Postscript finds an occasional item of
news in the Bladder it takes it and
credits it. 1t steals news items right
along from THE AsToRIAN and never
credits them. That is characteristic,

Some people have a notion that an
imported article is necessarily better
than a domestic or homemade one,
and this idea extends to cigars A
high priced imported cigar bought of
an honest dealer is almost invariably
good, but those who call for three
for-a-quarter imported get very little
for their money, and far less than if
they took domestic cigars. The rea-
son is this: The duty ON cigars is
$3.50 per pound weight, and - per
cent. ad valorem. while the duty on
tobacco is only 30 cents a pound. 1t
is clear, then, that imported cigars
sold at 80 cents each cannot have
cost 'as much as $40 a thousand in
Cuba, whereas the domestic three-for-
a-quarter should have cost $50 or $50
at the factory. The prejudice is due
to the fact that no one seems to be
able to make n cigar 50 well as Il ma
tive Cuban. But now many OF the
leading factories of New York, Key
West and Tampa are owned by Span
iards who employ many Cuban work
men, and hence there is less difference
than ever between a good cigar made
of imported tobacco in this country
and an imported cigar; in fact, the
principal difference is that the Ameri-
can made article is larger and con-
tains more high grade tobacco.
