Here is another rcbuke for the double Office
holder at Albany: Mayor Chapin expresses "h
intention of resgning his present office LII time

Probably the most remarkable phenomenon ever
witnessed on this island is tue conjunction Of o
Democratic victory and water famine. NO one
would have supposed from the appearance of the

Secretary Proctor has completed bis work IN
the War Department and placed his resignation IN
the hands of the President 1t will, as matter
Of necessity be accepted soon, and on the first
Monday in December Mr.. Proctor will become
Senator Proctor. In that Office he will succeed
a man who has had long and honorable public
career, and If Vermont is true to her excellent
traditions, Senator Proctor will be sent to Wash
ington for more than one term In the War De
partment he has shown marked administrative
ability and great capacity for public affairs; and
we doubt not that in the Senate he will retain
and increase the public esteem which has set the
stamp of approval upon his course as Secretary
Of War. His retirement from this office will be
universally regretted but that retirement means,
if not promotion, at least transfer to another
honorable and useful post.
