Mr.. Editor. why is it that ladies

Mr.. Editor, why is it that ladies
always take dressing and man
always call for stufling? If you
can't answer keep mum.
The world is full of hypocrites,
who profess religion, that will get
drunk and abuse their wives, never
speak kind word at home or even
svmpathize with dying neighbor.
We have seen the very same peo-
pie, both women and men, sit back
in church, take the bread and wine,
and trying to look angelic while
they sing: "Shall we know each
other theref' when they wouldn't
speak to each other when they meet
in the road. They may know each
other, but the question is where.
All honor to the young lady who
has the grit, brains and independ-
ence to prepare herself for the high
calling of school teacher. Her
work is a noble one and she is IN a
position to do good in the world.
Besides the good she does for 9TH
ers she wins an independent lIveli-
hood for herself. She is not com
PEELED to be either a burden to her
parents or to marry the first thing
that comes along in the shape of a
man just for the sake of having a
home. All honor to the "school
marm." MooNsHINE.

EMPERoR WILLIAM of Germany
is the most sacred person in the
civilized world at the present time.
No one in Germany who values his
or her liberty dares to say any
thing about the Emperor that
might give him personal offense. A
New Yorker was arrested in Berlin
last week for a remark of that sort
overheard by a jealous subject of
the Emperor. A Partisan journal
ist was recently arrested in Paris
for making sport of His Majesty.
The pretended divinity that hedges
William about seems mighty ride
ulous to the people of free eoun-
tries.

LOUISVILLE ToBAcCo MARKEr-
Office of "The Weed" SATURDAY..
Nov. 26, '9s.-The Burley market
opened this week with a decidedly
better tone throughout the entire
line. As in the past the buyers
showed preference for common
and medium grades, which under a
good demand realized a slight adj
vance over last weeks quotations.
The offerings of these types were
relatively large, and some packages
of special merit were bid off at
prices satisfactory to owners. The
finer grades of colory leaf, however.
are still comparatively neglected,
although there are indications that
the demand for such will improve
in the future. Medium red leaf and
tips hold their own comparatively
we'll, and when sweet and desirable
command full prices. The crop of
81, while not in all respects a
model one, had the advantage in
color over that Of '9S, and this be-
comes more strongly emphasized as
the new crop develops itself.
The new crop is gradually assn
ming the leading role on the breaks,
and while the offerings show a
slightly better average in quality
the character of the crop as already
outlined shows no material change.
Several of the new packages
reached the grade of medium, but
nothing of special merit has vet
appeared on the market. The pres
ent cold snap will doubtless put a
temporary stop 10 preparing the
weed for the market, and il is pose,
sible should il continue that re-
ceipts may fall beneath expecta-
tions. The market has shown con-
siderable more snap and the buy
ing element seems more wide.~
awake than for some time past. All
the leading buyers took hand du-
ring the week along the same lines
as formerly. Speculation on their
future relations to the market con-
tinuc To afford a fertile subject for
gossip. and will probably do SO un-
til the curiosity of the gossiper is
satisfied 10y the official announce
ment Of the plans of the new Trust.
The Dark market has not devel.
oped any new features during this
Week. and the past status has not
changed to any appreciable extent.
Long leaf suitable for rehandling
purposes seems to be the leading
type in the new crop, and prices
have kept strong, with demand in
creasing as the season progresses.
The receipts from some sections
show a marked coarseDess of fiber,
while from others we note the re-
ceipt OF many packages small fiber
ed and Of "a silky texture suitable
for black wrappers. Steamers are
paying attention to the medium
and short leaf, which appears to
eat their purpose admirably. The
only thing to be feared in connec-
ton with stemming for the English
market is the tendency to overdo
and consequently to glut the mar
ket on the other side.-Louisville

r. G. DrNN & Co.'S. weekly trade
report says:
Thanksgiving for 1898 means
more than for thirty years. The
Harvest Home" has never recog-
nized larger crops on the whole in
this country. The general pros
perity is attested by the largest
volume of business ever recorded.
The peoples verdict has given rea-
son to hope that the soundnees of
the currency and the nations hon.
or will not again be in peril, and a
war not matched in history for
swiftness of success with smallness
of loss has brought the more per
feet union than ever between North
and South, and closer bond than
ever with skin beyond the sea-"
ending with the most important in
crease of territory since California
was added 10 the Union. The year
SO exceptional in magnitude and
variety of blessings draws near Its
end with yet another good gift,
marked increase of confidence in
prospects for the year which is to
close the century"

GREAT Britain is the only con
spicuously successful eolonizing
nation IN the world. Much of her
success in that respect is no doubt
due to her free-trade policy. The
United States is impelled to prom
ise equal trade facilities to all ma
tions with her own citizens in the
Philippines. Thus, by indirection,
through expansion or Imperialism,
this nation may finally come To the
policy of a tariff for revenue only.

California product. A compromise
was effected by breaking a bottle
of each. These christenin Z squab-
