Governor and Legislature May Agree

One OF the propositions wnicn the chief mag
istrate and perhaps majority of the legislature hope
TO agree is county option. Yet the outcome is not
certainty by any means; and it noticed that the
temporary speaker, discussing important matters
that have not been settled by other legislatures"
did not mention county option. AS Mr. Gerdes is
leader among the democrats and considered a
strong possibility for speaker his omission caused
comment.
In the consultations among democratic members
OF the house, preliminary to organization the
bers in favor Of county option secured from the
iorty agreement to give county option bill the
rght-Of-way whenever the "drys" got ready to-push
it, to leave it exclusively in the hands OF its friends
for amendment and generally to let the ant-quor
group have full possession of the bill.
At stage of the negotiations it looked very
promising for combination Of dry" democrats and
republicans to organize the two houses The psyche
logical elements hand, only needing a compe-
tent hand TO gather them up and make them work;
but the chance passed. II will always stand the
credit OF the republicans that with exceptions
the temptation did not carry them away. They very
generally agreed the democrats should have the fruits
Of their legislative victory and be allowed do the
best they can.
