the reply came that 1t would have to wait

Two Delaware Legislatures.

Dover, Del. Jan. 5-The Democratic
members of the Legislature mustered 10
votes for their house caucus last night,
the absentee being Robert H.. Wilson
of Kent, who is sick. The Kent county
members participated. The caucus re-
suited in the selection of Emery B. Rig
gin for speaker. This is pronounced
defeat for the Salisbury element Of the
party and the advocates Of free silver.
The Republicans from Kent and Sussex,
who will today be denied admission >
the house. also named officers at a eau
Gus held in the Hotel Richardson. They
named speaker, DIR. T. c. Moore; clerk.
Edgar T. Hastings; reading clerk,
Thomas l.. Brown: sergeant farms.
Joshua Clayton; chaplain, Rev. r. IL.
Adams. The Democratic senators
made overtures to George Fisher Peary,
ore of the Republican ''hold-ov
members. Offering him the reading clerk
ard sergeant alarms if he will par
ticipate in the organization. Peary.
however. wants the speakership or
nothing. He left the Republican caucus
at IL O'Clock He may return, and thens
there is a possibility of two legisla-
lures today. Otherwise the outcome is
difficult TO conjecture.

LEGAL COMPLICATIONS ARISE,
Another TangIe in the Organization Of City
Government at Lawrence.

Lawrence, Mass, Jan. illegal COM
plications will result from the joint
convention of the city government
Monday. The Democrats have control
by one vote. the aldermen being even
~ divided. Both branches voted, Mon
day morning. to hold a joint conven-
ton. but the time for it was omitted.
The order was adopted in concurrence
The Republican aldermen refused to
go to the joint convention on the
grounds that the time was not speci-
fed. The Republicans named Friday
night. and the Democrats recon-
mended that the convention be held at
once, but the Republicans would not
consent.
The aldermen and councilmen sat in
respective chambers for almost an
hour, and finally the Democratic alder
men. and 10 Democratic and eight Re-
publican councilmen went to the joint
con ention. Mayor Junkins, Alder
men Low. Currier and Bedell refused
to sit in the convention. The Repub-
lican councilmen tried to break UP the
convention but were not successful
and left the room in a body. These
Democrats elected a city clerk, treas
urer, superintendent of streets and
several other officials.
The Republicans claim the conven-
ton was Illegal and will make an ap-
peal to the courts. The Democrats
say the convention was legal and will
attempt to install the officials chosen.
City Solicitor Bell believes the action
OF the Democracy contrary to law.
The Democrats will not give in. be-
cause they have a majority of the gov
eminent. Mayor Junkins is Repub-
lican and his party will fight to the
bitter end.
In 1873. the city government was
placed in similar plight. The council
was a tie. but the Democrats were in
the majority in joint convention. and
the Republicans refused to attend the
convention and carried the case to the
supreme court. Judge Wells, who was
on the bench, decided that the council
must go to the convention.

STATE BASE BALL LEAGUE.
The Idea IS Gaining More and More Favor in
the State.

The more it is discussed the more favor
the idea of State base ball league finds
among the supporters of the game In
Maine. There has been evidence during
the, past week or two of slight relaxa-
ton on the. part of our Massachusetts
friends Of the stern determination to
have nothing to do with the Maine cities
under any consideration, and word has
come pretty direct from Boston that IL
Lewiston and Portland will send repre-
sentatives to the annual meeting of the
league. that they will be considered.
This isn't due to any regard for the two
cities named or to any idea of square
treatment. but probably because the
Massachusetts cities are not tumbling
over each other for franchises.
The idea of going up to Boston and
saving to the powers. please do let US
and be good after this and not sass Tim
and Jake or claim that any of us win the
pennant.p doesn't strike the. gentlemen
who are willing to back base ball in this
In fact. when the character and the
standing of the MAiRe supporters of the
game is sontrasssaa dth those so-called
lous. At any rate fully certain that
there will be no. Ding of this sort
done and. and there a not be. Judging
inclined to the opinion that overtures on
our. part won't be necessary. but that re-
mains to be seen.
The success of the Polo League has
great deal There certainly seems no
lack of interest in polo because we don't
venture outside our own borders, and
there Is no good reason why the same
shouldn't prove true of base ball. Argu-
ment that we won't have as strong teams
as we would if a member of the New
England League doesn't appear to hold,
either.
From inquiries that have been made ii
is quite sure that the players would much
prefer to come here than go to Massa-
nhnSaftS a for
that matter there is no reason why we
cannot pay much as we could in the
New England League if affairs were
managed in business way.
1t is understood that a meeting will be
called at Augusta some time this month,
to consider the State league project, and
ii is quite certain that Portland will be
represented. 1t will do no harm to see
what can be done in this respect. and if
the prospects for the State organization
should not appear bright it is not inn
possible that Lewiston and PortlanF
would be welcomed with open arms b
our Massachusetts friends.-PortlanA

BASE BALL NOTES.

Lewiston Sun: The latest in regard
to whether Portland and Lewiston will
be members of the New England league
next season seems to be that if these
two cities beg hard enough they may
be admitted not because they are
wanted but because Massachusetts,
cities are not falling over themselves
applying for New England franchises.
Should Portland and Lewiston beg for
admission to the New England league
they will make a serious mistake, as
they will be largely in the minority and
will be compelled to accept the small
end of everything from the schedule
down: and then again it has been
clearly demonstrated that New Eng
land baseball cannot pay for itself in
the Maine cities.
Lewiston Journal, Jan. 5: Whatever
objections that we may have had in the
past in respect to the formation of
State league Of the Maine base ball
clubs. these are now quite gone, and in
our opinion the only thing to do at to-
nights meeting is to unite for a State
league. 1t is capable of demonstration
that such league can be run with a
daily receipt of about forty dollars. ana
it will be possible so to arrange games
in Lewiston and Portland nearly every
week. 1t is also to be noted that there
is not ball town in the Maine circuit
from which the players cannot reach
their own homes for the Sunday. thus
saving much in expense. We hope to
see good attendance at tonight's meet
ing to push the thing to it's finish.
Lewiston should have number OF rep
at the meeting soon to be
held at Augusta.
