SENATE SESSION
At TWO O'CLOCK
Noon Hour Assembling Sus-
pended by New'Plan.

In obedience to the resolutions offered
by Senator Bailey. of Texas, and adopted
last week, the United States Senate to-
day will trample ruthlessly on a custom
of such antiquity that no one about
Washington knows when it was not OBJ
served. Forsaking the noon hour as the
time OF assembling. the solons will do
committee work, write letters. visit the
departments, partake of luncheon and al
o'clock commence the days session.
According to the Bailey resolution, each
regular daily session hereafter must be-
gin at that hour.
Two O'Clock as the meeting hour of
the Senate has been regularly suggested
by Senator Bailey for several years He
failed to impress his ideas upon his col
leagues until a few days ago.
More time for committee work." Is
Senator Baileys plea. with committee
meetings at II o'clock and the convenin;
hour of the Senate at r." he contends,
there is much shirking OF important
committee deliberation." Senators arrive
late at the Capitol and the committee
meetings suffer as result. BY meeting
at O'Clock the Senate can stretch its
sessions along toward Is, and most of the
time late in the afternoon. that ordina-
rily is wasted, can be saved. 1t Is point
ed out that much of the time between
noon and 2 o'clock has been wasted here
tofore, and that a 2 o'clock session will
tend to shorten the dawdlng morning
hour period. and perhaps cause the Sen
ate to abandon the antiquated method
of introducing bills, petitions, and reso-
lutions through personal recognition of
the Chair, instead of bund.ing them into
a basket on the clerks desk. according to
the time-saving practice that is followed
in the House

DEADLOCK IN COLORADO :
DEPLORED BY DEMOCRATS
Legislature May Be Summoned Into Another Special
Session by Gov Shafroth

its salary allowance, and therefore 1t is
believed there is no way In which the
members of the assembly could serve fur
ther this year on other than their own
private resources.
Having viewed the situation from every
standpoint yesterday, the Colorado NOM
bers in Congress and other interested In
the matter agreed that there was the
strongest probability that Simon Guggen-
helm, Republican. would be the sole
representative of COLORADO in the Senate
throughout the Sixty-second Congress.
and that the whole Senatorial struggle
would be thrown into the Colorado pri-
martes, to be tried out for the first time
next year.
In that contest before the people, both
the successor to the late Senator Hughes
and to Senator Guggenheim, the
Incumbent Of a chair. are to be chosen
for Recommendation to the legislature.
Whether the failure Of the present Demo-
cratic legislature both to elect Senator
and to fulfil many of the party platform
pledges will have an effect on the politic-
al complexion OF the State next year Is
a problem which the politicians Of both
parties are inclined to scrutinise with
some care
The Washington herald., 1911-05-08

Democrats of the House and Senate
expressed much disappointment yester-
day over the failure of the legislature OF
Colorado to elect Senator and con-
corning the probability that the seat m
the Senate made vacant by the death or
Charles ]. Hughes would remain empty
for two years. The only chance of fill
ing the vacancy now lies in possible
determination of Gov. Shafroth to sum-
mon the legislature back into special
session during the coming summer for
the main purpose of passing several
Democratic platform measures which
were completely ignored In the heat Of
the contest over whether Robert w.
Speer or some other Democrat should be
sent to Washington.
There are said to be recorded In Colo
RADIO interviews of the governor, In which
he has expressed a declaration to put the
LEGISLATORS again at work II they ad-
journed without passing q bank guaran-
tee law. railroad control law. a meas
ure to provide a new registration sys-
tenn for primaries, headless ballot, and
certain other features Of legislation
which the Democrats promised the peo-
pie when they were elected. This de-
termination. however. appears not to be
definitely fixed. and therefore 1t Is for
the future deliberations Of Gov. Shafroth
and his advisers to decide.
A fact which makes the situation look
exceedingly blue to the Democratic mem
bers Of the Senate, who were expecting
IN addition to their force, lies IN cir,

Theron Aiken Wants New Congress.
sfOnal Directory Printed,

Representative Theron Aiken. of the
twenty-fifth New York district. has
Served notice on the Joint Committee on
Printing at the Capitol that he must be
classed as a Progressive Republican. &"
and not as a Democrat nor even a
Republican" in the Forthcoming issue
of the Congressional Directory
There has been considerable delay in
the issuance of the directory for the
present session, and the inadvertance Of
not observing Mr.. Aiken's wishes in re-
gard to designating his political affilia-
tions is said to have been one OF the
causes. The New York Congressman ran
on ticket which nobody has been able
to give definite name. apparently, and
for the reason, in the biographical notice
in the directory. he was gradually shifted
into being a Democrat
Mr.. Aiken protests that he does not
belong to that party. and that even IL an
entire new edition of the directory must
be published, he must stand in it as a
Progressive Republican.

Harry Wilmington. thirty years old, a
baker employed by a downtown hotel,
was arrested yesterday afternoon about
o'clock and locked up in the First pre-
cinct station house, charged with as
saulting Warren Cunningham, a negro.
who is also employed there as an as
sistant.
The police say that Cunningham be-
came surly at being ordered about by
Wilmington. and, when he resented It..
Wilmington called him names. This led
to a heated argument which ended in
Wilmington drawing a revolver and
shooting at the negro. At the station
house, Wilmington said he lived at 12s

ployed as a fancy baker for more than
year.

National secularist union was Mr.. Nor

he pointed out the aim of the body to

at such remnants of church recognition as
the printing of the chaplains' prayers in

festival days for religious observance,
and the employment Of chaplains in all
institutions supported by public taxes. The

that between 1900 and 1000 copies of the

thorization of statute A local printing
firm contends that a resolution authoriz-
