This is asuperior brand of pure old whiskey, ‘and while in every respect and for every put Pose for which # pure whiskey is required, it is unequalled by any other whiskey, in addition it is especially prescribed for medicinal use by physicians everywhere, being entirely treed of fusel ofl by the peculiar and secret of its distillation, whereby every trace of this cor- Tosive poison ‘is eliminated. It is the onl whiskey of the kind manufactured in the world: itis the only absolutely pure whiskey on the market of which the undersigned are the Gis- coverers and sole proprietors. It isa medicine ofestablished standard in the pharmacopcria, and is placed before the public as a medicinal Preparation of unexceptional excellence.

We impress upon our irienas the im- Portance of demanding oura as the only pure whiskey, of getting exactly what they want ‘and what physicians prescribe; to insist upon having the best and to besatiafied with nothing else but the genuine, They have been forewarned that there is as much difference between good and bad whis- key as there is between food and potson,simply because our absolutely pure whiskey 15 a food and stimulant combined and common whiskey | 18 nothing else than poison. ‘The druggist or dealer who fora paltry gain unscrupulously palms off upon the ignorant and the sick an inferior and adulterated whiskey, 1sas culpable 448 a man who would sell virulent poison re- gardless of consequences, ‘There is no other whiskey on the market like it, either in purity or excellence.

Views of Citizens Regarding Mr. Wheat- Jey’s Nomination. Mr. N. W. Burchell said to a Srar reporter, speaking of the nomination of Mr. Wheatley as District Commissioner: “Mr, Wheatley comes of good stock, and is, furthermore, a succesatul business man. I think the nomination isa good one.”” Mr. Fred Pratt said: “Mr. Wheatley is a fine man, has good business qualities, and Is thor- oughly acquainted with the needs of the Dis- trict. Iam glad to hear of the appointment.” Mr. W. B. Moses said he was very much pleased to learn of this nomination. He re- arded Mr. Wheatley asa man, and as he find been successful with his own business, he would be competent to undertake public busi- ness, Mr. Lawrence Gatdner said: “Mr. Wheatle: {sa fine man, and one of our best citizens. ft ood appointment.” jofin Joy Edson was of the opinion that the President had shown some respect to the citi- zens of the District in this nomination, He hoped that Mr. Wheatley would be able to de- vote his entire time to the business of his office, anit was necessary, in bis opinion, and not en- deavor to carry on an extensive private busi- ness at the same time. Mr, W.C. Dodgo sald: “I think the appoint- ment is & very good one. I am somewhat sur- prised, however, that selections to office should continue to be made from the western part of the city exclusively.” Mr. 8. T. Thomas—“It's a good on Mr. Thomas Kirby—We want @ man of nerve, and I hope he 1s such a one. Iam not personally acquainted with bim, but judging from what is said he is the right man.” Mr. A.W: Kelly—“The appointment suite me, and I think will satisfy the people.” Mr. W. C.Stone—“Sam Wheatley will make a most energetic business Commissioner.” Chrigtian Ruppert—“Iv's a first-rate appoint- ment.” ——_—_er—____ Mr. Edmund's Speech. HIS REMARKS REGARDING ATTORNEY DUS- KIN’S SUSPENSION. Mr. Edmunds then proceeded to the case in question—that of Attorney for the southern dis- trietof Alabama, He read the form oforder of the suspeneion of Duskin and of the design tion of Burnett to succeed Duskin, He also read the resolution of the Senate calling for papers on file relating to the ministration of the office by Duskin and the letter of the ‘Attorney General refusing these papers, and Stating that the refusal was by direction of the President. He maintaiued that the uctot the President did not remove Duskin, but simply withheld from him the duties and’emoluments ofthe office, pending a decision of the matter by the Senate; that when the nomination of Burnett was sent to the Senate, Duskin was the U. 8. attorney for Alabama, and ee sition’ was that he should be removed. Mr. Ed- munds tontended that bad the Senate been a Jory it would have been its auty to ind out how akin had administered his office. Mr, Edmunds suid that in spite of sundry misstatements in the public press and by the President and by the minority of the judiciary committee, the case, as it stands, is that the President has asked the Senate to consent to the removal of Duskin and the ay intment of TRE PUBLIC SCHOOLS. What Trustees and Retiring Trustees Think of the Commissioners’ Plan. ‘MR, SMITH QOES NOT APPROVE IT. “I do not epprove of the Commissioners’ let- ter at all,” observed Mu James H.Sinith, whose resignation as member of the board has recently been accepted. “I am of the opinion that the powers and duties of the board should remain as they aro now, with the exception that the trastees shoutd be relieved from the duty of ap- proving requisitions for fuel. As I suggested to Mr. Webb, some one should be especially desig- nated for that purpose, and I'see that the Com- missioners will ask Congress to authorize the eppointment of a person to have superintend+ Specta the present system ies zoot om ata] 5 e present a an gentlemen could be appointed on the board who would not antagonize each other on gen- eral principles and thus manage to embroil the entire board with their personal ditferenees the management of the schools would go, slong smoothly and with good results, In undertak- ing to supervise the tment of teachers, for instance, I think that the Commissioners are undertaking a duty which they cannot be thoroughly acquainted with, and Feannot see bow it will work advantageously. The present azatem answers the porposeyand the entire new board.” vere MR. BROOKS THINKS THE NEW PLAN THE MOST VICIOUS THAT COULD BE DEVISED. John H. Brooks’ said to a Star re- Porter when asked what he thought of the Commissioners’ plan of school government as elaborated in their recent letter: “I think the Commissioners’ plan is the worst and most vicious that could have been devised; but,while holding to that opinion, I believe that there must be order and authority for the good of the schools, and am therefore willing to obey such directions as the Commissioners may give. I am desirous of learning further, bowever, what the Commissioners intend, and will ask for faller ee than is contained in their letter. I have notified the Commissioners that my resignation is ready whenever they want it, but Ihave refrained from geen rpg re- signing out of deference to the requests of my frieuds in and out of theschools,who think that Tshould undergo, personal Inesnventence and dissatisfaction, so long as it is not personal dis- grace, tor the good of the schools.” MR. CURTIS WILLING TO GIVE THR COMMIS- SIONERS' PLAN A TRIAL. “I am in favor of having the plan proposed by the Commissioners given a trial.” observed Mr. W.W. Curtis, “It seems to me that it will work well, and while there are some particu- lars as given in the letter which I think could be modified, the Commissioners have stated that it is their intention to make such changes as experience would su; st, and 1 have no doubt that the new plan will provesatisfactory. AsI have always maintained, it would be ad- visisable to have an entire new board to man- age the schools under this new arrangement, and as far as I am personally concerned my resignation is at the disposal of the Commis- sioners, as they have been tuformed. As fur as Tepresenting the people ot the District is con- cerned, it is my opinion that the board as now constituted will be as truly representative as it it was constituted of three members from each district, appointed by the Commissioners, who are theinselves appointed by the President and not elected by the people.” ser et District in Congrens. THE PUBLIC SCHOOL QUESTION. The House District committee will hold a meeting on Tuesday next to consider public school matters, and will give the Commissioners and any citizens who may de-ire to do so an opportunity to state their views in reterence to the proposed legislation.

Adverse reports were agreed upon to the bills to Heense engineers in the District of Co- lumbia, and to protect bottlers of the District. Both were afterwards reported adversely to the louse.

The purpose is to purchase a site in ‘the immediate vicinity of the present printing office and to erect thereon @ building for the storage of material appertaining 10 the public printing.
