l.. Frank, each with party of support
ers, last night, the fight for the speaker
ship is on full swing, and 1t !. etrayS signs
OF a fight between CLARK and Heinze as
to who shall dictate the second senator.
Until yesterday. sentiment among the
arriving legislators was decidedly IN ia
vor of Corbett on the surface. but there
was strong undercurrent for Maciln-
Miss, and his stock went up with jump
on the arrival of HeinZe last night His
friends make all kinds of claims, even
saying he will have 81 of the AZ fusion
members in the house.
The MacGinniss men openly charge
that Charlie Clark has been trying to
use money in Corbett's interest during
the last few days, but they brought such
pressure to bear that he was compelled
to dcsist.
what argument was used?" asked an
Inter Mountain correspondent.
when man wants anything so bad
w as Clark wants the senatOrship. and
another man has the power to prevent
him from getting it, you can imagine
what argument would be used,' was the
significant answer.
Another MacGinnis man said that
Clark had no sure thing, and had better
be good or he would not be elected.
HAS not he been pretty good to the
boys already?" was asked.
He had better be damned good IRON
now on if he wants anything, SAID the
practical politician.
