In hts annual report the secretary Of
agriculture presents graphic picture
OF the folly of the existing system of
gratuitous seed distribution. Last year
enough seeds We're distributed free
among the farmers of the country to
plant strip of land a rod wide and
once and a half as long as the distance
around the globe. This year it is ex.
pected that, under compulsion Of con-
gress, a total double this amount will
be sent out. AS Mr. Morton says, this
expenditure of the peoples money-it
reached nearly $4,000 in the year just
past--is a. gratuity of the whole people
to favored few.

REDUCED BERTH T

Sleeping a accommodations may be
cheaper. A rumor is In circulation from
Warrington. that the Pullman COM
pany Is contemplating a reduction in
its rates. Whether there be any foun-
dation 10 1t can not be learned at the
general offices of the company in Chi
cago. However, there has been a gen.
eral demand for a reduction in the up
per berth rate, for many months, and
it is more than probable enough pres
sure has been brought to bear on the
Pullman company to cause the move.
Pullman rates are about the only
charges which have not had to be re-
duced during these hard times, and 1t
is thought 1t is about time they should
be knitted by the management.
According to eastern dispatches. the
parlor car service is to b affected first.
Railroad managers, 1t is said, have final
ly convinced Mr.. Pullman that his rates
are to a large extent prohibitive, and
the reductions will probably amount to
fully 80 per cent. Following this change
Pullman fares will be cut on the Balti-
more and Ohio, the Hooking Valley and
the Ohio Central. Some Of the south>
ern men are urging that reductions be
made In their territory also.

Y AS A LAWYER.
An Incident Illustrating the Extent
OF His Legal knowledge.

By the way you hear every little once
in awhile of something funny in con-
nection with Mr.. Bryan's newspaper
career. Here is an ode thing in which
toJh his editorial judgment and his
legal acumen were at issue. Mr.. Hitch
cock, who was proprietor of the World
Herald, in the campaign of 1894 con-
tracted with the republican states CEN
trail committee to give tina; body the
use OF two columns OF space on his edi-
torial page, good advc. Using rates be-
ing charged. A caption announced
that This space is engaged by the re,
publican state central committee and
Mr.. Hitchcock thought that ought to
make it clear to all that the matter
there printed was paid advertising. The
readers. especially n" democrats, re-
fused to so understand it, however, and
a great cry of rage Went up. Mr.. Bry-
an. who held the Office of editor-in,
chief, was awav at the time and he
was sent for in a hurry. Ec returned
and insisted that the contract be re-
vcked. and when the other parties re-
fused to cancel the agreement he or
dered. the matter supplied to be with
held, whereupon an injunction suit was
Instituted by the central committee.
The contract provided for insertion of
matter for a term of ten days, includ-
ing two Sundays and when the re-
publicans asked ex-J idge H. J. Davis,
to take the cas- he told them they were
sure 20 lose, as a contract for Sunday
work was illegal. In desperation, how
ever, they directed him to &C into court,
and try to enjoin the breaking of the
contract by the World Herald people.
He did so, and by scrGe phenomenal
oversight, although the ether side was
represented by half n dozen attorneys,
including Mr.. Bryan. nobody but Davis
thought Of that Sunday clause and he,
very naturally, instead of mentioing it,
lay back and held his breath until the
court had decided against Mr.. Bryan.

MAY GIVE UP PULLMAN CARS.


Pullman sleeping cars, it is under
stood from a reliable source, are to be
itabooed by the new management of the
Northern Pacific system, and that COM
pany may cease ito operate them within
the next few weeks. The change is an
important one, and If made. means that
the Northern Pacific intends either
building its own sleeping and parlor
car equipment or running Wagner
coaches. The contract between the
railroad company and Pullman's Pal
ace Car company. which was made 10
years ago, will terminate in October.
Under 1t the road Is now operating
about so Pullman cars. IN much OF this
rolling stock the Northern Pacific owns
a half interest, and 1t Is stated by a
high official Of the road that it will
offer the Pullban people two PROPOSE
'tions. either to sell the cars outright
or to buy the Latter company's share
therein.
In case the former proposition Is
agreed TO the Northern Pacific will, it
is believed, construct sleeping cars Of
Its own. This will mean the outlay of a
large sum Of money, but II reports are
correct the road stands ready to meet
the expense. Positive statements are
made that the contract with the Pull
man company will not be renewed, and
that Wagner cars are to supplant them,
in EAST the road does not provide its
own equipment.

THE RECORD.
Our Team Wins Eight Out Of Fourteen Hom'
Games.

Well, the team has completed its sec
ond home series, and the results have
been by no means discouraging. The
team has played IA games on the home
grounds, winning eight of them. II
has broken even with Pawtuclset, New
Bedford, Lewiston and Bangor. 1t won
from Portland, and lost both to Fall
River. All of the games. with the eX-
ception of the first Lewiston game
have been well contested. The people
here have had the opportunity of see
ing some beautiful exhibitions of the
national game and have not been slow
il showing their appreciation of them
If the boys can win half of their
games away they would be doing all
that could possibly be expected OF
them. If they do more than that, they
will come several notchcs higher in the
race.
The team left last night. for the
Western end of the circuit 1t will
open up, this afternoon. at New Bed
ford. Wednesday and Thursday it is
at Fall River. Friday and Saturday
and Sunday it is at Pawtucket. July
10 and II it is at Brockton, returning
from there il will open up again on
the home grounds, July Is, with the
Pawtuckets. With Pickett back in the
game again, and Kilfcddcr in the right
field. the team should be stronger than
ever before, this season. We have won
only two less games than the New
Bedford team that is now in fourth
place. and very little winning streak
would put us well up in the race. The
best wishes of the lovers of the game
in the Kennebcc valley attend the
team on the trip, and all will hope for
good showing.

a batting streak and pounded his de-

utter inability of the Augustus to
