ion OF the aggregate taxation. lie fur
Their advocates law authorizing free

A New IRELAND SpRINGING Up
That New England should, at no
very distant day, become New Ireland
is very shocking reflection to the de
scendants OF the Puiitans; but the
thing is a possibility nevertheless. In
1868, one-third OF the popu!otlon OF
Massachusetts Was made up of persons
born of Irish fathers aud lsuthers !:
aud of sc, 1913 births, those of foreign
born parents exceeded those Of native
born by 5000 The baptism Of Infants
IN the Catholic churches amounts to
10000 per annum. Fifty years ago
there were but three Catholic families
in Connecticut aud Rhode island, ac-
cording to the statement of Bishop Nc
Farland; now, there are three huu.
dred Catholic churches to accommo
date the 200 600 Irish Catholics in
those States. In Rhode Island, the
Catholics are one-third of the pepula-
ton. aud, in 1869, had as many births
as the other two-thirds-a fact which
goes far toward explaining the whole
matter. If the native New England
stock is thus ceasing to bear fruit, while
the exotic Irish stock bears SO album
dainty, the memorable result must fol-
low: New England will cease to be
what it is, and become something else
and what else should it be, but New
Ireland!

EIGHT C0NGEESSMEli

Within short time the present Con
ssess will pass an act experiencing req
fesentatiycs among the states, as re-
quired by the constitution, according
10 the late census. The act will most
likely make provisions for Increasing
the number oi mem bers from 243 to
500. The total lopulatiou OF the
United States is about SO, $50 GOO, and
on the basis Of 500 members, there
will be one representative to every 1877
600 inhabitants. This is the same ra
ito as that established by the Census
OF 1860. The population of Wiscon
sin is .G53,8S emitting US to eight
representatives. OF course nothing
definite ID known as to how the state
will be divided, and much curiosity is
evinced in regard to the counties
the new districts will contain.
The Milwaukee Sentinel of Monday
last, contains very elaborate map, ex-
hibiting what it coIceiyes to be a very
fair and equitable division of tie state
into the eight congressional districts,
and showing plainly the boundaries
and popula,i on of each. The proros-
ed new districts. with the majorities
they gave at the subernatorial election
of one year ago, are as follows
