Continuing, he said: "I think tliat a propositi in will be adopted whkh will increase the pteseiil membership of the house. It Jins been suggested that we nu-1 lhorl.e one member to ever 108,000 In habitants. That seems to be the ratio th it Is In general tavor among the mem- j hers of the committee. This proposition ' wouiu email an increased memuersmp ui from is to 30 members." IT IS announced from Washington that Colonel Russell H. Harrison, the son of1 former President Harrison, serving as an I inspector general of the army at Puerto Rice, who was honorably discharged by) an order of the war department a few days ago, has cabled protesting against dis-1 missal. General Harrison asked that the order he rescinded, at least until he had 1 Mulshed a certain work upon which he is ; 'now engaged and he called upon his I (friends to secure revocation. The appeal j was laid before General Miles and Corbln, I but it is stated tint nothing will be donci 1 hi the matter, which means Hint young j I Harrison will be discharged at the end of j I the month. One of the reasons assigned ! for his dismissal Is.Davls.commandlnglhe 1 island of Puerto Rice, has not been satis- lied with Harrison's work. It is also said in some circles tliat Harrison's discharge is due to politics and grows out of the fact that his father refused to take an active 1 part in the recent campaign in behalf of the republican presidential ticket. VVllliN four of the nine members of the supremecourt of the United Slates dissent from a decision, the average cillen should not be consider:d an -inarchlst if lie fails to regard that decision as n sacred thing. A case in point is the opinion recently hiuded down on the cigarette law of Tennessee. Involving the old, perplexing question ot states rights, in modem garb. Ibis high tribunal recently rendered a de lisionhi the case of Win. H. Austin vs. State uf lennessee, Involving the validity ot llie state law legul.iting the sale of iik!.uettes. The law was attacked as an iulriugmeut of the right of congress to regulate. Inteistale commerce. The Ten-1 uessre supreme court upheld the law, and the United Slates supreme court sustained . that verdict, though not without disap-' pioval ol some of the positions taken, and ' then upon a very narrow margin, four out ot nine members joining in the dissenting opinion and another member of 'in court, I .lustke White, pi. king his assent upon grounds dtlfeieut Iroin those announced bv .lustke lilov.ii, who handed down the opinion.
