. We
magnify our men and minimize our
party. When a cause seeks support
because of it's candidates and not be-
cause of its principles it is not far to
the rocks"
The vote given Hearst in New York
state has caused more than Gov. Black
to sit up and take notice" The Re
publican party as the protector of
trusts and shield for official corruption
is certainly mot far from the rocks. .
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1906-11-27
Where Publications Go.

The printing law OF 1895 (still In
force) specified the edition and dis
position of the principal annual pub
lications of the Government. The
total number''-whether single VOL
umes or sets of part" authorized
by the law was 982, 800, afterward
increased to 1,115,000. OF this ag-
gregate Congress reserved for itself
as quota 88 per cent.
The quota arose. and has flourish
ed, principally for two reasons. Nat
urally enough, the voter rather likes
to obtain something for nothing, and
the receipt of expensive publications
from the member of Congress for the
district involves an element of fiat
terry, just as does the receipt of a
package Of Agricultural Department
garden seeds from the same source
I he books may not be of any practi-
cal value TO the recipient, and the
seeds may grow, but the object of
their despatch has been secured.
Thus there has grown up In connec-
ton with the distribution of Official
volumes an element totally apart
from the usefulness of the publica-
ton or the appropriateness of its
destination.
