Praise for Our Tobacco.

teen months ago the Cuban Tobacco
Growers company began operation
at FIT. Meade. At the time, the ciga
manufacturers, as a rule, sneered a
the suggestion that they might be in
duced to consider the tobacco they
would produce in Florida.
Since that time this colony hav,
put in much diligent and intelligent
labor, and they have gathered two
crops, one in the spring and another
in the fall. At first their acreage wa:
small, but the success was so grea7
that in planting the fall crop they pu7
in thirty-fve acres in two plantations
Both of these crops have been gath
cred, and the warehouses on these
model tobacco farms are now filleC
with plenty of excellent leaf. This
will be held until it is perfectly
matured before it is put on the mar
ket, for then it will command better
prices.
Another crop is now being planted
and is being watched with consider
able interest-not only by those who
are contemplating planting, but by
many of the manufacturers also.
Juan B. Creagh, a manufacturer and
A. M. Dominguez, a leaf dealer of
this city, have just returned from a
visit to the Fort Meade tobacco plan
tations. Both of these gentlemen
are enthusiastic over the subject of
tobacco growing, especially as it is
being practiced at this place. In re-
gard to the crop Mr.. Creagh said:
mo one except those of experience
can judge the value of the crop these
people are producing, nor can they
estimate the good they do to the
southern part of the state. They
have been at Fort Meade just a little
over year and they have done what
| have never seen done before on a
tobacco plantation-they have raised
two crops of leaf.
Their warehouses are we'll filled
with a grade of leaf which [ do not
hesitate to pronounce of the highest
quality. 1t is only a matter of a lit
tie time when it will take a distinctive
rank in the market. [ have tested
and tried it, and find that in all cases
it stands we'll with the finest Cuban
grades. [ predict that it will please
the smoking public as well as the
manufacturers.
"The men in charge of the cult
walton as we'll as the curing are
practical as well as intelligent men
They know what to do and just when
to do it. I know all of them quite wei
and know that they have been reared
in the business and are conversant
with it's every detail. The leaf that
they now have on hand demonstrates
their perfect knowledge of the bust
ness in which they are engaged.
''The day that was there they
planted $4,000 young tobacco plants
on one of their farms, and they in
tend to put in $50 acres for this
spring crop. Their farms are irri
gated by a system which should be
widely copied by the farming classes
This is very important with tobacco
for the planter can almost produce
any kind of leaf he desires if he
has the soil and the practical knowl

The Cigarette In Paris.

Nowhere is the cigarette smoked as
much as in Paris, not even in Spain, that
classic land of the papel de hilo The pure
Partisan may be recognized by the fact
that he only smokes the cigarette. Wheth-
or man Of fortune, with the means of
purchasing the fullest favored regalias of
the mildest partages, or a man of the peo-
pie to whom the pipe is more convenient,
as he can hold it between his teeth while
he works-to whatever class he may belong,
and whatever good reason he may have for
preferring something different, the Pari-
sian always remains faithful to his plain
tobacco rolled up in piece of paper and
rolled up by himself
Let that point be noted for one of the
charms of the cigarette is to make it one
self, to feel it take form and consistency,
gradually becoming frmer, more equal
soft and elastic, rustling, cracking and
softly gliding between the fingers which
caress it fondlly.
The greatest attraction in the cigarette
is to smoke it without its ever being COM
pletely made, for this second point must
be noted in particular The real smoker
of the cigarette never vets his paper or
gives to it definite form, but continues
to roll while smoking it.-Paris Letter.

CARL SHURZ writes in the Harpers
Weekly that the nation is bound by
the promise implied in ex-President
Cleveland's last message TO congress,
in which he suggested autonomy, with
the guarantee Of the United States, as
a peaceable settlement of the Cuban
question. Letting alone the 'advisabil-
ity of an autonomy under such condi-
tons, it is news to us that the present
administration is bound, or can be, by
any of Mr.. Cleveland's opinions ex-
pressed in his message or elsewhere.
1t would be big job for this country
to redeem all its promises if everything
said concerning our foreign policy in
the various messages were regarded as
pledge.

