By II. l.. ID. McAllister, Staff Cor
respondent.)

Santa Fe, Jan. "a somewhat un-
expected turn was given to the speak
ership race today when it became
known that Jose r. Gonzales, of Dona
Ana county, is being quietly urged tor
the honor and has received quite a
number of pledges of support. The
significant feature of this develop
ment Is that Mr.. Gonzales is from the
same county as Maj. W. H. II. Llewel-
lyn, an avowed candidate for speaker.
For the past several days there has
been a persistent rumor in Santa he
that a Spanish American would be
put forward for the speakership, and
that in the event the republican eau
Gus should fail to nominate a candi-
date of that race, coalition of repub-
lican and democratic Spanish -Ameri-
can members of the house would be
effected and an independent organiza-
ton of that body brought about, I'm
til today. however, the particular
Spanish American to be urged for the
speakership has been a matter of
doubt, and the mention of the name
of Mr.. Gonzales is the first definite
step towards action in that direction.
There are too few members. and
what is more to the point, there are
too few party leaders in Santa Fe at
present to make any prediction as to
the outcome of the speakership race
at this time possible. BY Sunday
night, however perhaps better line
on the situation may be had Just at
this time the situation is still more or
less chaotic.
Llewellyn on Ground.
Major Llewellyn arrived in santa
Fe Friday night and has made his
headquarters at the De Vargas hotel.
He is actively in the fight and does
not take any stock in the rumors That
his colleague will oppose his nomina-
ton and election as speaker. He be-
lieves that these rumors are due to
the excessive zeal of Mr. Gonzales
friends and that Mr. Gonzales himself
has no part in their circulation and
will not be a party to their consum-
nation.
An interesting feature of the situa-
ton is that Major Llewellyn recently
received the unanimous endorsement
of the Dona Ana county republican
central committee for the speakership
in a set of highly eulogistic resolu-
tions adopted at meeting at which
Mr.. Gonzales was present.
At the present time Mr.. Gonzales
cannot be said to be an active candi-
date for speaker So far as is known
he has solicited no votes and has not
waged anything resembling cam
paign for the office. His friends de-
clare, however that when it is made
clear to him that there is demand
for Spanish American in the chair
of the presiding officer and that the
votes are his for the asking. he
will consent to the use of his name.

day of Holm o. Bursum, twice defeat
