for river and hsrbor improvements, m
stead Of thu specific appropriations IN

Wants to Forget 1t.

The Barre Times, whose support OF
Charles w. Gates was at all times con
sistent and honorable, is not particular
" happy in its endeavors to extricatt
the Washington county politicians from
their situation, arrived at through
courses exactly opposite in character
The Times says;
'The preference of the great majority
of the delegates in the convention, un-
Influenced by all other considerations
was for Gates, and even if Dillingham;
had Joined the four avowed candidates
for governor in their efforts to prevent
Gates nomination it could not have been
stopped"
The Herald doubts this, and its doubt
is based on first-hand impressions de-
rived from Mr.. Gates himself Had he
made public request at any time that
his name should not be mentioned, lest
Senator Dillingham; be embarrassed in
convention and thereafter. it would not
have been mentioned. Had he told his
friends in Washington and Franklin
counties 20 "cut il ont" even on thu
day Of the convention, his wishes would
have been respected.

had agreed to accept the nomination 50
DAYS before. as The Times and its read

"IIence II cannot BE- said that the Dill
