IN KANSAS Doth During an Exciting Scene GOOD Itepub-lean- s and Populists Organize. Kansas bas a dual house of representatives. It came about In this way : Tbe members at 1 :30. When the secretary of stale of the appeared with a IM of the members House a great hubbub arose, and a hot discussion as to whom should be named In tbe roll. Suddenly the secretary of state deserted the chair and announced that he would retain the roll In bis possession until such time at he was Informed that there was a House before which be could lay 1L Then each side strove to elect a temporary The Republicans succeeded In speaker. In the getting their man, J. J. Cubblson chair first, although there wae no attention paid to conventional rules for such election. The hubbub aud babel of voioee continued and Increased, but Mr. Cubblson did not wait bad for order. A roll of the mctubers-elec- t been prepared aud certified to by the retiring Republican secretary of state, and Mr. Cubblson laid It before the Republican side. Tbe Republicans rose en masse while Thomas Blaine, a notary public of Topeka, administered tbe oath. Tbe oath was administered to the officers by Supreme Court Commissioner Strong. This was accomplished before the Populists could barely draw breath. The Republican House was organized with the following officers: Speaker George L. Douglass; speaker pre tern., E. W. Hjcb; chief clerk, Frank L. C. C. Clevlnger. Brown; sergeant-at-armTbe Populist House organized with these officers: Speaker J. M. Dunsmore; speaker pro tcin., R. H. Semple; chief clerk, Ben C. Rich; Ben F. Dick. sergeant-at-armDuring tbe turmoil and excitement attending the organization of the two houses, the Democrats held aloof and enjoyed tbe fun without being responsible for any of tbe trouble. The House Is composed of 123 members. Of these, or a majority of one, hold certificates of election from tha State meme Canvassing Board. These bers participated In tbe organisation of tbe Republican House, and tbe Republicans, for this reason, claim their organization to be tbe legal and tbe only legal one. Tbe PopullsU number and are, therefore, in the minority. They claim that those members a hose seats are contested have no right to participate In tbe preliminary proceedings, or to pass upon tbelr own qualifications. Thus they claim that tbe Republican organization Is Illegal, and that theirs is tbe only constitutional House. Both bouses remained In session all nlgbt. They declare tbelr Intention to freeze each other out. The governor bas as yet recognized neither House. He received the committee from both bouses, but Informed them that he had no communication to transmit to the body which sent them to him. He wiU doubtless recognize the Populist Hojse, and will order the adjutant general to assist the sergeant-at-arm- s In maintaining order. That necessarily Implies the removal of tbe Republicans from Representative hall. They say they will not respect tbe state militia and wiU withdraw quietly to another hall where they will maintain tbelr organization.
