,dontion of resolution to make all
members ineligible for any such place.
Senator Cook. who had his eye 90
.Judoeship. and those who wanted other
pfeces Of Die. pretended to think that
senator Dowd was ioking. At any
rate they promptly killed the bill and
proceeded to elect themselves to every
thno in sight. Some Of the members
were more modest than the others and
some incurred tie displeasure OF the
| BIZ Five by display Of some manli-
ness. and were passed by in the dlstri-
| button. However, the following list,
which is incomplete and has been hur
ricdIy prepared, shows that the Seua-
tors took good care OF themselves, and
got about all that was in sight.
| When the Democrats elected the
Railroad Commission, it was provided
that 10 member Of that Legislature
should be elected commissioner. This
was a good precedent and one which
the Fusionists might have followed
with credit to themselves.
Here is the way they sat down to
the first table and helped themselves:
