This promise is made in the letter
that follows. We had sent Mr.. Lewis
some free samples Of Edgeworth las

Gentlemen:
I am q smoker of good tobacco for
over 20 years and have no hesitancy in
saying that of all smoking tobacco
Edgeworth in my estimation occupies
the first place.
Having smoked It for q number of
years in many different parts Of our
own good u. S. A., and also Alaska and
Cuba-it has always given me supreme
slnoke-satisfaction, at all times, any
where, everywhere, regardless Of eli
matte changes or any other hocus-p -pocus.
Ny object in sending for the free
samples (if you will forgive mel was
to determine whether or not Edgeworth
was being made any different-that
possibly the samples like whiskey
samples used to be) were the best and
finest Of the whole output.
But on smoking the samples I find no
difference whatever, and so am con-
vineed beyond the shadow Of doubt
that Edgeworth alWays 10 Of tho same
superior quality in all its forms, and
further, that nv little Joke IN asking
for and receiving something for noth-
ing will be excused by you on the plea
Of curiosity.
In thanking you kindly for your
courtesy in sending free samples.
hereby solemnly promise to fill any
mans (reasonable- -sized) pipe with
Edgeworth tobacco Of my own pur-
chase, to convert him TO that really
good smoke, 'Edgeworth."

A year ago the unsecured loans did
not exceed $500, 100000, but since
that time the provinces have seized
the salt fields. WI Pel-fu seized the
revenues Of the Peking- Hankow rail-
road and Chang Tso-lin seized the
northern half of the Peking- Mukden
railroad. WI Pei-fu also seized por-
ton of the telegraph revenues. These
government enterprises have had
measure Of foreign supervision to in
sure reasonable efficiency, but the
properties have been seized by the
military despite the protests of for
eign investors.
Just one good security remains, the
customs. That souIce is under rigid
foreign control and being established
mainly in port cities accessible to for
eign gunboats, is in little danger Of
seizure.
The customs is taxed to the pres
ent limit by foreign loans, only .
small portion each month being avail
able Tor the government. An increase
of one and half per cert is soon to
90 INFO effect, but most of this in
crease, according to the Washington
Conference agreement, must go for
liquidating the foreign debts.
At the lowest estimate it requires
$500 900 a month to pay the coun-
try's bare administrative expenses
and the government heads can find
but $l,000,000.
The military expenses must wait
under any condition and this is nine
tenths OF the whole governmental eX-
pense of China.

produce was apparent Saturday at the
city market. Corn is selling for from
- to 30 cents a dozen, md lima beans

viii keep the price up. Eggs are sell
ing now for 80 cents dozen. One of
the farmers explained that this was
due to poor shipments Of eggs from

large part Of our supply.
Potatoes are about the same price.
