treated with too much 'levityn by
the Democratic press. This is
perhaps true. We can't mourn

The Secret of 1t.

The secret of the ''petering Out''
of Gen. Walkers canvass is found
in the tact that through their long
and irkSome association with him
in the role of an office seeker, the
people are finding out that the
man who used to stalk among
them as veritable CollsoSsuS is
nothing but an inflated pigmy.
His OpponOnt has pricked SO many
holes in his epidermis that he has
shrunk to his proper size and
appears only as n very ordinary
old man, who is Unfortunately fond
of office, and who has no particular
convictions as to party policy.
He once appeared to us as one
of that gallant Coterie Of Confed-
crates VINO would be gathered into
the misty Valhalla with Lee and
Jackson, and Stuart and Pcgram
and Early, but he has disavowed
his illustriouS associates. and has
stripped himself of insignia of his
fellowship with the heroes of the
lost cause, He was once Bour
bon of BourbOns and is now
Radical of the Radicals. He was
once violent advocate of Free
Coinage, but recovered from this
conviction between two days.
lie was once perhaps the most
violent and Outspokcn, of all those
who made a bugbear of Lvgro
domination, and now he looks to
them as the only body of voters in
the District whose support he has
not alienated by his political
cOntortlOns.
The General and his canvass
are both in state of collapse.

That Negro Postmaster.

the Democrats with bringing
about the appointment OF the

Now why one negro in the Fifth

Democratic influence, and no

A middle-aged. sharp-featured lady

he said:
Excuse me, madam, but air you the

SEEDS AND STATISTICS.
The Distribution by the Government of
These Supplies Since 1858.

These Supplies Since 1888.
Since 1853 the United States Govern
ment has expended in the distribution
OF seeds and in the PRONUNCIATION of
statistics concerning them $3,476, 802
The cost of seeds and OF statistics on
the seed question involves an expendi-
ture now of $4,000 a year, and all eff
forts to restrain the activity of bucolic
Congressman in this respect have been
doomed, it would seem, to disappoint-
ment. In consequence, therefore. of
this Partially for entailing burdens
upon the Treasury, partly for the ex-
penses of the seeds, partly for the en-
ployment Of distributors, and partly
for the expenses of the Post Office De-
partment, which carries them free, a
united effort was made this year to
put stop to the practice through
the agency of demands made by farm
ers for other items of State aid.
There was submitted to Congress in
January a petition of some Massachu-
sets agriculturists, who in their me-
mortal declared that as Congress has
been very liberal 10 the farmers and
gardeners in the matter of free dis
tribution OF vegetable, flower, grain
and grass seed" they were encouraged
to ask that this liberality might be ex-
tended through another channel. and
that $4,000 be appropriated for the
purchase and free distribution, through
the Department Of Agriculture, of
handy small tools which every farmer
needs, but which so few possess. such
as bits and bit stocks, planes, hand
saws, sets of files. wood rasps, spoke
shaves, shingling hatchets, and the
like, all OF which could be transported
through the mails
From Nebraska there has been sub
mitted another protest against the
seed distribution, the form of which is
as follows:
Seeds are supplied to the people in
all sections of our country, the same
as sugar, tea and coffee. can see no
reason why the Government should
furnish one and not the others. Seeds
sent out by the Government go in
packages and ofttimes the farmers
finds more or less than he can use.
When farmer buys seeds he pur-
chases just what he wants; when he
receives them from the Agricultural
Department he must take such as lay
be sent. Besides l do not believe it is
the function of our Government to feed
or clothe the people,
From the same State the claim is
made that the distribution Of seeds is
not the thoroughly businesslike and
matter-of-fact affair that residents of
large cities confidently suppose it to
be. Half these Seeds" writes a cor
respondent to his Congressman. "are
utterly worthless, and the few of them
that you get that grow are just as liza
bic to be onions from Government
package labelled turnips as not, while
geraniums for beats are often met
with and clover seed Tor tomatoes"
