ture and sale of tobacco, coffee and

Seavey, New York, managing direc-
tor of the National Association OPP

Cincinnati to confer with men inter-
ested in forming a branch of the ma
tional association in Ohio and at
tended a meeting of tobacco men at
the Globe Tobacco warehouse, when
steps to organize a league to pro-
mote the tobacco industry and to
combat any propaganda to prohibit
were taken. Seavey addressed the
meeting and declared that the Wo-
mems Chistian Temperance union,
assisted by the Anti-Saloon League
and the AntiTea and Coffee league,
was already preparing to launch a
campaign against tobacco as soon
as prohibition of liquor is an estab-
lished fact. He stated that his as
ISOLATION had employed eminent
counsel to contest the Federal prohi-
bition amendment before the Su-
preme Court of the United States and
he expects it will be adjudged lille
gal.

Considerable difficulty Is being ex'
perienced by some OF the local oil
companies in obtaining leases In some
sections Of the valley. Not that people
win not sign leases but that they are
apt to delay beyond a reasonable per
iod in returning them, all OF which Is
obstructlng development work. No
one is expected to sign up an unfair
lease. but 1t would seem that 1t would
he wise at this time to give the de-
veloping companies all the chance pos
sible to get at the underground wealth
which biologists declare Is there. A
lease does not detract from the value
OF farm or grazing lands and II there
