DILLINGHAM; ELECTED SENATOR.
The Senatorial contest eliminated
last Thursday in the election of
William P. Dillingham;. At the time
of going to press last Wednesday,
the second joint ballot had been
taken. This showed loss for Grout
and gain for Dillingham;. 1t looked,
however, as though the contest
might soon be settled. Such proved
to be the case. Early Thursday
morning Mr.. Prouty informed his
supporters that they need not vote
for him longer as he had decided to
withdraw from the contest, and he
also sent word to Gov. Dillingham;
that he was out of the fight. The
Democrats also had decided to vote
as unit no longer for their nominee.
This settled matters and long before
the hour for the legislature to meet,
it was conceded that Dillingham;
would be elected on the next ballot.
At noon Thursday the ballot was
taken with the following result:

The New York Herald, the greatest
independent newspaper in the United

of the result of the coming election,
which is based on data collected with
unusual care. 1t believes Mckinley
will have 281 votes in the electoral
college and Bryan 166, This would
give Mckinley a majority of lis; in
1896 he had 95 majority. The Her.
aid also predicts that the next House

Fish Hatchery.
(Randolph Herald and News)
The proposed appropriation of
$4,000 for the State fish hatchery ia
not excessive, and ought to be voted,
if the hatchery is to be maintained at

the past two years, of which one of
the commissioners has received but
$3.50 for his services in superintend-
ing the business, and the other COM

some doubt if license bill with ref

EX-SENATOR ROSS LETTER.
EST. JoHNsBURY, VT, Oct 20, 1900.
Hon. William w. Stickney, Governor
of Vermont -
My Dear Governors kindly allow
me, through you, to express my high
appreciation and heartfelt thanks to the
people, and especially to the bar of Yer
mont, for the umberless kindnesses
and the uniform courtesy and great for
bearance shown me during the nearly
thirty years of public service just ended.
No one more keenly realizes the imper-
fections which intermix with all human
service. | have, however, the consola-
ton of having always earnestly endeav-
ored to serve my native state honestly
and faithfully to the best of my ability
and therein of having striven to do
equal right and justice to all persons ,
irrespective of party and positions.
: However diverse my views may be
from those prevalent and to some extent
seemingly approved in the recent SEN
atorial contest, they are settled convic-
tons of right and duty, and l entertain
only the kindest feelings for Vermont
and for every interest of the state.
! Most sincerely your obedient serv-
ant, JONATHAN Ross"
(! GOVERNOR sTICKNEY's REPLY.
"Hon. Jonathan Ross -
My Dear Senator Your letter of
Saturday last is received and it shall be
given to the press tomorrow, but it
would not be just to let this occasion
pass without assuring you that your
long and devoted public service is deep
ly appreciated throughout the state by
every citizen who has at heart the best
interests of the community Let me add
that your faithful labors upon the bench,
covering period of more than twenty
eight years, and your recent distin-
guished career in the Senate of the
United States, will live long in the men,
DRY as the works of one whose armor is
his honest thought and simple truth
his utmost skill
With high esteem, I remain, very
truly yours,

The bill increasing the salary of the
Supreme Court Judges ought to be
defeated. The state has no difficulty
in securing the best of legal talent for
this position at the price it now pays
and to add a thousand or two more
to the salary of each means consider
able to the taxpayers. When the
state finds it cannot secure compe-
tent men for judges at the present
price, then will be time enough to in
crease the salary.

with its splendid trappings and mag

an event in the history of the Demo-
