A PECULIAR SITUATION

/ Upon the eve of the battle, 1t
has not yet been determined wheth-
er the coming session of the legis-
lature is an adjourned or regular
session. This is a question over
which there has been and is likely
p be much jangling, since a great
deal depends upon the decision
Which is reached. The courts will
probably be called upon to decide
the question, since only a point of
law Is to be decided.
N Upon the decision will depend
largely what part Marion county 's
representative, w. T. Smith is to
play in the coming session. Mr..
Smith was elected to fill the unex-
pred term of the late DR.. J. II.
Criswell, and If it is determined
That this is only an adjourned ses-
sion, then 1t is presumed that Mr. q.
Smith will fill the vacancies on the
committees, made by the death OF
Dr.. Criswell. The old organization
81 the house will be retained, with
the exception of Speaker Thompson,
Who is now serving as secretary OF
state.
E II this be an adjourned session,
= has been held, that no new
measures can be introduced. All,
br nearly all of the bills introduced
At the last session have been passed
npon by the committees SO there
temadns little for Mr.. Smith to do,
but to vote on the measures as they
hall come up.
q Upon the other hand, IL 1t is de.
tided that this is to be a regular
session, then complete organiza-
ton of the house. will be made,
new bills will be introduced and
new committees appointed. In
mis- event Mr.. Smith may be able
R take a more active part in the
session.
& All of the legislators occupy rath-
or peculiar positions, but that OF
Mr. Smith is exceptionally peculiar

the department would respond. Then
he sent riot call to test the effl-
