opposition papers do not have too much to

prominence of his position, and will be glad

tured and well-meaning man, doubtless, but
to hear him declaring In pompous tones his

The NatioHdl Lire Stock Journal, the leading
live stock paper of the country, published at
Chicago, in speaking of the qualifications that
ought TO be possessed by one holding this inn
portant position, has the following to say In
relation TO the new uppointcc:
In the selection of Col. Norman j. Colman a
commissioner has been secured who has more
qualifications Of nina, and training, and cN-
pcriencc than has graccd the Office for many
presidential terms. For years his lite-wOrk as
the editor ana publisher of nn influential agri-
cultural journal has made him familiar with
all departments Of farming, and every grade
and variety of live stock. Moreover, this pD.
sition has brought him into personal contact
with the leading farmers and breeders of live
stock throughout the United States. The In
tucncc that Col. COlnnn cXerts Is evidenced
by the frequency with which he Is called upon
TO deliver addresses at agricultural fairs mud
colleges, and the universally with which these
addresses are copied in agricultural journals US
the liic.thoughts OF miud devoted to these
subjects. Moreover, he has presided with
ability over many important conventions re-
hitting TO the lately introduced farm industries,
and all his theoretical or literary knowledge
OF the farming interests Of the country hls
been supplemented by his actual experiences on
his own farm in the greatest of the southwest.

lie Is personally conversant with the great
corn. wheat, rye, ana barlcy-growing sections
of the country, and he has visited many Of the
stock farms in the rich valleys between the
Green Mountains of Vermont and the Golden
Gate OF the icwcled daughter of the Pacific.
This training and observation, and enlarged
experience, directed by his well-linown ex.
ecutive ability and recognized capacity as u
leader, cmincntly qualify him for the position
Of commissioner of agriculture. Furthermore,
he has no invOrite theories, no pet hobbies that
he fosters, to the infringement OF impartial com.
prehension and the impairment of his useful
ness Neither in mind nor in feeling Is he
tainted with scctionalism, but he is broad,

EDITOR NATIONAL REPUBLICAN: You stated
very fairly my claim for appointment as city
postmaster. l invented and introduced,
through an net Of Congress procured
by me during two sessions, the
selfsealing stamped newspaper wrappers,
and even then literally forced them upon the
Postofice Department after at least q dozen
reflections They have been on sale over
postage last year. While n profit to all large
city newspapers, by increasing their sales to
read and then inclose to relatives aud friends
In these convenient wrappers they are also n
profit to the Postoilicc Department. by increas
ing the amount of newspapers md DINER
printed matter sent by mail in this convenient
means of inclosng out of these wrappers, in
twenty-four years, the department has made
enough to build at least three goOd-slzod city
postofces, so wisely urged by THE REPUBLICAN.
Having contributed the money, / will aid, as /
did last winter, In the passage OF n bill for a
building in the most convenient and economic
locality, at the coming session of Congress.
