the very high prices placed on the
lower grades of leaf, he said.
Certain of the foreign countries
are compelled by the low purchasing
power of their people to produce a
cigarette or pipe mixture at a very
low price. They were forced to turn
to foreign grown tobaccos as a sub
stitute for American flue cured. The
great danger in this situation lies
in the fact that once a manufacturer
begins to use foreign grown sub
stitute tobaccos it is very difficult
to get him back to the use of our
tobaccos when, in time, the price
situation adjusts itself, the presi-
dent declared.
Ficklen warned against the in
dicated tendency to develop mar
keting procedure which will have
the effect of entirely removing low
priced tobaccos from the market.
'SSuch a policy is, I believe, most
dangerous for the farmers, as well
as the tobacco industry as a whole.
It will unquestionably operate to
our serious disadvantage in the eX-
port field, not only in the low
grades, but probably to some ex
tent in the medium and better
grades, he continued.
Certain countries buy from us
low grade tobaccos, as: well as
medium and good tobaccos, and
must have percentage Of the low
er priced grades in order to average
their costs. If by artificial regula-
tory measures the low grade to-
beccos are withdrawn from the
channels of trade, these countries
will necessarily turn elsewhere for
their low grade tobacco and may
rot come to us for their medium and
good tobaccos'.
J President Ficl1len outlined the ac-
complishments of various COM
mittees during the past year, pay
ing tribute to the benefits obtained
in both foreign and domestic fields
for the industry.

CHARLES FINLEY SEPARATED
FROM POSITION

Charles Finley, of Malta town

pointment in the local office of the
division of aid for the aged since
July /, 1888, has been separated
from the position. Word came Sat
urday to the local office, as follows:
This is to notify you Of the term
ination of the provisional appoint
ment of MFR. Charles Finley, investi-
gator. Morgan county office. division
Of aid for the aged, effective April
13"
During the time Mr.. Finley held
the position his work was Of the
very highest order. AS was well
known when he assumed the duties
that he would give the work his
very best conscientious services,
and we have to hear Of q single com
plant because Of his services, but
On the other hand we have heard of
much praise in his behalf. Mr. Fin
ley has the satisfaction of knowing
that he remained longer on the job,
than perhaps any other Democrat in
the state in like position. Who
viii be Mr. Finley's successor we do
not know, but We will wager his
services will be of no higher order
than Mr. Finley'S.
