Organization Caucus May Not Be Held Until Saturday
Bowman May Not Be in Race For Speaker-Inter-
.esting Information From State Capitol. 7

Bismarck y. D.. Dec. 2S. Pre-
liminaries to the organization OF the
statelegislature developed slowly today,
despite the fact that this was. the date
set for the opening of the Nonpartisan
league caucus of the members- elect of
the house of representatives.
Under call issued by Howard
Wood, Of Deering. Ward county, league
members were expected to go into
caucus this morning, but storm early
this week delayed the members, and
it Is now doubtful IL the caucus will be
convened until Saturday.
Organization work, 1t is explained,
will be the only feature considered in
the first. caucus, but the caucus sys-
tenn will be maintained throughout the
session to act upon administration
measures. This refers to both the
house and senate. and early league ar
rivals are confident they have COM
pleted control of the senate despite
the fact, that only eighteen members
of that body Of forty nine were elected
as leaguers.
More than seven hold-ever senators
have pledged themselves to the league
program" said a prominent league
leader today. r.--.--.4-.--. r - -- = -..
IL THAT is true then the leaguers
dominate every branch OF the state
government. and there is no indication
on the surface that the senate control

cause. 49,. .s.a...rE

race for that post. He hasn't reached
Bismarck yet, but numerous leaguers
here declare their belief that Bowman
will not be a candidate when the lines
finally are drawn in the leagues
caucus. ..-r
In explanation Of their belief that
Bowman will not make the speaker
ship race, leaguers cite the fact that
he is a member of the leagues famous
big five' executive committee and It
has heretofore been the leagusrS
policy to refrain from pushing any of
ing candidates for any office. To that
policy. heretofore consistently adhered
to, much of the leagues remarkable
political success has been credited.
THE caucus no doubt will develop
material for a speaker, and the best
fitted man for that work, will be
chosen by the members" said

ton.
