Call the roll.
There is said to be quorum of United
States senatorial candidates in the city,
although no one can state positively.
Until the number of candidates is known
it will be impossible to tell whether or not
q quorum is present, but the roll should be
called for the convenience of the legisla-
tors.
Three healthy, vigorous candidates were
added to the arrivals yesterday, in the per-
sons Of Ex-Governor Ordway, G.. A. NJ.
Spencer and George H. Walsh.
They came surrounded by a
number of members and as the crowd
alighted from the train and moved toward
the Sheridan house the candidates who
were on the ground were wondering how
effectually their rivals had 'sworked' tie
train.
Ex-Governor Ordway has lost no flesh in
the canvass and looms up as imposing and
attractive as at the start. With his clear
black eyes watching every movement of
the politicians and his silvery hair shaking
above the heads of the crowd, it is not
necessary for him to engage a brass band
to attract attention. However, it is under
stood that he too, has band wagon which
is now rattling along beside those of Muir,
johnson, Winship and the others.
CA. NJ. Spencer, of Walsh county, who
was candidate before the state conven-
tion for the congressional nomination and
whose political aspirations have been con-
tinuing in their upward fight since first
they were touched off by the whisperings
of ambition, came in. You will know him
by his sturdy physique, fierce dark beard
and tireless pleasantly. He is after one
of the senatorships and will remain until
the referee renders his decision.
Representative Walsh also belongs to the
majestic phalanx and with his ministerial
burnsides and mild blue eyes is not slow
in winning the confidence of those about
him. He has come as state representa-
tive ana would not feel offended if he
should depart United States senator.
Twenty-One members of the legislature
arrived and among them were several old
timers, whose faces are familiar to those
who have witnessed the legislative pro-
ceedings of the past. One of these is DR..
Swanston of Ramsey county, the accom-
plished Scandinavian disciple of Escu-
lapius who during the last session of the
territorial legislature made it lively for
those interested in railroad legislation.
Aside from being member of the famous
Helena excursion party which started at
peace with the world and returned with
scalping knives for the instigators Of the
handicapping telegram, he was the father
of the railroad law passed last winter and
was one Of the liveliest of the law-making
force.
The hurley cyclone from Richland coun-
faced c0lleaguois r. N. Ink, and they are
putting the McCumber senatorial brand
on every sOlOn who comes within the
reach of their lassOO. If they can send p.
]. McC Cnmber to the United States senate
they will be as happy and as jubilant a
pair of song and dance artists as ever re-
turned from contest.
yonder, with a pair Of mischievious black
eyes and an artistic indifference in his
"gait" is Representative Buchanan Of Sar-
gent county. and he is doing as little wor-
rylng as any man in the thrOng.
The speakership contest was given re-
newed life by the arrival Of D. B. Well
face to face with Il. N. Stevens in one Of
the most exciting episodes of the grand
free for all political tournament.
George w. Lilly, who will be remem.
bered as one of the young men who dal-
lied with the boom in Bismarck, and who
has become one of the leaders in McIn-
Of that county and will play his part in
the contests soon to be.
rs A.C, Nedrud, the man who has become
somewhat famous as stthe man who
knocked out John Satterlund" in the 10Th
district, put in an appearance yesterday.
He is Of the classic mould of Norsmen with
the frail and intelligent physique of the
student, and will be an industrious men,
ber of the house.
Representative Wickham of Morton
county, as aggressive and pugnaciOus
young man as ever came out of the west,
If appearances are to be relied upon
dropped in among the statesmen and al
though it looked as though he would start
row before he had brushed up against
them fifteen minutes, he passed the day
quietly and retired in good order. Mr.
Wickham is relied upon to furnish little
of the combative spice of the session.
Adding the names of those who arrived
yesterday, the following is a complete list
of the members now in the city:

Judson La Moure, Pembina.
Roger Allin. Walsh.
