Republicans Have Both branches.

BISMARCK, N. d., Jan. 3-Chief interest
in the session OF the North Dakota leeisla-
ture, which convened to-day. csnters in
sne contas. for the successor to United
States Senator Casey. The republicans
have clear majority. and the result
hinges on the decision of ths party caucus.
Caucuses for officers for both houses were
held this morning, but tho opponents of
Senator Casey hope to secure his defeat by
preventing a cauous on tho senatorship.
1t is alleged thst some of them made over
tutes to the democrats and called atten-
tion to the matter to Cleveland. The
latter, il is said. refused to have ANYTHING
TO do with it. saying the party could not
afford to run the risk of being charged
with corruption aud advising the election
of AS clean u republican us possible. 1t
seems likely Casey will be elected in the
end.
The house organized with George Walsh
as speaker. j. s. Hamilton chief clerk, and
the full set OF officers as chosen by the re-
publican caucus this morning. The senate
organized also in accordance with the
caucus.

ALBANY, Jan. 2.-The legislature con-
vened at noon. VIM. Sulzer. of New York,
was made speaker Of the house. Gov.
Flowers message was read in both houses
and adjournment taken for the week. The
governors statement of finances showed
that the state owed $3.50. 900 and had bal.
ance of $1.7O1, ,487 in the treasury. The
Buffalo strike cost the state $192,647. Com
menting on the strike the governor said
any man had = right to quit work and
peacet ully persuade Others to do likewise.

vent Others from working must be pie

seled employers that desire for increased
wages ia proper aspiration of all en-
ployes and should be met i'll spirit of fair
ness. The governor commends as a remedy
for the sweat shop system, that a registry
that none be allowed to work in unhealthy
quarters.
Tho message recommends a carefully
guarded compulsory education law; the
utilization OF power at the locks on the
Erie canal for the generation Of electricity
to propel canal boats. power to be furnished
bv the state: the consideration of legsla-
tion against the coal lcombinalion; rigid en-
actment against election bribery; govern
ment supervision of quarantine abroad,
leaving local quarantine to the states.
Democratic sentiment as gathered here
from leading democrats of the state of New
York indicates desire almost unanimous
for the election of Edward Murphy, Jr, as
United States senator. The predicted oppo-
sition does not materialize. From ali that
can be gathered by listening to converss-
tions in different hotels and other public
places, Mr.. Murphy is the choice by an
overwhelming majority.

dering out and the whole fury of the ele-
ments seeming to be let loose in a magnif-
cent storm. Then by a pressure of the
heel upon the pedal a reverse effect is pro-
duced, and the storm gradually subsidies as
one after another of the stops is put on,
dying away in the distance as the echo Or
gan in the other end Of the hall takes up
the refrain, and it finally ceases altogether.
The organ is very powerful, being built
on a large and generous scale, but the use
of pneumatic tubular chests and electricity
renders it as easy to play as the best OF pi-
amos. The echo organ is operated by 300
feet OF electric cable. The extreme height
of the exterior Is 3s feet. and the width and
depth "a feet md rs feet respectively.
There are five different pressures for the sup
ply of wind power, each of them supplied
by a different electric motor. The case is
built of staf-that peculiar all embracing
plaster substitute for stone, iron and wood
that has made the Worlds fair possible
without ~bankrupting the nation. All of
the great instrument with the exception of
some Of the reeds of the solo organ is of
American workmanship. Those reeds came
from France, where they know how to
make the best in the world.

A Mighty MUSIC BOX.

The Great organ estiva1 Hall at the
Worlds Fair.
1t is expected that the erection Of the
great organ in Festival hall at the Worlds
fair in Chicago will be finished in a few
days, and orgsSists will then have a chance
of demonstrating their skill upon n of
the most perfect instruments ever made,
n which includes oil the latest improve
ments and some unique features never be-
fore introduced. The trials at the factory
are said to have proved it to be of excep-
tional b%rilliancy, and the fingers of lots of
we'll known musicians have for some time
been itching to manipulate it's keys. Many
of them have already been invited to do so,
and Guilmant and Saint-Saens of Paris
and Eddy, Warren, Buck, Browne, Whit
ney and other eminent Americans are ex-
pected to give r~ecitals before the fair closes.
The organ has 1901 pipes, 50 stops, IA
combination p~istons, 10 couplers and many
other mechanical accessions, including a So
foot diapason and q grand crescendo for all
the registers. This latter pedal is unique
and very effective. BY a slight pressure of
the toe of the boot the softest stop on the
organ is brought into use, then the next
loudest, and SO on till the full harmonious
flood has been released, tubas, trumpets,
clarions pealing forth, the diapason thun-
