cohsuMprlon OF WHISKY.

Because the report of the internal
revenue commissioner shows an in
crease In the revenue from distilled
spirits the liquor interests are using
it to bolster up their pet argument,
prohibition does not prohibit"
The reason for this increase is
found, not in the greater consumption
Of whisky by the people Of the United
States, but in various changing condi-
tions here and abroad. One Of these
Is set forth by the secretary Of the
treasury in the following statement: (:
Notwithstanding the spread Of pro-
hibition, collections on distilled spirits
for the first ten months of the fiscal
year showed an Increase over the cor
responding period of a year ago. This
is due In great measure to the effec-
tive enforcement Of the internal rev.
enue' tax on distilled spirits. It is
estimated that through the campaigns
Of the treasury department against
undergauging, equalizing and blockad-
ing in distilleries, the revenue of the
government has been increased by
probably $5,OOO.OOO annually"
A further explanation is that the
large quantity of spirits shipped from
this country to Africa to take the
place of the British product now
barred from shipment because of the
European war, is counted in the Sin
creased consumption" During the
year ending June 30. 1915. exports
amounted to 4 ,663. 600 gallons; during
the nine months, July, 1915, to March,
1915, 5,S5O,OOO gallons were exported.
Then again there has been steady
decrease In the supply of imported
liquors due to difficulties Of transpOr-
tation. Some of the foreign distillers
have opened branches in this country,
and the taxes on their output are now
added to the internal revenue of the
United States. s..s,.s =. -,
Other reasons might be given, but
these suffice to show how alert the
liquorites are to seize upon any appar-
ent advantage furnished by figures and
how prone the public is to arrive at
hasty conclusions. :, 1t is not within
the province Of the internal revenue
department to interpret its report or
to explain where or how the ta1-paid
liquor is actually used.
II the brewers and distillers believe
what they are loudly .clafmihg,, that
the internal revenue reports prove
that more liquor is sold under prohibi-
tion than under license, we shall find
them this falltlining up with the drys !;
we shall find them during the anti
election campaign working and spend
ing their millions to make six more
states and the territory of Alaska dry.

This is what the Home Life Insur-
ance company of New York has to say
about beer:
"Of all intoxicating drinks, it is the
most animalizing. 1t dulls the intel
lectual and moral and feeds the sens
ual and beastly nature. Beyond all
other drinks, it qualities for delib-
crate and unprovoked crime. In this
respect it is much worse than distilled
liquors. A whisky drinker will COM

CoIorado's Gold and Silver Production
Colorado was the greatest producer
of the precious metals in the entire
United States in, 1915. This state
mined $2.732,200 more gold and silver
combined than its nearest competitor,
California Colorado's total precious
metal production amounted to $780,
122,70O California's was $23,S90. 500.
California was the greatest gold pro-
ducer. turning out $22,547,400 worth
of metal. Colorado, which was sec
ond on the gold list, fell only .$16.600
behind California. But Colorado pro-
duced 1851 900 worth of silver-be-

Denver.-Still optimistic as to their
chances Of fighting the Mexicans
whom they regard as a foe to be
whipped sooner or later, the soldiers
at Golden Rifle Range are putting in
the last ticks in preparation for active
service on the border. The fact that
the Montana troops passed through
Denver on their way to the border has
encouraged the Colorado boys to be-
lieve that they. also. will go soon.
But whether they see active service
on the border or not, there are nearly
1900 well-trained soldiers at the Rifle
Range-men who can be counted upon
at any future time when the country
may need their services. The military
camp at Plattsburg, N. Y. was started
and military training given to those
who volunteered to attend, when
there was no other incentive to- mill

ity of war.

HIS FORMAL REPRIMAND.

DR.. Simon Parvin, an English clergy
man, was at times absurdly absent
minded. Once while he was visiting
in the home of a very great lady who
employed a large staff Of servants,
whom she kept under extremely rigid
control, it CHANGED that two young
foOtmen fell out about a pretty house
maid who had coquetted with both
and so far forgot themselves as to en-.
gage in fisticuffs. The old countess
was indignant. Her first intention
was to dismiss the culprits, but they
were excellent servants. and, more
over, the repentant maid tearfully in
terceded for them. The countess re-

to formal reprimand before the 9TH

Decide TO BUILD
UPTOWN CREAMERY
STOCKHOLDERS OF CO-OPERA-
TIVE ASSOCIATION WANT
NEW AND MODERN PLANT
DETAILS LEFT TO Committee
SITE FAVORED BETWEEN MARK.
SON LAUNDRY AND BORG
MANN WAREHOUSES;

Stockholders of the Sank Lake Co
Operative Creamery Association have
decided to build new creamery plant
with an uptown location. This de-
termination was reached at largely
attended meeting held Saturday af-
ternoon in the Commercial Club
Rooms.
Details of building plans and spec
ifcations, location, magnitude and
cost, as we'll as the manner of rails
ing the necessary funds, was left in
the hands of a committee composed
of w. E. Botz, H. G. Bergman,
Frank Unger, Charles Kortan and Sc
cretary George Strauss. This COM
mittee will report back at meeting
to be hel d at the Commercial Club
rooms at 10 o'clock on the morning Of
Sept. 18th.
Decision to build a new plan. was
reached after brief discussion. Secre-
tary Strauss pointed out that abso-
lutely necessary repairs to the present
building would cost not less than
$500. He averred that if these repairs
were made the association would have
only a shack of building at best. He
furnished statistics showing that a
new modern concrete creamery could
be erected at cost Of from $500 to
$4,000 on an uptown location.
Some of the stockholders held out
for repairing the present plant and
argued that location should not enter
into the issue. Among these was
A. H. Hendrickson, who, as the
spokesman, for the repair faction,
brought the question to head by
moving for a straight vote on build
ing or repairing. The result was 10
to 10 in favor of building. President
Botz Immediately appointed the build
ing committee to look after the de-
tails.
Sentiment was popular that the
creamery should be located up town
and three sites were mentioned. Feel
ing was strongly against MAINTAIN
ing the plant on its present site on the
river bank.
The most favored site was the lot
on North Main street between the
Markson laundry and the George t..
Rorpmann & Co. warehouses. Mr..
Borgmann and w. S. Dean have a.
greed to convey this property to the
association at nominal COST Mr.. Mark
son and Mr.. Bergman have also a.
greed to grant to the association long
term easements on private alleys so
that vehicles could pass from Main
street to the creamery and exit on
Second street, keeping all rigs IN line
with no inconvenience. Another con-
venience of this site is the offer OF
Mr.. Markson to furnish the creamery
with steam heat from his laundry
plant. thus eliminating the necessity
of installing boilers and heatll>t? ap-
paratus. -,
Other sites proffered were the Vo-
eel site on Third street between the
City Hall and the Rosenberger ga
rage and the Caughren site on
the alley just west of the Herald
building on Fourth greet. The form.
er site was discouraged because OF
the high price asked for the property
and the latter because of inadequate
alleys.
J. A. Caughren was present and
offered his aid in bringing the new
building project to elimination. The
mode of financing will undoubtedly be
by Joint vote of stockholders. Concrete
