"RECIE" ToBAcco MONOPOLY.
A Proposition 70 Bring the Foreign Syn.
dicate TO its Knees.
NatIonal Tobaeco Reylew.

This worg "regie" has special sig
niicance in this connection. 1t is d.
rived from the Latin word trek,
which means king-ruler, government.
Hence the old maxim, ''the will OF the,
King is law" 1t may not be known
that the leading governments OF Europe
are tobacco nonopolist Thus France,
Spain, Austria, Italy, and even Ger
many, respectively control the tobacco
business within their government linn
its. And they rellize enormous reye-
nues therefrom. The revenue Of France
from this source alone is over $4,000,
000a year, and the others have similar>
profits. These countries, particularly
France, Austria, Spain and Italy--the
Big Four-have adopt9dthe regie sys-
tenn in the tobacco busines. Each gov
ernment has its own respective govern
ment concractor to buy and furnish
the amount OF tobabco required Icy the
year.
France, for instance, takes eight to
ten thousand hogsheads of Kentucky
tobacco a year, Italy eighteen to twenty
three thousand, Spain eighteen to
twenty thousand, Austria four to six
thousand, all Of which are bought by
the Reggie agency. Those contractors
form union among themselves, and
employ an agent at each principle to-
bacco market in the United States, and
and dictates TO their agents what prices
they shall pay in American markets,
and the amount to buy, and give spe-
cial instructions that there must be no
competition among or between them,
and il there be any, it is for purpose,
and Of short duration.
The Reggie system is sort OF tobac-
co syndicate established by and between
these countries. 1t is tacit complex
government syndicate, to control the
tobacco trade OF the world; to make al
the revenue possible fof themselves. Ii
is based on the old feudal parental
principle OF the Kings--the people nre
our children and or slaves, and our
will is law.
This Regie system letit b. observed
operates liueQIilly and unfairly upon
American tooaeco grswers. ~ much
go in Iced, that W. notice it has now
I become 4 taatter otgrave and earnest
correspondence between government
officials at Washington and some OF our
leading tobacco growers. TO success
/ fully handle the question with the
European Big Four, it is tacitly admit
ted that the subject must be relegated
to diplomatic manipulation, or else all
American growers must organize them
selves into a grand tobacco union Tor
self-protection. We suggest the name
of-The Anericon Tobacco Growers
Union.
This we think, might supply what
diplomacy would lack, and fetch the
Big Four Syndicate to its knees.

ness of fillibustering against the intro

necessary revenue to any pension bill
This is clearly and almost confessedly
done to catch the soldier vote.
After a good deal of speech making
which changed 30 votes, Fitz John
Porter has gotten safely through the
senate, having passed the house some
months ago. Unless President Cleye-

Goodnight TO chestnut braids of hair,
Goodnight unto the perfect mouth,

Baitmor. Manuiacsacc.s' Record
The past two weeks lave witnessed
the organization ot enterprises that are
destined to have, a iar-reaching in.iu-
ence upon the future OF the South. Two
enterprises, for which the preliminary
arrangements have been consummated
during that period, claim pre-eminence
in importance over anything that has
been reported in the South for long
time. One is the establishment by the
Roane Iron Co., OF Bessemer steel
works at Chattanooga to turn out $50
tons of rails day, the vast importance
OF which to the industrial interests Of
the South can hardly be overestimated
the other is a signing Of contract by
Enoch Ensley, the president OF the
Pratt Coal & Iron Co., and other leading
iron men, to complies the Birmingham
& Sheffield Railroad and to build 100
ton furnace at the latter place. The
building OF this road will result in &
great development of almost unlimited
coal and iron resources as yet practi
cally untouched. The work of Mr.
Ensley and his associates will probably
fully equal in importance the establish
ment OF steel works at Chattanooga. 1r
addition 10 these two great underta
kings, there have been large number
OF other enterprises organized that vii
largely add to the prosperity OF th'
South. At Newports News, Va, th'
tidewater terminus Of the Chesapeake
& Ohio Railway, arrangements havi
been completed for the construction 0
dry dock that will involve the expen
diture Of probably $500, 900, and ma.
result in the establishment there OF al
immense iron ship building yard.
$1C0, 900 compeny has been organizes
at Calera, Ala, to build an iron furnac
and charcoal works. AZ Chattanoog
the Lookout Rolling Mill viii inves
$35 900 in building wrought.iron pip
works, which will be the only establish
ment Of the kind in the South. Anon

"The Pope he leads q happy life,
He fears nor marriage care, nor strife;
He drinks the best OF Rhenish wine,
would Tie Pope's gay lot were mine.
"Bnt then all happy's not his life,
He has not maid nor blooming wife,
Nor child has he to raise his hope,

"The Sultan better pleases me,
His is a life OF jollity;
His wives are many as his WILL

And dwell In mine own yaterland;

MAKING GOOD WISHES COME
TRUE.

