ten Democrats and six Republicans.
But the trouble over the ten men,
bers from Silver Bow county remains
lust as 1t did last year. Twenty-nine
Republicans met In the Electric Light
Hall when State Auditor Kinney called
the roll, m which he included tho five
Republican contestants from Silver
Bow county.
All the Democratic members OF the
House, including the five democratic
claimants from Silver Bow met in
another hall and organized by electing
Harry Courley Speaker and a full list
of officers. The Republican House
also elected officers.
just after noon the committee from
the Democratic House waited on the
Senate and Governor with the infor-
nation that the House Of Representa-
tiyes had organized and were ready
for business.
Governor Toole and the Senate each
recognized this organization. This
afternoon the Republican House sent
message to the Senate that II had
organized and was ready for business.
This message by n vote OF ten to SIX
was rejected, and the clerk was directed
to make no note of 1t on his minutes.
