TexnnesseeTs Anti-Cigazetto Law.
Tonressee has taken an advancs
step in the fight against cigarettes
by the passage of a law which is
aimed to drive them from the
State and prevent their being
shipped into it. The law is
sweeping and explicit. Li pro-
hibits the sale, manufacture or
disposal in the State ; it prohibits
their importation from other
States, and also prohibits the sale
of cigarette papers: The efforts
in other States to legislate the
cigarette out of the State by pre-
venting iis sale and stopping the
importation of it haye not so far
been successful, and it remains to
be seen how the manutacturers
| will treat the Tennessee law. Tue
rights of interstate commerce
have thus fer stood between the
ocigarette fiends� and the pro-
hibitory laws. It appears, how-
ever, that the dealers in TonnesT
sge are willing to let the new law
have its way. as they disposed of
all cigarettes on hand, in order to
be ready for it when it went into
