OCAL NOTES AND TOBACCO JOTTINGS. BY O- L. JOYNER. The Danville Zobacco Journal plies to Editors ‘Harmva and febster- The Danville man has 2% mud in his eye on account or © position taken by the North arolina editors. The Journal aroused the ire of couple of North Carolina edi- rs, in its account of the testi- ony taken in this city in the faston =Sigaretie machine suit, R recently. The more. formidable ‘not a decedent of Daniel, however lof the two, Mr. Jno. R. Webster, :8 editor of Webster's Weekly, in Reidsville. Mr. Webster, gener- ally speaking, is a fa.r-minded igentieman and a oprilliant writer on subjects with which ke is fa- miliar, Nurtk Carolina politics, etc. But, nnfortanately, at times be allows himself to become »so blinded by prejudice that he goes far astray, as in the present 1n-! stance. The other irate editor is Mr. B. E. Harmon, editor of the Win- ston Zubacco Journal. Te Sournad in the article refer red to, gave % fair criticism of the evidence takou in Danvilie. The portion which did not meet with the approval of Messrs. Webster and Harman is as fol lows: It seems that the defendant is Oasing his cause more upon the hopes of proving the American Pobacco Compauy to be a trast, and unworthy the protection of the Government, than in the mer- its of his patent. The testimuny taken here was for the purpose of showing that Since the formation of the Ameri- can Tubacco Company cigarette tobacco has greatly depreciated in yalue, ia Coaseqience of this formation. The evidence, how- ever, proved the contrary: That cigarette tobaccos were bringing better pricez thau any other class ot tobacco except wrappers, and thatif there is any difference in|‘ prices now and what they were before the formation of the com- pany, the difference is that the average price is better now. Mr. Webster, with red-hot zeal and no discretion, distorts the first paragraph into a positive assertion on our part that the de- fendants are basing their cause solely upon proying the company to be a trust, aad theo rants in the modern Websterian style, cal. tivated only by a select few of the editorial fraternity of Reids- ville. . In regard to the second para- graph. he says: “Mr. Graham ‘takes the cake, when he says the evidence taken at Dauville proves the price of cutters on that mar- ket now are higher than they were before the trust was formed.” ot ios ‘regard oy: quoting the tors is sublime. in the extreme. Winston Journal as anthority|It is doubtt: thatthe American Tubacco Com- pany made one year 100 per cent on the capital invested, and hence they must necessarity get their catters cheaper in order to de- clare such a dividend. Harmon in this imposed upon your too- ready credulity, Brother Webster If you follow his figuring so im- plicitly we are very much concern- ed lest you wilisoon occupy the central cell in that straight jacket institution you refer to. if the entire cutter crop was given to the American Tobacco Company, it could not aeclare any such dividend. Mr. Harmon, white more gen- lemanly in bis article than the other brother, is just as far astray He says: Siding with tha enemy.—Very much to the surprise of every-— body an editorial appeared in Danville Zobacco JSournal last week giving comfort tothe ene— my- tothe enemy of its own as weil as all other Southern leaf mirkets and .vbacco manufact - urers- It took sides with the American Tobaces Company in vhe suit of that concern against the Wiuston Cigarstte Machine |= Company, stating that it seems, etc. To this we have only to say that the Journal is published in, the interest of the tobacco trade as a whole, andif any individual. firm or branch of the trade is “comforted” by the unbiased publication of facts as they ap— pearin this paper, we are not ly satisfied but gratified also. e@ cannot fabricate facts nor figures, neither can we ast the ghoul in order to win trade. Mr. Harm>a facthor saya : Any statement that cutters are selling higher now than before the birth of the Amerizan Tobac co company is absurd. Nearly jeverybody oatside of the trast or its influense says to the coatrary. It stands to reason that with prac- | tically no competition oa the mar- kets prices should drop. This may be true with markets Mr. Harmon is most faziliar with, but on the Danville market thsre is reasonable com petition on every grade of tobacco, and among the most active sorts are bright to- baccos suitabie for cigarette man- ofacturing- os Mr. Webster whawe his wisdom The egotism of this pair of “edi- 894 j@ catter whe. he sees it, aud the latter 18 located on a market where but a small quantity of cigarette tobacco is sold, yet they pit their. judgment agaivst the judgment of the gentlemen who recently testi fied regarding the Prices of cut- ters before and eince the forma- tion of the American Tobacco Company—gentiemen .who were speculators in these guods before * the formation of the American Tobacco Co., and are now com- petitors on this market for that class of tobaveco—men whose char- acter is above reproash. Yetthis precious pair says it ain’t so, be- cause it dues not suit them for it to be so.

CHINESE LAWS. - Flowery Kingdom Is Well Gov- erned, But Largely Self-Ruled. 4 Resident of Shanghai Telis of Peculiar Methods of Administering Justice— Good Home Rulers But Very Poor tkighters. “The home life of the Chinese,” said William Russell, of Shanghai, ‘appears to be little understood out- side the limits of the Flowery king- dom. The most powerful institu- tion in China is the family. The most remarkable attribute of the family is its ability to exercise ju- dicial powers upon its members. If a Chinaman commits a minor of- fense, the law, as we term it, takes no cognizance of thecase. The fam- ily takes upon itself the punishment of the offender by flogging or im- prisonment, and the compensation of the injured party. It is only in the graver offenses, such as murder, that the culprit is handed over to ju- dicial authority. ‘The ability of the Chinese family to sustain its feudal prerogative is owing to its being part and parcel -bof the land itself. There are no land- lords ion China. The land is the property of the state and the occw piers pay a small tax to the former for the use of it. This tax must be paid whether the land is cultivated or not; no family, therefore. makes itself responsible for more land than its members can care for. The state further reserves the right where the occupiers do not do justice to their holdings to dispossess them and relet it. This land tax ranges from twelve to forty cents per acre, and the average size of each holding is nine acres. Apart from this glebe each family has the inalienable right to two acres of land, which is strict- ly entailed upon the family and fur- nishes the site of the homestead. The members of the family who in trying their luck in the adjacent cities fail to make a success have al- ways the ancestral home to fall back upon and the accompanying farm to work on and live by. A poor law is unkuown in China, and failureis not to be found in the lexicon of the labcring class. Another point which younger nations might incorporate in their code is the respect paid to the aged in China. The old people jal %?\are assigned the best rooms in the REFLECTOR OFFICE —IF YOU WANT— family home, and are not in any S| way looked upon as worn out or un- kidesirable relations.

Use of the Hump. There are some men in this world who can answer any question that is put to them, and sometimes when they do not really know what they are talking about they will give an- swers that are not at all bad. One of these persons was once a keeper of the London Zoo. He was pestered by questions, but he always gave an answer. On a recent occasion a countryman strolled in and, after looking curidusly at the camel for a few moments, he turned to = keep- er and said: ‘*‘} say, mister, what’s he have a hump for?” - ‘*‘What does he have a hump for?” repeated the keeper. **Yes; what’s the good of it?” asked the visitor. ‘“‘Why—er—to make a camel of him, of course,” replied the keeper after some hesitation. ‘‘People wouldn’t travel miles to -see him if he dida’t have that hump. Fact is, without it he might as well be a 20w. > The stranger departed well satis- fied.—Harper’s Young People. ESTABLISHED 1875. S.N?.
