WHY LIVING Is HIGH.


creased cost Of living. Below we re-
produce an editorial from the Wash
ington Post telling how rapidly the
cost has increased, and how much,
and giving some cogent reasons there
for:
"Prof. Joseph Francis johnson Of
the University Of New York presents
this nut for our doctors of political
and social economy to crack: 1T took
$3,623 last year to pay for necessaries
Of living that could be bought for
$4,000 in 1897. Sixty-nine cents ten
years ago had the buying power of
81 of today
"And the thing is growing more
threatening and more onerous for the
family with moderate fixed income,
every day. Indeed, unless some re-
lief is had the cost Of living by 1911
will become double what it was in
1897. There was a disastrous fnan-
cial panic in 1907 that shrunk every
estate between the two oceans and
threw thousands and tens of thous-
ands ont of employment; but it
brought to none cheaper shelter.
''Your corner grocer will charge
IS cents for a shot rabbit. The man
is scarcely so, who, as boy, sold a
dozen trapped rabbits for SO cents,
and made money and strengthened
health in the business. Two-score
years ago a dozen fine, fat and thifty
pullets could be had for So. Today
one such bird will cost Use.
Many things worked together to
make our country great, puissant and
opulent- government founded on lib
erty; a hardy, daring and adventur-
Gus people; empires of virgin, fertile
and cheap lands; salubrious eli
mate; inexhaustible stores Of cheap
raw materials; labor-saving contriv-
ances Of the first inventive genius on
earth, and so on, and so on. But not
the least Of the agencies operating to
create the America on the threshold
of the twentieth century was cheap
living, especially cheap food. That
made New York and Chicago the
world wonders they are. But there
is no longer cheap food for the subur-
ban population. It is a demonstra-
ted fact that the English working
man eats a cheaper breakfast than
his fellow in America, and his table
is supplied just as beautifully, if not
more so.
"Eere is how it is: Nothing on the
Englishman s breakfast table is taxed
except coffee, tea, sugar and perhaps
pepper. Everything on the Ameri-
cans table is taxed except coffee, tea
and pepper. 1t is fact that your
housewife will supply twenty persons
with coffee for what a steak for one
person will cost, but when it is pro-
posed to put tax on coffee to get
sorely needed revenue there is horror
in the land and the exclamation:
what! Tax the workingman s break

hurley on the open market.
In November Of 1908 things looked
dark for the Kentucky planters. But
an overwhelming victory was within
easy reach. In this month, November,
VicePresident Smith of the Ameri-
can Tobacco Co., made his appearance
in Kentucky to hold a conference with
Mr.. Clarence Lebus, president of the
Burley Tobacco Society Of the State.
There was also present at this confer
ence the seven members composing
the executive board Of the local or
ganlzatlon, representing the best bust
ness men in the blue grass region of
Kentucky.
The outcome Of the conference of
Vice-President Smith with represen-
tatives of the Burley Tobacco Society
was an offer from the tobacco trust
to buy in the entire crop of hurley
grown in 1906 at a graded price
amounting to an average of 500 a
hundred pounds, and to take all of
the tobacco in the pool Of 1907 at an
average price Of SIT.
It was also the desire of the tobacco
octopus to include in its mammoth
purchase not only the large bulk, but
the entire boarded holdings of the
Burley Tobacco Society, but to this
the league would not agree. They re-
fused to part with their entire hold
ings, which would have worked a hard
ship on all independent manufac-
turers, but retained a certain per cent
for the use of the independents
against the earnest appeals of those
manipulating the big deal for the
American Tobacco Company.
Some idea of the amount Of money
passed can be gained by multiplying
more than 1O0,OOO,OOO pounds of to-
bacco by Is cents a pound, or by
learning that $500 hogsheads Of to-
bacco were shipped out of Clarke
county alone, going to all sections Of
the United States, 1876 hogsheads be-
ing shipped daily. It is also said by
Mr. Hunt that not less than 100000
has and is being distributed to plant
ers in the county Of Clarke alone, al
though this county ranks sixth in i'm
portance in proportion to the bulk Of
it's crop Of hurley tobacco among all
counties comprised in the hurley belt.
Following the signal victory over
the tobacco trust, a grand blowout
and banquet was given by the officers
and members Of the Burley Tobacco
Society at their headquarters at Win
chester, in Clarke county, at which
representatives from Congress, mem
bers of the bench Of the Supreme
Court of Kentucky, and representa-
tive citizens from all parts of the
State took prominent part.
1t is said by Mr.. Hunt that the per-
sonnet of members going to make up
the Burley Tobacco Society of Ken
lucky compares more than favorably
with that of the Legislature Of The
State. Kentucky is wild over the vie
tory she has achieved, and the humili-
alton she has brought to the Ameri-

LEGAL STATUS OF BILLBoARDS
Wilkesbarre Judge Defines Limit Of
Regulation by Police.

Regulation by Police.
Judge Fuller OF Wllkesbarre. Pa. has
handed down n decision giving the
legal status OF blllboards. against
which municipal campaigns have been
waged I'm scores of cities and towns
throughout the United States. He says:
Police regulation I'm this respect
does not extend as far as prohibition.
It may consider the ear and the nose.
but not the eye OF the citizen. IT may
guard the health, the safety and the
morals. but not the aesthetic taste. Of
the community.
"a statute or ordinance may pro
hibit all billposting upon public streets
or public property, but may not pro-
hiblt blllposting upon private prop
erty unless the public health. safety or
morals are affected. The legal test or
prohibition is public nuisance. not prl.
vate annoyance.
''The whisky poster I'm sight OF
church or schoolhouse may inGict pain
upon the minister or teacher. the cir
Gus poster at tho very portal OF
$2,0OOOO0 courthouse may causc the
judicious 20 mourn, and the CHASTITY
combinations OF shape and color which
assault the vision on every side may
agonize persons OF refined tastes. but
so long as the pesky things are secure
against falling upon the passersby, so
long as they entail no risk OF fire with
I'm proper fire limits. so long as they do
not smell bad or spread disease and
so long as they do not offend the moral
instincts OF mayor and police they en-
Joy absolute constitutional immunity"
