for $3.50 per Hundred Pounds.

Hopkinsville, KY, May IT,
Prices on loose tobacco scared on
this market last week, one lot Of
Todd county tobacco bringing
the high price of $13. 30 per hun
dred pounds. This is rs cents
higher than any price made here
this season and is said to be the
highest price paid this year on
any market in the dark tobacco
district. The sale was made
Wednesday at the loose sales
warehouse of ], p. Thompson &
90. OF course this tobacco was
very fine, but prices on all grades
ruled very strong throughout
the week. Offerings were good
considering the comparatively
small amount that remains I'M
sold in the country. Most of the
tobacco that was sold loose dur
ing the week came from adjoin-
ing counties, some of which still
have good portion Of the crop
on hand.
The Planters Protective Asso-
citation salesroom also scored a
rise in prices, some 1908 tobacco
bringing $11 per hundred, this
being of medium grade.

We also have two sisters, aged
ten and four, respectively, and
their little brother aged seven
whom we would like to place in
the same home if possible. They
are as good children as we have
ever had in the home, and are so
strongly attached to each other
that we would dislike to part
them. However, if we cannot
find a home for all three together
we would like to find some one
willing to take the sisters. We
also have larger children.
We only place our children in

ROOSEVELT AND TAFT

Submission of the constitutional
amendment. providing for national
income tax. is significant of two
things: the tendency Of great minds
to simplify things, and the unerring
instinct Of President Taft for lawful
methods. Ever since the supreme
court declared the Cleveland income
tax unconstitutional, we have been
clamoring to change the supreme
court. Mr.. Taft suggested changing
the constitution.
Mr.. Roosevelt and Mr.. Taft are
always ethically in harmony. because
both are right; but their tempera-
ments differ Mr.. Roosevelt aroused
the nation to the necessity for re-
forms and progress; Mr.. Taft is show
ing us how to accomplish those re-
forms with the least friction and by
lawful means. A Taft is always nee
essary after a Roosevelt. He would
never be understood before a Roose-
welt. ~
When the unframed, but unerring
public conscience is aroused, IL sees
usually nothing but its ideal, and the
ultimate end to be obtained. The
shortest cut appeals to the popular
fancy as the simplest. Il Is then
that the hour calls for a man, who
steadies the popular zeal and directs
its purpose in lawful channels.
