The New York Legislature elected Got. Hill United States Senator. suppose this leaves way clearly open for Mr. Cleveland's nomination for the Presidency in 1802. It is evident, and has been since the election, that Mr. Cleveland is the choice of i tho people outside of New York, and if he should have been beaten it would have been on account of the New York delegation. Mr. Hill is a far-sighted and doubtless thinks a in the baud is worth two Presidential possibilities in the future.

Tho Republicans recognize this fact and are trying by every means of cheat, stealing and to thwart the will of the people at the poles.

They have stolen tho in New Hampshire, and are now trying to gag the United States Senate, a body which more than a hundred years has never been limited in debate. It is to be hoped that the gag will not be applied. When such an august body as the changes their time honored custom of a hundred years just for partisan purposes in order for the party to keep itself in power against the will of the people our government will cease to a government of the people, for the people and by tho people. It will be a government of the cans, for the Republicans and by the Republicans, to steal, plunder and rob against tho will of the people.

Josephus Daniels, editor of the State Chronicle was re-elected State Printer by acclamation, and both branches of the Legislature ed by unanimous vote not to make any changes in the for the printing. Next time a man wants to be elected without a dissenting it would be a good idea to hire the Durham Globe to go to kicking against him. We are glad, to see that Gov.

For instance, ranch where the town of is now lo was owned by an old resident under the assumed appellation of Gil Of course vessels touching upon this coast were liable, as they were everywhere, to lose men by desertion if the men were maltreated. Such things have been so common that It is not difficult to believe that those who left their vessels in early days on this then distant course had cause for so doing. To known as a runaway sailor was no stain upon a man's character. It was no uncommon thing after my arrival here for sailors to be skulking hiding about from ranch to ranch till the vessel they had loft should leave the would catch and return sailors to get the reward which, I believe, captains of vessels in variably offered.
