Charlotte Chronicle: Commissioner
Yerkes, of the Internal Revenue bu-
reau, has come forward with a state
ment that the farmers can establish
distilleries for denatured alcohol at
an expense as low as 5000. de ex-
plains that II a farmer or other per-
son desires to go into the business OF
manufacturing denatured alcohol, at
a plant however small, he will be re-
ouired to construct his plant In the
manner prescribed by the general laws
and regulations He will be required
to give a bond, the effect OF which
will be to prevent him from defraud-
ing the government Of the tax on any
distilled spirits produced by him. He
will be required to establish distii-
lery warehouse; to deposit the spirits
produced by him in this warehouse;
to establish a denatured bonded ware
house and to tax pay or denature. just
as he may wish, the alcohol produced
by him. All Of this will be done un-
der government supervision, but the
government pays for this supervision.
The manufacturer Of alcohol does not
pay one cent of it. There Is no objec-
ton to a farmer manufacturing his
alcohol in "his back yard" provided
he wants to establish a distillery
there. But mind you, this stun, the
manufacture Of which Yerkes is talk.
ing about, is not good to drink. 1t Is
alcohol in name, but is poison as
deadly as strychnine.

TUESDAY, DECEMBER IS. 1906.

SENATOR Bailey Of Texas, is said to
be in great danger Of failure of re-
election. The principal charge against
him is that during the time he was so
loud -mouthed in his opposition to the
Standard Oil company and other trusts
he was filling his pockets from the
Waters Pierce Oil company, part of
the Standard. the money coming to
him for alleged services as attorney.
It is a fact that Mr.. Bailey's actions
have been rather peculiar.

After the Moonshiners,

HTICT
Under date of yesterday, a cores
pondent sends the following from
Kings Creek: state Constables
Hayes and Dean Of Spartanburg, this
morning found and seized an Illicit
distillery. The find was made between
the premises of Messrs. Wylie Wells
and w. ]. Mullinax, on a branch that
empties into Clark's Fork. The outfit
was a brand new one and was still hot
when found. The still was copper, and
first class in every particular. The
operators had made their escape. The
.constables destroyed the beer stands
and burned other parts of the outfit
r reports are true, Illicit distilling is
quite common in the neighborhood OF
the mountain. Patronage Is also
good"
Negro Had the Whisky.
Mention was made last Friday OF
the fact that Sheriff Brown had sent
Deputy Sheriff Quinn to Guthriesville
to investigate a breaking into the de-
pot the night before. Deputy Quinn
was accompanied by Mr. s. c. Smith
and the two officers were armed with
search warrants. 1t seems that three
cases of whisky, containing one gal
lon each, had been stolen. A part of
an empty case was found some dis
tance from Guthriesville, and in the
barn of George Smith, a negro who
lives about a mile and half from the
station a full case was found. Smith
himself was pretty full Of whisky. He
claimed that he knew nothing Of the
case Of liquor found in his barn. He
was arrested and committed to jail.

According to Chandler w. Riker, in
a speech in Newark, he together with
former Governor Werts, Mr.. Black,
Sheriff West, and Major Carl Lentz,
as members of the Equal Taxation
commission, were the first to call at
tention to railroad influences and I'M
dervaluations Of railroad property,
and with the assistance of Senator Col
by, Mayor Pagan and George L. Rec
ord they got the equal taxation bill
through the legislature. This bill COM
pels assessors to assess property at its
full value as they are doing this year,
and it is for this reason the tax bills
that will soon be sent out are expect
ed to be so much higher than ever be-
fore. This demand for equal valuation
came from both parties, as it was part

The most speclous plea put forth by
the new idea politicians is for the peo-
pie to rise in their might and prevent
the bosses from selecting candidates in
advance Of the primaries, and yet this
is the very thing they are doing them
selves. There is this difference, how
ever; the leaders or " bosses A" are men
who have been selected by the voters
Of a party to represent them and who
take up the subject in an impersonal
manner, the selection being a question
Of location and availability rather than
Of individuality. For instance, last
fall there were several candidates for
the shrievalty nomination in and about
Morristown. When they applied to
the party leaders they were told that
as a number of the county officials
were from this immediate vicinity the
nomination in all fairness should 90 to
another part Of the county. Some of
these disappointed aspirants, although
office holders for years, are the most
vigorous declaimers against "boSsism. Z

WHAT seems almost too good news
to be true is the report from the Phil
ippines that vaccination is a preventa-
i've Of cholera Twelve cases and nine
deaths were reported in twenty-four
bours. A test made Of the vaccine
since the outbreak Of the disease shows
that it acts as an absolute preventa-
tive. OF the many natives IN the in
fected districts who have been treated
with the virus none have developed
the disease, and the same is true q
the health officials who also were vac
cinated.
