DOVER, Jan. 19-The interest manifested
in the election Of a state treasurer ana
state auditor eclipsed the interest mani
tested in the organization of the two
houses two weeks ago. Every train
| brought prominent politicians and
hungry candidates into town.
By noon an active canvass was being
made among the members and every man
had his pull" upon the bewildered M.
q. A who wss buttonholed at every
turn he made by some one who had a
friend be wanted to make custodian Of
the riches OF the little Commonwealth,
or one who wanted a friend inducted into
Office whose business It would be to scan
the figures of the custodian of the state s
wealth and see that its interest did not
suffer on account OF his shortcomings.
In short 1t was field day for the politi
clans and everything was legitimate
game.
