SPEAKERSHIP FIGHT
E. A. Merritt, Jr., Gives Out
Statement at New York.
A SWEEPING REFORMATION TO CONE
Insurance Inquiry Revelations Have
Caused Deep Distrust Part of
Public ana Remedial LeGis-
Iation Is Necessary.

NEW YORK, Dec. 27.-E. A. Mer-
rift, Jr., candidate for the Republican
nomination for speaker Of the New
York state assembly, gave out state
ment on TIE speakership fight last
night in which he said that 1.-The Hig-
gins leaders thought they could create
a new board Of control with Governor
Higgins as dictator or boss. Mr.. Mer-
ritt's statement is appended:
Many inquire why contest. proper
enough in the Republican state conven-
ton, should be brought into the organi-
cation OF the state assembly. The
reason is plain An orderly and decent
administration Of affairs in the assem-
bly, and the passage of wholesome legis-
lation this winter in that body would
be to some extent to the credit of the
Republican organization. The facts
elected in the course of the insurance
investigation have caused deep distrust
on the part of the public, and the need
for appropriate legislation is evident.
'Whatever of virtue there may be is
desired to go to the credit of Governor
Higgins. The Higgins leaders Al
bridge Hendricks. Kilburn Franchot
and others think to establish u new
board of control with the governor as
leader, dictator OF boss, There Is to be
no room for anybody who has hereto
fore, done the work of the Republican
party in the legislature Under either
the leadership Of former Governor
Odeli or of Senator Platt
1.-THE change is designed to be as
sweeping as the reorganization of the
Scottish church. historically known as
the New Plan,
