Let a Maysville citizenNspeak.
Fred Dresel, tailor and Justice Of the
peace, 1888 East Second Street
says: 81 was troubled byyinfamatior
of the bladder and annoyance from

small of my back which greatly inter
fered with my work. DoafRs Kidne!

Mr.. Dresel gave the above Ntatemen

ton increased leaf costs and the high
er price for labor. In this connection
they have only taken the position as
sumed by many other industrial con-
GERMS
In other words, while the tobacco
manufacturers will all show record
business in 1918, It must not be as
sumed that the percentage increase in
any way represents the percentage
increase in pounds or packages of to-
bacco goods sold to the people of this
country and our soldiers abroad. or
course, there has been a remarkable
gain even en- this basis, but not as re-
markable as simple SAFES figures
would indicate.
The increased cost of leaf since the
/ start of the war has been one of the
big problems for the tobacco manu-
facturers of this country. 1t has ne
cessitated the raising Of additional
working capital by not only the tobac-
co manufacturers, but the snuff man
ufacturers as well. Both Liggett &
Myers and American Tobacco have Sc
cured large amounts of money and
the latter has put its common stock
dividends on scrip basis in order tc
keep additional money in the treasury
Despite all this tobacco securities are
now selling at the highest price of thu
last three years, and the buying of thu
stocks has been of the confident char
acter that would indicate belief o
/ continued, If not even greater, pros
perity for the industry.

the members thereof, then the United
States must be dragged into every
broil in Europe, and since the League
will have to see to a finish any ordeal
by sword into which it enters, the re-
sources of the greatest industrial and
most peace loving nation on earth
must always be at the command Of
the League.
Arbitration with such enlightened
nations as England and France will
suffice in the future, as it has during
the past century, to smooth out diff
culties, and it will be much more eff
fective with other nations, impressed
as they have been with the horrors OF
war, and with the unity Of civilizing
purpose possessed by England, France
and the United States. But as long
as any two nations, or groups of ma
tons, are insistent on possessing ar
identical advantage no League or
earth can absolutely prevent war

SOVEREIGNTY AND A LEAGUE OF
NATIONS

Washington-The Republican Pub
licity Association through its Presi-
dent, Hon. Jonathan Bourne, Jr., to-
day gave out the following statement
from its Washington Headquarters:
preservation of national sover-
eighty is incompatible with member
ship in a League of Nations. Sover-
eighty is the supremefi, absolute, un-
controllable power by which any
State is governed. 1t is an indivisible
attribute of true statehood. In Ger
many and Russia, heretofore, it has
been~vested in Kaiser and Gar, in
Japan, at present, in the Mikado, in
England, France and the United
States it is vested in the enfranchised
citizens.
"In order to make League of Ma
tions potential some agency must be
created clothed with power not only
to write its DEGREES, but to enforce
those DEGREES. The proposed League
contemplates some sort Of interna'
tional tribunal which shall define the
rights, duties, and obligations of 1t!
constituent members, determine theil
external policies, and be the court o.
last resort in II mttears of dispute
arising between member nations
while at the same tim exercising
guardianship over nations not deemed
by the court itself to be eligible TO
admission to the League. 1t is sug
gested that nations might enter thi
League upon making certain reserva
tions with respect to internal policies

TOBACCO COMPANIES
TO SHOW RECORD SALES
American Tobacco and Ligsett q
Myers WIN Divide Close to s"oo''
10000 Of Business In Cur
rent Year.
(Wall Street Journal.)

American Tobacco Company ana
Liggett & Myers Tobacco Company
will run q close race in the matter Oh
1918 gross business. On the OASIS oi
results over the first eleven months
the first should show a sales result
between $14O,OOO,OOO and sl45,OOO'ooo'
In the first nine months Of the current
year Liggett & Myers sales amounted
n s10S. 900 900, or an annual rate OF
about $143,OO0,OOO.
This is the first time that 1t has
been possible to secure exact sales
figures for the Liggett & Myers con-
Germ or rather the first time since the
dissolution of the Tobacco Trust. The
company has only shown net results
in its annual statement to stockhold-
ers.
The straight tobacco business OF the
former combination was divided
among four concerns-American To-
bacco, Liggett & Myers, the p Lorii-
lard Company and R. ]. Reynolds. Inc
first two have always done the lar
gest amount of business and in fact
the apportionment under the courts
dissolution decree was made on such
a basis. The figures given above show
that these two companies will divide
between them close to $3OO,OOO,OOo o.
business in the current yaer.
AS no sales figures of Liggett q
Myers for 1917 are available, it ma!
be assumed that its rate of sales IN
crease has been in proportion to tina
of the American Tobacco Company
The latter in 1917 did business o
slightly less than $9O,00O,OOO whicl
would indicate an increase in gross II
the current year Of something like 2
per cent. Inasmuch as 1917 had BEEF
the previous record year, with an av
erage years turnover of about $40
100000, results in 1918 cannot be con
sidered other than most remarkable.

but 1t should be remembered that all
reservations become sooner or later
the prey to encroachment on the part
of the superior power.
"As situation, somewhat analogous
confronted this country when the
Union was formed. Many of the
States believed that in joining the I'm
ion they did not thereby relinquish
their sovereignty, but simply set up
central authority to conduct the af-
fairs of government for what they re-
cognized a confederation merely. Did
sovereignty vest In the whole people
with the adoptio nof the Constitution?
Did it gradually flow to the whole peo-
pie with the acceptance by the major
ity of the States Of the long line Of
John Marshall's decisions? Or did
each State retain its sovereignty?
Those questions led to the civil war,
which definitely located sovereignty
from 1865 I'D to the present time. Are
we now to pass 1t to higher power?
No doubt both sides in the bloody con-
troversy of the soc are agreed that
the outcome was for the best inter-
ests of the country for it welded this
great republic into homogeneous ma
ton. Are we prepared to affirm how
ever, that war to compel us to abide
by the arbitrament of an internation-
al tribunal would conduce to the best
interests of this Nation? No League
can be set up unless each Nation de-
legates some of its powers, or, in
other words, yields its sovereignty.
and the aggregate of powerthus dele
gated to the central tribunal renders
it more powerful than any member Of
Athe League.
A"If the decisions Of the tribunal,
fng for the League, are binding on

There is another side to the story,
however, and that concerns the high
or prices tobacco manufacturers are
receiving for their goods compared
with previous years. History shows
that government taxes on tobaccos
during war periods have invariably
been passed along to the consumer.
The prices of all forms Of tobacco
goods have been advanced at least as
much as the increas ed amount OF fed
eral taxes.
Not only have the TOBACCO manufac-
turers made up for the increased tax
levies by adding on to the price OF
goods for the smoker or chewer, but
they have also taken into considers
