trust was organized.
1.-THE land on which tobacco is
grown can be used to grow other crops;
Burley tobacco is grown in the ia

1t is inconceivable that the so-call-
ed tobacco trust(even IL it had mo-
nopoly In the purchase of tobacco, which
1t has not being the purchaser di-
rectly or indirectly OF half the
tobacco produced in the United States)
would attempt TO depress the price
of leaf tobacco and thus drive the
farmers to these other crops. The
so-called tobacco-trust is constantly
buying tobacco in Kentucky and else
where, and is always ready to pur-
chase tobacco from anyone, whether
an individual or association, that
has It for sale. 1t hasneverthrown
any obstacle in the way of the organ

METHODS Of THE
TOBACCO TRUST
AS Shown by Recently Is
sued Statement,
WHOSE FALSITY IS OBVIOUS
The Trust Undertakes to Ex-
Plain Itself, but Fails
TO State Facts.

IN response to an overwhelming
public sentiment condemning it's
policy of rule or ruin, the American
Tobacco Company has issued the fol-
lowing statement, or more truthfully
speaking mistatement:
In Kentucky there are several dis
tinct types of tobacco grown-Burley
tobacco, Green River Tobacco and
dark tobacco The American Tobacco
Company uses substantially none, but
tobacco, using approximately sixty per
cent. of the total production. 1t uses
also large quantities of Green River
tobacco, taking, perhaps, third of
the whole production. OF the dark
fired tobacco, The American Tobacco
Company uses substantially noe, but
the American Snuff Company, in
which company The American Tobacco
Company owns stock, uses about fiji
teen per cent. of the total production.
There has been no disorder in
Kentucky in the Burley tobacco grow
ing section; there has been very lit
tie disorder in the Green River sec
ton but the disorder has been in
the dark fired section of Kentucky
and Tennessee at Hopkinsville, Rus
sellville, GAINESVILLE and other. points.
This dark fired tobacco Is bought
principally by buyers representing
the Tobacco Manufacturing Gov
eminent Monopolies of Italy, France
and Spain, but TO some extent by The
American Snuff Company, and to
some extent by The Imperial Tobacco
Company of Great Britain. The af-
fairs of The American Tobacco Com
pany and American Snuff Company
have been under Government Investi-
cation for more than two years. The
Department OF Commerce and Labor
has had access TO all the books and
papers of these companies; employees
and officers of these companies have
been before numerous grand juries
and equity examiners. The fullest
possible examination has been mado,by
all OF these agencies, Including the
most private) letters books and other
papers OF these companies, and there
has been the most thorough examina-
ton and cross-examination of their
officers and employees. 1t Is incon-
ceivable that II there exists or had
ever existed any combination of buy
ing interests it should not have been
disclosed. The fact is, that there ex-
lists no such combination. No in
terest in any way connected or allied
with The American Tobacco Company
is in combination with any other buy
ing interest; no understanding, agree
ment, arrangement or combination eX-
lists between The American Tobacco
Company, or American Snuff Company
or between any of these companies,
and any Government OF other pur-
chaser.
1T is simply and wholly untrue
that there is any contest between
the tobacco-grOwer or tobacco dealers
in kentucky, and the so-called to-
baccu-trust. Where digord.r has Oc-
Cured the social d tobacco-trusj. is

The amazing nature OF the decla-
rations above made is enough to para
lyze Anannias.
In suit asking for the dissolu-
ton of the tobacco-trust, the Attor-
ney General of the United States
makes affidavit that the American
Tobacco Company, the Continental
Tobacco Company. the American Snuff
Company, and the Imperial Tobacco
Company are out and the same cor
potato institution, and asks that It
be dissolved because it is a danger
Gus, Understanding and trade-de-
stroying monopoly.
There has been disorder dangerous
to life in every tobacco-raising dis
trict in Kentucky. Within the past
seven days, two men have been shot
in the Burley district-the district
in which the trust boasts that there
has been no disorder-on account of
tobacco troubles. One factory has al
so been burned and a half-dozen
barns reduced to ashes.
The declaration that there is no
conflict between the tobacco-growers
and the tobacco-trust is falsehOod
so plain and barefaced as to not
bear discussion.
The assertion that the trend Of
tobacco prices has been constantly
higher since the organization OF the
tobacco trust, is another falsehOod
that bears its own contradiction on its
face. 1t was only after the Organiza-
ton of the tobacco-growers into pro-
tective associations that tobacco prices
took an upward shoot. So long as the
trust was unopposed, prices sank down
until they touched the lowest figures
ever known.
More falshoods were never COM
pressed in less space than in this
statement, which the trust expects the
public to swallow. II any official OF
The American Tobacco Company will
make affidavit that these allegations
are true, he can be sent to the peni-
Tertiary for perjury-and ought to be.

COMING WEST.
Shoe Industry Gradually Leaving
Eastern Coast.

Massachusetts and Connecticut are
generally thought of as the big shoe
manufacturing states, but, as the great
west has become more densely popu-
lated, these states are slowly losing
prestige.
Wisconsin, for instance, has the
largest manufacturer OF full vamp
shoes in the world-The F. Mayer
Boot & Shoe Co. of Milwaukee. The
market for this company's product is
the great west from the Mississippi
to the Pacific. Undoubtedly it is MIL
Yankees nearness to this great west
market which is responsible for the
great growth Of this concern which
has been In proportion to the growth
of the west. In the last 25 years they
have outgrown six factories. Includ.
ing the new Seattle factory nearly
completed and the Milwaukee factory
annex built this last year the total
capacity Of the Mayer Boot & Shoe
Company exceeds 5000 pairs per day
which already has been inadequate to
meet the demand Of the west.

BOY IS HELD FOR
CRIME OF MURDER
THE DEATH OF ARTHUR LE
CLAIRE.
LEADS TO ARREST

Neche, n. D., Dee. 31-Following the
inquest In lie Claire murder case sat
friday, in which Mrs. Timothy OBrien
described a hammer owned by the
family in terms which correspondent
with those describing the one with
which the murder was committed, her
son James was arrested on a charge
of being the slayer of Arthur LIE
Claire. In earlier testimony young
0'Brien had been called on to describe
this same implement, but had done so
in entirely different terms than those
used by his mother. His father had
corroborated his testimony. and both
had sworn that the hammer had been
lost for more than a month.
Stains on Overcoat.

O'Brien is said to have blood stains in
the lining. O'Brien said or the stand
that he never had the nose bleed nor
any fight recently.
O'Brien, who is only sixteen years
old, was a lifelong chum of La Claire,
and is the last person known to have
seen him alive. He has been under
police surveillance since the crime
was discovered.

has lived in this vicinity all his life.

ing since his arrest. Entering a rig to
drive to the Jail at Pembina. he said:

The father found such a hatchet at
home as he and James had described
at the inquest, square head n claw
gone. The entire family is heart
broken and there is much sympathy
for them.
James OBrien sent to Winnipeg for
flowers for lie Claire's funeral and was
a ~pallbearer. He was one of the first
to reach the river when the report of
the murder spread. He offered to help
chop the ice to get the body out.
