-I PER. 21, 1SS2
J. F. HA J LOBAJT Editor.
Tho Acw Apportionment.
The number of Representatives,
in the next House has been fixed
at three hundred and twenty-five.
This wag the highest number men
Mined in the calculations of the
Superintendent of the Census.
Several were of the opinion that
the Hguse was too large now, with
two hundred and ninety-thrco
members, tind, that instead of in
creasing the size, the number
should be made less. Others
argued that there should be at least
six hundred membeis in our Na
tional Legislature and worked
hard to havo high figures named
in the bill. Under the present re
gime the ratio of representation is
131,000. Under the new it will
be 151,906. The follotfinjr States
are affected:
Gains Arkansas, 1; California,
2; Georgia, 1; Illinois, 1; Iowa, 2;
Kansas, 4; Kentucky,. 1; Massa
chusetts, 1; Michigan, 2; Minne
sota, 1; Mississippi, 1; Missouri, 1;
Nebraska, 2; New York, 1; North
Carolina, 1; Ohio, 1; Pennsyl
vania, 1 ; South Carolina, 2 ; Texas,
5; Virginia, 1; West Virginia, 1,
and Wisconsin 1.
Losses Maine, 1; New Hamp
shire 1, and Vermont 1.
No other States are changed.
It will be noticed that the less
falls on New England. This will
give thirty-Gve new seats in the
next House. Of these the South
will get fifteen, the North twenty;
and those last figures come pretty
near showing how it will affect tho
next House politically.
The Russians always do things
on a largo scalo. In qno of their

otner countries, oecauso it is not
often that there are public scan
dals. Tho occasional glimpses
that are given justify the belief
that there are a thousand times
more corruption in Europp. It is
to be borne in mind that the Eu
ropean press docs not take upon
itself tho functions of an accuser
or grand jury, and that when any
thing is said about rascality, it has
already been proven by tho rep
resentatives of the government
who made the investigation. In
our own land, a considerable part
of tho press is always trying to
prove that the public men on the
other side are great rascals; and
the majority of the accusations
are without foundation.
The noise about South Ameii
tsnn matters wai evidently started
for the purpose of injuring Blaine,
sud the first reports were well cal
culated to effect that object.
Since he commenced to talk back,
affairs present a very different ap-l
pearance, and it now seems as if
those who began the onslaught
would have been better pleased
had they kept silent. .It is un
fortunate that his opponents
should attempt to raise a question
of veracity between him and the
President! It must result badly.
It was long since predicted that
Blaine might be abused into a
nomination, and it begins to look
that way. His enemies could not
aid Hm more materially than bv
keeping him before the public by
their constant onslaughts. It will
naturally force him into tlt6 posi-
tton ot that great element' of the
Repulican party who are opposed
to any third term and the regency
of the Conkling-Casneron-Logau
triumvirate.
Gov. Lee, of Wyoming, reports
that female suffrage in that terri
tory had not broken up families,
and on one occasion husband and
wife one a Democrat, the other a
Republican were candidates for
tho same office, without causing
domestic trouble.
The editor of tho Standard ar
gues that since his paper is Demo
cr.ttic it cannot favor monopolies. !
He says: "If the corporations
v-hich Mr. Villard represents shall
attempt to control Oregon politics
we shall certainly make it warm
for him on that lay out, be it in
the interest of ono or the other
party." This is iair warning to
all the trembling cohorts that rank
beneath the hostile banners:
