Political Gossip

It has been stated that Comptroller Daniel P. Dunn had changed his pref erence for the United States senator ship, and that he is now faboravle to the nomination. of Congressman Mahan
 instead of Governor Baldwin. The statement was repeated to MT. Dunn this week. and it needed but the repeti- ton to evoke from him a reply which made it clear that the statement was absolutely without foundation, and that Governor Baldwin has no more enthu- siastic supporter in the state for the United States senatorship than the comptroller. MT. Dunn has never wavered for moment in his support of the governors candidacy, and i should be said that even before Gov ernor Baldwin had made up his mind to be candidate for the senatorship Comptroller Dunn advocated his nomi- nation. Comptroller Dunn hopes to be able to carry his native town of Wind ham for Governor Baldwin. The de- feat of the Fisher Mahan forces in Norwich was referred to in the course of the conversation, and the reference brought to mind the fact that the name of MT. Comstock as a candidate for governor was coupled with that of Governor Baldwin on the winning ticket. Comptroller Dunn said he would not support the candidacy of MT -Comstock under any circum- stances. He says the nomination for governor should go to Lieutenant Gov ernor Lyman T. Tingier, who, he says, is entitled to it. The comptroller be- lieves the democracy of the state de- sires the nomination of the lieutenant governor and that a large number of others who are not democrats vii vote for his election at the polls. Comptrol- Ter Dunn is not alone in this opinion. The sentiment for the nomination of MT. Tingier is strong, in fact, very strong. The only thing which stands in the way of his nomination is Mir. Tingier himself. He has disinclina- ton to run for the office.-Hartford Times.

The dairymen of the state con- tend that under present conditions there is no profit in the business. Among the several speakers was John Emmons of Saltwater, who said that the high cost of cattle and grain was the cause of the present lack of pro- fit from which milk producers are en- during. "A few years ago" he stated, you could buy a good COW for $6o; now they cost from ss0 to s1oo; grain used to be 85 cents, now 1t is $1.02." :" He caused a laugh by saying that 1t was like dog biting his tail to make both ends meet.

 Practically all of the speakers, al- though all had kept no definite figures knew that they were not making pro- fit on the sale of milk. and some had given up that department of their farm rather than sink the profits of other produce in 1t. The dairymen were asked to keep accounts of the next three months and send them to Bos- ton Chamber of Commerce to aid in the report of the investigations which will be published early in January.

Those fast disappearing brothers Of

are they really aboriginally Ameri-
can, after all?
It has been practically established
at last-much to our surprise-that
they are not! Instead Of being ma
tive to this continent, the warlike In
dian, who struggled SO long against
the white invader, was himself an
invader! His ancestors were peace
full stone-age men living in PARKWAY
Mongolia and Tibet! After the re-
treat of the great glaciers or pre-
historic times, some OF these people
migrated northeastward through ST.
IBERIA and came to the American con-
tinent by way of Alaska. Gradually
they broke up into the diverse tribes
speaking different languages which
Columbus found, when, coming from
the opposite direction, he discovered
the new world.
Columbus called them Indians"
thinking that in this strange land ne
had found by a new route the raDied
Indies. Perhaps his name was more
applicable to these redmen than we
of later centuries have believed!
For a great anthropologist, man
who studies the history of races, mas

dams own blood-brothers now dwell

which were known as the lndies
during the life of Columbus.
