DENATURED ALCOHOL.
Process of 1IanufaCturc-POssi

FLETCHER ID. PROCTOR,
Governor.

Process of iIRnufHCture-POssib
ON the Farm.
Denaturcd alcohol is simply the com.
mercial grade Of pure alcohol to which
is added wood alcohol or some other
material that makes it entirely unfit
for Il beverage or for medicinal pur-
poses. Alcohol is a product of the de-
composition of sugar or, more properly,
glucose by the action of ferments, such
as yeast Any substance which con-
starch, vegetable fiber, etc. which can
be converted into sugar can be used
as a SOURCE of alcohol. The most i'm
pOrtant sources used commercially are
grapes, pota toes, beets and other root
crops and grains, especially rye, bar
ley, corn and rice. Many other fruits
besides grapes are used-for example,
apples, peaches and cherries. Fibers
such as cotton, linen and hemp. after
chemical treatment to change the
been used successfully.
How Made In Commerce.
In commerce the process is simply an
Improvement ON the home process of
making wine from grapes, currants or
other fruit Juices. A vat is filled with
liquid properly warmed, and yeast Is
added and stirred. Soon bubbles of
carbonic acid gas appear and gradually
increase until the liquid looks as if it
were boiling. In about twenty four
hours the lNlbbling gradually ceases,
the liquid becomes clear, and about
forty-eight hours from the start it Is
ready for distillation. This distillation
depends upon the difference in temper
allure at which alcohol and water boil,
the former requiring considerably less
heat to turn into vapor. 1t also de-
ponds upon the condensation OF vapOr
into liquid when the temperature falls
Publication Processes.
In practice. with the simple forms of
still, there are always more or less wa
ter and volatile substances, such as es-
Sential oils and acetic acid, present in
the condensed product, which must
therefore be purified by other processes.
The most common of these processes
Is successive distillatiOn, the liquid re-
sulting from the first distillation being
again and again distilled until the prod
uce is pure. Thus, to give theoretical
example, starting with an original
crude liquid containing 5 per cent alco-
hol, its condensed vapor may contain
40 per cent of alcohol. This second
liquid redistilled may yield a liquor
containing 50 per cent alcohol; a third
distillation may produce a solution 30
per cent pure. and SO on. The necessity
for this Redistribution and the remov-
al of undesirable impurities has given
rise to vast variety Of complicated
apparatus

THANKSGIVING!
STATE OF VERMONT.
BY FLETCHER D. PROCTOR, GovRNt

BY FLETCHER d. PROCTOR, GovRNoR.
A proclamation. Whereas, the people
of this State. as their fathers, still ac-
knowledge their dependence on the bene-
ficent providence of Almighty God and,
the recurring year having brought again
he season OF harvest, it is & cd to follow
the hallowed custom of the fathers and
to recognize this Divine favor by setting
apart day for public expression of graf
itude an ! praise, therefore, | do appoint
Thursday, the twenty. ninth day of Nov
ember current, day of thanksgiving for
the people of this State.
Vermont has abundant reason for
grateful rejoicing. A strong and reso-
lutte people have established here State
that has always stood for an intelligent,
liberty-loving, law-abiding citizenship,
and for that righteousness which alone
exalteth a commonwealth or a nation.
Her welfare and honor have been
conserved by the intelligence and honest
purpose of her citizens. Her products of
field, mine, workshop, and factory have
abounded. There are many evidences,
also, of virtues that strengthen and up
lift society-pa riOtisn, high moral
courage, justice, and unselfish devotion
to the public good.
For these blessings-the heritage of
the past, the advantage of the present,
and the promise of the future-let MS on
the day designated, in the church, in the
home, and in other fitting place render
our deep and reverent gratitude to the
Giver of all good. Let as be moved by a
spirit of humility. generous fraternit y,
and tender sympathy. Let us draw
closer and sweeten the ties of home and
family. And let us dedicate ourselves to
that Iiving-public and which
will bring to the State and nation CON
tinuance and an increase of enligten-
nient, liberty, and peace, and which will
make for righteous character.
Given under my hand and the Seal of
the State, in the Executive Chamber at
Montpelier, this fifteenth day of Nov
ember in the year of our LoId, one
thousand nine hundred six, and of the
Independence of the United States the
one hundred thirty-frst.

GRAF TERS DENOUNCED
Chairman Shively Refers TO Corrup-
ton Among Republican Senators,
and Suggests a Remedy.

