Wouldn't PAY Cigar Tax.

Stored in boxes at the home of the late
Reuben Keinert, in Herford township,
Pa, are $4,000 cigars that were made be-
fore the war, and his estate is now won-
dering what to do with them In addi-
ton there is sufficient leaf tobacco to
fill four-horse wagon.
A half century ago Mr.. Keinert was
manufacturer of cigars, at time when
no revenue stamps were required. He
had the $4,000 on hand when the gov
ernment, needing money to carry on the
war, passed the revenue law which made
it necessary to put several dollars worth
of stamps on each thousand cigars Mr..
Keinert was opposed to this revenue law,
and declined to buy stamps. AS result
he could not sell his cigars, and for 45
years they have been stored at his home.
About the time that the stamp law
was passed he was offered $4,000 in gold
for the cigars, but he declined to sell,
thinking that as soon as the war was
over the revenue law in regard to cigars
would be repealed. With each recurring
Congress he expected this to happen,
bat each time the aged cigarmaker was
disappoin ted, although his hope grew
high some years ago, when the revenue
tax was reduced. He died several weeks
ago with the revenue law in force.

1t is said that there exists profitable
field for tobacco growing in the Trans
vaal. About five million pounds of cigar
cite tobacco alone, commanding an aver
age price of three shlllings, six pence par
pound, are annually imported into South
Africa. Large quantities of the different
grades of pipe tobaccos are also import
ed from other parts of the world. Chew
ing tobacco and snuff come from oversee,
while nearly all of the cigars consumed
in South Africa are imported. Ell. ).
Altenroxel, the government tobacco ex-
pert, and Captain Madge have just COM
pleted tour of the principal tobacco
growing districts where meetings were
held and great interest manifested ny
the farmers. They displayed a genuine
desire to learn the latest improved
methods of growing and handling the
leaf, and were keen about the proposed
Transvaal Tobacco Growing association,
being of the opinion that it should he
formed as soon as possible. The experts
report very favorably on the progress
made by the Farmers association at
Kroondall, near Rustenburg, which is
beng conducted on cooperative lines.
Their tobacco crop has been excellent
this year, and they are building mill
for the purpose of manufacturing the
stock of leaf accumulated.

LANCASTER, Penn, Nov. 90 1905.
With little to sell in the hands of local
dealers, there cannot be much business,
and so we can only repeat their words,
''little doing" One of our largest deal
ers, when asked what the dealers we're
doing with themselves nowadays, replied,
"Oh, just sitting around our Offices,
smoking and waiting!' They are wait
ing for the new crop to come in and that
will not begin to move until early in the
new year. Very few sales of 1905 crops
have been made lately, the growers hold
ing their crops at price considered by
the dealers to be little beyond their
reach.
A few old goods are still picked up
here and there. B. E. Good & Co. sold
210cs and bought LOT. A. B. Croft sold
his last 20cs, and his warehouse is now
empty, for the first time in years.
The cigar business continues good, for
those wise enough or lucky enough to
to nave enough leaf on hand. Those who
are not in this class are put to hard

Market conditions remain unprece
dented. The lack of desirable supply is
growing more intensive from week to
week, while prices are progressing pro-
portionately. The seriousness of the leaf
situation is not evident so much in the
fact that packers are sold out in many
instances, but in the more telling cir
cumstances that both jobbers and man
ufacturers are short of stock. The fact
emphasized last week in this place that
the warehouses in the country are empty
tells the story in it's unvarnished naked
ness. For those warehouses used to be
kept stocked chock full by the purchases
of the manufacturers. and if these ware
houses have become emptied it is the
most convincing proof of the ravishing
consumption of the factories. This seri-
Gus condition, as we cannot repeat often
enough, does not exist only in the supply
of domestic leaf, but also in Cuban leaf.
Manufacturers of seed and Havana ci-
gars who do not supply themselves in
time with sufficient quantity of Havana
leaf for their output will in few months
find themselves embarrassed in replen-
ishing their stock. Never before was
there such an increasing demand for CT
gars of all kinds and grades, and the best
proof for this demand is the inadequacy
of the supply of cigar boxes. Box
makers, who but a few months ago were
begging for orders, are now refusing to
accept any orders whatever, and are
raising the price of boxes even to their
steady customers. Of this fact the man
ufacturers are even better informed than
the U. S. Tobacco Journal and the
charge therefore on the part of manu-
facturers that the y. S. Tobacco Journal
is booming inordinately the leaf market
in the interest of the leaf trade is being
contradicted by this very fact. The U.
S. Tobacco Journal is only telling the
plain truth when it pictures conditions
as they really are, and the manufactur-
ers would have been money in their
pockets if they had needed in time the
warnings and predictions made chiefly
for their own benefit by the U. S. Tobac-
co Journal. journal.

