COLBURNISCONVINCED

Learns by Sad Experience

With Tobacco Trust

Good Price for Tobacco Dumped

at Owensboro But Gets

Short Weight

Mr Charlie Colburn who lives eastof Hartford and who has heretoforebeen a faithful member of the Societyof Equity yielded to the seductiveinfluences of the Tobacco Trust andone day last week hauled a thousandpound load of tobacco to Owensboroand sold It at 9 8 and 2 thinkingbo had been given a splendid priceand probably more than he would getIn the pool However when his tobac ¬

co was weighed it fell off four hun¬

dred pounds on the one load re ¬

ducing amount received to such anextent that it brought him about 4 4

and 1 something near tho old pricepaid by the Trust before the poolwas originated Mr Colburn was inthis office one day this week and re-

quested¬

that we give publicity to thistransaction together with his ac ¬

knowledgement of his mistake and apromise to stand by the AmericanSociety of Equity In tho future Touse Mr Colburns own words If Iever dump another load of tobacco itwill be in the river He says thatho is hereafter solid for Equity if hecan be forgiven and will stand bythe organization until death
