Early Caucus For Senator !?

1t is said on the very best authority,
that the Democratic caucus for United
States Senator will take place next
Tuesday night. According to the plan
as originally mapped out, the caucus
was to have taken place about Mon
day, the 18th of this month. The
change was decided upon, it is said,
in order that the excitement attendant
upon the naming of candidate for
Senator might be in some degree
abated when the Legislature assem-
bles for business.

A Good Librarian.

1t is hoped that there will be no
change made in the office of State
librarian. The present incubment,
Mrs. Jeffers. has made a capable and
efficient officer and has brought order
out of chaos. The position by the
appointment of woman has been
taken out of politics to the betterment
of the office. By her good manage
ment Mrs. Jeffers has saved the State
several thousand dollars, and has
given her entire time to the duties of
the office. A change at this time
would be disastrous to the State and
especially to the State library. Mrs.
Jeffers' appointment was not a county
one and she does not owe it to Anne
Arundel. She was appointed by Gov
ernor Lowndes and reappointed by
Governor Smith. Her work as State
librarian during the past eight years
is sufficient recommendation for her
reappointment.

as a great festival by the young peo-
pie. Services were held today in st.

THE SLATE GOES THROUGH.
Spencer c. Jones Named As
President of Senate And
George Y. Everhart
Speaker of
House.

The democratic members of this leg
islature in caucus last night agreed
upon the following officers for both
houses, which were endorsed at the
session this morning:
President-Col. Spencer @. Jones.
of Montgomery county.
Secertary-Robert Moss, of Anne
Arundel county.
Journal Clerk-Alfred Ritter. of
Frederick county.

ed around the State House all day yes
terday and at night and made known
their wants.
The other change effected was
that of Llewelyn Kerr, of Wicomioo
county, who had been previously
agreed upon as journal clerk of the
House, but was transferred TO the
Senate as chief engrossing clerk, to
satisfy the Prince Georges county
democrats, who demanded that the
position of journal clerk of the House,
which had been held for two sessions
by Mr. Frederick Sasscer, should again
be awarded to man from that county.
The Senate caucus selected the fol
lowing two ladies as the official stem
ograpers of that body: Miss Catherine
Mcdonnell and Miss Virginia Bond
Maupin, both of, Baltimore. Miss
Mcdonnell is well known in Annapo-
lis. She has held the position of
Senate stenographer at two previous
sessions Mrs. Maupin is daughter

~-~oo~o
while Senator Henry NJ. McColough
received a like honor from the Re-
publicans Upon Senator Jones' elec-
tion he was escorted to the chair and
made short speech of acknowledg-
ment, referring particularly to the
fact that the Legislature met for the
first time in the new halls.
There is no mistaking the fact that
there is decided Smith atmosphere
about the State House at present.
The strong Rayner agitation, which
had its effect upon the minds OF the
members some weeks ago, is not Sc
noticeable and only few of the
county members declare themselves in
his favor. 1t is believed, however,
that no selection will be made on the
first ballot. Mr.. Joshua W. Miles, OF
Somerset county, is very favorably
spoken of for the honor in case the
choice falls to neither of the leading
candidates and has been growing in
strength within the last few days.
PROTESTS PILED.
During the swearing in the member.
of the House this morning two protests
were filed by Democrats against Repub
lican members elected from Charlie:
county. Representative Garner of St.Ma
