Mr.. A. j. Field said it was the first
time he had ever heard it suggested
that there was possibility of any
one other than Democrat getting on

Mr.. Alf A. Thompson said he was
in favor of the resolution, but he
wanted it referred to a comnitte and
so framed as to overcome the ObJec-
tons that had been urged against It,

and passed without opposition. The
