New Political Combinations,

One of the, most interesting political
stories which has come out of Washing
ton for many a day was that furnished
by r h e gu mai $ Washington cor
respondent yesterday. James A. Peter
son hobnobbing politically with Loren
Fletcher and furnishing ground for the
surmise that there has been some kind
of an alliance formed between these two
local leaders, is calculated to convince the
public that fire and water will mix after
all, especially In politics. Mr.. Peterson,
it will be remembered, made a campaign
of fierce denunciation of Mr.. Fletcher but
Mr.. Fletcher may appear quite differently
In Mr.. Peterson's eyes now If the surnise
is correct that he is to have Mr. Fletcher s
support as q candidate for congress the
next time
The combinati which is said to have
been put up is a strong one as far as po-
litical experience and skill goes-Peterson
for congress, Dunn for governor and
Heatwole for the senate. And that, sug-
gests that there has been some more
hatchet burying when Heatwole and Dunn
get into political harness together Our
