The Stale Apporiionmess.

The Committee on Apportonment of Sena-
tors and Representatives for the next decade
have had several protracted meetings. The de-
bate has been chiefly of constitutional charac-
ter,and the issue has been confined to The in
ten OF the constitution in regard TO breaking
county lines or otherwise informing senatorial
districts A portion Of the committee have
taken the ground that Senatorial dis'iictS
should be so formed that population aiohe
should regulate their boundary, ana III case
there was fractional excess OF population
over and above the number required for one
ormore Senators in any one particular county,
it should be carriedover to the next county and
so on until all the districts were made to con-
form TO general rule which would make the
Senatorial representation, as near as could be,
governed and regulated entirely by pepula-
tiou. Another party is in favor Of keeping the
county lines intact; allowing the smallest
counties in population one Senator, and the
larser,ones as manySenators as the population
calls for without an eXcess-and then giving
those counties which may have the larger
fractional excess a Senator until the NUMBER
which the constitution allows is exhausted
This question has elected warm and earnest
discussion. The party which has argued on
the side OF the proprety and necessity OF
breaking county lines have evidently had the
constitutional side of the question backed up
by the decisions of the Supreme Court. The
other side have the advantage of precedent of
adhering to county lines and also the advan-
tage OF an arrangement which brings with it
less trouble and annoyance 10 the electors who
would otherwise be obliged to attend several
conventions for the purpose of nominating at
theone, county officers, at the other Senators.
The vote on this question was taken Friday,
and it was voted to adhere strictly to county
lines by vote of 10 in the affirmative and I
in the negative. Unless thesquestion should
be reconsdered, our readers will notice by
the following table how the State will be dis
tricted Tor Senators.
The published census of Maine exhibits "a
population of 626, 195.
The Legislature is constituted of 81 Sena-
tors and ISL Representatives. The average
number entitled to a Senator is therefore 90
200; and the average entitled to Represen-
tative 4t47. .- .gr.
The following table exhibits the number of
Senators to which each county will be en-
titled by dividing theirnumbers by these aver
ages; and gives also the fractions on which
the apportionment will be completed.

This table provides only for IA Represen-

distributed, and properly to those counties
which have the largest fraction with due re-
gard to rala4i..s-i-,e...-,
Those counties which have a Just claim for
one of these seven are Androscoggin, Cum

and Sagadahoc.
1t will be seen that Cumberland county is
entitled to four Senators and twenty Repre-
sentatives. The apportionment should be
