No i tf HIGH COST OF LIVING Advance of Forty-eight Per Cent Under Present Tariff. IEUSTS GET .MOST OP THE PLTTSDEB Compact Brlwn HepabllcMi I ollll clans and Mo no poll at a For Mutual BenrBI- The Uotr Earner and Thone With Klwd Incomea lb Principal So"r. If t!ie constitution had not provided for free trade In tween tbe states this country would iievor liave advanced to its jirosoirt iositiiu of power and wealth. Kuril swei;il Interest or prod uct produced in every state would soon have been clumurlni; for protection from tne coinpetitiou of its neighbor ing and sister state, and a virtual em bargo would have existed against In terstate commerce. Hut what cannot lie done to prohibit trade between the states has lioen iieeoiniilished to pre vent trade with other nation and to tax the people iff the Vnited States if they undertake to Import foreign prod ucts. At the oirtset, wlien this country was struggling to establish manufac tures and free itself from the extortion of the neither country, a tariff on im ports was desirable. Ith for protec tion and for revenue, but the tax Im posed did not exceed in per cent, whereas now it exewds imi the average 50 per ceut. If tlnw pivsent enormous tariif dutkrs were necessary to sup povt the government tls'ii- would be some excuse for tlie!r imimsltion, but ou many manufactured products the duties are ao high as to ) pro hibitive aial actually prevent Imports, In many cases exceeding 1' h jht cent and in some ras L'nt jor cent. Tills high tariff has naturally f.wter ed combines and trusts in this coun try, to take advantage of the oppor tunity for mouoimly. 1 "rices have In-cn-ased enormously, in consequenct of lack of conijH-tition, anl the cost of liviug has advanced 48 per cent since the present tariff law was enacted In 1!!7. But a small Hrcentage of this Increase is collected by the govern ment, but the far greater icrcentaga la collected by the trusts and combines, which control about all the general products eonsunxxl by the American people. This trust taxation has led to vigor ous protests by the plundered taxpayer, and in many states the independent Republicans are a hostile to the pres ent tariff system as the Democrats are. But these protests have fallen on deaf or Indifferent ears, and the party In power Is still standing pat. It is no exaggeration to say that there Is a compact between the Republican lead ers and tbe trust monopolists to con tinue this unholy alliance for mutual advantage, the trusts and combines getting the lion's share of the plunder and the Republican campaign funds a good percentage to keep that party In powej. If this same tariff, system was In op eration between the several states each one would have its tariff monop olists and commerce between the states would, on many products, he al most at a standstill. The vast concen tration of the great Industries at the points where the raw material Is mast available or where tbe skilled labor 'IS located would have been impossible, for the rival Interests in other states would have leen clamoring for protec tion. agdn tariff walj yyild have been erected uround most oT The states to prevent the free ltnorts of other states, such a wall exists touay be tween us and Canada, between us and Mexico and eveu tx'tween our own col ony of the Philippines, not to mention the wall letweeu us and Kurope. In spite of this tariff tax and restric tions the necessities of our people have force! iniurtatious from aud exports to all these countries. IT Hie lariff wall was lowered to a reasonable tariff for revenue Imsis there would be more trade and therefore more money made, and, more Important yet Ihe trusts and combines would 1m: comtelled to re duce their profits, and tlie cot of living would decline from 4s jmt cent above the normal to tbe proportion that the tariff rates are reduced. r therealxiut.

An expert observer on the manu facture of chewing tobacco claims that it is the planter's process of fluecuring, producing and develop ing the stimulating flavor and bou quet of the tobacco grown on cer tain lands in the Piedmont tobacco belt, which popularizes the chewing tobacco habit. K. J. Reynolds 'tobacco Com pany's factories are located in the famous Piedmont Hue-cured tobacco belt, the finest chewing tobacco section known to the world. This kind of tobacco requires less sweet ening to please chewers than any other tobacco grown. The Com pany's location enables it to secure the choicest selectioLB of this flue cured leaf, which are mauufactured under the personal supervision of men who have made the selecting aud blending of this particular kiud of tobacco for chewing pur poses their life study. The Reynolds' plant for the manufacture of Schnapps aud other of its bracds of chewiug tobacco, are operated largely by machinery, in the most hygienic manner, and reveals a system of cleanliness that would do credit to a model house hold. The old adage of "too many cooks" holds good in tobacco manu facturing. The Company has re duced the handliug of tobacco to a minimum. Automatic conveyors take the leaf to the brushing ma chine" (specially invented for the Keyuolds Company), where, bv an ingenious process, every leaf is brushed and cleaned. After this brushing and cleaning, the tobacco drops into another conveyor aud is carried to the sweetening machines, where the sweetening is applied ..utomatically, thereby insuring a uniformity and cleanliness impossi ble by the ordinaiy method; and thus, with the idea" of cleanliness always paramount, the tobacco is conveyed automatically from one machine to another, throughout nearly the entire process of manu facture. The pleasant and appetizing aroma of the tobacco leaf used, and the cleanly methods of manufactur ing have caused visitors to the Com pany's factories to experience their first desire to chew tobacco. - Married. Mr. Junius Mitchell aud Mies Haflsie Bean, both of High Point, were married on August 8th. They passed through here on theii way to the home of the bride's father, Mr. Henry Bean, of Richland Townehip.
