TO PRESIDE IN
LEGISLATURE
Battle Between Two Factions In
House at Cheyenne
.SENATORSHiP AT STAKE
Results of Contest viii Determine
Possession of Seat in Upper
House Of Congress.

Cheyenne, Jan. 21.-A riot broke
out in the House Of Representatives
of the Wyoming Legislature yester-
day when Speaker Pratt and Speaker
Pro TEN Wood both claimed the right
to preside. A fight between Messrs.
Pratt and Wood was stopped by other
members of the House. The disorder
lasted fully three-quarters of an hour
and included two separate encounters
between Pratt and Wood The situa-
tion was ended when leaders of the
two factions announced an agree
ment to let the question of authority
rest until afternoon, A member who
interfered was kicked In the stomach
The immediate occasion of the
trouble was the attempt of Speaker
Martin L. Pratt to call to the chair F.
c. Hunter. republican, the democrats
insisting the place could go only to
the speaker pro TEN, democrat. An
appeal had been taken from the speak
ers ruling against an offer by demo
Gratis of substitute committees for
those he had submitted and in which
he himself held the balance of power
upon the committees on rules and on
elections. The latter committee is to
pass upon the right of three republi-
cans to hold seats from Uinta county.
and upon the outcome of these con-
tests depends largely the chances of
United States Senator Warren for re-
election.
Upon converting at o'clock the
House was called to order by Speak
er Pratt A motion was at once car
ried to adjourn until today. This
leaves tn confirmation of Pratt's
committees still unsettled.
Speaker Pratt is a progressive re-
publican, elected by scant democra-
tic majority. His stand on the re-
election of Speaker Warren has been
in dispute between republicans and
democrats. 1t is asserted by the dem
ocrats that the speaker is attempting
to name committees of two republi-
cans, two democrats and himself.

fair, has, however, brought forth
many expressions of sympathy for
the young man who in an evil moment
went astray. 1t is another OF the
many instances which are brought to
Hight in nearly every city of the coun-
try where men, lin thoughtless mo-
ments, commit acts which bring dis
grace not only upon. themselves but
1all to whom they are connected.
The way of rectitude is described
as a narrow path in contrast to the
broad way which leads to de:truc-
ton. This thoroughfare, however, is
studded with lighthouses and the well
wishers Of humanity do everything
possible to prevent i.houghtless ones
from striking the rocks. But not
withstanding the beacons, fog bells
and all other devices some persist in
steering toward breakers. The re-
suit is sad.
In the case of the unfortunate
young man referred to above 1t can
only be said, he went wrong, as thous-
ands Of others have done. The amount
involved in his case was trif1ing, but 1T
was an act regarded as high--handed
since the days of Dick Turpin-he had
robbed the mail entrusted to his care,
He did not place his hands on half
million sums as in the case of others
who are from time to time arralgned
for crime.
This one false step lis not to be re-
garded as the index of the future life
of the young man. At the termina-
ton of his period of confinement ne
will have an opportunity to rise above
the results of his act He is still
young, and may live down the effects
of his early departure from the safe
road of life, after having paid the
exorbitant fees in the school OF eX-
perience.
