SMOKERS GIVE UP
WAR ON TAXES

Paris, Oct. IS.-The smokers OF
| France have, after a bloodless war OF
| four months, capitulated and surren-
dered unconditionally to the minister
of finance, thereby proving their own
| weakness and furnishing their enc
mics with a weapon which now will
undoubtedly be used in all countries
the world over, where the govern
ment is in need of money-and what
government is not nowadays?
The French minister of finance
puffs at his Havana with truculent
| 1oyfulness. French smokers have alb
jectly justified him. His arrogant as
sertion was that the more you come
/ down on the smoker for taxes the
more he will smoke. New imposts on
all tobacco, cigarettes and cigars, eX-
| cept the unsmokable brands, having
been laid last May, the smoker dur
ing June and July derided the treas
ury.
The minister of finance fancied he
was going to have him, but he wasn't.
| To spite a grasping treasury, he
would go the length of self-sacTifice,
and, instead of smoking more. would
smAke less. The treasury would be
/ the only one to suffer. and. II goaded
much further, the smoker would give
up smoking altogether and drive the
state bankrupt.
The returns for June and July jus
| titled the rebellious smoker, and he
was wreaking his revenge. The treas
/ ury had a heavy deficit to record. and
the Society Against the Abuse of To-
| baCCo was considering the pTOpriety
of sending the minister of finance an
| Illuminated address of congratula-
! tiOn.
| But, the treasury merely bided its
| time, trusting in the fiabbiness of the
/ smokers Will power WHICH is emas-
culated by tobacco, as Tolstoi has told
us.
The treasury was right, and the
smoker growls aEain. He has given
up the struggle. He must smoke
more and more, whatever the cost.
When the cigars cost their weight in
gold, he will pawn the clothes of his
| back to smoke. The returns for the
end of September not only showed no
| continued falling off in the receipts
| from tobacco Duties, but a net in
crease of nearly S1.SOO.OOO rs aOm-
| pared with>the corresponding eight
months of last year. This is about
| S25O,000 more than even sanguine
minister had counted upon. Thus
smokers have not. only smoked less,
| but have actually smoked so much
more during the last month that the,
deficit for June, July and August be-
| ing deducted, the above large surplus
will remain.

The big Fight is on so far as detail
ed local report is concerned. and this
time It is not Gov. Gillett but The
Western Union that did it.
According to instructions received
at the Columbia office of the w. U.
there will be no detailed report OF the
gigantic istic clash furnished either
to Columians or to any Of that large
contingent of sport lovers who hoped
to hear the rounds called by an expe-
rienced operator. Whether or not
these plans will be changed remains
to be seen, but at any event tenn
porary halt has been called.
1t was expected that the Western
Union would fash the details OF the
fight all over the union, and arrange
ments had been made for calling the
fight here at the Opera House. But
some hitch has occurred, and the tel
egraph company has cried hands of.
What the trouble is has not been ex-
planned to local manager Yoest, but
| it is probable that the removal OF the
fight from Frisco to Reno has some
thing to do with it.
Not only does the embargo apply to
Columbia, but to all other places as
well. Arrangements at Nashville and
other large centers have been dcclar-
ed of, land unless the light breaks In
at some unexpected point there will
be nothing doing. The fight will be-
gin early in the afternoon at Reno. but
by local time would be about FIVE
o'clock.

as to picking the winning pug, but 1t
appears as if JEFF had slightly the bet

goes. He will open a favorite with
the Columbia sporting public, but 1t
will require the decision to convince
