POLITICAL GUESSING AT WESTERLY
What May Happen Now That Senator Louis w. Arnold De- cIines Renomination- -Fortieth Annual CIambaze of Fat Mems AssOciaton-Popular Program at Band Con- cert-Funeral of Frederick E. Nugent.

The announcement that Louis W. Arnold, who has served Westerly in the senate of Rhode Island for many years, and has proven time and again his invincibility at the polls, was not to be a candidate for renominatiOn, has served as free burning fuel under the local political pot. It is under
 stood that Senator ArnOld's withdraw al from active party politics was not due to any fear on his part that he could not be reelected, for there is no doubt but he is the strongest re- publican in Westerly. He is a mem Der of the state board of control and supply for which he receives a sub stantial salary, and, according to the decision of Governor BeeclIman, there is opposition to a member of the gen eral assembly holding any salaried office that is within the gift of the governor with the advice and consent of the senate. It is evident that Sena- tor Arnold prefers the office that car ries with it honor and substantial emolument, rather than to be senator with a salary barely sufficient to pay the expenses of state senator.
 The retirement of Senator Arnold means that Albert II. Langworthy senior representative, who has en- dured a long period of watchful wait ing, will be the candidate to succeed
Norwich bulletin., 1916-08-25

Senator Arnold and that Representa- tive Francis c. HasweU will become senior representative. There is no doubt but the part Of the republican program will be approved when the republicans meet in caucus, as it has long been the party program
 The logical candidate to complete the legislative delegation from West erly is Maurice W. Flynn, president of the Westerly town council who has been a valued member of the council for many years. Though born in Wa terfOrd, Conn, he came to Westerly, when quite yOUng, learned the stone cutters trade and for a dozen or more years has been iu the granite business on his own account. He has always been a thorough republican, interested in party affairs, and noted for his square dealing and honesty in politics, as well as in his business. He has the support not only of the great ma jority of his party, but also of demo- Crats who realize the folly of voting the democratic ticket in republican Westerly. In fact he has the support of all except the very few. who want the office for themselves, or friends who can give political return. Unless all signs fail, the next deiega ton from Westerly to the Rhode Island general assembly will be comprised of Sena- tor Albert H. LangWOrthy, Represen- tative Francis c. Hasweu and Repre- sentative Maurice ". Flynn.

tions of many centuries. The capture of such a booty resounded through Europe. Spain became for q time the wealthiest, as well as the most pow erful, nation of Europe, and this was ascribed to the gold of Peru.
 But Peru held another treasure much more valuable for the nations of Europe than the golden booty of Pig arro. Carrying the potato to Europe was an event of much more profund significance in relation to the subse- quent history of the world than send ing the Inca gold to the coffers of Spain.
