 The dissenting element. however, set up independent action, fayoring the Apple Blossom,9 under the title of the Floral Emblem Society" with headquarters at Helena.
 This society sent out petitions to all parts of the state for signatures la Voring their flower, and asking sigma lures.

THE DEADLY CIGARETTE.
Little Cigars Are Taking Their Place
 -Lessening the Output

NEW YORK, Jan. 23@The cigar cite fiend is losing his hold Cigar cites seem to be giving way to little
 cigars as from 1899 to 1900 there was diminution of 6 per cent i'll con sumption of paperwrapped cigarettes, and a diminution of consumption of b per cent. in the years ending De cember 31, 1899 and 1900, while there was an increase of 27 per cent, in the latter year, in the consumption of little cigars, and an increase of Is per cent. in the same for the same period. For eleven months ending November 30, there was a diminution of about 6 per cent. in the output of paper cigarettes and z per cent. in the output of little cigars. Many more persons are buying cigars than here tofore, and many persons roll their own cigarettes with many brands of cigarette paper furnished gratis by the manufacturers. The goods now are higher priced, and there is also less rivalry, which accounts for a great deal of the lessening of output
