The spectacle of Governor Hill

The Bellows Falls Times has had
slight difference with man who PEN
ciled on the margin of his paper Not

tai clerk. The Times took the occasion
to make some very strong statements
about the delinquent debtor, and the
editor seems to have got into quite
state of mind. 1t would seem to be
nearly time that Vermont newspapers
gave up the antigua ted custom of send
ing paper to a man till he pays his

Springfield Republican.
The lamentable feature is that in
large measure the result is personal
victory for Gov. Hill, who was quick to
take advantage of legal flaws and quib-
bles and play the trickster's role to Sc
cure possession of the new legislature
on Joint ballot. With all branches of
the state government under democratic
control, the political effects will be far
reaching. The state will now be reap
portioned and redistricted for the first
time since 1875, and of course the power
of the New York democracy in the leg
islative districts will be greatly strength
ened outside of New York city. 1t is
very probable that the successor of Sem
ator Hiscock will be a democrat. Hill,
too, can now resign his senatorship
without fear of republican seizure of
the seat, and the country may be pre-
pared in consequence for bid more
audacious than ever from this man for
