NEARLY ALL MOONSHINE CON
TAINS DEADLY POISON.

Few people realize that in drinking
'moonshine' and many of the so-called
bonded Whistles that are now being
put ON the market by inscriptions
bootleggers, they are flirting with
death" says Carl Jackson, Federal
Prohibition Director for Wyoming.
During the past few months practi-
cally every bottle of the so-called
bonded whiskey' which has come into
the possession of the Federal authori-
ties in Wyoming has proven, upon an
alysis, to be nothing but a cheap grade
of moonshine, doctored up Inc contain
ed in bottles bearing fake revenue
stamps. These WHISTLES have invari-
ably been found to contain from 4 to
S per cent fusel oil, which fusel oil is
one Of the most deadly poisons known.
A great many of the moonshiners who
make this filthy stuff + under the
impression that they can eliminate this
fusel oil from their product by a pro
cess of filtration. How wrong this sup
position is an be illustrated by Il test
that was made by one of the chemists
OF this department recently.
"a quantity of some of this so-called
bonded whiskey' which had been seized
in a raid was tested by this government
chemist and it was found to contain
5S per cent fusel oil. This same wills
key was treated and filtered three
times: once through wood charcoal,
one through bone charcoal and once
through blood charcoal. AT the compile
tiOn of this test it was found that the
fusel oil content was the same as it
, 1922-05-25

had been before treatment, IS per
cent. Thus it will be seen that no pro-
cess which is available to the moon
sinner will prove effective in Kidding
the product of their Illicit stills from
this most deadly poison. Any person
who drinks this stuff is not only run
ming II chance of getting an overdose of
this poison which would cause instant
death, but is also taking n chance Of
getting just a sufficient o of it
to cause blindness, defective mentality,
or other numerous ailments which re-
suit from the introduction of this
poison into the system. The public is
cautioned against the continued use of
this poisoned whiskey."

To the Republican Voters of Wyoming:

To the Republican Voters Of Wyoming:
Since Wyoming was admitted to Statehood it
has been the general rule to give State officials who
have been faithful to their trust a second term this
rule, however, not applying to the office of State
Treasurer.
One term of service upon important boards quail
flies the official to give better service during the sec
ond term. He becomes familiar with the laws and
other matters connected with the State Government.
Having served as State Treasurer, | believe that
I am qualified to fill the office of Secretary of State
such service Therefore, it is my purpose to offer
myself to the people for the position of Secretary of
State, subject to your determination at the primary
election in August.
If elected l will pledge to you that l will give my
undivided attention to the office and the same square
deal you have received from me during the time |
have filled the office of State Treasurer.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
OOCCCCCt

Washington, 1T is difhcult 10
imagine what Lady Aston hopes to
gain either for herself or for godo
feeling among nations by sighting re-
marks concerning the United States
says the Republican Publicity Associ-
alton. ION her return to England, al
ter a visit to her native land, she de-
liyered an address in which she said,
anon gother things, America is
bound TO have a foreign policy That
statement means, if it means anything
at all, that America today has no for
eign policy. We deny the assumption
that the United States has no foreign
policy.
1T is true that the United States has
no policy of foreign aggression - no
desire to subjugate weak nations or
take undue advantage of our strength.
It is also true that we have no policy
which will permit us to make the 'su-
preme sacrifice proposed by President
Wilson when he advocated American
participation in the league of nations.
But because We are neither aggressive
and grasping. nor as yielding as some
would like to have us, it does not fol-
low that the United States has no for
eign policy at all.
"Our foreign policy has been ane of
live and help live.' We have under
taken to maintain here nation In
which the people may enjoy the great
est individual freedom consistent with
due respect for the rights of others,
and we are willing that similar priv
ileges shall be maintained nevery
other land. When that policy Of help
ing others to live and enjoy freedom
brought US into conflict with Spain,
and gave us dominion over former
Spanish islands. We did not use that
dominion for our material aggrandize-
ment but solely for the well-being and
happiness of the peoples who had
come under our control. Never has it
been charged that the United States
has been an oppressor.
Our foreign policy has been to in
crease friendship among nations and
to settle differences by conference, ar
bitration or adjudication, rather than
by force of arms. but we have never
yielded our right to control our own
domestic affairs nor made ourselves
subject to a superstate. We have set
tied boundary disputes by arbitration
and have induced other nations to do
rhe same. We have been prompt and
liberal in response to the cry fdis-
tress, from whatever land 1t has come,
but We have not let our sympathies be-
tray us into leagues with national dis
| honor.

sistent in avoiding political affiliation

Great shaggy, near-shawls of brush
wool with astounding borders and lots
of fringe! Just the sort to challenge
any intent Of Mr.. Jack Frost. Then
there are the fascinating fiber silk
kind which supply their wealth of
color to the erstwhil, somber tailored
suit:
Perhaps you are of the skirt and
lingerie blouse persuasion. If so, one
needs bit of protection about the
shoulders, and what more apropos
than one of the much befringed and
cheerfully bordered brush wool scarfs?
1t is quite the clever thing to wear a
wool scarf matched to ones sweater.
One thing calls for another and really
to complete the ensemble one should
