Cigarette and Tobacco News:BLAGG : Giving Credit Where Credit Is DueRead Complete Article: Morning News of NW Arkansas, 2009-02-13 Author: Brenda Blagg THE MORNING NEWS
Review: State senators on Thursday followed the House of Representatives' lead to approve a hefty tobacco tax increase in Arkansas.
The vote effectively guarantees major improvements to the delivery of health-related services to Arkansans. But don't declare the work done yet. There must be enabling legislation enacted for the new programs and budget bills passed to direct the new revenue where promised.
What the Senate approved on Thursday is a 56-cents-a-pack hike on cigarettes, along with a change in the tax on smokeless tobacco, that Gov. Mike Beebe proposed to fund a statewide trauma system and other health needs, including the operation in Fayetteville of a satellite campus of the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.
The "no" votes came from Sens. Bill Pritchard, Elkins, and Ruth Whitaker, Cedarville; and Reps. Duncan Baird, Lowell; Jonathan Barnett, Siloam Springs; Les Carnine, Rogers; Debra Hobbs, Rogers; Donna Hutchinson, Bella Vista; Bryan King, Green Forest; Mark Martin, Prairie Grove.; Mary Lou Slinkard, Gravette; and Jon Woods, Springdale -- every one of them a Republican.
Each may have had some additional reason to be against the tobacco tax, but each was also heavily pressured by tobacco interests and the Republican Party to vote against it.

Tobacco History: Cigarettes and Literature | The Social History of Smoking
George Latimer Apperson
Chapter 3: The druggist-tobacconists were well stocked with abundance of pipes—those known as Winchester pipes were highly popular—with maple blocks for cutting or shredding the tobacco upon, juniper wood charcoal fires, and silver tongs with which the hot charcoal could be lifted to light the customer's pipe. The maple block was in constant use in those days, when the many present forms of prepared tobacco and varied mixtures were unknown. In Middleton and Dekker's "Roaring Girl," 1611, the "mincing and shredding of tobacco" is mentioned; and in the same play, by the way, we are told that "a pipe of rich smoak" was sold for sixpence.
Read More | The Social History of SmokingGeorge Latimer AppersonChapter 11:Sidgwick's praise of tobacco, classically draped in Greek verse, occasionally of the macaronic order, is delightful. He hails the pipe as the work of Pan, and the divine smoke as the best and most fragrant of gifts-healer of sorrow, companion in joy, rest for the toilers, drink for the thirsty, warmth for the cold, coolness in the heat, and a cheap feast for those who waste away through hunger. How is it, he says, that through so many ages men, who have need of thee, have not seen thy nature? Often, he continues-the verses may be roughly translated-often, when I am in Alpine solitudes, tied in a chain to a few companions, clinging to the rope, while barbarians lead the way, carrying in my hands an ice-axe and breathless crawling up the snow-covered plain-then, when groaning I reach the summit (either pulled up or on foot), how have I rested, on my back on the rocks, charming my soul with thy divine clouds! He goes on in burlesque strain to speak of the joys of tobacco when he lies in idleness by the streams in breathless summer, comforted by a bath just taken, or when in the middle of the night he is worn out by revising endless exercises, underlining the mistakes in red and allotting marks, or weighed down by the wise men of old-Thucydides, Sophocles, Euripides, the ideas of Plato, wiles of Pindar, fearfully corrupt strophe of chorus, wondrous guesses of Teutons and fancies of philologists, when men swoon in the inexplicable wanderings of the endless examination of Homer, when the brain reels among such toil-then he hails the pipe, help of mortals, and hastens to kindle sacrifices at its altars and rejoices as he tastes its smoke. Let some one, he exclaims, bring Bryant and May's fire, which strikes a light only if rubbed on the box-
