There is also to be a spirited battle
in the coming campaign for control
Of the state legislature. The house.

be filed. while there are seventeen
state senators to be elected. The
senate is the battle-ground. The re-
publicans have fifteen holdovers and
the democrats three. with eighteen
members necessary for control. This
means the republicans have only
three to put over for control. whereas
the democrats have fifteen to put
over Both parties feel that with
control of the senate there is con-
troll of all legislation. This condi-
ton has existed three or four times
