.mareUe Smoking.
The Supreme Court of Tennessee
says: "We think cigarettes are not
legitimate articles of commerce, be
cause they are wholly noxious and
deleterious to health. Their use is
always harmful, never beneficial. They
possess no virtue but are inherently bad,
and bad only. They find no true com
mendation or merit or usefulness in any
sphere. On the contrary, they are
widely condemned as pernicious alto
gether. Beyond question their every
tendency is toward the impairment of
physical health and mental vigor.
Austin vs. State, 101 Tenn., 562.
That is one of the strongest and most
remarkable judicial opinions ever road.
It was given in a decision sustaining a
law forbidding the sale or giving away
of cigarettes or cigarette paper.
Ihe cigarette habit is a very easy
one not to acquire, and it is rather diffi
cult to give a reason why one should
commence it.
Justice Crane, of New York City,
says: "Ninety-nmo out of one hundred
boys between the ages of ten and sev-
enteen years who come before me
charged with crime, have their fingers
disfigured' by the yellow cigaretto
stains. I . am not a crank oh the sub-
iect. I do not care to pose a3 a reform-
cr, but it is my opinion that cigarettes
do more than liquor to ruin boys. My
observation in the police court is that
the boy who smokes cigarettes follows
with beer and liquors. Third, craps
and gambling. Fourth, horse racing
gambling on a bigger scale than larceny.
Sixth, state's prison."
Dr. Frank W. Gunsaulus says: "I do
not believe there is an agency more
destructive of soul, mind and body, or
more subversive of good morals than

already plain beyond the necessity of
proof, any man in fifteen minutes
might substantiate it for himself by
asking questions on the streets. There
were plenty of Roosevelt enthusiasts
when he stepped into the Presidency.
Then grief for McKinley reacted to
some extent in the form of a consider
able sentiment for the new President.
The average man participated in it and
the sentiment was laudable. Now it
has died out of the public altogether,
and a questioner in a crowd will have
to canvass for some time to find a
genuine pro-Roosevelt expression. He
will hear a volume of adverse criticism.
The explanation of the changed mind
toward Mr. Roosevelt is simple. The
wise skepticism of a practical people
came to their rescue. Mr. Roosevelt's .
lictitious self lost its attractiveness
and his magnified propensity tor display
naturally raised an interrogation as to
the reality. The American gaze pene-
trated his heroic guise, his imposing
aspect as the moral censor and his
superficial and strenuous statesman-

narrow egotism and blind impetuosity
of the real Mr. Roosevelt,
Not the least of the actual qualities

What'rtthu Matter.
Tacoma Lumberman.
In keeping with the general trend of
trade, the demand for timber land is
light. A few.(trausfers are made, but
the edge is oft the market. t
The hard times of the
last decade
came on gradually, but the tightening
up ot the past lew montns nas Deen

hauscr Timber Company decided to
build a large sawmil at 3ome point on
the Columbia river, now that is aban-
donod. The Company even contem-
plate a heavy reduction in their log

Wcyerhauser, recently stated that it
would be better to allow the burnt tim-

The Wall Street Journal, whose edi

Sago, who makes this confession, or
rather, profession of faith, is surely
entitled to the pity of the youngest of
fice boy who gets a week off once a
year on full pay. That a man should
have arrived at eighty-three years and
at that age should say tho things that
Mr. Sago has said, is about ' tho most
lamentable confession of failure that he
could make. Tho magnitude of the
failure can only be described in a nega
tive way. Think of eigthy-three years
of business unrelieved by a day of
pleasure! Think of eighty-three years
spent in tho pursuit or money for that
is what business is with never n day
spent on a hobby, that is, spent on
something from which one makes no

Wants a Hum me President.
From Dumb Animals.
A friend complains that we some
times disagreeably mention some of the
past opinions and acts of the President
of the United States. The fact is we
are trying to educate him humanely
against wars against foot-ball fights
against shooting animals that have
never done him harm, simply for the
fun of wounding and killing them
against teaching the youth of our
country to imitate bull-dogs, prize
fighters and savages. We want them
to be more like Abraham Lincoln,
whose great heart went out to every
harmless creature like Grant, who
would not ''attend a horse race like
Sherman, who declared that "war was
hell" like General Miles, whojhas re
cently told his countrymen how im
mensely they could gain by appropriat
ing the cost of defending the Philippine
Islands to the improvement Of our own
country.
We are trying to humanely educate
our President, and if we succeed it may
save our nation tens (and perhaps
hundreds) of thousands of human and
animal lives and hundreds of millions of
dollars.
