NEW ENGLAND PREPAEISG ron THE COMING
CESsUs.-rhc New York Commercial Advcr-
tiser has the following:
The Journals of New England arc beginning
to discuss the probable aspects of Congress
under the new Rpportionmcnt to he made after
the next census is taken. They fear that from
the growth of the West the New England
States may be largely shurn Of their strength
or left out in the cold. The Providence Press
has an article on the subject, in which il re-
marks: The West is superior in numerical
strength the East is far superior in financial
importance. This fact will noccssitatc the
consideration of the just basis of appnrtion-
inent, that the section which contributes of
its capital to promote the material growth of
the country may not be compelled Ia be sat
istied with a small minority in the House of
Representatives, while the West dependent
ut least in the early part of its history, upon
the favor and patronage of the East, may not
have controlling vote in Congress, and so
distribute the capital which they do not own
ms to enhance itself at the expense of the rest
Of the country"
This seems to signify flat while the West is
to have representatives in proportion 10 pop
ulation, rule is to be devised for New Eng
land whereby IL may have an increased rep
resentatlon by virtue of its money bags and
brains plus it's inhabitants. The idea il not
bad for New Englandor, but IL is hardly
within tho clause of the Constitution in regard
to representatives.

Nothing New.

buckle, IN MS celeDrnteu 'inuOuucuon
tells us there is really but very little that
is new in the constantly shifting scenes of
society. The greater part of the ideas that
seem TO move the masses of men enough to
produce events. after certain period recur;
the same crimes are committed over again;
the same instruments are used, with almost
the same certainty and uncertainty Of punish
ment. Society, according to Buckle, reyolves
in perpetually recurring cycles. We are led
To- refer to these thoughts Of the great thinker
by the present aspect of the labor question
and the conflicts that are going ON between
capital and labor. Capital now complains of
the arbitrary measures that labor takes to
secure to itself fair compensation for its
sweat and protection for the future. A great
howl went up few weeks ago because the
molders Of San Francisco declined to have
more than II certain number of apprentices in
troGuced into their trade; but probably the
journals who are most earnest in their con-
demnation of the molders have forgotten who
it was that taught them this mode of protec
ton. Less than half century ago, the mas
tiers of nearly all the mechanical arts refused
to admit only certain per cent. Of appren-
tees to learn tndes. The importation of
skilled workmcn ut lower rates of wages was
fought against not many years ago, both i'll
this country and in England, by manufactur-
ers. as being ruinOus TO the interests of capt.
tai The introduction of the power loom was
hailed by the poor weavers at first as u boon.
but they were turned against il by the mas
tiers, who feared cheapening of fabrics and
ruin of their business. The tirst saw mill
built in England was destroyed by the advice
and threats of the master sawycrs, and 80 II
was with almost every important mechanical
invention fifty years ago. 1t was not the
laborers who feared or fought the improve
ments or the increase of their numbers. but
the man who had capital invested in the old
processes. Formerly masters banded together
to keep the secrets of their trades within GER
tain channels, and visited quick and terrible
vengeance upon any workIncn who divulGed
them. and the authorities winkcd at murder
committed for this cause. Capital taught and
acted upon the higher law, and led public
sentiment to- approve. Now the ever-revolv-
ing wheel has changed the positions of the
