Is At EQUAL, we ask in the indignant Ian
guage of The Wing document, that 1887 inhab-
itants in Dukes should have the same voice IN
the government as nearly twice that number in
Essex Bristol, aud Nantucket? Compare these
two tables; and is there any difference between
the two which warrants sensible men in rejecting
the new Constitution and retaining the old? But
we 60 further, and we invite attention to the
matter of EQUALITY and the OLD CoNsTIrU-
rIoN and will show that the old Constitution is
infinitely more unequal than the new
In order to judge of the operation of system,
we must look at It's practical results One great
evil of the present system is, that while Boston
elects her Al men every year, the general
ticket, large portion of the country towns fail
to elect, and this gives the great preponderance
to the power of Boston. We shall see the beat
ings of this consideration, by looking at the cleo
tons Of 1915, AZ, AT, and AS, being the four
years before the Coalition, and at the results of
those elections in the political complexion Of the
Legislatures Of 1916. al, AS, and 40. The

equality and the New Constitution"


The Wings are flooding the Stale with a four
page pamphlet under the above title, filled with
figures, TO show the inequality Of representation
under the new Constitution. Nobody denies
that there is inequality, but the question Isl
Is the new Constitution less unequal Than the
old
Figures don't e,'' is an old saw; but one.
sided statements do make figures lie shockingy.
Even admitting that the system of representation
is as unequal as the Wings assert, our reply is,
that by accepting the new Constitution we Sc
cure the adoption ola district system in 1856, fa
majority of the people vote for it. This the
Wings take care never to state.
But we do not resort TO any such argument. -
Everybody knows that the question before the
people is-shaII we adopt the new Constitution,
or retain the old? Here is the issue, and we
affirm that the old Constitution is immeGSurG'
b q more unjust than the ne1o one-that in the
pracucal workings of the two systems, the add
vantage is infinitely on the side of the new Con-
stitutOn.
There is one misstatement that usually at
tends all Wing statements upon this matter, aud
that is, that the alleged undue power oflhe coun-
try towns gives to those towns the control of the
government This, the pamphlet to which we
have referred, after declaring that a minority of
the people will elect majority of the House,
adds, ''lhus placing the ENTIRE CONTROL OF
THE GOVERNMENT in the hands Ofihree -tenths
of the people," This is an intentional misstate-
nent. The House is not the government, for
the Senate will be elected in single districts of
equal population, and this branch has chr elk
on the house, and the Governor has still another
check.
The pamphlet then gives the following table 10

the lIorse Exhibition.

The National Horse Exhibition at Springfield,
opened on Wednesday, the l9ih, with great eclat.-
The weather was most delightful, aud Springfield
thronged with the jockeys of the nation, who
had assembled from far and to unite in this
quadrupada jubilee And not with jockeys alone
for with them came crowds and crowds of the har
yeunanry Of the State, and Of States adjacent, with
their nags of every description, until it actually
seemed as il Springfield had become onevast korse
pal for apeH horses, and the horse-pitaIity of It's
people was to be tested by equestrian attack such
as It had never before been called upon Withstand
Every barn, every stable, every she'd and every out.
house in Springfield, and for miles around was &C.
cupied by more specimens of the horse kind
some with "lher necks clothed with thunder'' and
some without that terrible appendage. Some ap.
parenlly "smeng the battle aar off," and some, 10
all appearance, smelling the piovender nearer by.
Al nine o'clock, the gates Of the large enclosure
allotted to the exhibition were opened, and inward
the eager multitude poured it's way, living tide OF
human beings, all anxious TO catch the first glimpse
OF the noble animals arranged for exhibition, mum.
boring, in all, four hundred, from three hundred
different contributors.
At ten O'clock, George Dwight, Esq President
OF the Boardof Managers announced the programme
of proceedings, and the procession Immediately com.
menced forming, and then began tie grand entree
upon the course, in regular order, of all the
horses entered for exhibition; the stations leading
the van, and the farm horses bringing up the rear
Three hearty cheers were given at the outset, and
off the animals started around the course, filling
nearly the entire space Of the half mile circuit. So
magnificent sight Of the kind has rarely been wit
messed any where, and certainly not in this country
After exhibiting their fair proportions twice around
the track, the trial of speed commenced ACROSS
the plain. The contest was most lively, and its ex-
hierAtiug effects shared by the. spectators, as
well as by the horses and their drivers.
AT twelve O'Clock, the trial of draft horses
commenced. The number OF entries was not
large, and the horses were not the best of their
breed
The exhibition Of breeding mares was the first
in order after dinner. There were more than fifty
entries in this department. Nine of the animals
had specimens of heir progeny by their sides, and
the judges we're occupied unti late in the afternoon
IN deciding upon their respective merits, as they
pissed in review before them.
After this, there were other trials Of speed o.
horses, which only suspended, when the gath.
ering darkness rendered such exercises unsafe for
and beast. And so ended the fist day.
