FARMERS CAN HAVE STILLS.

Duluth News Tribune:
Senator Aldrich had the novel ex-
perience at the close of this session of
congress to sit in his seat and witness
his own overwhelming defeat. For
the moment, at least, the dog
resumed control of its own tail and
fairly glowed with delight at the
sensation of its wilful wag.
1t was the amendment of the free
alcohol bill that moved the grave
but rather plastic body to break
away from the hands of the moulder.
1t had been changed to relieve it of
its red tape and make it possible
for the farmer, or a group of farm
ers, to have their own still. The
sections of which the customs de-
partment had taken inspired advan-
tage to make denaturing prohibitive
outside central distillery were cut
out or remodeled in the house.
The bill then went to the finance
committee of the senate, consisting
of Mr.. Aldrich and others, where he
added clause that there should be
a "stock-keeper' in charge at every
still to prevent illicit operations.
The real purpose, of course, was to
prevent the manufacture of the
product to get away from the con-
troll of the senator's friends and so
make it real rival of gasoline for
heating and for motive power.
The amendment was reported and
the people at once took it for grant
ed that it would take the usual
course of all measures heretofore
advocated by the senator and pass.
But things had been happening all
over the country that made their in
fiuence felt even in the protoplasmic
conscience of the senate. The Aid
rich amendment had few votes out
side the members of his committee,
and the aged solon smiled sort of
sickly smile as he thought probably
of the rather comic contrast of his
today with his had-beenness.

" SUNNY MURPH."

The cheerfulest (which is easier
than the most cheerful') man that
comes to Hutchinson was here this
week, says the Hutchinson Independ-
ent. He is Joseph L. Murphy, spec
ial agent of the John Hancock Mutt
ual Life ms. Co. Mr.. Murphy has
been blind for years-a thousand
years it must seem to him but new
er a croak, or frown or complaint
comes from this man Murphy, who
never sees the sun, nor the sunlight,
the trees, nor the birds, nor the fac
es of the friends who grasp his hand
where'er he goes. He always puts
a smile and his laugh has real music
in it. He might be a burden to him
self and friends but he simply wont
be. His leisure hours are often
spent in playing cards any old game
of cards. He carries deck of his
own on which the face of each card
is indicated to him by embossed fig
ures which are as plainly to be read
by his opponent as by himself. And
it may be remarked that he usually
holds his own in a game Of. this kind
with his eyes shut.
