I dred or more official positions In the girt of the 'l'\Venty.tourth session of the Nebrnskn leglslatur One of these days Is Sunday , but It Is not a long shot to guess that the Gabbath hum In hotel corridors will swell n. loudly ns on any other d3Y. The election of November Iait was won anlt lost , and the lIeverlll contestanls are now sawing off the game. A number of the more sagacious ones arc also sawing wood. Tom Majors Is here making his headquarters at the Wind. sort anti there arc rUlTIors afloat to the slart- ling errect that hD sllll considers himself In the senatorial race. At all events there Is n secret caucus held ! at his rooms every night and nt times one ! or two are held dur- Ing the day. Majors does not move around a great deal during his visits to Lincoln of late but executes the most of his wire pull. Ing by special messenger. A story originated : yesterday . amt It Is now prelly ) generally conflrmed that the harrowing expectancy Incident upon waltlnFt for the 16th of January to ballot for United States LenatOr was to be cut short by n caucus - . CUE New Year's evo. Should the result bo , favorable to the hopes of lion. John 111. Thurston , It Is stated , a committeD will be sent 10 Omaha to present him the senatorship as a New Year's present. But this same story was afitat shortly after the November h election , about the time the Lancaster county delegation gave their wrlllen pledges to sup- port him In the legislature. It seems to have lost nothing or authenticity since Its first promulgntlon. WHO'LL HULE TIlE 1I0USE ? Dut the greatest amount or political calorIc Is generated over the contest for speaker. At present It Is not a case ' or the field against any one stnrter. C. I. . Hlchards or lIebron and J. C. Burch or Wymore arc In the lead. , J. A. DavIes or Cass , Randolph lIIcNltl of fled Cloud John Brady of Kearney and W. O. Chapman of Crete each have theIr roll ow- Ing. Contingent upon the election of Durch or Richards hangs the fate or three cllldidates : for clerk of the house Mr. Gettis oC Grand Island , Charley Hlgg of Beatrice and P. II. Wilson of Plallsmouth. For president pro tem ot the senate there are four distinct candidates Orlando Teffl of Cass , John C. Watson or Otoo J. H. Pope of Saline and J. C. F. McKesson or Lancaster. There Is a story freely circulated. however that thl ! latter would reel amply satisfied with the chairmanship of the judiciary corn- mlllee. McKesson Is nn old member and his claims whatever they may be . will hardly go unrecognIzed. For secretary of the senate there Is but one candidate exhibiting strength sufficient to withstand any demoralization oC his torces. That Is Tim Sedgwick present secretary of the republican state central committee. Prac- tically there Is no opposition tG him. Lincoln has two candidates for sergeant-at- arms Carder and McDonald while Tyler or North Platte sits back , contentedly holding , & the winning trumps. ' , For postmaster of the house there are a flock or candidates and they tread fast upon the heels or every Incoming delegation oC any size. So far 1111' A. C. WrIght , recordIng clerk In the office of Governor Crounso Is the most frequently mentioned In hotel lob- bies. bies.RESTS RESTS WITH THE DUHI.INGTON. It Is possible that some of the active politIcal - Ical manIpulators In the legislature imagine thnl they , are In some way contributing to - . tIm election or a spealter. IC they do be. lIeve this however they are decidedly unsophisticated - sophisticated . In reality the D. & 111. rail- way Is now deciding the question or the speakershlp. That political tramway has ' easily disposed or similar questions In the last. ) and It Is doing the same thing today. It It sheds Its favoring smile on lUcliards Mr. Durch will be obliged to give way ; IC upon Burch , lIIr. Richards will retire grace- fully and In geol order. But it I Is doubt- ful Ir bo will bo In a frame or mind suitable to acknowledgment or the boasted statement that there Is a government of the people , for the people and by the people. The , . , hand of the D. & 1\ [ . Is also shown quite - _ plainly In. the struggle for the office of presi- dent pro tern of the senate . Colonel Ager who bas been acting nnnuni pass distributor and chief lubricator Is at' ' his old post and so are nearly all the old 0'1 roomers and professlonllt boodlemen. There has been no change In the nrrnngc- meats for the inauguration ceremonies next Thursday.
