The Government Seed Fraud.

Speaking Of the annual congress.
sional seed distribution, the Char
lotte Chronicle says: =
BY the way, why do not some
OF the economizers in Congress
tackle this most outlandish of all
species of graft? They seem
more afraid to kill the free seed
fraud than the average North
Carolina legislator does to vote
for a dog law.
It has been talked aforetims,
but It's like the mileage graft
and other graft schemes enjoyed
by Congress, the majority of the
members prefer to hold on to it
There may have been a time,
which we doubt, when this DIS
trlbution of seed by the govern
ment had some Justification; but
if a good reason for it ever exist
ed the time has long since passed.
The expense of this seed distri.
button Is pure waste.-Statesville
