INAUGURAL CEREMONIES
BUSY, BUT QUIET.
The Senate Organized and Ready to
Transact Business

1t was 1926 O'Clock when the
Father of the Senate" B. F. Lang
ford of San Joaquin. assembled to the
Presidents chair, and after consulting
with Secretary Frank ]. Brandon, al
lowed his glance to roam around the
chamber for limited period, and then
! brought the miniature sledge down up
on the miniature anvil.
THE hour Of II o'clock having ar
rived" said Senator Langford, Gin the
absence of the President of the Senate
Lieutenant Governor Jeter) it devolves
upon me to call to order the thirty
third session of the Senate Of the State
of California. The Senate will be in
order"
1t was twenty-five minutes past II
o'clock when SUPERIOR Judge ]. w.
Hughes of this city put in an appear
ance, and on him the Senate waited.
Upon Judge Hughes devolved the duty
of administering the oath of office to
the Senators-elect, and to convene the
session without his presence meant to
kill time until he arrived. So it hap
pened that Judge Hughes arrival and
marks took place at 1925 o'clock in
vides.
ROOM FOR MORE.
While the lobby was filed there was
no crush as in years gone by, and ladies
in any considerable number were con-
spicuous by their absence. A half
dozen nodding plumes on new winter
hats We're scattered about the rear
seats, but that was all. The gallery
showed a fringe of faces-very young
faces, most Of them-but there was
room for many more and still there
would have been no crowd
AN EARNEST INVOCATION.
Then the Senators settled down in
their places and the serious work of
the session was introduced by the Chap
lain of the thirty second session, Rev.
C. L. Mel. Dr. Mel offered a powerful
invocation, asking divine guidance for
the ship of State, and for blessings up
on the Senators who had assembled as
the servants of the people, to make new
laws and modify old ones.
SENATORS-EL SWEAR.
Then Senator Langford, who by the
way, made an ideal presiding officer,
ordered Secretary Brandon to call the
roll of hold-over Senators, and it was
found that every oId-liner was in his
place.
The roll of the Senators-elect was
next in order, and all except Judge John
F. Davis of Amador answered here
when their names were called. The
new ones are: Senators Ashe, Bettman,

Organized Yesterday.

Duckworth Steps Down and Out
Inaugural.

I DuckwortI, standing in the Speakers
| bers of the Assembly Of 1897, and at the
| Speaker of that session. After the first
astonishing comprehension of what the
man was doing, several members tried
| the Chief Clerks evident intention to
hold the house down until he had fin
| ished his say-but they were utterly
| powerless. Duckworth had them at his
mercy and disregarding all motions. ap-
peals and protests, badgered them as a
terrier would worry doomed rat. But
the rockets red glare was soon over
and Duckworth, theatrical from start
and when his successor took his desk,
| passed down and out unnoticed, with
| few to bid him god-speed from the hall
where he had once been a peer of his
| fellow-me1nbers.
ORGANIZATION AFFECTED.
The election of Speaker Howard E..
| Wright was accomplished without OPP
position or discussion, and there was
evident on all sides most kindly feel
| ing for the presiding officer Of the
| thirty-third session. Mr.. Wright will
be assisted and upheld by his fellow
! members and antagonized by no one.
| After the Speaker had taken the oath
of office, organization progressed,
though not without interruption, and
| it was not until the evening session that
the list of officials was completed.
PRINTING BILL TO-DAY.
| Untold inconvenience has already
| been experienced on account of the
printing muddle, now historical. To
obviate this so far as possible a bill
was prepared in caucus and introduced
last evening by Grove L. Johnson, ap-
propriating 100000 for immediate ne
Printer to employ the help of outside
offices at his discretion. The bill was
read the first time under a suspension
Of rules and made special order for
this morning.
WILL SUPPORT MCKINLEY.
The Assembly lost no time before
making known to the country its at
titude on the ratification of the treaty
of peace. Belshaw had the honor of
offering the joint resolution, given in
full elsewhere, in which California
Congressman and Senators are ex-
p1icitly enjoined and instructed to sup
port the Presidents action. This will
be considered this morning, and there
is no doubt Of the full concurrence of
both houses.
INAUGURAL CEREMONIES.
The requisite committees from Sen
ate and Assembly have been appointed
to take charge Of the ceremonies of the
inaugural Of Governor Gage to take
place tomorrow. Money was appropri-
ated and everything will doubtless be
done duly and in order, and in a man
ner BETTING the important occasion.
