And we believe it will be the general opinion
that it was mistake to select for Bank Superin-

winding up the affairs of q savings bank, and
has not yet discharged that trust. Here again
politics come to the surface. Mr.. Paine has
been persistent candidate for the office since
the election last year, and success has now
crowned his efforts. His claims for services
as receiver are yet unadjusted, though
he has already received $4,000. George
NJ. Beebe. another persistent Oflice-sceker, has
been rewarded with one of the Court of Claims
Commissionerships. He is not the man for the
place, and the appointment can be ex-
planned only on tho supposition that
the Governor felt that this balm
was due Mr. Beebe's spirit which had been so
sorely wounded in his unsuccessful campaign
for tho Insurance SUPPLEMENTARY.
The appointments will undoubtedly strengthen
the Governor with the "workers" of his
party, the men who are nothing if not grossly
partisan, and who believe in Old-fashioned
politics. But they will not add to his reputa-
lion among the great body of the people who
are opposed to seeing important positions
filled by the wrong men.

spirit and action of these representative bodies

some observers to Mr.. ParnelPs personal as

CONGRESSIONAL APPoRTiONMENT

~
II seems TO be generally conceded that the
Legislature will adjourn sine die next week,
but the fact remains that one Of the most i'm
portant of the great public measures OF the Sos
sion has not yet been disposed of. We refer to
the bill providing for reapDortionng the Con-
gressional districts IL was the duty OF the last
Legislature to make the reapportlonmentr but
that weak and inefficient body met its obllga-
ton to the people ia this matter as 1t met most
of its weighty official obligations-it SHRED it..
The present Legislature has done little better.
True, tho Assembly passed an Apportonment
bill several weeks ago; true, also, the Senate
received it from the Assembly, not promptly to
consider it and concur in its passage, but slni-
pIy 10 smother il. ID turned out that one OF the
Democratic Senators had prepared, or at least
was entrusted with, an Apportionment bill
which it was understood was more satisfactory
TO the recognized party managers than the AS
,embly bill. When this Senate bill-the Jacobs
biIl-was p resented it was easy to see why the
men who run the Democratic party in this
State should counsel its passage rather than
the other one. The Assembly bill contains
some skilful carving for the benefit OF the
Democracy, but tho Senate bill ID little better
than a geuymander.
Bnt gerrymander or not, why has 1t not been
pressed Why has a measure In which every
voter in the State is vitality concerned been
held back by the committee to which it was
referred The delay warrants the suspicion
that those behind the bill, realizing its in
derensible character, were unwilling to submit
it when there was time for full debate, prefer
ring to spring il upon the Senate in the last
hours of the session, when every minute is
urecious, and rush it through 10y free applica-
ton Of the party lash without opportunity be-
ing afforded fol- exposing its glazing defects.
If there is any other theory of the delay in
passing the Apportonment bill we should I've
glad to know what it is. We do not believe
that there is. We believe it has been allowed
to sleep in committee for purpose, discred-
table partisan, Democratic purpose.

THE GOTERYOR'S LAST NOMINA TION

TIE GOJEHNOH - LIoI NOhiNh IIONO.
The spirit of partisanship appears to be in
fictitious at Albany. Governor Cleveland is
falling into line with the narrow minded and
selfish leaders who rule in the Legislature.
His nominations sent to the Senate yes
terday can scarcely be defended save upon
party grounds. The men chosen to fill
the important Offices Of immigration Commits
sioner Bank Superintendent and Court of
Claims Commissioners were evidently not
selected because of their fitness to administer
those trusts, when measured by any standard
other than service to the party. This is the
more to be regretted, because in the nomi-
nation of Mr.. Mccall for Insurance
Superintendent, and in his veto of the
bill to legisate the Buffalo Fire Commissioners
out of Office, the Governor has recently shown
q disposition to break loose from the party
shackles that bind the majority in the Senate
and Assembly. There are many important
measures now before the Legislature, like the
Aqueduct and Apportionment bills, which have
been materially altered to further selfish politi-
cal ends. If the Governor were to show a
purpose to defeat such legislation these bills
might yet be passed in shape that would
