Mt CooXE said, that since the various propositions
for Il compromise basis of representation had been
submitted to the House, he had, with view to act
alviscdly the subject, carefully examined and
compared them all, both to their principles and
their results My purpose, at present, said he, Is to
lay some oil these results before the committees and to
make few brief remarks the principles involved
IN three OF the plans at present under consideration:
alludc to those offered by the members from the
middle and Western Districts, by the member from
Northampton and by the member from Chesterfield.
In the comparison of their Plans the first difficulty
which encountered arose out of the circunisanc
that in the unbe of the legislative bodies each one
varies from the rest The plan of the members from
the middle and western Districts, contemplating
House of Delegates of 100, and Senate of So That
OF the member from Northampton, House of Dele
gates OF 100, and Senate of so. That of the mem
Der from Chesterfield q House of Delegates of 1876
without specifying at all the number of the Senatorial
body. With view TO institute fair comparison
between them, as to practical results reduced them
I'll ~ The common standard of 100 members in the
House OF Delegates, and So in the Senate. I then
