TARIFF PUSHES TOBACCO vi

TARIFF PUSHES TOBACCO UP.
The local cigar factories and tobacco
dealers are In receipt Of a circular
letter signed by Fred Won Baum
bach, collector of internal revenue,
announcing the increase OF tax on
manufactured tobaccos and snuff of 6
to s cents per pound, the increase
going into effect July next. After
that date the manufacturers cannot
use the old rate stamps on the boxes
but must turn them in to have them
redeemed and use the new rate
stamps This will necessitate the TAX
ing of an inventory by the tobacco
manufacturers of this city.
Of course, with the raise IN the
revenue tax, goes the general raise on
snuff and tobaccos of all kinds, ex-
cepting cigars. That the prices of
chewing and smoking tobaccos which
have been in vogue 80 long may be
kept up, a changed In the weight OF 1t
will be made. For instance, what
formerly contained a pound will
contain but ii ounces. It is stated
that retail dealers will suffer the
most on snuff, as the weights, which
have already been reduced to a
minimum, cannot be lessened and it
will be hardly feasible to add cent OF
two to the cost of the packages as
they are put on the market. 49,

fire was again discovered in the under

but early Monday morning another
fire, originating in the same manner
as before, was again discovered in the
park. M. NJ. Williams was notined
and his men went out to extingulsh
the flames, which, with two section
crews sent out to help, they did after
some labor. Had the flames been
given chance to get into any of

what the park would have been
entirely ruined. Chief Finder and

and that the latter had drenched it.
with. water and then left contrary to
instructions. It was during his
absence that the smoldering mass was,
famed into flames. Three big hav
barns In the field and the horse barn
were the only buildings that escaped
the flames. and only some furniture
and households goods belonging to the
foreman of the farm were saved from
the residence, Mr.. Mathieson, on bis
arrival at the farm having ATTEMPTED
to confine the fire to-a few of the
other buildings The residence was
insured for $500 and no insurance was
carried on the furniture and household
goods, as at the time he had made out
the long term insurance policy on
buildings aud farm materials, he did
not furnish the residence, the foreman
doing So himself. Since then other
buildings had been constructed and
new machinery bought, but no extra
insurance taken out, although he had
consulted al agent regarding same.
The heaviest loss was suffered on the
grain, machinery, and lumber, cedar

CITY COUNCIL

The city council met last Friday
evening as per adjournment to take
up the matter of sidewalk grade
fronting the Realty Improvement COM
pany block, and the W. q: Ryan
AMI Close buildings, Aldermen
Bastien, Hall, Elvig, Lane and
Koslosky being present. In response,
TO the Invitation OF the city fathers
Messrs John Vertin, W. 81. Ryan
and L. E. Richard attended the meet
ing, Mr.. Vertln Iepresentlng' the
Realty improvement company. These
gentlemen asked that this grade
matter be settled by allowing the con-
struction of sidewalks IN front OF the
above named properties at a uniform
raise of SIX inches above street grade,
a slope of six inches to be made IN the
alley between the store rooms occupied
by the Heron Millinery and the
Diamond Sign Jewelry company. and
the city to rebuild the sidewalk at the
same level in front of the Richard
Bros. store and to First avenue north
east, a total of 100 feet in length. It
was thought that 1t would cost very
little more than $156 to rebuild this
walk, and by so doing all damages
would be waived by all the property
affected. No action was taken on the
matter, it being lett over to an
adjourned meeting to be held next
Thursday evening.
The bill of Jones & Terrell, in the
sum Of S39. Is for work on removing
of a standpipe on Broadway, and
which had been laid on the table, was
again laid over. This time SO that an
ltemized statement would be furnished
for same.
The sprinkling assessment was
affirmed, and the bill of j. K. Martin
for rebate on payment Of the Broad
way paving assessment, claiming that
same had been paid twice by HIM. was
referred to the city attorney for in
vestigation.
A communication received from
Luther hospital. Eau Claire, Wis.,:
was read, in which it was stated that
q Little Falls man, Torger Peterson
by name, who was without means.
had been taken there for treatment
and the management of the hospital
wished to know whether this city
would bear the expenses for same.
1t was decided that the man was not
entitled to such aid as he owned
some property, and the city clerk
was instructed to write and advise
the hospital of the councils action on
the matter. The matter Of appointing
dog catcher, who would act in that
capacity, was left over to the next
meeting.

Nominee for Governor Says He Will
Work for Progress of Entire
Republican Party.

SAULT STE. MARIE. Mich, Sept.
S.-Chase s. Osborn last night issued
the following statement:
Il feel no sense of personal citation,
but rather a sacred gratefulness Tor
the confidence and approval or the
Republican party in Michigan. MY
sole aim will be 10 dutifully fulhll
every pre-primary promise, II my
nomination is followed by election to
the governorship.
The campaign was an earnest one
and should make every Republican a
veteran in the dawning OF progressive
government. Naturally ! deeply APP
preciate the actions OF those who
were for me, but as the candidate OF
the Republican party there is no dis
tinction in my mind between those
who were for me and those who were
fairly against me.
NO matter what my personal views
may be they will be properly subor-
dinated to the platform that will be
adopted by the Republican state con-
vention at Detroit, Oct. 8, next. That
convention will no doubt reflect the
party attitude more accurately and
should be in more perfect sympathy
with the desires of the people OF
Michigan than Is any individual feel
ing. My public work is before me
and hope to be given the great light
to see and the strength TO perform 1t. =
