Missouri legislature.

At noon yesterday the Missouri
General Assembly convened at
Jefferson City. James H. Hull of
Platte County, will be Speaker of
the House. o. D. Gray of Boone Co.,
will be the Chief Clerk. Francis
M. Wilson will be President pro tenn
of the Senate. Monroe County and
the 18th Senatorial District will be
ably and honestly represented by
Sen, R. S. McClintic and James P.
Boyd. 1t is supposed that Hadley
in his last message will advocate
many things which Democrats have
advocated for years and Hadley
knows that the Democratic leelsla-
ture will pass and that Gov. Major
will approve. Heretofore the Dem
ocratic legislature could pass bills
good for the people but when they
got up to Hadley, he would veto
them, Now Missouri's officers are
