EQUITABLE REPRESENTATIONS

The subject of the necessity OF change in
our present system Of representation which re-
turns single members from electoral dis tricts
by plurality vote, is being earnestly dis
cussed in many sections of the country Its
said IL leads 10 abuses; disfraHch ises the local
tiles which cast the votes, and sends members
to Congress who only get one-third OF the votes
of the electors OF their district, thus allowing
minoritIes to rule. The problem TO be solved
Is, how TO remodel the system : to prevent
malorities from crushing out minorities and
miDorities from ruling over ma lorities Several
plans have been suggested, among the most
practicable OF which may be mentioned TIA,
of the abolition of local constituencies, making
all nominees candidates at large. To deter
mine " he shall be elected the whole number
OF votes cast II divided by the number of mem.
beTs TO be returned, which gives the number of
votes necessary for an election. Thus. minor
ties can consolidate their votes upon candi-
oates Of their choice without fear of being
tricked by the ingenious devices of a plurality
rule.

upon your earnest attention. An addition Of
fifty per cent, throughout to the salaries OF

believe that nc interests Of either country can

mon aim IN the advancement OF civilization
and humanity throughout the world
In expressing these feelings / am only ra
peatng what has been uniformly said by the
United States since they become sovereign.
We have had much reason TO be pleased with
