Emporia. officer Ludy, at the order
of the school board. has started on a
round of stores handling cigarette pa
pers, and warned them of the conse-
quences if they persist in selling or Civ
Ing the papers away. There is a city
ordinance forbidding this and impos-
ing fine of 500. The merchants, it
is said, have ignored the ordinance,
and cigarette smoking has grown to
an alarming extent among the school
boys. The attention of the school
board was called to this fact
officer Ludy has been going from
store to store, and after calling for a
package of tobacco has asked for
cigarette papers. With two or three
exceptions the merchants tossed out
the papers. After doing this Ludy
warned them, and without exception
they promised to destroy what papers
they had and not to handle any more
Some of them burned the papers in
the presence Of the officer, and others
promised to destroy them soon. Some
of the stores did not handle the papers.
and among these was the Ireland gro
Gerry store. Mr. Ireland said that he
never allowed them to be given away
and always burnt them himself not
even trusting the job to his clerks.
All the merchants say that they will
be glad to discontinue handling them.
There is only a quarter of a cent profit
In cigarette tobacco, and the mer-
chants do not care to run the risk of a
500 fine for so small a profit. The
Z old trick of buying them of train boys
win not be allowed this time and the
train boys Will be arrested if they try
20 sell them.
A report was brought to officer
Ludy that the Poehler Mercantile com
pany had been throwing a surplus of
papers outdoors and that the boys had
been finding them out in the alley Mr..
Cutler said today that this report was
untrue. and that all the papers they
had they sent out with the packages of
tobacco to the retail firms. He said,
however that in moving from the old

superintendent L. A. Lowther says
that the mayor and school board had
been expecting to take this action for
some time. He also said that the re-
port that the Federation of Woman's
clubs started this movement was un-
true. A few men have made kick

is curious and disquieting spectacle
Of a past president or the american

whose name has been bound up Tor
years with the splerdid reputation OF
his road, having to step down and out
because he dared to defy interests rep
resenting. as nearly as can be learned
less than One-third of the ownership
of the road. The outcome is an evil
dence at the same time of the tre-
mendous power Of Mr.. Hartman and
of the way in which this power Is APP
piled. The Illinois Central is a prize
indeed, and of especial and peculiar
value to Mr.. Hartman; but hardly
worth what he appears to have paid
for it. An agreement kept in letter but
violated IN spirit, meeting hastily
called at time when a loyal Vice
president and director was too i'll to at
of the road-no less a person than the
governor of the state under which the
company holds its charter-could only
with great inconvenience be present. a
winning over of another vice president
by the hollow reward of a presidency
under Hartman, these are the methods
of a period of railroad finance which It
is disheartening to see revived As for
the 5000 small stockholders. whether or
not the change proves to be for their
advantage, they would seem to be-. for
a year at least, at the mercy of the
declarer of the recent Hartman divi-
dends. When the Hill roads bought the
Burlington, they took away control
from the stockholders by paying for it.
The Illinois Central has. it appears,
been obtained in a less expensive man
ner, by winning over the representa-
tives of the shareholders. In Wednes-
days election Mr.. Harahan received the
votes of E. H. Hartman, Cornelius
