He ought not to be allowed to find a way, by the help of State Senators, to retain his office, What- ever doubt there may have been as to his qualifications is removed by the disclosure of his @venection with the State Trust Company. Gov, Roceevelt, in the performance of bis duty, eught to dinpose of Payn summarily, He ought net te give Payn a chance to “bold up” the entire Btate solely to serve his own selfish purposes.
