COL. BLISS MAY
Be SPEAKER Of
THE NEXT HOUSE

Afte rthe Republicans today recovered
| somewhat from the knockout administer
ed 70 them by Hon. James II. Higgins
yesterday, they began talking over the
senatorial question and the speakership
OF the next house.
The Republican leaders claimed TO be
certain that they would organize the next
house.
Some persons who discussed the situa-
ton thought the speakership fight might
indicate as IL developed the outcome or
the senatorial controversy.
The defeat of Speaker Dennis. who
went down with his Republican associ-
ates IN this city, and the promotion OF
Deputy Speaker Palmer 10 the state SEN
ate leaves an open field among the Re-
publ,cans for the important place as
speaker
Today the name most frequently sug-
gested as likely TO be Boss Braytons
choice for speaker was that OF Col. Zenas
w. Bliss OF Cranston, who has for sew
eral years been chairman OF thecommit-
tee on finance
Mr.. Bliss is very friendly with the New
port delegation, which is the most infiu-
entail one on the Republican side OF the
house, and is declared 10 be favorable TO
the candidacy OF Senator Wetmore.
IL was suggested this morning in inde-
pendent circles that the Democrats In the
house could by casting their votes Tor
one OF the three Independents elected 10
the house secure the control OF the COM
mittees.
Such course would insure the appoint
ment OF d committee on special legisla-
tion that would report important meas
ures sent to It, and would not pigeonhole
all reform measures at the command or
Boss Brayton.
II Col. Bliss should be elected speaker,
he would undoubtedly deal with the Dem
ocrats as his Republican predecessors
have under the orders of Boss Brayton,
and give as few Democrats as possible
any committee appointments.
An Independent speaker would be "a
boon that the people would appreciate.
