ASHEVTLLE DAILY CITIZEN TUESDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 23. 1892. ASHEVILLE DAILY CITIZEN. Br RASDOLPH-KERR PRINTING CO The Daily Ciiusm. Democratic, to published rarr artosooa (except Suaaaj) at the (ut- iowm rata. tmcKy cau .- Omsj Tata . .e. 00 HI AfOMTHa. ......... 3.00 Th lsomrHa......-. . 1.B0 Om Mom ..-- - eo OM WtBK.... ................ IS TDESDAT, FEBRUARY 23, 1892. It it rumored that Chairman Clark ton, of the national republican commit tee, it mixing a little ot the elixir of poli tics with bit tcarch for rett and health while at the Battery Park in Asheville. Perhaps tome of the colored majority would do well to call on Mr. Clarkton, and tee if something cannot be done to make Jeter and the Major allow them tome slight privilege in the party coun cils. There are about 100,000 negro Toters in North Carolina, and Jeter and the Major can't pull together exceeding 25,000 with white skins. Chairman Clarkton should contider thit. Congressman Simpson, the great and only Sockless Jerry, from Kansas, says the sub treasury scheme will be relegated to the rear, and that tariff reform will be given precedence over the silver ques tion in the fall campaign. If Jerry had not said in the same interview that a third party would be formed, aad a ticket put in the field, this utterance might have come to betaken as a proph ecy, but with the sub-treasury lunacy eliminated, and free silver left out, the platform of a third party would be as short on planks as the distinguished Kansas statesman is reputed to be on socks. Governor Pai'tisun, of Pennsylvania, at the solicitation of the Pennsylvania railroad and Master Workman T. V. Powdcrly, of the Knights of Labor, has instructed the attorney general of that state to see that the constitution and laws are not violated by the Reading railroad in the matter of its great coal combine. Combines are becoming so fashionable in everything, that it takes pretty strong nerves to attack them, but Governor Pattison is noted for being long on nerye. Few things could be more calamitous than a monopoly ol fuel, and it is to be hoped this eti'ort, it such it be, will be choked to death in its infancy. The government is forced to suspend work upon the public highways in the District of Columbia, or else borrow money to continue this indispensable improvement. This shows the condition to which the present republican administra tion has brought the treasury, and this too in the face of the tact that Grover Cleveland turned over to President Har rison a treasury containing a surplus of one hundred million dollars. An admin istration that has the gall to go before the people and ask for an endorsement after such a record is worthy of a top column position, next to reading matter, when the historian ef the luture begins to write. Either Mayor ISIanton did right in issuing to Gen. Young the city's nate for $3,000, and in paying himself $550 for a three weeks trip to New York, and in settling with the East street contractors without the authority of the board, or he did wrong. It was either legal or il legal. If these acts were right and legal, he can repeat them as frequently and in such amounts as he may see fit. If they were wrong and illegal, the board of alder men should take steps to have them righted. If the board it indisposed or afraid to act, the people should appeal to the courts for protection. This is plain talk, but no other kind is worth the effort. Senator Palmer, of Illinois, certainly does not show any lack of political shrewdness in speaking good words for Cleveland. If as it now appears to some of hit pessimistic friends, Mr. Cleveland's chances for the nomination have gotten to the zero notch, it certainly will not be disputed that he has a large sized man tle in the way of a following, which will fall on some one, should he fail Solomon said, "a soft answer turnetb away wrath," and had he lived in these glorious days, he might have added another proverb and said, a kindly word spoken in season, may draw many votes in a convrntiaa. J. M. Palmer is no fool. Thb colored voters of North Carolina would do well to investigate Jeter Pritch- ard, and Major Rollins, t see whether these gentlemen really mean to allow them to vote the republican ticket tbit fall. It seems plain that if this privil ege it accorded them, they need not look for farther recognition. Jeter and the Major showed very plainly on the occasion of their tariff league convention in Asheville a few months ago, that if negroes will attend their meetings it must be to be seen, not heard. Charley Lane doubtless still has a distinct recollection of the gag applied to him on that oc casion when he wanted to speak for nine tenths of the republican party iu North Carolina. If credence it to be given the sworn statements, to say nothing of the letters produced, of Mrs. James G. Blaine, jr., this country, now shamefully prolific of divorce suits, has never known a more cold blooded or heartiest desertion than that of the son of the secretary of ttate of thit republic. And, at it frequently the case, the methet of the derelict hus band it largely responsible for hit ac tiaat, if responsibility in a matte- of thit character is susceptible of division. But Mrs. Blaine is free, with the custody of her child and $100 per month perpetual alimony, and the it to be congratulated. If Blaine it now ottracised by decent people, as he deserves, a valuable lesson may be inculcated. The Asheville Banner copies from the Headersonville Times some remarks upon Tn Citizen's query at to whether in formation wat) wanted with reference to whether their mutually admired aad re cent congressman, H. 6. Ewart, sold hit queU of public docunsraU insUad of dia. tributing them amongst the people of the Ninth district. But the Banner, at the Timet, does not seem to be thirsting for information in thit particular. If it will signify a desire for light, The Citi zen will give the authority upon which the original charge was based. And it will really make good reading. Do you want it?, Andrew Carnegie has made millions upon millions of dollars since the war in the manufacture of iron and steel, thanks to the tariff put upon goods competing with his, at levied by the re publican party. In other words, the government