The simple' announcement yester day that the American Tobacco Com pany had lost its case with the gov ernment caused momentary conster nation among dozens and scores of people here, though the retiring hour., which found tho people in pos session ol more tacts than at first restored the equilibrium and sent them to their sleep satisfied. It is conceded that no place on the .continent is so much dependent upon tobacco and its concomitants as this one. The nucleus tor the great company was Durham, and before the American Tobacco Compnn,; was known. Durham was at home in Kgypt. The famous hull had bel lowed across the ocean. Since that tune it has not been less in the pub lic eve. though it never entirely ob structed the popular vision. A million times has the question been asked that if 1 lie courts once went against the company what would be the ofioct upon Durham.

The best opinion was that there would be a re-organization, that the decision is like. Judge Long's addressed .to the Salisbury mob. The judge heard the racket at the jail when three negroes .were about to be lynched. He went over, yelled at the mob that it as a dis orderly asseemhly and unlawful. He ordered them to disperse. The lynch ing soon followed. Tiie analogy may be bud. The courts have intimated unlawfureom bines and ordered dissolution, but it would appear that having the best of intentions to make tobacco, the com pany can hardly be dispersed.
