Childs Wins

New York, 1895

Jamaica Saves the Normal School.

O'CONNOR'S BILL DEAD.

Vacheron Beaten at His Own Game, Whatever it Was.

ASSURED OF $50,000 MORE.

(Special to the Farmer.)

ALBANY, March 7th.

Senator Childs has won his fight on the normal school. He has never let up for a minute. Senator O'Connor has consented to withdraw his bill to steal the school for Binghampton, and has assured Mr. Childs of his support of the bill to appropriate $50,000 additional for the Jamaica school. This is a great victory for Senator Childs. Assemblyman Vacheron, who did nothing to stop the progress of the bill through the Assembly, is beaten at his own game, whatever it was. He ought to be ashamed even to face a citizen of Long Island again. It is hardly likely that the constituents whom he has betrayed will require his services in the future.


Correct — Very

Assemblyman Yacheron of Queens county must have beep asleep when he permitted to pass without objection the bill stealing the Normal School from Jamaica and giving it to Binghamton. It is said that the Assemblyman aspires to the position now held by Senator Childs. The chances are that instead of getting it he will be knocked on the head with a club, a fate which he well deserves. — Editorial in the Brooklyn Eagle of Sunday.
