The Florida Legislature Organized.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla, April s.-The senate and
house organized yesterday by the election Of
officers nominated in the Democratic caucus.
Governor Fleming's biennial message will be
submitted to-day. A Democratic caucus will
probably be called in few days on the senate
rial question. Senator Calls supporters are in
large majority, but the opposition claim he
cannot secure the necessary two-th1rds vote in
Joint caucus. Some of Calls supporters prefer
that no caucus be called, thus throwing the
election into the legislature direct, where a
majority of both houses would elect. Senator
B. F. Rogers, president of the state Farmers
alliance, is working hard to get an Alliance
caucus called for the purpose of passing an
anti-Call resolution. The Gail men in the ALI
ance are opposing him vigorously.