Indianapolis, Ind, June THE
Democrats of Indiana in state con
vention today adopted a platform
strongly indorsing William J. Bryan
for President, and selected a state
ticket for all officers except governor
and reporter of the supreme court.
Benjamin F. Shively, of South Bend,
was permanent chairman of the con-
vention.
Indianapolis, Ind, June 7.-B. F.
Shively, chairman of the Democratic
state convention, which met here to-
day, in speech numerically scored
so-called graft in politics. He spoke
Of the insurance companies contrib
uting to the Republican campaign
fund as a crime He continued: "Re-
publican Senator Mitchell had wit
messed the wrongful appropriation of
public property by private individuals
under the form of law, and he and
his associates attempted wrongful ap
100000 acres of public land, and he
died on his way to prison. Repub-
lican .. S. Senator from Nebraska
peddled out the postoffices of his
state for his own gain as a hawker
peddles fish, and only escaped con-
viction on a technicality. A Republi-
can U. S. Senator (Burton) of Kan
sas employed the power of his sena-
torial Office to protect a get-rich-
quick concern that was picking the
pockets of his Kansas constituents
Platt and Depew, men long in the
public life of the country, and who
mad been regarded as paragons of Of
fetal and business integrity, are at
least discovered to have been the
commonest sort of common grafters.
The disease itself suggests the rem
edy. It began where public power
first diverted from public purposes
and made to serve private property
interests. Withdraw special privileges
and the temptation to corruption they
engender will disappear. Let all in
terests stand equal under the law,
and all men will then have a com
mon interest in clean and just gov
ernment"
Referring to w. J. Bryan, the
speaker said: That which is today
eulogized as broad craftsmanship
and enlightened patriotism in Theo-
dore Roosevelt, was only few years
ago denounced as reactionary, revo-
lutionary and unpatriotic in William
J. Bryan. The aftersight of the one
is almost equal to the foresight of
the other"

indictment for accepting rebates
from the Burlington railroad on ex-
port shipments starting from Missou-
ri river points, was resumed in the
q. s. District Court today. Before
court convened, A s. Van Valken-
berg said: "A statement OF facts
will be read to the jury, and the
court will then instruct the jury as
to the law in the case. The usual ar
guments will then be made and the
case submitted. No witnesses will
be examined The case probably will
go to the jury during the day"

! said, Rainbolt grabbed him and push
him against the wheel so that he
could not nave climbed into the bug
gy if he had been so disposed. At
the same time Rainbolt grabbed him
he had his revolver drawn and punch
ed Hendricks once in the side with
the gun. At this time the fatal shot
was fired by Nathan Hendricks Hen
bricks stated that after the snot was
fired he ran away, and that all 9TH
ers around ran. He told Nathan that
he would meet him at Eight Mile

tion made demonstration as to now
Rainbolt jerked him out of the door
Witness stated that at the time of
the arrest he was very much excit-
ed on the prospect of going to jail.
He had lived in the Northwest since
his flight from New Mexico, spend
ing most of the time in South Dako-
ta, where he went by the alias of
'FTom Patterson He said that ne
fed from New Mexico only because
he was frightened He knew that
sheriff and jailer of Chaves county,
and that ne feared il / treat
ment at the hands of the officer in
case he was captured He went by
the name of Tom Patterson to con-
ceal his identity because he thought
he might be wanted as an accessory
to the killing of Rainbolt. He did not
fear the punishment of the law, but
feared the friends and relatives of
Rainbolt AS to what his fears were
founded upon, there was an argument
as to the admissibility of testimony
and the jury was withdrawn while
the matter was being considered, and
after hearing the testimony which it
was desired to produce, Judge
Pope took the question of it's admis-
sibility under advisement. The jury
was recalled and court adjourned
until this morning.

A THRIFTY CLERK
On Small Salary He Acquired Coal
Stock to the Value of Seventy-five
Thousand Dollars, For Favors Ex-
tended.

Philadelphia, Pa, June Thor
oughness characterizes the investiga-
ton by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission as to the relations of the
railroads with the soft coal and oil
industries Attorney Glasgow for the
Commission stated today that ow-
ing to the large number of witnesses
still to be heard the sessions of the
present hearing would continue all
this week and probably portion of
next week
A G. Gibbs, general superintendent
of motive power of the Pennsylvania
railroad, stationed at Altoona, was
recalled and asked by Mr.. Glasgow
if it was not a fact that most of the
soft coal purchased by the Pennsyl-
vania R. R. Co came from the Key
stone Coal and Coke Company s
works and those of Col. Alfred Hicks.
NIL SlDuS lIIdL II W do d lcSI WI :
Glasgow then wanted to know if it
was merely a coincident that the
company coal was furnished by con-
Germs in which the railroad officials
were interested, or whether he had
been instructed by any higher Off
cial as as to what companies should
furnish fuel coal. Mr. Gibbs explain
ed, as he did when previously on the
stand, tnat it was a custom for the
railroad to assist new operators by
purchasing fuel coal from them
Testifying before the Commission
today, Joseph K. Aiken, who had
been chief clerk in the superintend-
ents office of the Monongahela divis-
ion Of the Pennsylvania road, reveal
ed almost as startling evidence as
that given by Joseph P. Boyer before
the Commission yesterday. On sal
ary which ne said varied from $50
to $125 per month, Aiken had purch-
ased stock in different coal compa-
MES amounting to nearly $4,000 He
admitted having received gifts OF
cash from the coal operators on the
Pennsylvania lines, and said he had
also received $50 a month for several
months from the company store.
Joseph Boyer, of the Pennsylvania
road, VINO yesterday testified before
the Commission to having received
large sums of money from producers
of coal on the Pennsylvania railroad
vice of the railroad company today
When the matter was brought to the
attention of President Cassatt he di
rected the immediate discharge OF
Boyer.
