~ltlle ROCK, Jan. l.-MemDerS of
mouse and senate are now coming in
a. rush, with about an equal number
OF former members of the general as
sembly who have an interest in the
organization Of the new body. Both
branches Of the assembly will be eau
cuslng Saturday., when all members
are expected to be on the scene, but
several OF the candidates have been
outspoken against such procedure,
and their supporters may not enter
into it,
Senators ]. Monroe Smith and Ell
mer J. Lundy, candidate for the presi-
dency OF the senate, have their head
quarters in the Hotel Marion running
full blast, and are receiving many
callers. Senator Harry Harris, Sena-
tor Elmer Owen and several former
members Of the senate are assisting
in the Smith headquarters. In the
headquarters of Senator Lundy are
Senators Calvert, Futrell, Garrett,
Moore, Mccall and others.
There are about three applicants for
minor positions in the two branches,
and the lobby of the Hotel Marion at
night is a busy scene. Few Of the old
timers are missed, for once a man or
woman secures an appointive or elect
i've position in the general assembly
they always return to ask again. Sew
eral OF the old stand-bys have been
eliminated by the Grim Reaper, but
two have sprung up where there was
one before This time there are sew
erela members who been in terms past
served as janitors, or in the distant
past, as pages. One boy, serving as
page until he could no longer make
the age limit, is back, this time att
ing as campaign manager for young
err brother. This family promises an
endless chain, for there are still sew
eral youngsters at home.
The temporary organization OF both
branches will be completed on Satur-
day, at which time the result of eau
cuses, if they are held, will be appar-
ent. The speakership race is, as yet,
anybody's race.
Candidates for the various places
in the senate and house, as shown TO-
day, follow:
