TOBACCO TRUST METHODS.

A few days ago this ape published
a report from the Bureau of Corpora
tons about the tobacco trust. 1t
traced step by step the growth of this
mighty monopoly as it "froze out or
swallowed about 250 tobacco con-
Germs. The leading purpose of the
men who have controlled 1t has been
to dominate the obacco industry
says the report, and it hoWs that 1T
has done this by bogus Independent
concerns and other legal methods
until it controls Yer three-fourths Of
the tobacco business. That report
shows that these men by manipulation
put millions of dollars in their pockets
which but for the transactions of the
"Consolidated' would have zone to

CLEARW AFTER COUNTY FAIR
WAS A SPLENDID SUCCESS
Agricultural Experts Pronounce the Exhibits of Vege
tables and Grasses the Best They Ever Saw, at
Any County Fair, Anywhere.

ment that he believed that the time
was coming when this section will
maintain a larger population per
square mile than the lands of the
Mississippi Valley, (Which were de-
veloped to a state of supposed per.
fection) by reason of its greater
ability for intensive farming.
The fair has been a huge success,
from every standpoint that will be
of benefit to the farmers of Clear
water county and prove of great
benefit as an educator of the more
advanced methods of farming, on
the success of which industry the
future welfare of the county depends.
The vegetable exhibit, together
with the display of grasses, corn,
grains and other agricultural pro.
ducts, is indeed wonderful for per-
lection and development.
This department of the fair exhibits
was under the supervision of O. T..
Davids and Henry Huseby, who
made the most of their opportunity
for fine display.
The different classes of vegetables
and other products were arranged
separately so that one could see all
of one class of exhibits in a single
collection.
There were large number of
squashes and pumpkins, lowered

New N. & |. Depot?

There has been considerable

Molly BaWn.

There is no lack of comedy interest
in Molly Bawn," the new play by
'Beaulah Poynter, which comes to
the City Opera House Monday night,
Sept. 81. The dramat;zation of
The Duchess" famous love story
has been deity handled by this
young and aspiring play builder aud
while the original story has been pre-
served, there has been introduced
comedy situations that are said to be
highly mirth provoking and yet
absolutely consistent with the plot.
Laughter chases away the tear ere
1t has left~the eye, and while essenti-
ally a play of sentiment, the author
has recognized that the purpose of
the stage is to entertain as we'll as
educate and elevate, and hence the
many delightful comedy situations
with which the play abounds.
The Duchess" novel has been
80 widely circulated and read that it
would seem that a following for the
play had already been created, but
even those who have not read this
fascinating tale of Irish life and love,
will be sure to find an absorbing in
terest in the story as it is told in the
four acts of the play.
The locale of the play is laid at
the beautiful Lakes of Killarney in
Ireland, and the English manor home
of the heroine's gorgeous scenic
effects. a fact that has been amply
taken advantage of by Messrs.
Nixon & Co., who it is said have
provided a scenic equipement of
surprising beauty. The company
is one of high standard of excel.

The evening program was splen-

OF the singers from Shaw and the
Brooks quartet. The dancers feet
