If all the trees in all the woods were men,
And each and every blade of grass pen;
Ifevery leaf on every shrub and tree
Turned to a sheet of foolscap. every sea
Were changed to ink, and all earth's living
tribes
Had nothing else to do but act as scribes,
And for ten Thousand ages, day and night,
The human race should write, and write, and
write,
Till all the pens and paper were used up,
And each great inkstand was an empty cup.
Still would the scribblers cluster round its
brink
Call for more pens, more paper, aud more ink.

Going for the Mail.

For years the children of Col Mott,
of Westbury, Conn, were in the habit
of harnessing the family horse and
driving to the post office for the daily
mail. Last fall the old horse, with
others, was turned out to pasture, but
it seems that he remembered his duty.
About the usual time of the day he es-
capped from the lot and trotted to the
post Office, where he was observed to
wait patiently. The postmaster sur
missed the animals mission, and he Sc
lected Mr.. Motifs mail, tied it rp in a
package, and adjusted it to the horses
head The mail arrived at it's destira-
ton safely. The animal ever since
has appeared daily at the regular hour
at the post Office for lis masters mail.

PURSUING the Wrong POLICY.

Commissioner t. c. Moore, Of the Chicago
East-bound pool is in peck of trouble. Like
Commissioner Doherty, of the indianapolis East
bound pool, he has undertaken to prevent the
railroad reporters securing his tonnage state
meuts, which are Of interest to the public, SO
much do these statements show the pulse Of
business Mr.. Moore called the agents of the
roads together for the the purpose of discussing
the inability TO keep the weekly tonnage state
ments from appearing in the newspapers. The
discussion was exceedingly interesting, and
much bad blood was engendered, which promises
to seriously impair the harmonious working of
the committee. In commenting on the meeting
the Chicago Times says: sit is a matter of sin
eere regret that anything of such character
should have occurred at a time when all was
peace and prosperity within the trunk-lille pool
Several members of the committee were in favor
of terminating at once the undignified actions
with which the attempt to suppress the
publication OF the tonnage statement had been
attended, by again issuing it to the papers from
the joint agents Office Pool commissioners GER
tainly are not posted as to the qualifications of
live newspaper reporter, or theywOuld know chat
the very agents they arraign would be the last
persons reporter would go to for such informa-
ton, and it is not to be wondered at that Chiea
go as well as indianapolis agents are indignant
when so dishonorable charge is made against
them. The best thing fer Commissioners Moore
D0herty and Richardson to do is to leave their
statements open to the inspection of newspaper
reporters and request such items as they did not
wish made public withheld, and any honorable
reporter would carry out their wishes.

No one, said leading merchant yesterday,
''who has investigated the cost of transportation
quite thoroughly, will for moment argue that
rates too high if the tariff is strictly adhered
to-the trouble arises from discrimination. The
difficult question is, Has common carrier a
right to discriminate in its charges for the same
service rendered between the shipper who for
wards one carload of coal, grain, or -four, and
the shipper who at the same time forwards a
thousand carloadsP 1t is insisted upon the part
of the railroad companies that the larger shin
per is entitled to concessions on account of the
bulk of his business. They go further, and say
that such encouragement to capital is necessary
Tor the development of costly undertakings. 1t
,nust be admitted that there is weight and force
IN this view. Yet it must be admitted that in
the past Indianapolis in its business interests
has suffered from just this discrimination. Five
years ago there We're some forty grain dealers
shipping from indianapolis; now the number is
reduced to dozen. all the little shippers having
been frozen out because the larger shippers were
favored in rates.

The full text of the letters of acceptance
of Mr.. Blaine and Gen. Logan is given in
our columns to-day. The most obvious thing
to be said about Mr.. Blaine's letter is that it
gives satisfaction to everybody except the
Democrats and Independents. To Repubn-
cans it reads like a candid, intelligent and
comprehensive discussion of the principles
which underlie our true policy as q nation.
The main portion of the letter is devoted to
the tariff question, and we believe it to be
true that so strong and conclusive a state
ment of the issues involved, from the stand
point of protection, has never been made as
Mr.. Blaine here embodies. He deals not in
arguments but in solid facts and quotes I'M
Hnswerable statistics to show how our nation
al wealth has multiplied, how our foreign
commerce has increased, how our farming
interests have grown and prospered, and how
our mechanics and laborers have been bene-
fitted by the system of protection to home in
dustries established and maintained by the
Republican party.
Mr.. Blaine's explicit statement of what he
believes to be the true foreign policy to be
observed by this country is especially unsat-
isfaetory to those persons who are bound TO
regard him as a dangerous man and 10 see no
good in him. ITO cultivate friendly rela-

Gen. Grou, for Conrres..

The outcome of the Second district con-
vention on Wednesday, in the nomination of
Gen. W. W. Grout of Barton for Congress,
was what the most careful observers have
foreseen to be probable for some time past
Gen. Circuit had made very thorough can
vass of the district, he had the three upper
counties nearly solid in his support there
was a strong feeling among his friends that a
second term belonged to him as matter of
right, and the plea Of geographical location
was all in his favor. These facts with due
regard for the good qualities as a man and a
legislator which his record has shown him to
possess, were the considerations which
brought about his nomination.
For man who entered late into the can
vass, Hon. VIM. p. Dillingham; of Waterbury
showed degree of strength, steadily main
tanned, which was in the highest degree com
plimentary TO him. With those delegates and
other residents of Windham county who did
not support Col. Hookers candidacy it is
undoubtedly true that Mr.. Dillingham; was the
first choice, for the reason that he was believ-
ed to possess in high degree those qualities
out of which an able and useful Congressman
might be made. 1t is understood that from
10 to 20 Windham county votes we're steadily
given to him in the convention. Col. Hook
er's strength was made up of the balance Of
the delegation from this county, with a fol-
lowing from Windsor county, varying in num-
bers on the several ballots, and indicated in
the record of ballots elsewhere printed. Col.
Hooker's friends were cordial and enthusiastic
in his support, and it seems to be true that
each of the several contestants came out of
the convention with the respect and good will
of both friends and opponents.
Gen. William W. Grout, who will be the
next representative in Congress from the Sec
ond district, was born in 1886, and has been
from childhood resident of Orleans county.
He was admitted TO the bar in 1857, did his
state and country good service as a Union
soldier, served four terms in the lower branch
of the state legislature and one term in the
senate, and four years ago was elected mem
Der of the 47th Congress from the old Third
Vermont district, During his term of service
in Congress he showed himself o working
member and a diligent student of national
affairs. As q member of the committee on
territories he was delegated to make up the
committees report on the proposed division
of the territory of Dakota, and his speeches
on the distribution of the Geneva award and
on the bill to make tho bureau of agriculture
department of the government were con
ceded by all to show genuine grasp of pub
lie affairs In the 10th Congress Gen, Grout
will prove himself no less q faithful and pains
taking member and ha deserves and will re-
ceive the cordial support of the Republicans
! of his district
