COnventon-Liquor Question Preciptates
Hot Argument.

NEWPORT NEWS, Va, July 29-Al-
though it was decided last night TO nom
mate Wilbur P. Kent, of Wythe coun-
". for governor, there was great
sentiment in the Republican State con-
vention for c. Bascom Slemp, and at
this mornings session it seemed possible
that there would be a stampede for him,
despite his expressed desire not TO be
named.
The mention Of his name in the read
ing of the platform created a storm Of
applause to which he was forced TO re-
spond in a brief speech. Royal Cabeu,
Of Richmond. and Alvah Martin were
also enthusiastically cheered.
The decision to nominate Kent came
after telegram had been received from
Alfred P. Gillespie stating that he could
not possibly accept abe nomination.
The convention did not get down to
business until after II O'Clock today.
After the adoption of the report Of the
committees on permanent organization
and credentials had been adopted, there
being no real contests, the report or
the platform committee was read. The
important plankS as read by the chair

Of the fee system and the paying OF stip-

Finally an amendment was offered,
after a spirited discussion, as follows:

The price varies but little. and anv

contract therefore, Is likely to prevent
