Won Election-Hall a aign s't c
r
For president pro teni of the
senate there are many eligibles, al
though none so far is out in the
open. C. I'etrus Peterson of Lan
caster, wlj.o was the floor leader on
the republican side of the house
last session and is recognized as
having all the qualification of a suc
cessful leader, has, been mentioned
. and appears to be strong so far. The
senate, however, is going to be
composed this year of a whole ,lo.
of good timber and should be a
strong body, it they can get away
from the atmotlhere of the last two
sessions, where good legislation
suffered because of factional difficul
ties between the two I4ranch.es of
the legislative bodies.
Chance for Republican.
Republicans have a chance to do
great things when the session con
venes. With an almost unanimoils
majority, good wholesome legisla
tion can be enacted and should be
enacted if the party wants to con
tinue in power. With such strong
men of legislative experience as
will constitute the upper body there
will be no excuse for dilatory tactics
or lack of wholesome legislative ac
tion. From the house of the last ses
sion comes over to the senate on
- the republican side, C. Petrus Peter
son of Lancaster, -B. J. A-mlay of
Nance, Perry Reed of Hamilton.
Dennis Cronin of Holt and Fred
Johnson of Adams, while many oft
the old members of the last and tor
jner sessions will be back, among
them B. K. Bushee of Kimball, J.
W, Hammond of Cambridge, W. V.
Hoagland of North Platte, J. F.
Cordeal of McCook, Richard F.
Nal of Nemaha and Charles L.
Saunders of Omaha.
Job for the Gavel.
"However, the democrats will have
some experienced members in the
upper body, in fact all four demo
crats are men with legislative knowl
edge. John F. Moriarty and John
"M. Tanner of Douglas and Charles
A. Chappel of Minden have served
in the senate before and W. J. Tay
lor of Custer will transfer his war
bonnet to ther upper body, which he
lias so often declared to be com
. posed of highbrows and such other
things.
Whether the scrappy gentleman
. from Custer will be able to accus
tom himself to the esthetic and more
or less highbrow senate, remains to
be seen. But just think what the
presiding officer faces with Taylor
at one end of the senate, Moriarty
at the other end and Denny Cronin
immediately in front.
Tyrol People Ask for Food.
Berne. Switzerland, Nov. 8. The
population of Tyrol and Vorarlberg,

meantime the federal council is
studvme means to extend aid as
soon as possible to the two districts.

ocratic state treasurer, who will re
tire from office at the end of the
Phut because he was not a candidate.
