NO LIMIT TO THE NUMBER.

The Chatham Citizen is edited by Mr.
r. Il. Lineberry, member of the Board
of Agriculture. After the last meeting
of the Board, this paper stated that John
II. Smith and J. c. l.. Harris had been
authorized to employ additional fertilizer
inspectors, and there was no limit to the
number. The Citizen says that the
News and Observer was incorrect in
making the statement.
Let us see about that. After reading
the Citizen, Il note was addressed to the
Agricultural Department requesting II
copy of the resolution authorizing the
appointment of additional inspectors.
We were referred to Mr.. ). c. l.. Har-
ris. chairman of the executive commit
tee and upon being asked as to the mat
ter Mr.. Harris said:
"A resolution at the June meet
ing authorized the appointment of
three fertilizer inspectors at $50 per
month and expenses. At the July
meeting the Commissioner and chair
man of the executive committee
(John II. Smith and j. G.. l.. lIar-
risl were authorized to appoint
SUCH ADDITIONAL INSPEC-
TORS AT THE SAME PAY AS
IN THEIR JUDGMENT NIGHT
BE NECESSARY, sucn appoint
ments to be temporary, subject to
be revoked by the meeting at any
time
Now if anybody has printed any in
correct statement, it is not the News
and Observer. OF course Harris and
Smith will claim that they will only
appoint men when necessary. but never
thelcss the fact remains that John X.
Smith and ]. G. l.. Harris can appoint
such additional inspectors as III their
Judgment might be necessary" The bal
ance of the resolution is Il nullity be-
cause the Board does not meet again
until the first day of December, and
cannot therefore revoke, if so disposed.
the appointment of the horde of
political agents, called fertilizer III
spectors, which Smith and Harris
will put in the field. Already
several have been appointed, and more
will be sent out as uolton and Skinner
and the other political managers may
need inspecting done in the political ma
nure piles scattered throughout the
State.
Practically no fertilizer is being bought
at this season of the year, and there
isn't farmer in the State who believes
it necessary to increase the inspectors in
the fall months. Next spring, when the
farmers are buying guano, it might be
necessary to increase the number of in
spcctors, and the December meeting
would have been the proper time to au
thorize their employment
The whole thing is a gigantic scheme
to use the money of the State to pay
canvassers to 90 about the State doing
political work to keep the present gang
in office, and that is all there is in it.

REV. MR.. NICHOLS FOUND.
He Was at the Union Station Bound for
Boston.


Rev. George E. Nichols, who disappeared
from Saco Sunday just before his first
sermon as pastor of the Main street Bap-
fist church, was discovered by 4. G. Tux
bury, a member of the church, in the
Union station, i'll this city, at O'Clock
yesterday morning. The Pullman train
for Boston was about to start
He at first declined to return to Saco
with Mr. Tuxbury, but finally agreed to
go aboard the train so as TO get warm.
The train started with him and he was
taken to Saco, and with assistance was
taken to the home of Mr.. Tuxbury. DR..
Haley, who was summoned says 1t was a
case of temporary mental arrangement
from oyerwork. Yesterday, Mr.. Nichols
after a good rest, felt quite restored.
A despatch to the PRESS from Saco,
received last night said that at q
O'Clock, when DR.. Haley made a second
call on Rev. Mr.. Nichols he found the
patient in apparently full possession OF
his faculties, but greatly depressed by his
realization of what he did on Sunday.
He has been in bed ever since his return
to Mr.. Tuxbury's home. Following the
advice of the attending physician, no,
body except the members of the Tuxbury
family was allowed TO see him.
Mr.. Nichols says he was not unconscious
of what he was doing when he was on
his way to Portland. When he came
down stairs at the TuxburyS house, Sun.
day morning he had not the Iemotest
idea of leaving town. He suddenly be-
came possessed of an uncomfortable i'm
pulse to leave the house, and go on and
on-he knew not where or why. So he
kent ON till he had covered the 5 miles
to Portland. On his arrival here he real
lied that he ought to telegraph to his
wife and to the clerk of the Saco church,
and he found his way to the telegraph
Office and sent the two kilograms.
DR.. Haley says it is clearly case OF
nervous exhaustion, and he sees no rea-
son why, after little rest.and good nurs-
ing, the pastor will not fully recover his
health. There is no evidence of organic
disease, and no trace of fever, which was
feared this morning.
/ OQ6 OIL Jus CnQIGu OlAsCCs boAA1 . eNs--S>-
last evening what would be done in ref
erence to filing the passionate, repllen
that Mr.. Nichols had accepted the unanl-
o:nus call and is in reality pastor OF the
church, though he has not begun his
labors. The church people, realizing that
his failure to appear in the pulpit last
Sunday was due to illness, have only the
most kindly and sympathetic feeling for
him. If he chooses to remain in Saeo
and take up the duties of the passionate,
as it is believed he will, no voice will be
raised against him.
Rev. Mr.. Nichols is a native of Penn.
sylvania, graduate of auckland uni
versity and Yale Theological school, and
has held successful pastorates at Stoning-
ton, CT Melrose, Mass, and New Haven.
He has studied abroad, and when called
to the Saco passionate was taking post.
! graduate course at Yale. He has wife
and three children, the Oldest son stu
