OF amendments TO the Constitution for

\ bill has been introduced IN The Ten

to cede to Virginia the northern hall OF
Main Street. Both Bristol, Tenn, ana
Bristol, Va, stand for this measure, and

its coming extra session, to ratify the

The settlement of this long veXing mat

to the viewpoint OF the observer. \ man
whose speeches have never failed TO pro-

4 STROKE or LUCK

\ STROKE Or LUCK
The curious feature of the situation IS
that this new political alignment IS the
result of conditions that neither ex-Goy-
ernor Hill nor any one of his friends was
even remotely instrumental in bringing
about Had not the brave Bishop OF the
Episcopal Church ava kened the conscience
of the metropolis by laying bare the
scarlet misrulc that corredes so many OF
the municipal departments as administer
ed under Tammany, the movement for
Democratic publication within the Wig
wan would scarcely have taken place, or,
If il had the chances of its success were
almost infinitesimal. The revelations of
official iniquity that are made in the sue
cessive issues of every newspaper haV<
so incensed the respectable followers OF
Tarnrnany that the enemies of Richard
Croker have the game all in their own
hands.
Seldom indeed, has a political leader
played in greater luck than David 3. Hill
is playing in this opening month OF the
new century. The raformers do not Ike
him one whit better than they do the
trammany chief. Tsleir policy and purpose
are to wrench the government of New
York from the Crokerites and the Hilhtes,
but, all the same, every move they make
counts for Hill. Il is very certain that tie
Tammany candidate for Mayor VIII be
beaten next fail. but that defeat will
not deprive the Hill men of the control
OF the machinery OF the party in the
campaigns that are TO follow up 70 the
next national one In 1904.
