The New Commissioner.

The new commission of agricn ture, Gen.
William G. LIE Due, of Minnesota, proves
to be an original Ohio man, and, like the
president, graduate of Kenyon college, who
emigrated TO Minnesota in 1850, served
bonorably in the war, and is evidently a
man selected by Mr.. Hayes from personal
belief in his fitness. BE is credited, says
the Springfield Republican,, by those who
know him with a practical knowledge of
agriculture, and the only thing against him
is an alleged dscredilable connection of
some sort with the construction company of

But aside from the impli criticism on

in the end. The presidents policy com
mends itself to the enlightened sentiment
of the coultry. The Office holders ant
