1t Robs the Farmer.

The American Tobacco Company
should be run out of the State and
it will be or it will run everybody else
out of the tobacco market-Laurin-
burg Exchange.
Commenting on the above, the
Charlotte Observer says:
ThAplaid trust doesn' t
reduce the price of cotton; the
whiskey trust doesn't affect the price
of corn: the sugar trust doesn't de
press the price OF raw sugar; the
book trust doesn't scale down the
price of white paper, nor printers
wages; but the tobacco trust puts its
own ruinous price upon leaf tobacco
and pillages the maker of the raw
material as the very first step in its
operations. Other trusts skin the
consumer; this one reaches back and
robs the producer 1t it were content
with laying its hand upon those who
smoke it's vile manufactures, all
would be well, even though it taxed
them dollar a dozen upon its often
sive products; but this is no part of
the trouble. The trouble is just
what the Exchange points out: if it
ism throttied it will run everybody
else out of the tobacco business.
