HOW CIGARS ARE MADE.

Making Up the Cheering Weed by Hand
ind by Machine-The Grades.
The finest grade of tobacco comes from
Havana, and Is used for what is called filling.
The wrapper used mostly throughout the
Union is the Sumatra leaf, and is the hand
soonest and best in use In the first place, all
tobacco is moiStcned with water, and left
standing between twcnty-fOur and forty
eight hours, according TO the texture of the
tobacco 1t is then stripped, that is, the stem
j. taken out, and the leaf opened and spread
between two boards for the purpose OF keep
ing it open, and of giving it a fat surface.
In this stage the leaf is dried and worked into
cigars as filters The greatest prccaution Is
always taken that the filler lie perfectly
dry, or it cannot be snokesl, and, therefore,
the cigar would not fulfill its purpose in the
least
Cigars are rolled on fiat stones by deft
motion quite HdeScribable To those who have
not seen it, The rolling is but the work of
an instant. The tobacco is laid on the stone,
the practiced fingers touch it-One minute
more and there is a cigar of perfect proper
tions, which is rapidly passed along TO the
next man, who snips OFF the pointed end with
u smaH cutting machine made for the pur-
pose, after which it is passed TO another man,
who ties il up into bundle with many others
of its kind.
As rule, the inside wrapper, called the
binder of a cigar, is composed of either Con
necticut or Wisconsin tobacco, which, on ac-
count of its being very thin and timSy, and
having little taste, does not in the least mar
the taste of the Havana filler. Although
there are great many cigars made without

THURSDAY EVENING. AUGUST u. 1886
A Pen Picture.

The greatest scab that can fa>ten itself
upon a party. is the man who endeayOrs to
make his personal QuarrelS, with large and
powerful element in the community where
he resides, the fight of the party 10 which he
pretendS 10 belong. He endeaycrS, by ms
money, and posing as leader, to control
and faSten his troubles upon the party.
Ills presumed leadership is very much the
same a. that OF a volunteer aid, on militia
coloners staff in time of peace. They both
get along very nicely as long as there Is
peace and plenty, but rs soon as an issue
arises they act as millstones around the
necks of those with whom they are associ-
ated. In the case of one his opposition is
sought As an element of strength. and in
the other he is sent to the rear in order that
he may not drive the troops into psnicy
retreat. This man is a wOuld-be boss
a boss in everything. He wants to boss
the city council. he wants TO boss the school
board, he wants TO boss every municipal
board Of the city. he wants TO boss every
public officer. he wants 10 boss the news
papers, he wants to boss the whole concern
and hold lash of bondage over every man
in his employ. The measures or the man.
daring 10 run counter to his dictates is put
upon his list and the withering breath OF his
displeasure is blown upon him. He does
not attempt to control by either reason or
sense. but by money and force. The man
whom he can not use for his purpose he sets
about to crush. lie plays the same old
baby act, and will not play at all unless
everybody plays his way, and then wants
the community To endorse his unreasonable
position. His only motto is rule or ruin,
submit 10 my dictates or bear nv displeas-
ure. The people Of Springfield will readily
recognize this as a graphic pen picture of
one OF our citizens This man Is wholly
responsible for any labor troubles that have
been i'm Springfield; he is wholly responsible.
because of his meddling. for the
democratic victory in the city and
township last spring; he is
wholly responsible for any disatfectiOn in
the republican party at this time. This man
has it in his power 10 become a great and
useful citizen and the people are always
glad to recognize any effort on the part of
any citizen, to better the city or its pe0-
pie. but the spirit of bosSiSm is not kindly
received by any community or party. The
history Of this principle is, that il generally
wins for time but the fall Of the boss is
sure TO come and will be humiliating to
him, in its effect.
This is not personal matter, it is simply
whether bOSsiSm is to prevail or whether
the people and the PARTY are to control in
this city and county. The republican party
is greater than any single man and We are
for the party.
