WY - AhSRANAAStAAAsJ
A strange conversation was heard
in the streets Of Bristol between two
prominent citizens of the town. which
ran as follows:
There seems TO be a stir in some
quarters over a change in postmast-
ers OF the town"
The other said: We'll. there are
four good reasons why the present
postmaster should not be changed:
Il. That the present postmaster
has given perfect satisfaction ana
that the location is ideal.
"2. That the present postmaster
has never won or lost around the
poker table.
IS. That the present postmaster
has never 'peddled booze in the town
that he is now serving as postmas-
ter.
Il. That the patrons of the Office
do not intend for. this change to be
made"

as to candidates for elective as well
as appolntiye office, but the trouble
never proceeded so far that the form
OF close relationship, IL not the
warm and cordial substance, did not
exist. Now that the campaign is
about to start, he said that these two
leaders would reach an amicable I'M
derstanding and work together in the
harness for the party's success. In
fact, he said, that influences were at
work to bring this about, and Just as
soon as Watson arrived back from Eu-
rope, which would be in couple of
weeks, there would be a meeting be-
tween Watson and Chiffon either here
or in New York.
A good deal OF the misunderstanding
about the relations of the two chiefs,

months, busy with launching a great

These agents Of his, and not Watson
directly, had neither been discreet
not diplomatic in connection with
Senator Chiffon in mapping and carry

he did not think anything had been
done of such magnitude so far as af-

Watson and Chiffon, that could not be
corrected. He expressed confidence
that when Watson returns from Eu-

the old-time entente cordiale would be
promptly restored to the happy salts
