WON'T PICK THE FIRST
CITIZEN OF MARYLAND.
Why the Governor Ignores Request to
Name Foremost Man Of State.

While Governor Brumbaugh, of the
State of Pennsylvania, has sent to the
San Francisco Exposition Commission
the names of three citizens of the Key
stone State worthy of being honored
by that body as the most eminent in
the Commonwealth. Governor Phillips
Lee Goldsborough. of Maryland, has
passed the problem up. He evidently
thinks il too dangerous
No word has come from Maryland's
Governor since he received the Letter
from the Exposition people inviting
him to make the selection of a man the
Exposition Commission might honor.
He has declined to make a statement
and without the aid of a good mind
reader he is as difficult to ascertain
what he thinks on this subject as il is
to dope out how he figures the polit-
ical situation in his own party.
The wise people say that the Gov
ernor, whether he is to run again or
not, will not face the problem of pick
ing the States foremost man. He
might be willing to pick fifty or a hun
dred foremost men. for then he could
take all of the big ones, but to single it
down to one-that's too much to ask.
No matter how wise a selection he
might make, it is conceded that he
would offend at least $4,000 good citi-
zens. who would have been pleased to
be the choice even though they have
no idea what honor the Exposition
people intend to bestow.
The present prospect is that if any
Marylander is to be honored as the
States leading, foremost citizen he
will have to nominate himself. So
here is chance for some real great
man who is not afflicted with the curse
of many great men-modesty.

COUNTY AGENT SECURED.
Farmers Association Secures Worth ineton c. Kennedy, to Be Graduated From Massachusetts Agricultural College in June.

At the meeting of the executive com- mittee of the WiEdham County Farm CTS association here Friday afternoon, Judge c. o. Thompson of Pomfret, senator from the TwentyNinth dis trict, was elected president of the as sociation to succeed Hary II. DaVen- port of Ponfret, resigned
 Worthington c. Kennedy, of Hard wick, Mass, was elected as county agent, his salary to be 5, 1,5G0 a year. MT. Kennedy is regarded as an eX- ceptionai man for the position. He is 29 years of age and a student at the Massachusetts Agricultural college, from which he will be graduated in June. In the meantime he will give about half his time to the interests of the county association, being paid on that basis. After graduation he will
 devote his time to the duties.
 MT; Kennedy comes to Windham county with the very best of refer ences and recommendations. He was
 born on a farm, and has spent prac- tically all his life on a farm and has made the study of farm subjects his life work. He has studied and prac- ticed farming in it's various branches from about every angle and has been in charge of farms keeping as high as 300 cows. He is familiar with dairy ing subjects as with general farm ing. His college course, taken rather later in life than is customary, will augment the great amount of practi- | cal experience he has had. | Members of the committee who saw l him and talked with him on Friday | were very faVcrably impressed and | feel that they have secured an un- | usually well qualified man, one who
 knows his business thoroughly and5 is | practical
 Next Friday MT. Kennedy will come
 to Putnam and at that time he will i be ready to meet anyone who has | farm problems to be solved. He will l also at that tie make arrangements
 and dates for giving lectures for or i ganizations interested in promoting i agriculture and will discuss with all
 who come some subject pertaining to
 the duties of the office of county | agent
 The committee expected to be re- l quired to pay more than the salary | at which Mr. Kennedy has been en- l gagged, but the fact that he is just
 coming from college enabled them to l make more advantageous terms. The | securing of such a finely equipped | man as the new agent is regarded as | aan extraordinary piece of good luck. Heard About Town.
 I State Policeman Robert Bridgeman i of Hartford was in Putnam on Friday. | Mrs. George A. Cassavant of | Woonsocket is spending the week end | with Putnam relatives.
