CIGARS and CIGARETTES
WILL GROW SMALLER
Eight Cigarettes Instead of Ter
in a Package After Law
Goes Into Effect

Tobacco companies are planning to
reduce the size of their packages OF
cigarettes, cigars and tobacco ap-
proximately 20 per cent to meet the
prospective wal taxes on the tobacco
industry. Prices will remain as they
are, so that the war taxes on tobacco
| will be passed on to the consumer in
the way of less for his money.
An official of the supply depart
ment of the American Tobacco COM
pany stated that the plans for max
ing reductions in the cigarettes,
cigars and tobacco were only await
ing the announcement by the Wash
ington administration of just what
taxes are to be levied on the various
classes of tobacco products. The re-
duction is likely to be 20 per cent, he
stated.
For instance, the packages Of cigar
cites in which 10 smokes are now in
cluded, after the war taxes are effect
i've probably will contain only eight
smokes. The larger packages will be
reduced from 20 smokes to Is or 16.
The 10 and 15-cent packages of smok-
ing tobacco will be reduced in vol
ume and cigars will lose about one
fifth of their present size.
Dealers Hit Hardest
The tobacco, dealers assert they
will be the class of merchants hard
est hit by the war taxes. They not
only will have to pay income taxess,
excess profit taxes, but also special
commodity taxes on tobacco, and
taxes for engaging in the wholesale
or retail tobacco business. This JUS
titles them, they assert, in passing
along some of the war burdens to the
ultimate consumer.

INFORMAL MEETING HELD

A meeting of an informal nature
was held in the council chamber last
Thursday evening by the common
council and the board of education.
The board presented a chart show
ing the number pupils of school age in
each of the respective districts and
showing where most CONGESTION eX-
lists. The council was advised Of the
new law passed by the last legislature
whereby all pupils during certain pc
riods of the high school ere required
to attend manual training or domestic
science. During the past year there
were about 325 pupils in attendance
at the manual training school at the
old city hall. In carrying out the in
structions of the new law, approx
mately 800 additional pupils must at
tend the Industrial school eight hours
a week. This will necessitate addi-
tional school facilities. The most con
TESTED sections of the city at present
are the first, second, and third wards.
AS shown on the chart, this CONGESTION
can be eliminated by erecting an add
ton to the Longfellow school accord
ing to the plan submitted by the board
and as the growth of the city seems
to be in a southerly direction, due to
some of the new manufacturing plants
that have and are being erected, add
tional school facilities in that section
are very much in need.
A meeting of the common council
will be held this evening to take &C
ton on the recommendation of the
board

A nation, held under the bondages
of a usurperous monarchial autocrat1c
government through centuries, cannot
be democratized in the time it takes
to scratch a match.
The people who have been under the
pressure of monarchial absolutism,
its favorable educational campaigns,
scientifically developed to frame pub
lie ideas and policies, its harboring
of modern educational endeavors, are
not psychologically fit to govern
themselves.
They approach a governing stage
only after experiences of an anarchial
nature wherein each and every fac
ton cannot understand why it should
not be the governing body. Dissen-
ton comes first and it is followed by
united action only when the individual
factions agree to arbitrate their diff
ferences in order to secure the desired
government. Then internal strife and
confusion is eliminated.
Russia is an enormous country and
it's territorial divisions greatly ampli-
fly the difficulties of an initial dem
ocratic organization. We have conf
dence that if the Russian republic
only maintains complete territorial
unification and if oppositional fac
lions only make concessions toward a
common end, there will appear nu-
merous men fully as capable as the
present premier Kerensky, whose
name is now famous in every allied
country. German propagandists and
spys in Russia are not only endan-
gering Russia's allies, but are also
creating an extremely dangerous road
upon which the new unestablished re-
public must travel.

1t is nationally perceivable how
aliens in this country retain an at
tachment for the country across the
sea from which they immigrated. They
left for obvious reasons, doubtless
finding it far more advantageous from
a pecuniary point of view as well as
from that of personal freedom to be-
come an American citizen and to re-
main under Uncle Sam. They have no
kick coming.
And if Uncle Sam launches a serious
campaign against a militarism which
menaces the future prosperity, peace
and comfort of it's citizens, and from
which many of our aliens left the
old country to escape, should they
question the right and necessity Of it?
They, through their own experiences,
should perceive the reasons for our
participation.
We need not question the loyalty
of our citizens of near foreign descent
They sought more perfect surround
ings and they found them. They of
all persons, possess the knowledge to
more perfectly comprehend our prov
ocations as a nation.
