Thoughtful Thinkers
Thoughts
For Thoughtful Thinking: Men.

1t has been frequently charged
that American cigarettes are inju-
rious, and this is undoubtedly true
of many brands; and the reason is,
that instead OF being made of pure
tobacco they are largely adulterated
with opium and other injurious ma
terials
The representative of large
Southern tobacco house, who has
made the matter a study, says that
the extent to which drugs are
used in 'doctoring' cigarettes is
appalling, valerian and the tincture
OF opium being used to a frightful
extent.
The paper coverings are also a
frightful source of evil Cotton-pa-
- is largely used, and is manufac-
tured from the filthy scrapings of the
rag-pickers. The lime and other
substances used in bleaching have a
very harmful influence on the mem
brane of the throat and nose, and are
frequently the prime cause of the
throat and nasal troubles which fol-
low cigarette smoking.
Rice-paper is the only cigarette
covering that is not injurious, and as
this is expensive, it is but little used,
although claimed to be by nearly
every manufacturer.
Believing that smokers realize the
need of a new cigarette made from
the best pure tobacco and free from
all adulteration, Messrs. w. [. Black
well & Co., the famous smoking to-
bacco manufacturers, have just put
on the market pure cigarette, called
''Blackwell's Durham Cigarette. y
They guarantee it to be made only of
pure tobacco, and that the best, and
the wrappers of pure rice. paper.
A pure cigarette is a greater nov
city than most people think. You'll
know their brand by the BULL on
each package. You have seen that
BULL before Of course you have,
and you don't need to be told that he
is the trademark of Blackwell & Co.,
and that any tobacco that has that
trade mark is purity itself.
DIR. August Voelcker, f. R. s., Con
sulting Chemist of the Royal Agri
cultural Society, after making thor
ough analysis of various samples OF
leaf tobacco, says:
With regard to the leaf tobacco from
which Blackwell's Durham Cigarettes
are manufactured, I find merely traces
of nitrates, which perhaps is one of the
reasons this tobacco has very mild
taste, for in all biting strong tobaccoes,
| l find, invariably, that nitrates are pres
ent in considerable proportion. Anoth-
er and still more important fact is that
this tobacco contains so little nicotene.
Strong and inferior tobaccoes are found
| to eOntain much more nicotene, some as
high as three or four times as much as
1 find in this tobacco.
On your way down town to day
try package of these cigarettes
Smoke them carefully, and then dom
ever buy any more-unless you thinl
it would really be good thing fol
you to smoke the genuine, pure ar
ticle. Ii you prefer drugs and adul
terations, you won't like these; ant
in that case it is hardly worth you
while to waste time and money il
trying them, but if; well, that il
for YOU to say.

missioner of fpensions in reply to the

OHIO.
Two Ohio Senators Thirsting for
Blood.
One of them is Lodged in Jail.

COLUMBUS, OHIO, February Last
week an alteration occurred on the
debate in the senate between Senator
Robert Fishburn, of Coleton, and
Senator Smyth, of Charleston. 1t
was rumored that Fishburn had made
threats of personal vengeance against
Smyth. Yesterday morning both were
arrested by the sheriff. Dispositions
regarding an anticipated breach of
the peace having been made by two
members of the Legislature, the two
senators were carried for trial before
Justice Marshall, who required each to
give bond in the sum of SIS, 900. Upon
an understanding that the matter
was personally adjusted, the
information upon which the
warrants had been issued was
privately withdrawn. Late in the
afternoon Sunday Fishburn was
again arrested upon an affidavit of
citizens and committed to Jail.
Friends are making strenuous efforts
to effect reconciliation, which it is
thought will transpire to>day.

Tennessee Official Fat.
Special to the Cincinnati Commercial.

Special to the Cincinnati Commercial.
WASHINGTON, January 30.-The con-
test over several of the more impor~
tant Federal offices in Tennessee will
be, it is understood, ended within a
day or two by the nomination of gen,
tlemen in every way satisfactory to
the Republican Representatives from
Tennessee and to the people of their
respective districts The nomirgs
tions which it ii thought will be sent
to the Senate tomorrow are William
f. Poston, district attorney, Men
phis; Charles W. Schultz, postms5-
ter at Memphis, and Judge Andrew
McLain, district attorney at Nash
vile.
Poston is an able and active young
Republican, man of fine literary
abilities and legal attainments
Schultz is prominent and well-to
do business man of high character
and standing, and with an enviable
record as a soldier and a citizen.
Judge Andrew McLain was one of
the 100000 Tennesseeans who stood
by the Union in 1876. He is a
man of talent and culture. He pos
sesses high standing in society, and
the respect and esteem of his fellow
citizens. He was on the Supreme
Bench of Tennessee in reconstruc-
ion days.
Schultz displaces Mrs. Thomson,
an appointee of Hayes, who
has held the office since the
death of her husband and predeces>
sor during the yellow fever epidemic
Mrs. Thompson's inefficient adninis-
tration of the Memphis post-offce
has been reported upon by compe>
tent and careful postofiice inspectors.
Speaking of Tennessee appint
ments in general, and of those in his
own district in particular, Repre-
resentative Moore, of Memphis, said
to your correspondent tonight /:
"Tte purpose of the Republican
leaders in Tennessee is to convert it
into Republican State 1t can be
done. It will be done some day.
The only practical way of doing it
is to build up the Republican
party. Around it all liberals can coal,
esce, and with it move forward to
victory. The only practical way of
hlilding up the Republican party in
shat State is to put hard working
Republicans in the Federal offices.
A man ought not to be appointed to
a Federal Office simply because he
will make a good officer, nor simply
because he is good Republican, but
he should be appointed to Office, if
at all, because he will be a good
officer, and because he is a good Re
publican. wouldn't think of rec
ommending man because he was a
good Republican worker, unless I
knew he would reflect credit on the
party by his eficacyin the eadministra
ton of his Office. We want, too, to
put men of good social standing to
the front In other words, we want
to appoint our best men. That's ex-
actly what we propose to do. When
l came to Congress every post~offce
in my district except four was held
by a Democrat, mossback
bourbon Democrat. One by one
they are being rooted out, all
the non Presidential offices being
filed by the Post Office Department
with the best Republicans we can in
duce to serve. Before long there
won't be four Democratic postmas-
ters in my district It will be just
SO all over the State. The Adminis>
tration is at our back, and we are
| fighting to win"

Mr.. Statham is the gentleman, Read

previous to the Virginia election, was
nominated by the President in place
of former Republican and Union
