Let Us Talk About Tobas 90.
THE PRODUCTION OF THE WEED IN
THIS COUNTRY IN 1889.

WASHINGTON, December S1-The
Census Office to-day issued bulle-
tin giving the statistics of the tobacco
production in the United States dur
ing the year 1889. The bulletin
states that tobacco is produced to
greater or lesser extent in forty-two
States ar1 Territories, the only non
producing States being Idaho,
Nevada, Rhode Island and Wyom-
ing; the non-producing Territories
Oklahoma and Utah. The el.;~e
crop Of the country amounted in
1889 to 4Ss, s,255,89e pounds; the
nuraper Of planters being 205,S62,
and the area devoted 10 tobacco cul-
ture, exclusive Of counties cuItivat-
ing less than one acre, 692, 800 acres,
or l,0S2.S0 square miles. The area
in cultivation was, however, very un-
equally distributed, Kentucky having
1862 per cent of the total acreage
and producing 1874 per cent Of the
entire crop. and the six States next
in rank of production 50.16 per cent
Of the acreage and ~ 40 per cent Of
the crop; while the twenty States
and Territories having the smallest
production haG less than 900 acres in
tobacco and yielded an aggregate Of
1852 pounds, or less than one
tenth of one per cent. of the entire
crop.
The average production per acre
of the entire country was 705 pounds,
ranging among the seed-ieaf States,
producing 100000 pounds or
upwards, from s54 pounds per acre
III Ohio to 1902 pounds per acre in
I Connecticut, and the more import
ant of the States in which the manu-
featuring and export varieties pre-
dominate, from 375 pounds Fer acre
in North Carolina to $50 pounds per
acre in Missouri.
The total value of the crop to the
producers, estimated on the basis OF
actual sales, was s34, ,s44 ,44g, an
average cf II cents per pound.
The leading tobacco producing
county of the entire country is Ian
caster county, Pa, which yielded in
1889 19,217,S0o pounds, worth
s1,349,090 to the producers. Chris
tian and Henderson counties, Ken
lucky, each produce over 100000
pounds, as also does Dane county,
Wisconsin, and Pittsylyania county,
Virginia. Seventeen other counties,
nine Of which are in Kentucky. pro-
duced between 5,00C,0 600 and 10000
600 pounds each.

Johnstone on the Situation.
THE CONGRESSMAN FROM THE THIRD
DISTRICT IS INTERVIEWED IN
CHARLESToN-WHA he SAYS.

Congressman George Johnstone
spent a few hours in the city yester-
day on his way to Washington. He
was seen by reporter for the Neaos
and Courier, while at the Charleston
Hotel, and conversed upon State and
national politics. Mr.. Johnstone has
never talked much for the newspa-
pers, and even now does not care to
have very much to say for publica-
ton.
Being asked what he thought Of
the present national situation, he
replied that he did not have any time
to express himself in other than the
most general. terms. He regards the
issues of the Presidential election as
dependent almost entirely upon the
action Of the present National House
/ of Representatives; with wise action
ON their part, in spite of some appear
ances to the contrary, he regarded
the election as easily within the grasp
of the Democracy, and the Demo
cratic prospects as brighter than they
had been at sny time since Cleve-
lands election.
The present. discomfort that is
everywhere apparent throughout the
North, and especially the Northwest,
could be turned to the benefit of the
Democracy, and any action Of the
House Of Representatives should be
taken with that end continually in
view. Several Of the w estern States
can now be fairly classed as doubt
full, and added to the States Of New
iY ork, Come ecticut and New Jersey,
fthe election would no longer be a
tdisputable question.
Being asked assto who would be
the no.ninee Of the Republicans, he
answered promptly Harrison. That
| Blaine was already a defeated candi=
date and Harrison a, successful one,
iand the Republicans would never
Eexchange a defeated for a successful
cand ddate zVsscs and Courier, 4us,

only issue left is whether or not the
Governor can get around before the
Kolb men call the different County
Conventions. So the fight is for and
against time. The bitterness which
has characterized the campaign, and
has had no parallel, perhaps, in the
political annals of Alabama, is mostly
confined to the newspapers and
politicians. Neither Jones abuses
Kolb nor Kolb Jones. There are as
yet no charges whatever of a slam
derous and yillifying nature against
the Governor, but all the undesirable
appellations and denunciations that
can be imagined are heaped upon the
Alliance candidate, Captain Kolb.
And it is thought that it will, if
anything, help him among the far
mers of the State, who are abused
almost equally with him by some of
the newspapers. To illustrate the
ferocity of politics in some parts OF
the State, I am informed that in
Bibb, Kolb and Alliance county,
and where President Adams, of the
State Alliance, lives, there is a dis
position on the part of Jones men to
disregard the present constituted
party organization entirely, by refus-
inc to act with them in the coming
meetings. A new organization will
be the result, and whatever factor
dominates the State Convention,
their delegates viii be seated. The
Jeferson delegation may also furnish
a contest with a like result. 1t is
rumored that, should Madison go for
Governor Jones, it would virtually
end the campaign. However, if
Kolb wins with walkover, it will
sswhoop" up hisline of battle. It is.
my humble opinion that if Captain.
Kolb receives the nomination for
Governor in the coming Convention
there will be a split in the party.
The faction known as the old guards,
or non-Aliance Democrats, will not
give him their support.
