The Next Distribution of Seeds
by the Agricultural De-
partment.
From the Washington Star

The contract for the distribution of agri-
cultural department seeds for the coming
fiscal year will be let at once by Secretary
Wilson He stated today that he has re.
solved to require that the packing and dis.
tribution be done in this city.
1t is estimated by the secretary that the
contractor will spend not less that $500 per
week during the period of delivery, which,
as in the case of the contract now being
carried out here, will cover probably three
or four months.
1t has been customary not to make the
contracts for this distribution until the
late autumn, but Secretary Wilson believes
change will be valuable in more ways than
one.
The chief advantage accruing from the
early letting Of the contract will be that
the contractor will be able to watch the
growth of the seeds by the men with whom
he contracts Another will be that there
will be no delay in beginning the work in
the proper season through inability to get
the seeds in the market.
The appropriation for the next year ia
$4,000 for the congressional distribution,
US " ~ CHileu, anu pZV,UUU IOE Jlle purchase
and distribution of foreign seeds. Not all
of the first sum is spent in carrying out
the contract for packing and distributing,
as the law authorizes the secretary to ex-
pend any amount he sees fit in the pur.
chase Of seeds of special nature and value.
Usually the contract to be let calls for
the expenditure of about $4,000, and the
probability is that the lowest responsible
bid in that neighborhoOd will be given the
work. For the coming year l5,0OO,OO0 or
100000 packages will be sent out, the
whole amount weighing about 500 tons. It
will be seen that the work is both expensive
and extensive.
The expectation Of the secretary Is that
the next contractor will use hand labor, as,
it is stated the experience Of the present
contractor is that he is able in that way
to do the packing for one-half the cost Of
the machines, and also to give employment
to large number of people. One machine,
it is reported, will do the work of not less
than four women and can be operated by
one woman.
The contract for the present is being rap.
idly carried out and the larger part Of the
distribution will be over by May l.

JUSTIN s. MORRIIL's SUCCESSOR

In it's issue of December 81 last,
three days after the death of the lam
ented Senator Morrill,, the Times said: :
GA seat in the senate has been Gen.
CIRCUITS ambition for years to crafty
his ambition he has directed every
energy. Such an ambition is noble
one and the general has a host of
friends in Vermont, both political and
personal, who finally believe that he
will make a creditable senator who
and do honor to the state" We were
then of the opinion, and see no reason
to change that opinion, that Gen.
Grout is the logical successor of Mr.
Morrill,, and believe that if Gov. Smith
had had the courage of his convictions
he would have given the appointment
to the general instead of offering it to
two gentlemen who were in no way
candidates. Gen. Grout maintained a
becoming and respectful silence re-
garding his own candidacy for re-
asonable length of time after Senator
Morrills death and funeral; but no
such question Of propriety seems to
have troubled some of the other candi-
dates, that is, if the candidates are to
be held responsible for the acts of their
supporters.
In due time however, Mr.. Grout let
it be known he would not again be a
candidate for the house, and, though
he did not say he was candidate for
the senate, it was plain to all that he
would be glad of the position. 1t was
also plain that if he did not go to the
senate he would go out of public life;
and from that time on his candidacy
has been rapidly gaining strength all
over the state SO that on Dewey day
at Montpelier it was the opinion of
those we have reason to think best
informed that he has a good lead in
the race. The Times has taken no
part whatever in booming General
GrOut, but the least it can do as a
newspaper is to state from time to
time what seems to be the trend of
public opinion regarding the incum-
bency Of this honorable and important
ofice.-Bellows Falls fines.

Charles Jenkins, junior member of
the firm Brown & Jenkins, meat deal
ers Bradford, committed suicide
Thursday by cutting his throat with a
razor. The cause of the rash act is
thought to be due to temporary in
sanity, caused by i'll health. Mr.. Jen-
klns has been in poor health for some
| months, at times complaining of his
head and was noticed to act strangely
| at times. He had apparently been
| considerably better for the past few
visit with relatives at chester. He
| returned Tuesday afternoon noticably
worse. 1t was necessary to keep him
under close watch to prevent his
jumping from the moving train. On
arriving home the family physician
was summoned and he was persuaded
TO retire. At about one O'Clock he
arose, taking the razor which he had
procured from a cupboard near at
hand went direct to the attic where
he was found few moments later by
his attendant, dead. Mr.. Jenkins was
about twenty six years of age.
Miss Jane Pingrey of fNorthfield was
awakened at four O'Clock last Sunday
morning by feeling pressure upon
her throat. She aWOke to see burg
lar who told her to keep still or he
would kill her and demanded her
money. Upon being informed that
she had no money he unsuccessfully
attempted a criminal assault. Mrs.
Julia Durkee who was sleeping in an
upstairs apartment heard the noise
and came down with lamp in her
hand. The burglar took chair in his
hands and smashed it into pieces
which he flung at Mrs Durkee when
she appeared. While he was thus
engaged Miss Pingrey made her escape
out of the house by way of bedroom
window. Mrs. Durkee fed out of the
front door. Both women ran in their
night clothes to the residence of Fred
Fuller and Sheriff Winch was called.
The burglar had effected an entrance
through the pantry window, ten feet
from the ground and left by the same
route. He was tracked for a short
distance but was not captured. A
negro living near has been arrested
charged with the crime.

Robert L. Pearson, deputy aud
itor for the interior department,
has returned from a visit to his home
in South Dakota. He says the people
of that state are too busy thrashing
wheat and kinds of grain and selling
cattle to talk politics; that the pros
perity of the stateis phenomenal, that
signal exception of wheat, are higher
than they have been for years, and
that the cattle market is so strong
that even ordinary COWS readily bring
$50 a head. Under these circumstan-
ces it is not surprising, he say that
many men heretofore prominent in
the democratic ranks have declared
