TRENTON. Jan. 14.-Spice was
sprinkled on the Assembly proceed
ings yesterday afternoon when AS
semblyman Frank Foley. of Essex
county, took the floor TO nominate
Mark f. Phillips as clerk of the
House. 1t seemed to be known to
many that the silver tongued young
man from Newark was primed for a
great effort. He was. After eX-
of the one who he was about TO name
Mr.. Foley added: THE voice of a
Caruso and the articulation of a Tet-
razini are requisites for clerk of
the Assembly, and these qualifica-
lions are possessed in a marked de-
gree by Mr.. Phillips, whom 1 have
the honor to present to you for the
office that he filled with such credit
and distinction last year
Mr.. Phillips blusned from nose to
neck as Mr.. Foley's words of eulogs
reached his ears, but the friendly
voice of the legislative correspon-
dents treasured him. and he stood up
bravely.
Assemblyman Hates, of Camden.
who had been selected to present the
name of Upton S. Jeffreys in a com
plimentary way as the Republican
favorite son for the clerkship, was SO
dazed by the brilliancy of the Foley
outburst that he couldn't say all the
good things he meant to have said of
his friend Upton. And the case of
rattles was further emphasized dur
ing the voting on the Office. Assem-
blyman Dalrymple, Republican, of
Passaic county, shouted Phillips
when his name was called. Later,
he requested that his vote be changed
from Phillips and recorded for JEFF
| freys.
Il was so mystified and bewildered
by Mr.. Foley's Caruso talk that
| didn't know how I was voting,

FOLEY'S ORATORY DAZZL ED
DALRYMPLE'S VOTING EYE
So He Subconsciousy Cast His Ballot for Phps-And Then
Promptly Changed 1t to Jeffreys

frankly admitted the Passaic Assem-
blyman in explaining his error
The enlivened Punch and Judy ex-
hibition between Majority Leader
Joseph NJ. Branegan and the guiding
spirit Of the minority, Emerson l..
Richards. was decidedly entertaining.
Richards started early with a fusil-
lade of amendments to rules and pro-
cedure. explaining with each amend
ment that it was the very best that
ever happened, while Branegan was
as often on his feet pointing out that
Richards was IN gross error, and that
the rules, as favored by the Demo-
Gratis. couldn't be equaled in a life
time. Branegan won every time.
This majority dominancy in the
House differed In some important re-
spects from the course pursued in the
Senate, where Republican amend
ments to rules were accepted by the
Democrats. This was particularly
noticeable in the amendment requir-
ing that the appropriation bill be
printed and distributed at least one
week before passage.
From the divergence of action it
was thought by many that the steer
ing committee apparatus was out of
gear, but whether the House or Sen
ate machinery was disarranged re-
mains a matter of doubt.
Fl. Otto Wittpenn. it was pointed
out by some, Is surely worth more
than $4,000 year to the United
States government, if he works half
as hard in the cause of Uncle Sam
as he did at the New Jersey State
capital yesterday. There wasn't any
| place that Wittpenn wasn't, and his
ten assemblymen were positively af-
| fiicted with hook worm when it came
to question of doing things uhtil
otto" as they Familiarity termed
him, had been consulted. And there
was surely lots of consulting with
otto"
Across in the upper house Senator
Esan and Wittpenn were together
with the high sign of understanding.
