TOBACCO SALES
BY ASSOCIATION
ON LOCAL MARKET

Seventeen hogsheads OF association
tobacco were sold by Salesman Veale
at the following prices:
3 hogsheads Tugs ........ 500
l hogshead leaf .........-. 1880
Is hogsheads leaf so. Sal and $12.
About 1000 hogsheads of associa-
ton tobacco are now on the Paducah
market. and. considering that II is
very early in the season, the sales
made so far have been satisfactory
according to statements of the
officials.
Salesman Veale stated this morning
that the highest price received TO date
was II cents pound for one hogs
head, which is the only one received
so far that graded that high. The
hogshead was sold the first day Of
fered.
Reports from surrounding towns
are to the effect that heavy deliveries
are being made to the prizing houses
but the prizers are not working the
tobacco fast, on account OF the UNI
favorable weather for pricing, and
under instructions from the general
manager of the association the tobac-
co must be in first-class condition be-
fore being placed in the hogshead.
Loose Tobacco Sales.
Loose tobacco sales in the wagon
has almost become a thing OF the past
in this section. so closely has the ter
ritory been worked by the independ-
ent buyers and the association organ
izers. and fully 95 per cent OF the to-
bacco grown is either pledged to the
association or contracted for by the
BUYERS by the time the tobacco i
cured and ready for stripping. The
few struggling loads that come in
unsold are bought by the independ-
ent buyers, the prices paid being
about the same as paid for tobacco
contracted for early in the season.
Heavy deliveries are being made TO
all the tobacco warehouses today and
Il is estimated that probably a quar-
ter of a million pounds was received
in all at the association prizing houses
and by the Independent buyers. The
prices paid by the independent buyers
range from to cents for Tugs and
from s to II cents for leaf.

CARNEGIE PRAISES ROOSEVELT
ironmaster Approves Course of Inter
state Commerce Commission.

New York. Feb. 27.-Andrew Car
.regie thoroughly approves of the in
terstate commerce commission, and
has outlined his views on that body
in an article in the March Century en-
titled MY Experience With Railway
Rates and Rebates" in the course OF
which the writer warmly praises Mr..
Roosevelts attitude toward the rail-
roads.
The ironmaster describes the growth
OF the rate question through such
phases as gentlemen agreements
TO rebates and the community of in
terest" idea. and then says:
"The president has performed Q
great service, focusing the attention
of the country upon certain crying
evils and the present course of the gov
eminent is all that could be desired

RRAVO WOODEORD.

| The account in the Courier-Journal
Yesterday % the mass, meeting of citi-
gems of woodford county and their
Organization of a Law and Order
League is another cheering demon
stration that a wholesome, just and
patriotic spirit is asserting itself in
some parts of the state. at least, say>
the Courier-Journal. The people of
IHopkinsvnle, a city that has suffered
much from the torch of the night
rider. some time ago formed a similar
league and began to exert whateve,
influence they could upon the law
makers at Frankfort. Woodford coun-
tvs citizens should prove a valuable
auxiliary to the forces OF law and
order. Their county is one Of the
best aud most enlightened in the
state. Its citizens are of the salt OF
the earth" When Woodford lifts its
voice against the writers of anony-
nous letters. senders of cartridges
and the outlaws who have been threat
ening its people and terrorizing other
counties OF the stat. the effect shoule
be beneficial. The resolutions adopt
ed by the woodford county meeting
are to the point:
Whereas Certain peaceful and
citizens of our county
having received through the medium
of the Uni'ed States mail letters con-
tanning infamous and diabolical
threats, the intention OF those having
said threats sent being not only TO
intimidste and eoerce those to whom
they were sent. but also to inaugu-
rate a reign Of terror in our COM
munity; be it therefore
Resolved. That We, the citizens OF
Woodford county. in mass meeting
assembled, idenounce such atrocious
attempts as unlawful. uncivilized and
inhuman. and that we hereby pledge
ourselves to defend and protect each
citizen of our county in his every legal
right: be it further
Resolved. That We forthwith Or
ganize ourselves into a law and order
league. the purpose of which shall be
to uphold the law and assist our
county and state officials in detecting
and Furnishing all violations of the
law. without fear and without favor,
to the end that We may save our be
loved county from that dreadful wave
of lawlessness and crime now sweep
ing over our unhappy state"
Such spirit as this, coupled with
the fearless charge Of Judge Stout to
the grand jury. lifts up a sign OF
promise in a state that seems now a
wilderness of outlawry and rebellion.
If the Woodford league would go a
bit farther IN its activities in behalf
of the suppression of the tobacco re-
bellion it nights beseeoh the general
assembly to transform itself into a
law and order body.

have been exploited under the benign
sway of genial gentlemen in office
who have considered 1t no part OF
their duty TO poke their executive
noses into other peoples affairs. They
kept themselves personally clean and
let 1t go at that.
If this country were a great bust
ness concern and Roosevelt chosen
executive head OF it, we should expect
him to ferret out abuses and reduce
the conduct of the business TO a sys-
TEN. That is what he has done, and
the fact that those, who have been
under suspicion, are bitter against
him, is proof enough of their guilt
and his zeal.
In way. not to his discredit,
Roosevelt is abnormal; but it requires
an abnormal effort to arouse the pub
lie conscience. Demagogues have
shouted themselves hoarse in every
generation: but their false doctrines
nave found no response.
"The voice of the people is the
voice of Cod" Joe Cannon has heard
the cry of the mob many times, and
he, perhaps, has failed to distinguish
between the two. He has seldom
heard the people speak during his
political career. He. like many an
other. fails TO perceive that back OF
this concrete expression of the will OF
the people. OF this abnormal activity

ABNORMAL TIMES

"All who study the history of our
country" said Joe Cannon. will find
that about every once in so often a
period of abnormal activity. led by an
abnormal man, develops. However. II
the study is pursued. you will find
that the storm soon blows over and
when the sun came out We were still
doing business at about the same old
gait, in the same old way, at the same
old place"
We are peSsimistic enough TO be
lieve that Uncle Joe is right-after
awhile We shall revert TO the Nd way
of doing things but the county, will
he the better for these abnormal times
When all the evil. which We regard
with newly awakened Consciousness
have been removed and the public
mind has been lulled into apathy
greed will stealthily re-establish itself
in the strongholds from which II is be-
ing dislodged. and then another "ab-
normal" man will be raised up and
drive Il out again. It's thus the world
grows better. gaining and slipping
back, but never quite to the old level
and Uncle Joe, grown gray and ma
tured under a system of politics. that

TO see the system restored to vogue.
The influence of Roosevelt will live
longer than the memory of Cannon.
A new school OF young politicians has
developed since Roosevelt came 10 the

fore the old regime is restored.
