A Word to Our Pntro ns.
E. Rr1NHART, Rec.

The year 1883 is drawing to a close
at which time it is customary to make
annual settlements nnd prepare for the
opening of the New Yenr. We puy
cash for paper, ink, type and other
uIaterinl, as we'll as cash to our work.
men. hence like airy other business, it
requires cash t" publish n newspaper.
Under these circumstances we arc I'M
der the necessity of calling upon our
patrons for prompt settlement Of their
accounts both for subscription md adj
vertiSing.
There are few, very few, sub
scribers who have paid nothing for the
INDEPENDENT since Jan. l. 1887, at
which time we took control of the
paper, TO such persons we have only
TO say that We cannot publish a paper
for nothing. We have waited patiently,
trusting that their remittapces would
come in due time; we shall continue to
send them the paper until Jan. l, 1889,
at which time the INDEPENDENT will be
discontinued to oil subscribers who are
two years in arrears. We nre COM
PEELED to take this course as matter
of self-protection, but we trust that no
one will be dropped from our subscrip-
ton list. Please take notice and gov
ern yourselves accordingly.

GOVERNOR Hill HEARD.
He StartIes the New York G.eXis-
lature by n strong Speech.

The State Senate Mt Albany, n. Y,
Tuesday. was organized by the election
OF j. Stout Tassett, Secretary of the Re-
publican National Committee, to the
Presidency pro tom.
The inauguration of Governor Hill
was conductsj with much circumstance
and display While reading his annual
message the Governor created some
sensation when he employed these
words:
'The necessity of some change in our
election laws, whereby the increasing
corruption which has become incidental
to our elections may DO prevented, ID
imperative. 1t is believed that the Il t.
Presidential election was the most cor
rupt of any in the history Of the oouu-
try, so far as the direct use OF money
WAS concerned in influencing electors,
and public sentiment is naturally
nTaked to the deIirnb,lity of some re-
lief. The peculiar causes which ill.,
duced this Immense corruption are APP
parent. Anxiety 10 subselve selfish and
private advantage rather than the gen.
eral interests of the public naturally led
to she campaign being conducted upon
alleged business principles, where
by it IS asserted that electors
were bought and sold like
go Ids and chattels in open markets.
1t is claimed that at least $lU0, 900 were
expended Ill the TSentie b aud Twenty
fourth Congressional Districts in this
State, Ill efforts made therein to elect
congressman and to secure an election
believed to be favorable to the policy of
STEERING private interests. SO success
fll have Leen the recent efforts at cor
rupting the ballot that good citzems were
led t. doubt whether the full anil un-
oln'sd sentiments Of the people mny
not Continue to be nuilitiei through
Eruption whenever nnl a. ofteu ns it
"p. ears thnt the inteletts of the people
conflict with those of lnonopolists, who,
prof gate with their money. ARE intent
o?on resisting all interie euce with their
selfish and arrogant demands"
Governor Hill recommended that by
joint resolution tue Legislature urge
