HILL TO RETIRE
FROM POLITICS
FORMER NEW YORK SENATOR TO
QUIT PUBLIC LIFE.
SETS JANUARY I AS DATE
Declares Result of Coming Campaign
Will Not Alter His Decision AL
though He Will Work for
Democratic Success.

Albany, N. Y, Aug. 29.-David B. Hill,
in conversation with friends here Sun
day. announced that he intends to retire
from politics January 1, next, and that
no matter what the result of the coming
campaign may be in state or national, he
will relinquish the Leadership of the
democratic party in New York.
He added that in the event of demo-
cratic success this fall he would not ac-
cept any position under the national or
state democratic administration or
again become candidate for election
to any Office whatever.
Former Senator Hill made these state
ments on the eve of his birthday ami
versary which is to-day. He was born
August 20, 1S43.
Makes Partial Explanation.
In partial explanation, he said that
he had intended to take such action a
year ago, but was persuaded by some
close personal friends to defer doing so
until after the presidential election this
year. Having been engaged in active
politics since his youth and having
served as city attorney alderman and
mayor of Elmira, member of the legis-
lature, lieutenant governor, governor
for seven years and United States SEN
ator for six years, he feels that he has
been sufficiently honored by his party,
and that he has rendered political serv-
ice during period of years sufficient to
entitle him to be relieved of further ac-
tive political effort. He desires to de-
vote more time to his personal affairs
and professional duties than he has in
the past.
Mr. Hill will continue his work in the
present campaign, and to his friends
said that he would always maintain his
interest in democratic success, but only
as a private citizen.
Mr.. Hill will speak for the democracy
at the county fair to be held at Whit
ney's Point, in this state, on Wednes-
day of this week, to be followed by Sen
ator Depew the next day for the repub-
licans.

Because of a shortage of domestic

pendent entirely upon the 'hired girl
the outlook might be conceded to be
depressing. But we may console our

have done their own work" and will
continue to do it. So long as this is
the case we shall be all right.

slain by rumors. The aggregate OF

are nothing like those reported.
