In the {our years since then.
Persons interested in the distillery,
Mr. Moore stated. believed the mon~

port to the American coast would be
the means of resuscitatlng the le-
lande' rum running trade and add to
Bahamu's revenues now at low ebb

Speaking of the proposed rye
whiskey distillery. n Bahama neuro-
paper remarks that if the Bahamas
can supply the unsatisfied demand
for rye. whiskey. the colony may
once again have a. monopoly and an
tract business with a. revenue of $3
for each proof gallon distilled. Also
it may again be able to insist that
buyers take Scotch. along with tho-
ryé. If this happens the paper aux-
xeeta that the duty on imported
writ-keys be raised to :8 again. and
kept. there.
A your ego the tar!!! on liquors
was reduced from 86 to 83 a case in
order to stop the decline in the trai-
flc. Through the reduction it is
claimed the colony lost more than
$500,000 in revenue. A proposal .
now before the legislature calls for
a further reduction to $1 a case. i

that when the memnera of the House

they would dispose of the question.
