The Anaconda standard. [volume] (Anaconda, Mont.) 1889-1970, 1896-11-09
SENATE AND HOUSE
Composition Of The Mex Leglslaiivl
Assembly Of Montana
REPUBLICANS VERY SCARCE
The House ls Overwhelmingly
Democratic While In the senate
the Republicans Have
Bare Plurality.

The Standard presents below the
composition of the state senate and
house of representatives The table is
complete and accurate. except that in
two or three instances the vote Is SO
close that the result is In doubt. AS
for the counties OF Flathead, Granite,
Ravalli and Teton, the Standard pub
fishes the names of the senators who
were elected last Tuesday. There Is
some question whether the gentlemen
who represented these counties In the
last senate are not "hold-overs," and
the seats of Loring, Dingwall. Rick
man and Cooper are likely TO be con-
tested by Ramsdell Sigh. Cooper and
Floweree respectively. There is no
question about Hurd. of Valley. as he
ran again at the polls last Tuesday
without opposition. Politically. II viii
be seen. the senate Is very close. on
| the face Of the returns, as given below,
| II will stand republicans IL: democrats,
| 10; populists two. Should the seats
| referred to be contested, and should
| the contests be decided in favor Of the
| contestants the republicans will turn
| their plurality into a majority over all
In the house of representatives the
| democrats and populists have an over
whelmlng majority. II the democrats
elected on fusion tickets conclude 10
act with the democrats elected on
| straight tickets, the democrats will be
able to organize the house without the
| aid Of the populists Whether this will
| be their line OF action. or whether they
will recognize the pops, remains to be
| seen. II is thought probable that the
| democrats will all get together and
| have things their own way from the
| start.
