world would continue peaceful. The
reading occupied two hours, but not
over a dozen members left their seats

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.--This was
field day for the Democrats in
both houses Of Congress. The
Olmstead resolution Of inquiry
aimed chiefly at the Southern
States, directing the committee on
census to report in what States
Ike right TO vote is denied citizens,
except for participation in rebel
lion or other crimes, went down
under the filibustering tactics in
augurated by the House Demo-
Gratis, while the ship subsidy bill
in the Senate, was Displaced and
now stands at the foot Of the list
in the order of unfinished busi-
ness as the result of Democratic
hostility and opposition.
The fight precipitated in the
House today over the Olmstead
resolution was the first pronounce
cd clash between the two great
political parties at this session. 1t
was unexpected, too, for none Of
the leaders on either side of the
chamber had an mkling of what
representative Olmstead intend
cd to do until he arose in his
scat to a question of privilege.

Free Seeds For the Farmers.

n
The farmers of Louisiana and
Mississippi will be interested in
learning that the annual distribu-
ton Of seed BY the department. Of
Agriculture will begin next week,
says q press special from WASH
'ngton, dated January 2. As has
been customary in the past, the
South, which is first in COM
mencing the work of planting,
will be first served, the North be-
ing the last Section Of the country
to receive the attention. of the
department. The demand for
garden seed in the past has been
so great that at the last session Of
Congress there was appropriated
$40, 900 more than usual, or, in all,
a total Of $4,000, for the pur-
chase and free distribution of gar.
den seed. Under this appropria-
ton each member and Senator
will be allowed 5000 packages of
seed in excess of last years distri-
button, each package containing
several varieties of seed.
The distribution this year will
be made by the New YorksMarket
Garden Association, a concern
that Is now installing a plant OF
machinery in Washington with
which to do the packing.
For this purpose a device has
been invented which not only fills
the envelopes with seed, but also
seals il as well. Each of these de-
vices can fill and seal seventy en-
velopes a minute. Eight machines
will be used in the work of filling
and sealing, and it is expected
that they will do the work hereto-
fore requiring ut least 100 girls.
Notwithstanding this, however,
100 girls will be needed to assort
the seeds and to do other work in
connection with the distribution
and shipment of the seed. This
force will be worked in a day and
a night shift constantly, to keep
pace with the work demanded of
the contractors.

There Is no denying the grit OF
William Jennings Bryan. Most
men would have sunk from pub.
lie view after two successive de-
feats for the Presidential office.
One defeat has proved enough to
bury number OF men in oblivion.
There were Horati0 Seymour, of
New York, who was the Demo-
cratic standard bearer in 1868,
with Gen. Grant as his opponent.
How many people heard of him
after Grants election? In 1872,
Horace Greeley was in the field
against Gen. Grant for second
term. Poor old Greeley was
showed under, and died, it is said,
of chagrin and disappointment.
Gen. Hancock led the Democratic
forces in 1880. He occupied little
or no place in the public mind af-
ter his defeat by Garfield. This
is matter of post-bellum history.
The number Of like cases of obs
curity for defeated Presidential
candidates before the war is large.
But Bryan, though crushed to
earth, manages, like truth, to rise
again. A fine specimen of Amo-
rican manhood, the Nebraskan.
