E. D. L. QUITS.

The RECORD is authorized to
give official notice that E. D. L.
Cults of Pioche, has declined the
nomination for State Treasurer
on the Republican ticket. Mr..
Cults gives as his reasons, his
inability to make a personal
canvas of the State on account
of his declining health and that
he could not afford to sacrifice
his party by inviting defeat.
Mr.. Cults is man of mature
years, passing seventy years Of
age and does not desire to in
cumber reposibility so grave as
is attached to that of state
treasurer. He loves his party
and feels that he is not physically
able to make the campaign. He
is one of the very few of his age
who has never voted any place
except in Nevada and no ticket
except that of asRepublican. 1t is
to be seriously regretted that
Mr.. Cults has declined, for in
every way he is competent, his
integrity is unquestioned and his
loyalty to his party and his
friends is remarkable.

Manager of the Nevada-Utah

A FARMERS DISTlLLERY.
How Farmers Nav Engage in the Manu-
facture of Denatured Alcohol

Internal Revenue Commissioner Yer
kes, answering an inquiry recently as
to how many gallons Of denatured al
cohol viii approximately be needed in
the industries for 1907, says:
Having absolutely nothing to base
an estimate upon, it is not possible for
me to make an estimate as to the Qran-
tity of denatured alcohol needed
At present there are forty distilleries
in the United States manufacturing
what might be termed commercial al
cohol."
IN reply to criticism Of the law on
the ground that regular distillerieso on
ly can engage in the manufacture Of
denatured alcohol, enabling the whis-
key trust to secure practically mono
poly, Mr. Yerkes said:
This office knows of no process by
which alcohol can be manufactured
except by distillation, and as regular
distlleries are the only kind recog-
niZed nv the Law. alcohol manufactured
under the supervision of this depart
lnent must be manufactured at regular
distillerieS There are absolutely no
limitations as to the size of a distillery
that can be operated under the law.
There are over 900 distileries in OPP
~ y -
spirit producing capacity is less than
thirty gallons. Many Of these were
set mp on an outlay of less than $500,
SO far as the internal revenue laws are
concerned, either in theory or practice
the smallest and crudest distiliery can
produce alcohol, if as business prop
osition it is deemed advisable to do so.
The small distlleries have always
been treated by this department with
the same consideration as the larger
ones.
IF a farmer or other person desires
70 go into the business Of manufacture
ing denatured alcohol, at "a plant how
ever small, he will be required to CON
struct his plant in the manner pre-
scribed by the general laws and regu
lations. He will be required to give
bond, the effect of which is to prevent
him from defrauding the government
OF the tax on any distilled spirits pro-
duced by him. He will be required to
establish distillery warehouse; to de-
post the spirits produced by him in
this warehouse; to establish dauatur-
Ing bonded warehouse, and to tax pay
or denat,re, just as he may wish, the
alcohol produced 10y him. All cf this
will be done under government super
vision, but the government pays for
this supervision. The manufacturer of
alcohol does not bear / cent of it.
There is no objection To farmer man
ufacturing his alcohol in his back
yard provided he wants to establish "a
distillery there. If you will take the
trouble to investigate You win find, in
my opinion, that the laws and regula-
tions relating to the manufacture of
alcohol in Germany do not differ to
any great extent from the laws and
regulations in this country"

The confusion over land titles re-
sultipg from the destruction OF title
records in the fire, and the consequent
filing OF a mass OF suits against the
world to restore title to property. as
provided by the BIeEnerney law. makes
il necessary for property owners to
use the utmost care in protecting their
property rights
Thousands of suits to restore title
are being filed. and aside from the
possibility Of mistakes occurring in the
description Of land. the methed of
procedure allows OF a big chance for
the practice OF fraud By persons who
