An old tobacco grower and a-ker throws
ett Ihese timely suggestions te tobacco farm
ers, overyeno of which is worthy careful
consideration :
"Don't cut oil your tobacco before it Is ripe ;
Isstter run the risk or hall than cut your crop
green. Djii't handle It a If it was hay, but
hacdle it tenderly se as net te break tbe
leaves. Don't hang It tee close 011 the poles,
but hang the sUlka lar enough apart te allow
the air a free circulation auieutheiu. Don't
bang any part of your crop en the upper tlera
of your abed, close up te the roer ; If you
de you will have whlle vein, and ether
damage. A greuud lliajr Is better than a
wooden 0110 ler a tobacco abed, hut whether
ground or wishI the llixir should be kept
damp whlle the tobacco Is curing, keep the
shodailOHed during Iho day se'lally sun
shiny days and open al night, se that the
damp air may rmeale the tobacco. Fellow
these directions and the crop el 't7 will come
from thu poles lu better condition than any
that have preceded IL"

Lecal dealers aud grewers are lu geed
humor te-day ever the Information which
comes from Washington that Assistant Sec
retary of tlie Treasury Maynard has made a
ruling in the matter el the larlll 011 Sumatra
ImporUllens lu accord with the position as
sumed by the commllteo representing the
growers who recently appeared before him.
When Mesrs llensul, Dltlenderller and
Ithislea were Isttore tbe secretary, with the
representatives of ether localities aud Inter
ests, they were Informed that substantially
the sauie question as they presented was in in
velv ed In a lest case that came te the depart
ment from a decision of thu collector at Kl
Pase, Texas, assessing duty al the rate el
seveuty-tlvocents per jxiund en certain leaf
tobacco Imported Irem Mexico, of which
fi'i out til every 100 leaves were of
the requisite si9 and lineal fur use
at wrapjHjrs, and ltm of which leaves
weightd less than a pound. The de
termination of thu eluts involved tiejsjud
principally upon llm unit tube adopted in
ascertaining whetht r s. per cent, el the com
modity is el the AtUht and quality which
renders It Itablii 1 1 the rate of duty Im
Itjsetl. In hit decision, Judu Maynard na:
The subject of Iho tax it " leaf tobacco," net
" bales," or " hands," or " packages" of leaf
tobacco, and the liability te duty cau net he
made te depuiid upon thu Inriiief the iiackage
in which tuelmporuUtien Is made. I Ivery
leal, Ki per tent, of which is suitable (or wrap
pers, and the weight ut wIiIlIi is such that
mero than KM) leaves would be re
quired te weigh a pound, Is declared
te he rellablu te a high rate el duty. The law
has reference te the leaf tobacco lu the con
dition when imxjrted aud net lu the llnal
results which may bu obtained from Its man
ufacture Inte dgus. It Is dealing with a
kind well known le the tradu at suitable ter
wrappers, that It, lit te Is) set apart ter use
for euch purpose, aud It K per cent, of tbe
leaf properly comes within that designation
aud Is of the requisite weight, the conditions
of the law are met and the high rate of duty
should be Imposed. It has been suggested
that it would be dlllicult, if net impractica
ble, for the appraiser le adept the leaf as a
unit, but it is net believed that such an eh
joctlen reals upeu tunable grounds.
Judge Maynard reviews the present
method of determining the classification of
leaf tobacco. 11 u says: "It is the practice
te regard the hand or package as the unit,
aud 111 case s per cent, of il is net found te
hoof light weight and suitable ler wrappers
thou te regard tbe whole iniiurtalleu as duti
able at 35 j per puu ml. 1 think such a prac
tice is net lu atcoidauce Willi the Intent of
the law ami should be discontinued. It lel
low s thut In the case under consideration f'i
per cent-or tbe inveke was dutiable at ru
per pound and II porceuL at.'.'ioper pound."
It will be remembered that alter Congress
passed theantl Sumatra law, intended te Ux
the iuisirtatieu of this class of tobacco wrap
iers 75 cent pir pound, the Inqiorters evaded
It by packing Hi or cent or mero of worth
less tillers with it, te make lets than Ni per
cent, et Iho whole package "wrappers" aud
then make the bale liable only le the lower
rate of duty. As a result less than otie half of
ene per cent, of tlie total iuiH)rUtieus of
Sumatra tobacco during the ptst year paid
tlie 3.1 per cunt duty ; though It is notorious,
at argued hy Mr. lleusel before Secretary
Maynard, that no Sumatra tobacco Is really
Isnight lieie for tillers, the article being ut
most worthless for that purixjse. The latck
ng et it ill the bales, te evude thu tarltl 011 the
butler class el goods, ought new te he aband
oned or suppressej by the new treasury rul
ing ; aud whatever iuiertaliuus there will be
el Sumatra will likely he cf straight clean
goods paying the 7.'i tent duly.
The Nw urk Market,
from the II. s. I'obacte Jeurnui.
The enormous rise in Western aud South Seuth
ern tobaccos within the past few weeks, and
especially durlug the last threo days, having
lu train a golden harvest for the prudent aud
calculating ones, has net tailed te sllllen the
seed lear market considerably and open up
the very best or prospects for the balance of
the year. Tbe sudden rise in tueee he called
cutting" tobacco is due te Iho disinclina
tions et growers le plant tobaccos at low
prices. They stepped for a season and up
went the market.
Hew dillerent are the growers or seed leal
tobacco I Fer years aud years their cre
have hardly paid them expenses ; neverthe
less year alter year they lucrease their acre
age aud raise the leal at all haards. Why
don't they curUll tur a season ? If tbey were
te plant ball a crop euly next year, tbe price
eiaeeuieai weuiu ueuuie. tuaieau 01 mis,
tbey dream of rlebea If a high duty could be
placed en Sumatra ; they waste their lime
aud money in their attempts, and use tbe
balance of tbeir time and money te raise
mere tobacco than Is wanted ; tbey are rais
ing tbe beat they can, that la certain ; tbe
best, tbeugb, la no competitor te Sumatra,
and te keep It out by a blgb rate of duty
ought te be an exploded felly by this time.
Nevertheless, things leek exceedingly
bright new, and there exists no doubt what
ever tbat at any moment prices of seed leaf

The elections for sUte and legislative oUl eUl
cers of Kentucky passed or qulellyen Monday.
The weather was clear and het and the vote
does net seem te have lawn large. Owing te
tbe length el the ticket and local contests, re
turns are as yet meagre.
The Laber and Prohibition vote are smaller
than was anticipated. In LnulavlUe the
Democratic majority Is about J,000, a Demo
cratic gain of nearly 2,000 ever the last elec
tion. Tbe city elects a solid Democratic
ticket and defeats local option by a heavy
majority. The county and city give a Dem
ocratic majority or 3,000.
Meagre returns Irem the sUte iudtcate a
Republican gain, but the following Deme
cratle ticket's estimated majority will iw from
VLr,')0 te 35 000 votes: tinvernnr, Simen
Hillvar Huckuer; lieutenant governor, (1.

Hardin; supeilntendent of publle Instruc

(lenersl Huckuer annears te have run
ahead el bis ticket, and the Democratic losses
are mainly in local contests. I,exlngten gave

The vote for holding a constitutional con
