TIL T. ILLINOI ISSUE
The Legislature

The 47th General Assembly convenes at Springfield at
high noon Wednesday, January 4th. The Senate will
be presided by Lieutenant Governor Oglesby In the
House, Secretary of State Rose will preside until tenn
pOrary organization is effected.
AS early Saturday of this week members of the egs
lature will be arriving upon the The three four
days Immediately preceding the day of converting will be
busy They will be taken up with conferences
cuses with tn eaimporant and momenous work of shap
ing up the Reorganization" for the entire session.
The ordinary layman does not understand the full force
Of that term Organization applied to the legislature
Those who uninitiated and unacquanted with egs
latve methods know very little of the many that
made wholly in and under the surface and which
affect tremendously the shaping Of legislation for the whole
session For example, the organization of the House of
Representatives (Which will be made up Of the successful
candidate for speaker and his followng) absolutely
trolls the Of legislation in the House from
finish It says who shall be the speaker who shall be chair
Of committees and who shall be the committees
who shall constitute the steering committees what rules
shall govern the House; and preposerous may
in times past has been able to say what bills shall be
ported out Of committee and given chance for life the
floor of the House.
The Power of 'The Organization
So the organization to say the speaker and his
following becomes Of tremendous Importance in legisa
tive session There candidates for speaker
both the Republican and Democratic sides The
bers Of both leading political parties will spend the first
noon
in conferences canvassng the chances of the various cand
dates sometimes making trades and agreements and in
every possible seeking to elect their favore speaker
All of this will go ''under the surface and the public
will know very little about it until Wednesday,
January 4h when the lines will be drawn in the open the
nominations made and the speaker who is in large part
to destiny Of the House for the coming session
will be elected
On Monday, January 2nd most of the representatives
will arrive in the Capitol and become established in their
hotel quarters in their in private homes will be-
gin to get acquainted with their felowmembers and to
acquire the latest information the speakership which
will be the allasorbing topic.
Tuesday both political parties will probably hold their
and the candidate Of each party for the speaker
ship will be selected.
