Rivalry for Gubernatorial Honora—
Chat About Candidates.
Amid all the fiurry'and rush of mu-
nicipal politics, state and senatorial
contests are not lost sight of. as may he
conclude .from the visit of Speaker
Michael enealy of Stamford. to this
city. Tuesday Several times lately Mr.
Keacaiy has been in the city and each
time has hobnobbed with the political
wiseacres who assemble at the Hart
ford Club. the sumptuous apartments
of. which seem particularly attractive
to the republican managers. Tuesday
Mr. Kcnealy went to the club, accom-
panied by Representative E. J. Lake.
and a corriab was held. Knowing ones
any that Mr. Kenealy's friends have
him In line for gubernatorial honors.
but he is said to deny the impeach-
ment. His boom in this connection rrtns
athwart the aspirations of lieutenant-
Governor Henry Roberts. who seeks
promotion to Governor Chamberlain's
honors. So when Mr. Konealy comes
to Hartford. Mr. Roberts at once gets
into touch with those who have talked
with the astute Speaker. who Is known
far and wide as a loyal follower of
“Sam" Feesenden.
What the lieutenant-governor hears
Is not always sweet to-hla oath. and
such was the case, reguding Mr.

The function of the Bureau Is as he
lows:
" . To obtain and kit records of
m the pub-
of the county, relative to courses of
special devices of educational procod~
are in vogue, etc.
"2. To furnish
formal application to any member or
members of the Association
may be possible and practicable. of
visits made to the schools of the
county by the teachers 0f the county.
"4. It In the sense of the Associa-
tion that its members aid and assist
the Bureau in the berfOrmanco of
their above mentioned duties by
prompt response to such inquiries as
the Bureanmay institute."
in» carrying out Its work, the Bu-
reau has divided the question blanks
for principals Into three heads. as fol-
lows: Form A. Buildings, Play
Grounds, Equipment. etc.': Form B.
Organisation and Management; Form
C The Curriculum. 0! itheae Forum
A and B are nnishcd.1Form C. now
nearing completion, will soon be
forthcoming. "Teachera' Form C" is
anger way, and others hpvc been plan-
ne .
The Bureau has carved out a large
work, and one that seems without pro
cedent. It Is believed that the Bu-
reau can become a distinct stimulus
to the educational thought and effort
In the county: that it will aid in the
development of a sentiment of kni-
shlp and brotherhood in its work;
that it can become, in time. the ca-
rator and custodian of record» of con-
alderable mine; that. ii will thereby
become a timesaver in such as may
be Interested in the InVeatigatlon of
the. local school problem and condi-
tions. '

as the style and arrangement of build

vice: the grading boars social ques
tions school exhibitions and enter-
tainments work allotted do teachers
promotions. diaciplinets. prizes 'and
awards, and the characteristics.
Regarded merely from the view-
point of the valrrc of, aving all this
data in a convenient fo m. the collec-
tion of information by the Bureau is
advantageous; but It is assumed that
there Is a still more. important object
behind II, and that is to bring out the
strong and wehlt points In the system
in such a way )that. each school may
see what Is good in its work 'and what
needs to be fortified. .
Beat of 111111s111‘n1111811‘11 Is an indica
Illon that the hooi principals of Fair
field County are displaying an coco
gy and seal in. their work to attain the
best results and to lift the standard 01
all the schools. That is the point
which will most Impress those whose
relations to the school are those of
cltlaens who maintain them and par-
ents who desire that their children
shall have the belt advantages that
modern educational methods can do-
rise.
