JONATHAN CAREERS HEIRS.
siE Vermonters Who Claim the Land on which
Several Minnesota Cities Arc Built.

BRATTLEBoRo, Vt, July 1o.-Six persons
living In this vicinity claim TO be the rightful
owners of a tract of 1000 900 acres in the State
of Minnesota, including the land on which the
cities of st. Paul, saltwater and Hastings and a
part of Minneapolis are situated. They base
their claim on an Indian grant to Jonathan
Carver. made in 1867 by the Nawdowessic tribe
in the famous Carver's Cave. Hennepin county.
MINI. A statement from Chillicothe. o.. last
week, said that tho original deed is on record
there. The heirs have been endcavoring to gain
possession of their property since Jonathan
Carvcr's death. A duplicate OF the deed was an
heirloom in the family for years, and both
the missing original.
Jonathan Carver, the original grantee. was
one OF the rowing spirits OF the New England
colonies. His grandfather had been r Colonel in
King Williams army in Ireland. his father "A
New England justice of the peace, and he in his
eighteenth year became an ensign in enc Of tho
colonial regiments during the French and Indian
war. Later he was made Captain in Col. Will
lilmss command, and participated in the hattie
OF Lake George. where st. Pierre was killed. At
the close Of the war he started 10 explore tho
back woods. lie left Boston in 1866 and plsscd
the first winter in the wigwams of the Nawdo-
wcssie Indians in Hcnncpin county. Minnesota.
He became n great sachem among them. and
when he left. in the spring OF the next year, they
presented him with this grant in the cave after
ward known as Carvcr's Cave.
Carver married Abigail Robbins OF Brandon,
Vi, and the majority OF tho claimants to tho
Minnesota grant are tho descendants of their
daughter Sarah. who is still living in Windham
county, Vermont.

FOUR GOVERNORS THIS YEAR.
Lively Contests Expected In tho CoHins Can
vnss In Ohio and Iowa.

Lively Contests Expected In tho Coming Cam
vass In Ohio and Iowa.
The four States that will elect Governors four
months hence are Ohio. Iowa, Virginia, and
Massachusetts,. In tho two first q lively contest
is expected. for upon tho result will depend n
senatorship in Ohio, and the battle in Iowa,
which has now become an uncertain State on
local issues, is likely to DO decided on limos diff
feront from those which governed and deter
mined tho campaign of last year.
William Mckinley carried Ohio in 1906 by q
majority OF ~, 600. of which Hamilton county,
which includes tho city OF Cincinnati, con-
tributod 10000, IN Rbnormally high figure, and
tho other eighty-soven counties OF tho State
made up $4,000. In the State election Of tho
year previous the Republican majority was
$1,000 in Ohio. and tho year before that 1t was
1877, 900. no that tho Republican lead has been
gradually declining since tho anti.Cleveland
wave OF 1894. This year Senator Hanna Is q
candidate to succeed himself for q full term
In tho Unitcd States Senate. and ho has
as competitor on tho Democratic. side John
r. Mclean. Tho commercial rivalry between
OF late, and Cleveland has boon getting rather
tho better OF 1t. Cincinnati has one of the
Ohio Senators at present In former Gov. For
sst take st the o other senatorship has already pro.
voked the antagonism of the Clcvelandites now
estpiSSto. the contest for Governor Of Ohio Is
subordinate to tho battle for control o. tho Legis-
latnrc, which will choose Mr.. Hanna's successor.
and for the control Of this Legislature at Column
bus there will be tho hardest sort OF n fight.
Iowa Is normally q Republican State. OF $50
members OF the Des Moincs Legislature 123 nro
Republicans, and the Iowa delegation In Wash
ington and the State officers are Republicans.
At tho same time tho Democrats have twice chr
ried the State during the contests OF tho last
eight years for Governor. and there is this year
q fusion on u candidate called Democratic" by
the Bryan Democrats. the silver Republicans,
amount to very much in the Hawkcye State. but

and made Iowa one Of the prohibit

returned to the Republican party In 1906. VIII
liam jennings Bryan having no attractions for
them. This year their course. is uncertain as
the Democrats have left ont all reference to the
prohibition question in their party platform, hop
Ing thereby to secure the support Of many for
mer Prohibitionists now members Of the Popu-
list party. Whether these gains will offset the
losses Of German voters remains to be seen. but
the present indications are very favorable to
Republican success in Iowa.
! Massachusetts is AS strongly Republican as
Virginia is Democratic. In last years election
400, 900 votes were cast in Massachusetts, and
900, 900 in Virginia McKinley's plurality in
Massachusetts, was $4,000; Bryan's plurality
In Virginia was Is.

CAPT. WARDyELL's TEETH.

BE against HIS Recovering Them.

MAcHIAs. Me-, July "a suit to replevin q

Boston to join a vessel, took an old-style. gold.
plated set of upper teeth to William Gubtill and
borrowed $40. giving the false teeth as security.
Capt. Wardwell went on q long voyage. and
while he was away Gubtill. having lost his
upper teeth. thought he would experiment with
the plate. The teeth fitted as II they had been
made for him, and when Capt. Wardwoll re.
turned to redeem his property Gubtill refused
to give IL up.
The lawyers say that Capt, wardwell. whilo

back his teeth. The writ OF replevin calls for
personal property. hut according to Maine rul-
ings nm article which is 40 closely associated
with n man as his false teeth are. is not personal
property. but q portion OF his person. and not
subject to replevin or attachment while II Is in

can take them away. though II could he proved
that he stole them. Should he take tho teeth
out for an instant they could DO recovered by
the man who pawned them.

LIQUOR, BEER, AND TAXES.
The Expenditures of Various Nations for Food
and for Drink.

and for Drink.
Il 10 O familiar assertion of the Prohibitionists
that moro money Is spent for beer than for
broad. and that II beer and whiskey drinking
were done away with there would be a large
saving to the community. Whether beer or
bread costs more in a year Is a question on which
the statisticians do not agree. but they are
pretty generally OF the opinion that more money
is spent for drink-including spirits and wine
with beer-than for bread and all other articles
Of nutriment made from grain. In the United
Kingdom. for instance, it is computed that
the expenditure for liquor in a year is $780,
OOO. OOO. against 100000 900 for grain. In
France the proportion was 95 to 80. In Ger
many, where there Is relatively less bread eaten
than In France. the figures are as 80 to rs; in
Italy they are as As to AZ. in Spain as 80 to %,
and in the United States as rs to 80. In all Of
these countries. therefore, it may be said that
the consumption Of liquors exceeds in value the
The United States have long been able to meet

cents q gallon on the average, and this item OF
revenue yields the Government about 800, oOO..
600 a year. having more than doubled since
1873. Whatever the indirect effects of the
sale OF liquor may no on the inhabitants of a
country. the fact Is undeniable that all civilized
Governments with scarcely any exception get a
large share of their revenues from beer and
whiskey taxes. A computation was recently
made to the effect that during tho five years OF
the civil war $500, 0O0, 900 was raised by inter
nal taxation and $500 600, 900 from tariff