JUDGE VAN WICK, elected mayor of
Greater New York on Tuesday last,
presides over more people than did
George Washington when he was first
elected president in 1889; he will, in
his sphere, have far greater power than
Washington possessed, and his domain
will have several times as much wealth
as the United States had at the begin
ming of this century. Under these
circumstances, with Van Wyck a
virtual monarch, Croker his prime
minister and Tammany tor Il parlia-
ment, what are the prospects for the
second city in the world during the
next four years? We predict that by
the time another national campaign
rolls round New York will have had
enough of corruption and misrule. In
1900 the camp fires of the Tammanies
will be burnt out, their tribes men
scattered by the winds of derision and
the mighty Sycamore, Croker, will be
bent under q load of contumely.

"LAw is not respected. Its dignity
is held in contempt. Half our present
laws are dead letters, lightly passed, "
says the Menasha Evening Breeze, in
an editorial under date of Nov. /. The
Breeze states a serious truth. One of
Americas most menacing evils is the
growing disregard for law, The civil
code is especially losing its sanctity.
With their self respect bolstered up by
good record against petty offences our
executives strut about blindfold while
law breaking runs rampant. In great
er offences law is sacrificed and the
officer fondles fee to soothe his con-
science. In some cases it is pleaded
that the law is arbitrary. But when
public servant has taken the oath of
Office it is not his place to pass jndg-
ment on the justice of the law he is
sworn to enforce. The law is the bull
wark set up by the public to protect it
against crime, and when a public
functionary betrays his trust by con-
cealing law breakers he is as much a
traitor as the man who connives with
his country's foe and as much deserves
his punishment as traitors do. His
blame may be somewhat mitigated,
however, by the fact that such state
of affairs has not been sufficiently con-
demned, it being proverbial that
Americans will not wear their bonds,
either legal or religious, when they
become in the least calling.

A Great Magazine Feature.

The Ladies' Home Journal has
secured what promises to be the great
magazine feature of 1898. 1t is enti-
tied " The Inner Experiences of Cab
met Members Wife," In a series of
letters written by the wife of a Cabinet
member to her sister at home, are
detailed her actual experiences in
Washington, frankly and freely given.
The letters were written without any
intention of publication. They give
intimate peeps behind the curtain OF
high official and social life. They are
absolutely fearless, they study Wash
ington life under the searchlight as it
has never been before presented, The
president and the highest officials of
the land, with the most brilliant men
and women of the capital, are seen in
the most familiar way. AS these are
all actual experiences the name of the
writer is withheld. The letters will
doubtless excite much shrewd guessing
by readers and study of internal evil
dence to discover the secret. The
/" Experiences, which will be beauti-
fully illustrated, begin in the Decem-
Der number and will continue for sew
eral months.

NOT long since the attention of
Kenoska county farmers was engaged
in the discussion of tuberculosis. 1t
has been decided that great danger
turks in the milk taken from cattle
affected with the dread disease. The
bacillus passes easily from the udder
into the milk, and Mr.. James Long,
who is an authority upon the subject,
states that in the United Kingdom
more lives are lost annually through
drinking tuberculous milk than would
be sacrificed in a war with first-c class
power. AS an individual precaution
he recommends that each consumer
boil the milk before consumption, on
the other hand, of course, it behooves
the community to provide for the sys
tematic inspection of cattle and for the
slaughter of all animals shown to be
infected with the disease.

THE position recently assumed by
Spain and the increased activity in the
Brooklyn navy yard have caused an
other war scare, and, as is always the
case at such time, the condition of
our army and navy is brought up for
discussion. Herein lies the virtue OF
these frequent agitations. They in
variably call public attention to-. the
wretched insuf1ciency of our military
and naval departments. Possibly in
the course of a few years, if our sailors
are not scared stiff by that time, our
legislators will be convinced of the
imperative need in that direction.