strong skirmish line is still main
tanned about the local tobacco markets
and everything in the cured leaf line is
being looked over and priced, with the
result that transactions have been quite
plentiful. The country districts are not
neglected either, but the remaining un-
sold lots are so scarce that dealers
scarcely consider it worth the while to
longer continue the search. A nong the
sales coming to notice are:
Fl. Rothe, 8a at 91s&2c.
Olaf Olson, "a at ga &2c.
E. M. Crandall, "a at 8&2c.
Shannon & Lyke, "a at 8&2c.
The movement of old stock include a
5OOcs lot of '03 by Hanson Bros. to A..
Jenson & Sons. A 100cs lot of 'O1 by
Mrs. Merrill of Sparta, to Gillen, who
also bought 125cs of S. G. Chambers of
Milton Jet. Fl. Ell. Bjoin of Stoughton
sold 4O0cs lot of '04 to L. B. Carle &
Son and Ed. Simonson 12Ocs of 'O4 to
A. Wallach of Chicago. Ben Monson
sold 127cs 'O4 to Chas. Sweeney.
A rain Monday evening might have
brought the hanging tobacco into case
were it not followed by heavy winds that
rapidly took the moisture out of the
leaf. The temperature was right to Sc
cure good case Some growers, whose
sheds were we'll located, have undoubt-
edly removed portion of their crops,
but the work of stripping cannot be-
come general until more satisfactory
weather appears and which growers are
now anxiously waiting for.

600 cases from this market to all points

shifts. Many of the smaller factories
have closed, while others are helping 60
fill the orders of the big establishments
that have good stock of tobacco on
hand.
The local tobacco dealers are getting
up petition to be presented to the in
surance companies, asking for reduc-
tion of rates. These used to be around
So per $1,000, while now they are from
$3.50 to So per $1,000, rates that are
considered extortionate. 1t is hoped the
insurance companies will display some
reason in the matter.-New Era.
Connecticut Valley Tobacco Market.
Very little of the remaining part of the
1905 crop of tobacco was taken from the
poles at the last damp time and many
are beginning to get anxious. The first
of December is fast approaching, at
which time so many farm hands are to
be released from their former engage
ments to take up new positions in the
asserting warehouses for the winter.
The outlook for the grower who has
from tive to ten acres to be stripped and
got ready for the market, with small
prospect of obtaining the desired help, is
bad. 1t has been the custom of the
growers for good many years to have
stripping finished in the fall before the
help was to leave the farm, and this in
years before the asserting shops became
SO numerous. So he realizes that If he
would finish his stripping at or before
Dec. he must have good casing wealth
er. Now, IN the absence of such weather
he is facing real dilemma out of which
there is hardly any way. except to 60 to
the large towns or cities and hire the un-
employed.

HOSPITAL and
SANITARIUM
An Institution of Which vinita
May Feel Proud.

One OF the finest, If not the best in
stitutions that Vinita has secured
the present year is the new hospital
and sanitarium. The location at the
northwest corner OF north park was
selected with a purpose in mind that
it was in easy reach and yet far enough
out to avoid the noise Of the trains
and discomfort Of smoking engines
and other disturbances.
1t also fronts the park which is to
be made into a beautiful ornamental
garden, with lakes and flowers and
pleasant drives and walks. The work
Of excayating for the lake has already
begun.
The hospital consists Of ten rooms
at present, but is built in a manner
that additional rooms may be added
when necessary. 1t is elegantly fuTn-
ished and the rooms are bright, COM
modiOus and comfortably fitted
throughout.
Miss Mabel Russell, OF SOuJh NC
Alester, a graduate nurse Of the Okla
homa City Training school is the lady
in charge.
The institution is one OF which ev-
cry citizen may feel proud. 1t is a
hospltable home for the sick, such as
we have been unable to procure here
tofore. The bath room in connection,
where patients may take medicated
baths, is one Of the best features Of
the institution and one may receive
the same treatment here as at Clare
more or other health institutions.
While thelbuildingis practically COM
plete in its equipment yet the sur
roundings viii be beautifed and the
building enlarged as time and busi-
ness require.
