NOTE AND COMMENT.

The Republicans of Ohio have renomi-
mated Governor Foraker.
The estimate of the number of those
killed by the JohnstOwn flood increases.
The latest makes it fully 10000.
1t is fortunate for the American peo-
pie that they have base ball to fall back
upon for excitement in off years polite
ally.
The New York legislature appears to
have been too radical in its attempt to
change the method of executing crimi-
nails. A commission reported in favor OF
substituting death by electricity fol
hanging, and law was enacted accord
ingly. But counsel for the first mar
condemned to die by that means have
procured stay and the appointment Of
a commission to investigate the whole
subject.

The Middlebury REGISTER understands,
" on the best authority that the chances
of Judge Veazey of Rutland for place
on the Interstate Commerce commission
are good deal more than even, and fur
ther that eX-Gov. Ormsbee would like to
succeed him on the supreme court bench.
There is little doubt, we think. that Judge
Neazey will be appointed to the vacancy
on the Interstate Commerce commission,
provided the place falls to any Eastern
man. AS for the other suggestion, GOV.
Ormsbee has judicial mind, legal abil-
ity and high standing as citizen, and
would make an honest, sound and re-
spected Judge. But till it becomes plain
er than at present that Judge Veazey is
likely to be hit by Interstate lightning,
it is hardly necessary to canvass contn-
gencies of this sort Burlington Free
Press.
When a contingency" is almost a
certainty, and when an appointment is to
be made to one of the most important Of
fees in the State, it seems to us that 1t is
necessary to canvass that contingency.
Gov. Dillingham; will no doubt make a
wise selection should vacancy on the
supreme bench occur, but it would ma
terially aid him to arrive at that selection
if the newspapers told the people in ad-
vance what was going on and gave them
chance to express their views.
