MILWAU kEE, May l2.-The supreme
council Of the A. p. A. crossed its session
in this city at 3 clock this morning. and
the last acts were among the most impor-
tant of the weeks work.
The Junior A. P. A. was organized,
which will be under the jurisdiction OF
the supreme council of the United States,
and will reach into Canada and England.
Boys and girls aged from IA to Is will be
eligible to membership. 1t is proposed to
teach the children patriotism. and 1t is
understood that the society will not be
of the ironclad bound order. 1t was also
decided to have a national political
board, to be composed of members from
different states who shall be appointed
by the state councils.
President Traynor will appoint COM
mittee of five II meet with the council
of patriotic organizations at Washington.
December 10. 1885, to take under consid-
Grafton the question of the campaign of
1896.
1t is the intention to unity the action
of the various patriotic organizations.
The committee will also have charge OF
the A. z. A. legislation that is to be
urged before congress, incudn the pro-
posed sixteenth amendment, prohibiting
the appropriation of public money for
secular purposes, the citizenship act, etc.
President Traynor said tonight that he
had not yet chosen the men for the WASH
iugton committee, but that he would
probably select Judge George W. Van
Fessen of Tacoma, Allison Stocker of
Denver, A. W. Winter of Tennessee, Sem

THE DELAWARE SENATORSHIP
Speculation as to Whether Governor Watson
Will Appoint

WASHINGTON, May 12.-The proba-
bility tnat Governor Watson of Delaware
will appoint q senator to succeed Senator
Higgins is considered sufficiently strong
in political circles here to cause general
speculation as to what would be the
chance of his being seated. The history
of the senate 6oes not furnish parallel
case to that which would be presented in
case OF such action by the Delaware gov
ernor, but it is more like the case OF two
years ago. presented from the states of
Wyoming, Montana and Washington, than
any other. IL would be similar to those
in so far as it would involve the govern
or's right to appoint when the legislature
has failed TO elect, but it would develop
other questions, important among which
would be the right Of the governor to act
in the capacity OF state senator while
filling the executive office.
The cases of the northwestern states
also differ from that which would be pre-
sented from Delaware lin that there was
no counter claim ant in any OF them.
