AGAINST THE "PINHoOKER. .
Revenue Commissioner Rescinds His
Anti-pinhooker Order.

The United States Internal Revenue
Commissioner at Washington recently
delivered decision, affecting dealers
in loose leaf tobacco. 1t practically put
an end to what is called 'pinhooking"
and therefore raised Il storm of OPPOSE
ton. 1t was as follows:
THAT dealer after receiving leaf to-
bacco from farmer is required to pack
III hogsheads, cases or bales before de-
livering or offering it for sale to an
other person. and that the rehandling
of tobacco in quantities less than a
hogshead, case or bale is expressly for
hidden under dealers license. and fail
ure to comply with this provision will
render such dealer liable not only to
the special tax. but to have his tobacco
forfeited.
The Washington Post of yesterday
says:
Congressman Swanson. of Virginia.
who was seen ut the Raleigh last even

by a Post reporter. In company with
Senator Thomas Martin and Messrs.
AGREE and Cobb, of Danville, represent
ing the tobacco men of that city, he
had called upon the Commissioner of
Internal Revenue and succeeded in get
ting that official to rescind ruling Of
his department that prohibited the sale
of tobacco in loose packages.
THE revocation of this order said
Mr.. Swanson, will be hailed with JOY

remarkable one is that of a Glasgow

reach the middle of the Psalms. In
two years he anticipates that the con-

A feature Of this remarkable Bible will
be its illustrations. Each chapter has
its artistically designed initial letter,
