Congressman Peterson has notified The Democrat that he has received his allotment of the government “free seed graft,” used by our congressmen for electioneering purposes, and that application should be made direct to him. It is humiliating indeed to note that our democratic members of congress have nearly all linefi up in favor of continuing this iniquituous seed graft, one of the worst of the many impositions put upon the people of the country. A big pile of money could be saved each year by obliterating this graft, but our democratic lawmakers show little inclination toward economy, we are sorry to say.
