New Times Entrance dally Stand d Herald n at Hota Behult Central, 1o on sale ‘s Ne The COLT'S D M AND BRYAN | The Boston Globe ers by declaring on its first page, un- der a scare-head, that the death of Renator Colt of Rhode Island mu“‘ make Gov. Bryan of Nebraska prosi- dent of the United States, It 15 related that the election laws | of Rhode Island dircct that a speclal | electlon must be called to choose & successor to the senator. It is assum- ed Gov. Flynn will call it for the same day as the regular November election. | The man elected will sit in the senate | that muat elect the vice-president to| become president should there be no | cholce in the electoral college and the | house, Benator Colt was a eandidate for re-election and with him in the senate - were 51 Republicans, “Should his| successor be a Democrat, very probable, for Rhode Island elect- | ed a Democratic governor last time, the senate will consist of 50 Republi- cans, 44 Democrats and two Farmer- Labor men,” says the Globe. [ Then comes the erux of the hypo- thesis: arties 1ts read- “Phe assumption has been, in the event of no presidential choice being made in the electoral college or the house, that two titular Republic: Ladd and Trazier of North Dakota, with La Follette and the two Iarmer- Labor men, Shipstead and Mag- nus Johnson, would vote for Gov, rather than for Gen. Dawes. The senate under the constitution must choose the vice-president from the two receiving the largest num- ber of votes In the electoral col- lege. “Before Mr. Colt's death this division would have made the senate tied, 48 to 45. With a Democrat in Colt's seat it would give 49 for Bryan and 47 for Dawes."” | Another possibility more favora- | ble to the Republicans is that Senator Hiram Johnson may be compelled to | remain in the Coolidge fold in Cali- | fornia. Hiram has been silent as to | his intention, although some of his campaign managers have come out for La Follette. Johnson is due to| succeed Colt by right of seniority as| chairman of the senate committee on immigration, an important post to the Californian. Should he bolt his party, | it ia stated, he wonld forfeit this right, which he is not expected to do.

The councilman, in enunciating his observations to the Herald, said he was a poor hand at the literary stuff, but 1f he could do so would like noth- ing better than to unbosom himself about this track-walking business; he opined he would go a little further in his observations than the editorial | went, giving the Impression asbestos paper would be required for the im- print of the type.

Then there is FPcggy Joyce disrcgarding recent additions to her name—algo is through with some prince married quite recently.

It's all wrong, but how is it going to be stop- ped without eliminating divorces al- together?

The most recent “alibi” is that of a minister known throughout the parish, who Is quoted as having ex- plained that he thought “knickers' and a woman's gatment bearing the popular name of one of the country’'s statesmen during his lifetime were one and the same thing and that he was opposed to women and girls ap- pearing in public so attired. The police jupy met Saturday for the first time since the adoption of the ordinance and it was rescinded before a monster petition requesting its repeal could be presented.

The chicken-coop was bigger than the filvver and had one large window but T couldn't open It wide enough to drive the filvver in, even with the top down, With the saw and axe I cut out a large space and then made one door big enough to fit the space that was just cut, 1 put four hinges at the top of the door and placed them in posi- tion so that the door would open up like an unbrella, The family looked at the door and the way it opened and says perhaps it would be better to dig a tunnel Into the ground, drive in, and have an elevator to carry the filvver up inside the chicken coop. I told them I didn't like the elevator idea because if the elevator should get stuck while un- derground, I would be llable to miss a few meals and maybe some undertak- ing firm would have a customer. 1 made a shelf to hold spare spark- plugs and an extra gallon of gas that I always keep on hand for the gaso- line tank, when it goes dry. 1 also put up a hook to hang the empty coal-hod which I use when pouring water in the radiator. When I got through working 1 practiced driving in and backing out. I forgot to pick up some of the nails 1 had dropped, but the filvver picked up enough to make me changeé three tires. The chicken-coop is so narrow that when T get the fiivver in T can hardly get myself out. If I don't put on weight I'll manage to get myself out without making an extra door or win- dow to crawl through. The expense of fixing over the coop wasn't much, but I guess I'll hafta get some new fenders and a couple of headlights as the ones on the flivver shows the results of the driving prac- tice. After I paint the chicken-coop and repair the roof se it won't leak, T will have a swell losking garage that can | be used every day of the year, includ- ing holidaye.