has taxed the other classes of people in order that Mr. Carnegie might get rich, and not Carnegie oaly, but thousands of other. But few, if any, however, of the beneficiaries of this governmental paternalism, have been so generous as Mr. Carnegie in expending the millions that have come to them through the want of millions who have paid tribute to their gain. Many noble benefactions have been made by Mr. Carnegie, and he now says it is a dis grace for a mil to die the possessor of millions. The end is near with the old man, and his conscience is geting in its work. LIFE IN NORTH CAROLINA. Gohlsboro Argus: The Georgia giant, weighing over 900 pounds, passed through this city enroute tor the New berne lair. Statesville Landmark: Mr. Walter Sloan, the eighteen-year old son of Mr. Elihu Sloan, was killed by a tree falling on him near his father s residence in Sharpe's township, Alexander county. In the suburbs of Raleigh, N. C. a house collapsed, and Robins Smith, an aged negro, was caught under the timber and badly injured. His cries for help were fortunarely heard in time and a crowd of people gathered and tore away the wre -k. The state board ol education made sale of 3,000 acres of swamp land in Ty rell county to t. K. lonnson, ol Corn land, Va. The sale was made through Charles M. Stcdman, of Asheville, the board's agent, hlty cents an acre be ing the price paid. It is learned that the cause ot the sudden flight of Charles Seagle, rail way agent at Madison, was due to the tact that be had shot at a negro and thought he bad killed him. There was no woman in the case, nor was Seagle short in his accounts. Dr. J. S. Hall, of Halifax county, has a genuine madstonc which has been in his family tor perhaps a hundred years. It has been used twice witbgreat effect. Mr. W. L. Pittman, who lives in Winston, was bitten by a mad dog some years ago and the stone was applied aad drew the poison out. Also a horse was bitten and the stone drew the poison from the wound. It is about an inch long and as large as the little finger. BETTER MILK. A Good HagKeatlatn Improv ing I ha Quality. Editor The Citizen: I would like to call attention to one of Ashcville's needs. I refer to the lack of milk. The supply falls far short of meeting the demand. A good dairy would pay well. Some one should start a dairy on the plan adopted in many other cities of serving the milk in quart bottles, sealed across the top with a strip ot paper, giving the date of milking and guaranteeing it tree from adulteration and not watered. This would mean extra work but an extra price could be charged to more than cover tV cost. In writing the above I simply voice the complaint of many in valids and housekeepers, who have bees drawn to Asheville by its reputation as a health resort.

The policy of the company is conservative. The directors meet once a month to audit accounts Olid transact all necessary business. Since the formation of this stock company it hus obtained control of the only cigarette machine in America outside of the ciKrette trust, tha Is, "The American Tobacco Company." The profit in machine made cigarettes is large, varying from about fifty to one hundred per cent. The business is practically cash, as cigarettes are sold for cash or on short time. The Asheville Tobacco Works can sell all the cigarettes they make at a handsome profit Of frrs have come Irom responsible parties to take the whole output The present capacity Is 14,om n ten hours wan one mac a inc. Another machine has been ordered The cost of making 1,000 cigarettes is as follows; Medium Cigarette. Best Cigarette.

The medium grade will be sold at about $3. Go per thousand; the best at about $5 oo. Comparing the cost of mak Ing and the price per thousand it will he seen that the average profit is $2.30 per thousand For a legitimate, safe business, with tiulck returns and large profit the cigarette busipeps offers an opportunity seldom had, and ii must be kept in mind that "The Ashevil'e Tobaci. Works has had luck and display d good business judgment In securing this machine when otuer large companies were hegging for It Propositions have already been made to our company to lease the machine on a royalty. It is not necessary for an investor to speuk of Ashevilte as a suitable place to manufacture cigarettes. It is eminently well situated, being in the finest section of North Carolina for the growth of fancy uualitics of smoking tolmcco used in making cigarettes The dryness oi climate by day and coolness and moisture by night are the chief causes which favor the production of fine smoking tobacco here, and make It equal in flavor and color to the best tobacco grown anywhere. As oroof of this the tobaccos grown here have taken first pre miums at State Fairs In Raleigh, North Carolina, and Richmond, Virginia; hi so at the Vienna and Paris Kxnoaitions. The number of pounds of tobucco handled on this market is rapidly increasing, for instance, in 1KM0 there were only about 600.000 pounds sold here, while in 1891 over 6,0'0.000 pounds were sold, and now every larite manufacturer has his buyer oi this market. The sales are yearly increasing and there Is enough tobacco sold to rnn many large factories here instead of shipping it away to other factories. (A large factory in Asheville would employ a number of hands and benefit the town ) Our cigarette factory is situated in the heart of this fine tobacco region and paradise of the world for health and pleasure. The factory is a large brick building four stories high, well arranged for safety, and has all necessary appliances and machiucs for muking plug and smoking tobacco and cigar ettes. The building is heated by steam and the machine run by electrical power which is found to be the most economical. When we poetically consider the fact that our company manufactures "Asheville Air" cigarettes which throw a spell of enchantment over all man kind wherever inhaled or smoked, by rich or poor, jH-nsant or peer, philosopher or poet, young or old, weak or strong, we are compel., d to believe that ''He who doth not smoke Asheville Air hath cither known no great grief or refusetb himself the sweetest consolation n-xt to that which cometh from h- oven " Hnnugh stock will be offered at par to success fully place the cigarettes on the market.
