The News Leader says the tobacco
tru-t has received a "solar p'eNus
blow. It will take more than one
blow TO "down 'em.' Queiec wants

member OF his cabinet.
Ex-Nlavor schmitz, Of San Francis

string of Norfolk, sister towns aud

Tie saunton Spectator, which 10y

Mr. Fairbanks is said to have made
$50 100000 in % years at the practice
of the law. Not at legitimate prac-
tice. He was railroad lawyer, and
some say railroad wrecker. What

chief executive when strenuous ef-
fort is being made to keep within
bounds railway and other corporations.

The Pacific is big and wide and will !
afford ample floating space for the
navles Of earth, and there will be no

loud" Uncle Sam ought to sell them
lie Philippines at half price and be
