We learn thai the Boarl of Education

St. Jolnsbury, Secretary. Mr.. Rankin
is now clerk OF tie court at ST. Johns

also of the law school at Cambridge, but

laborious enough 10 task the energies of

them much more than Il matter of rou-

means a desirable one. but from what
we can learn Of Mr. Rankin's fitness for

Result of November Elections.

There is little to add to the record OF
last week, concerning the result OF Tues
days elections. Later returns show
them to be more pronounced In favor OF
the democracy than at first appeared. In
Massachusetts the republican ticket Is
chosen by a vote of $4,000 against 3d.
900 last wear. but by a decreased major
itv. Gov. Bulock's majority will not
reach 10000, while the democratic vote
comes up from 10000 to nearly 10000.
The most noteworthy feature in that
State is the change III favor Of license
law. With legislature two-tlirds re-
publican, it will be three-quarters license
law.
In New York the democratic majority
according to the latest figures, will reach
1905. The highest officer chosen was
secretary of state. Gov Fenton holding
over. In New York city the Democrat
ic majority Is 50, S2S, the registration be-
ing 5000 larger than last year, but the
vote being 5000 less.
In New jersey six senators were elect
ed, atd the entire house OF representa-
tives. The Democrats having large
majority in the popular vote, have both
houses by large majoritics.
In Maryland the democratic governor
was elected by large majority in Bal
timore alone they had 1900 majority
In Wisconsin, Gov. Fairchild, repub-
lean, is reelected by a majority of g.
600 or t 900 over J. J. Talmadge, the
democrats gaining six or eight members
OF the assembly and three or four scna-
tors, with about 1000 on the popular
vote The legislature remains strongly
republican, however.
In Minnesota, w. X. Marshall, re-
publican, Is elected governor over c. T.
Flandrau, by about 1000 majority. The
constitutional amendment grantin. negro
suffrage is probably defeated.
In kan-as there We're three side is
sues. woman suffrage, negro suffrage and
disloyal di>tranchiSement and all OF them
were voted down. the first by from s.
900 TO 10000 majority.

a series of tactics for getting into power,
There is no evidence any where OF a seri-
Gus desire to deal fairly with the press
ing questions of the country. The only
thing every where evident is that it has
changed no opinions, and it holds as
strongly as ever to the spirit OF the Nlr-
ginia and kentucky resolution of '9S :;
that it honors and trusts most the men
who were the most subservlent to the
domination of slavery in the government :;
and that it wholly and contemptuously
denies that government should rest upon
the expressed consent OF the governed.
Should it return to power we must ex-
pect every question settled by the war TO
be reopened. We must anticipate repu-
diation and commercial CONFUSION such
as no country ever experienced. We
must be prepared for a policy toward the

would cry shame. The success OF the

good result of the Editors and Printers
association, organized at Montpelier last

newspaper men, as related at the meet
