Action of the Democratic mem !
bers several weeks ago in nominal
ing the presiding officers and clerks /
OF the two Houses made the night /
before the organization Of the Leg |
stature, last night, an unusually !
quiet affair. There was practically |
no action on the part Of either the
Democrats. who Will be in control
of both branches of the Legislature,
or the Republicans who have a
representation in both
branches.
Senator Charles D. Murphy. Of
Harrington. who has been nominal
ed for president. protein, OF the
Senate. was at the Hotel Richard
son for a short time, but as few Sem
ators made their appearance he left
for his home at Harrington early I'm
the evening. Representative Samuel
y. Culver. of Delmar, caucus nominee
for Speaker was present during the
evening, but no attempt was made
10 hold a caucus because OF the few
Democratic members who reported.
II was thought that the Democrats
would nominate the attorneys for
each House but no action was taken
along that line.
The indications were that Henry
Ridgely and James II. Hughes would
probably be nominated for attor-
neys.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ]. D. Bush
and several other Republican mem
bers OF the Senate and House arrived
In Dover shortly after o'clock last
night but no attempt was made by
The Republicans to hold a caucus.
There was an absence OF leaders
Of both parties. and it was the quiet
Est might before" Dover ever has
known.