These are the days when nearly
every one we meet, friend or neighbol
only, has some kindly wish on his lips
1t is fitting that it should be so. The
true spirit of Christmas is, "GoOd will
to men," and every one should be
touched by it, and the spirit ought to
last over into the New Year. 1t is we'll
that for one brief period at least in the
year every mans heart should soften
toward his fellows, and every mans
lips should speak kindly words. One
of the saddest things about life is, that
with such boundless power to give
cheer by our speech to others, most of
us pass through the world in silence,
locking up in our own hearts the
thoughtful and helpful words which,
if spoken, would minister so much
strength and inspiration. We wait till
people die, and then we say, without
reserve or stint, the things that their
hearts hungered, through long, weary
years to hear, but never heard.
''What siences we keep, year after year.
With those who are most near to us and DEAR
We live beside each other day by day,
And speak of myriad things, but seldom say
The full sweet word that lies just in our reach,
Beneath the commonplace of common speech,
Then out of sight, and out of reach they go
These close familiar friends who loved us so;
And, sitting in the shadow they have left,
Alone, with loneliness, and sore bereft.
We think with vain regret of some kind word
That once we might have said and they have
heard"
How much better it would be if not
only at the New Year and on birthdays
but on all days, we gave freer rein to
our lips in speaking kindly and cheer
ing words! The good will is in our
breasts, no doubt; why not give ex-
preston to it? 1t is very sad when
nothing less than the death of our
friends can draw from our selfish and
laggard hearts the debt of love and of
that we owe them West

CARE OF ANIMALS IN WINTER.

The American humane association
Eoffers the following suggestions rela-
live to fowls, horses and cattle to per-
IONS having these in charge, in the
& nOrthern ATTITUDES, during the winter
months.
s Do not compel domestic fowls to
Icing captured by owls and other enc
hies, the swaying of the branches upon
Which they are sitting will prevent
<hem from getting rest; while in
he severely cold weather, thus expos
ID, feet and combs are frozen and the
Bird is so benumbed as to make it i'm
POSSIBLE for it to be of much profit on
he farm. Securely sheltered from tin e
II ind and storm, and allowed to sit on
broad roOst, feet are thus kept warm,
B freshing rest is obtained and the
owl is much stronger, healthier and
81 ore profitable to it's owner.
81 Do not clip horse during the winter
honths. With the same prOpriety we
might cut the hair from a dog or shear
b sheep at this season of the year. The
argument in behalf of the practice is
that the horse in perspiratiOn will dry
more quickly if the hair is short. If
the animal is thoroughly blanketed and
kept in Il sheltered or warm place, after
being driven, no danger results from
perspiration, whatever the length of
Ehe hair; while the horse that has been
1eprived of it's coat in the winter time
buffers perpetually while being exposed
q the cold.
1t is a cruelty inflicted upon beauti-
ll carriage horses for the purpose of
$tyle. Blessed is the ordinary work.
horse, in the winter time, for, however
much it may perspire, it is allowed to
barry its full growth of hair during the
bold weather.
Do not leave cattle to stand SILVER
ing, while extremities often freeze, in
The snow storms and severe winds of
Einter, when a little time would suf-
ice to construct of boards, rails or
Oles, support upon and around
which may be placed hay, straw or
weeds, thus making a shelter that may
comfortably protect them. Cattle kept
b fairly warm condition throughout
he winter will, as mixers, give a larger
nd better yield of milk, and as beeves
Eill take on flesh much more rapidly
han if left exposed to inclement
Gather.
Aside from a question of humanity,
he more attention and care that is
Bestowed upon animals, with a view
b their comfort, the more will they be
a service and a source of profit to their
