They had a big thunder storm In and around Springfield, on Sunday last that did an immense amount of damage.

A number of buildings were struck and one man, a Selectman of the town of Hatfield, was killed. It would seem that October was rather a late month for destructive thunder storms. A Nebraska youth has recently won fame by climbing Pike's Peak in self-manufactured flivver, costing less than 100, and assembled out of old junk. It probably will not be long before the flivver will be the household pet and manufactured out of old cast-off material, When that timo comes Ford will be out of a job. "Uncle Joe" Cannon, who retires to private life on tha fourth of March- next, after forty-six years in the National" house of representatives, says lie ha's had enough of public life, but it the age of 82 he feels a little lonesome bejng out of a job.

He retires to private life at his own volition, but to use his own language, "I am-just bit sorry now." Perhaps two years hence may see him back on his old job The incoming General Assembly will see more new members than have in thai body.for many, years.

Kennedy. The Republican Conventions were held.in Providence on Wednesday, and with thc exception of the gubernatorial nomination the utmost harmony prevailed. Chairman Burlingame called the State Convention to order and Ira Letts of Providence was made chairman. In i opening speech he referred to thc 'candidacy of Governor liceckman and the name thc Newportcr was received with tumultuous applause. The committee on resolutions was appointed, and after some consideration reported the platform which was unanimously adopted.

The platform pledges support to the splendid administration of President Harding, calls attention to the excellent tariff bill passed by the Republican Congress, praises, the record of the Administration in'the State, urge's highway In Rhode Island, commends the improvements in the State Institutions, and urges enforcement of the prohibitory laws. When nominations for United States Senator were called for, William P. Sheffield of Newport placed in nomination ex-Governor R. Livingston Beeckman. There were three nominations for Governor, Emery J.

San Souci, Harold J. Gross and Am- bxose E. Kennedy. On the first ballot Kennedy received 128, Gross. 120, and San Souci 28.

The name of Governor San Souci was then withdrawn in favor of Colonel Gross and the second ballot gave him a majority, being. Gross 161, Kennedy 116, and San Souci The convention then voted to make the nomination unanimous. All the other nominations were made without opposition.

As was expected Governor Beeckman has been named as the Republican candidate for United States Senator from Rhode Island, but the expectancy does not make the satisfaction any the less. Governor Beeckman has succesfully filled every ore the important offices that he has held, including many terms in the Gubernatorial chair. He has always been active in the interests of Newport, rot only -while he was in office, but also in his private capacity as a citizen of Newport. He is in closs touch with President Harding anj with the Republican administration at Washington, and he undoubtedly he of great service to the many government interests that are of such great importance to Newport.
