Tobacco Coming In.

The Lancaster Tobacco Warehouse is
open for business and several small
crops have already been received. Mr.
Jake Grau who was with Mr.. Speith
here last year, has arrived from Louis
vile and will be here during the sea-

but the majority of the raisers are
giving their attention to other branch
es of farm labor and are waiting a
good rain before attempting to handle
their tobacco.

FISHERS INDIAN POLICY

CHICAGO, Oct. 31-Secretary Walter
H. Fisher of the department of the in
terror, before leaving Chicago today,
gave out an interview on the Indian
question, a problem which has been
the despair of every secretary of the
interior since the Indian department
was organized.
The one note rings through Secretary
Fishers talk-attention to detail. This
according to Mr.. Fisher, is the only
manner in which the department can
successfully cope with the multitude E
problems which daily confront it in re-
gard to the wards of the nation.
"Of all the government sub-depart-
ments, the Indian department is the
one which demands a real humane,
warm blooded man." declared Secretary
Fisher.
Il never realized the human side If
the Indian question until l took hold
of the department of the interior.
look on ii as an ordinary department,
to be administered by strong man
without a preference for political
favorites. But when l see letters come
in which demand individual attention
to the wants of a certain Indian, the
education of his children, the allotme NJ
of land to his family, the supplying of
farm machinery and seeds for his
planting, then 1 realize that here the
government of the United States must
cease to be a machine of justice and
become a savior Of human flesh and
blood.
For this reason l have asked that

term, We are In tho dark as TO
whether Governor Wilson accepts that
plank or not, for he has failed to men
tion it.
But some one says that Colonel
Roosevelt expressly declared he would
not accept another term, and that by
changing his mind he is subject to the
charge of being inconsistent. Very
well. Now, listen to the vacillating
Washington. When he laid down his
commission as commander-in- chief Of
the continental army, he said time and
again, orally and in writing, that lie
would not serve in any public office.
Washington Irving quotes him as say
ing formally in his farewell address to
congress: Having now finished the
work assigned me, 1 retire from the
great theater of action, and bidding an
affectionate farewell to this august
body, under whose orders 1 have long
acted, here offer my commission, and
take my leave of all the employments
of public life"
Later in many letters, but particu-
larly in one to Col. Henry Lee, in re-
Spouse to the suggestion that he should
allow his name to be used in the con-
test for the presidency, he said: might
not, after the declarations L have
made land heaven knows they were
made in the sincerity of my hearD in
the judgment of an impartial world and
of posterity, be chargeable with levity
and Inconsistency, if not with rashness
and ambition"

The increased space alone repre-
sents as much as some very big stores

This Is proof conclusive that the
merchant with small shop and good
merchandise can use small space prof
itably In newspapers, even In a Dig
city, and II he can do that In a big
city, how much more effectively can
1t be done In smaller communities?
A great many beginners at adyer'

who advertise spasnodically hesitate
to undertake an advertising campaign
because Of the feeling that they stand
a very poor chance Of getting adequate
returns because Of their inability to
buy big space in the newspapers.
