Great as s the state's/loss, that of his bereaved famlly Is infinitely great- er. He loved his home, and it was there he had his happiest hours. He lived for his wife and “the boys.” His | consideration of them and their wel- fare was ever uppermost, and bls am- bitions _were the greater because of | them. The sincere sympathy of the entire commonwealth is theirs in their sad bereavement.—Ansonia Sentinel. A Man of the People. Governor Lilley came from the ranks. He {llustrated the possibilities that ex- ist today for every earnest, honest, in- dustrious and Intelligent American boy however humble his origin and how- ever limited the advantages given him by fortune. What he had gajned he had earned by work and worth and in his start he owned nothing to the ad- ventitious help of wealth or station. So far as he had been spared in the administration of the governorship he had shown the same earnest zeal for the public welfare and for the accom- plishment of reform that had been his characteristic in all his public life and which brought upon him the crushing power of a political and finan- cfal cabal, which determined upon his destruction, and whose abuse heaped upon him In Washington and at home was the indireot If not the immediate cause of his physical failure.—Bridge- port Standard. A Fair Fighter. Governor Lilley was a hard but fair fighter. He had the courage that most people admire, even if they do not agree with the course followed or the proposition advocated.

He had been fortunate in.every con- test he entered from the time, less than ten years ago, when he wH% elect- ed representative from Waterbury. He had a personality that made and retained ‘friends. His promptness and willingness to do favors in an of- ficial or.personal sense added many to his following.—Meriden Journal. His Sterling Manhood. George Lilley died the governor of Connecticut. He wanted the office, as we believe and have tried to show, chiefly to vindicate his own estimate of himself, to prove his right to seek it and his power to fill it worthily, and to justify the loyalty of his friends under severe trial. But he wanted it also, we think, to make up for the thingg that were denied him in his preparation for life's duties, as an honor the more valuable because the road to it was so hard and steep, | and for the. happiness and satisfaction of his aged mother, his devoted wife and his faithful sons whose pride and confidence in him and a crown of corp- pensation for all that he-went through. Could his assailants him into the refuge of his home they might have been surprised to find in its gentleness and_affection evidence as convincing as the stiff fight he put up against them of his sterling manhood.
