TO TOBACCO Men
Representative Gaines Makes
Suggestions For Action.
Creation of an Interstate Tobacco
Growers Bureau to Prosecute
Their Fight and Petition to
Congress.

Representative Gaines, in discuss
ing the convention of tobacco men
at Guthrie, IN expressed the desire
that they would create an inter
state tobacco growers bureau to
prosecute this tobacco fight to a
successful ending. Mr.Gaines, who
has given the matter much study,
hopes that the convention will ad-
opt resolution declaring to Con-
gress that
"Your petitioners would respect
fully represent:
That in The midst OF the vaunt-
ed prosperity said to be deluging
.ali other parts Of our blessed coun-
TRY, the tobacco raising sections
are in the very throes of calamity
and hard times, the people hard up,
farm laborers in want, nobody pros.
pering, everything languishing.
That the effect of the revenue
laws relating to tobacco has been
to bring to the very verge of ruin
one Of the richest countries God has
made, destructivly damaging to
landlords and farmers, and dis
tresslngly improverishing to ten
ants and laborers, by placing it
within the power of buyers aud cor
porations to fix the price aud com.
bIue TO control it. That no other
section of country IN the United
States has been placed under such
ban, having its natural fertility
and wealth-producing powers
rendered nil; that no other product
of the soil is thus taxed and singled
out for trusts to prey on; that no
other class OF people are thus
ground to powder by permission Of
the laws.
THAT the effect of'the law is to
destroy the competition among buy
ers and limit the growers markets
that most of our enormous dark to.
bacco produce is bought tor export
and ields no revenue to the Cover

AMERICAS HEARS
OTHER TRAGEDY,
Young Lads are Killed in
Theatre.
RELATIVES OF AMERIcus LADY
Boys Reached Fire Escape But
Knocked Down By a Man and
Tramped to Death--Were Nephews
of Mrs. Albert Brady Here.

There remained another Americas
chapter in the tragedy of blood and
fire written in Chicago which was not
generally known here until yesterday
another here losing loved ones in the
mad rush for life made by thousands
from the burning theatre.
This other was Mrs. Albert Brady,
living out near Huntington.
Mrs. Brady was in the city yester.
day and to friends told the story of the
loss of her two nephews, manly young
boys, aged eight and ten years who,
with the father of one of them, attended
the play.
The two boys were cousins, one q
resident of Chicago and the other a
visitor from Omaha, Neb.
At the cry of fire the man and two
boys dashed for fire escape. The
gentleman was descending in safety
with the boys to follow, when they
were pushed under foot in the mad
rush that followed, their protector be-
ing powerless to render them any as
sIstance,
It was thirty hours thereafter ere the
bodies were recovered.
Mrs. Brady has received letters CIV
ing full details of the tragedy, brought
so near to her. The bodies of the two
boys were carried to Mrs. Brady's old
home in Virginia for interment.

Anticipation.


There is a story to the effect that a
woman with a disposition to worry
over the future made list of impend-
ing troubles, the ones she thought like
ly to happen to herself, and put it
away for safe keeping. Some months
later she ran across it by accident
merely, for she had quite forgotten 1T,
and to her surprise found that not one
Of the number had come to pass. So
she became converted to the optimistic
side and is a happier and more pros
porous woman for the change.
1t is story we would do well to re-
member 1t contains lesson to be TAX
en- to heart. The greater part of our
woe lives in our Imagination. On that
we waste our strength and nerve force,
leaving a rather weak prop on which
to lean in real adversely. Trouble we
must meet-that is inevitable-but we
do not have to live it through twice, the
first time in imagination. A fear of
what the future contains is clog upon
our heels and prevents the achieve
ment of many an important deed.
