 WHO WANTS A CHEW?-Since the leaving of Charles R. Orborn, sec retary of the board of control there has been sent to the office of the board a large plug of chewing tobacco. as a sample. Although it is a well known fact that Charles does not use the nox- ious appetizer, it is a shame to have it come to the office for testing, at the time Miss Plumridge, acting secretary to the board. is in charge Osborn might learn to use the weed, and to that extent the tests would be easy, but to expect Miss Acting Secretary to make the trials and to pass on the worth of the tobacco. to expect a Wo- man to take to the pernicious habit of chawin' just to pass on the relative worth of the dope as food for cOnvicts and lunatics, to offer a black, ugly plug of tobacco to a fair stenOg.-the insult is too much. It is ground for the sender to get down on and apollo giZe; and in the south it is gross enough injury to cause shooting. Be ware, ye shippers, you are dangerous lv near the south.
 WOULD DO HIS BEST.
