Matt Quay's Scheme to Strengthen
the G.. o. p.


PITTsBURG, Pa, April S0.-On the
occasion of the Americas banquet last
Saturday night. Mr.. Frank Willing
Leech, the private secretary of Senator
Quay disclosed to a number of political
friends scheme, which he said had
been mapped out by Quay, looking to
the strengthening Of the Republican
force in the house of representatives.
The plan is to have Superintendent of
the Census Porter greatly undercount
the negro voters of the South and thus
decrease the number of the congressiOn-
al districts to which that section is en-
titled. By this method 1t is expected
that the Southern states will lose eigh-
teen or twenty Democratic repre-
sentatives. In the Northwest the CEN
sus count is to be as literally computed
as possible, so that a gain Of at least
twenty Republican congressman can be
depended upon from the states of Min
nesota. Kansas, Nebraska, etc. The
legislation necessary to make the new
appointments will be rushed through
with the aid of Speaker Reed, in the
house and Senator ingalls,, who is eX-
pected to occupy the chair in the SEN
ate. According to Leech's statement,
the meeting of the Republican national
committee called for May z, is for the
purpose of officially indorsing this
scheme

Winter Wheat a Failure.

Special to the Globe
FAIBAULT. April 3O.-Winter wheat
that was sown in this county. will be
nearly a failure. The farmers have
concluded to take no chances, but re-
seed with spring wheat or oats. Seed
ing is nearly completed. There is con-
siderably more spring wheat sown than
last year, but not as much as in former
years, because the growth OF the milk
business has caused the diversion of
considerable land and hay and pastur-
age. Flax is commencing to take the
place of wheat. This season there will
probably be about 1900 acres sown.

Canadian senators Emasculate
the Railway Bill.

OTTAWA, Ont, April 30.-The rail-
way act which was referred to the rail-
way committee of the senate to allow
representatives of the leading railways
of the Western territories to give opin-
ions upon the measure, has been
amended by that committee striking out
the clause relating to fire breaks. This
clause made it compulsory for all rail
ways in prairie countries to pillow up
narrow strip of 2J0 feet on each side of
the tracks. and to burn off the grass
between this plowed strip and the
rails, to prevent sparks from locomo-
tives setting fire to the plains. Mr..
Clark appeared before the commit
tee on behalf of the Canadian Pacific,
and A. Ferguson On behalf of the Mani
toba, Northwestern & Calf line. They
represented that there was not sufficient
data to show that this proposed fire
break would be sufficiently efficacious
in preventing prairie fires. The clause
was, therefore, eliminated, Hon. Abbott
lntimating that before the next session
the government would make the neces-
sary Inquiries.

THE PEOPLE AXE IN 1T.

The attempt of the University peo-
pie to compromise in the agricul-
tural college matter is an evidence
that they have discovered the
strength of the movement to secure
to the farmers of Vermont the benefit
from the agricultural college funds
which it was originally intended
they should receive. Burlington has
as usual shown an inclination to
fight this question from a narrow
and purely local point of view and
the Free Press has exhibited its Gus
tomary provincialism by giving
prominence to every. word said in
behalf Of the present arrangement
and giving but little inkling of the
strong sentiment on the part of press
and people i'll favor of a change.
The sentiment exists nevertheless
The people are in earnest i'll demand
ing a change and they will hardly be
satisfied long with the compromise,
which does not eliminate the strong
est objections to the union of the
agricultural and classical colleges.
The issue will be decided ultimately
by the people of Vermont, rather
than by Burlington and its active
lobby of United States senators and
coT1etye professors
