Tobacco Trust i'm politics

ne statement was openly MADE IN
the Senate this winter tina tho Trust
defeated Hon. G. 3. Watson for United
states Senator on account of the part
ne took in the trial in the suit against
Mr. Duke and others. If that is true.
he IS not alone and others may expect
to feel the point Of its stilettO.
The President Of the United States
has lust stated that the American To
bacco Company tried to defeat his
and, failing, afterwards
offered $500 to the chairman of the
Republican Executive Committee to
help elect him, and that the money
was refused. i~nferentiallN because he
understood that this contribution TO
the campaign fund was intended to tie
ms hands in prosecuting it. If the
American Tobacco Company had paid
the m the prices which nineteen
years had shown that manufacturers
could pay them and not only live, but
flourish and build up their own for
tunes. and the towns in which they
did business in the face Of fierce COM
petition with each other, it would not
have had this large sum to spend in
interfering with both Democratic and
Republican political matters. It is
proposed now to control or disrupt the
Democratic party next year in the in
tercSt Of trusts and their companions
in industrial b~rigandage. and although
It's president and chief representative
IN North Carolina are 10Th RrpubIi-
cans, il Will doubtless furnish it's share
OF the sineWs Of war to the new Cid
con 5 Esnd which has undertaken the
Job. a Job to which Mr.. Buffers paper
and other Republican papers in the
state have given their hearty endorse
ment. There may be good Democrats
who are aiding this movement who do
not yet fully understand the far reach
ing purpose its leaders have in view.
but when they do, they will desert il
like rats q sinking ship.

SHIRT WAIST BOXES
ARE NECESSARY NOW

Shirt waist boxes are now deemed
quite as much OF the dressing room
furniture as its chairs and tables, so
convenient a storage receptacle are
they for many small garments In addi-
ton to those for the fresh keeping OF
which they were originally designed.
They are especially priced by college
girls, whose wardrobe space is usually
so limited that the slowing away Of
freshly Numbered linen and extra
blouses Of a delicate material Is some-
times a problem difficult to solve.
While these o receptacles are now
made In various dimensions, the most
practical are OF window embrasure size
as they are not only sufficiently roomy
to accommodate hats Of generous pro-
portions, but also form a substantial
seat. The printed cretonne covered
boxes. although exceedingly
tai, and In harmony with a chintz or
simply decorated chamber. are not now
considered SO mart looking as are
those covered with plain, dark hued
denim. These latter are often attrac-
lively frightened with brass or plated
silver triangular pieces set owe their
various corners, and sometimes have
matching metal ~nailheads studding
their gimp bound edges.
More substantial looking than the
c%retonne and denim covered boxes are
those OF natural wood covered with
willow and bamboo basket weaving.
These usually stand on short, castor
fitted legs and have projecting lids
which, when raised, reveal a compart.
ment divided tray.
