REDIsTRICTING THE STATE.


Some Of our exchanges are favoring
redistricting of the State into Senatorial
and Assembly districts. Such action
would carry into effect an express pro-
vision of the Constitution, and cannot be
disregarded without palpable violation
of every instinct of right and justice.
The Constitution provides for represent
tation according to population, and at the
same time forbidsths formation of a dis.
trict from parts of two counties. Thus
it is next to impossible to adjust repre-
sentation SO as to do exact justice. We
are now, it seems, working under the
apportionment made by the Constitu-
tional Convention. We will not ques-
ton that the apportionment was fair and
equitable at the time ii was made, but it
is not SO now. While some counties
have increased in population, in others
population has greatly decreased; yet
the representation continues, unfair as it
necessarily is. and always is liable to be,
as long as the population continues to
change localities SO frequently and in
such large numbers. No apportionment
made in the ordinary way next winter is
likely to be suited to the population of
the different counties at the election in
1874. The system now in vogue is liable
to gross abuse, and we have notable
instance OF how plain provision of the
Constitution may be overridden by an
INSCRIPTIONS majority of the Legisla-
ture, even though it does not represent a
majority OF the people, We refer to the
action Of the California Legislature at
its last session in refusing to district the
State upon the basis OF the. census of
1870, and in obedience to an express
command of the Constitution. The
members Of the Legislature chosen next
year in that State will be in accordance
with the census of 1860, although in
some counties population has decreased
since 1860 and in others it has more
than doubled. This difficulty may be
met with by allowing each member of
either House, upon call of ayes and
noes 20 cast the number OF votes be
received when elected. This would
give popular man greater force in the
Legislature than one who may have
been chosen by a vote indicating the
reverse. 1t would also, on every ques.
ton OF interest enough to demand the
ayes and noes, ascertain the popular
willwithout doubt. The provision of the
Constitution requiring that representa-
ton should be based upon population
would be complied with to its fullest
extent; indeed, carried out literally.

DEATH OF LorrA.-No actress is re-

from Nevada, was also arrested on two
charges of bribery. Tie specific acts of
which these men are accused are hot des-

never be brought to trial, but that the
charges will be smothered up in the

THE PRESIDENTS SALARY,

Mr.. Banks has introduced u bill pro-
viding for an increase of the Presidents
salary from SOS, 900 to $4,000 per an
nun. As an abstract proposition, we
think we'll of it, and if there were not a
constitutional provision in the way we
would favor it. Read from the Consti-
tuition:
The President shall at stated times.
receive for his services a compensation
which shall neither be increaed nor di-
minished during the period for which he
shall have been elected: and he shall not
receive, within that period, any other
emolument from the United States, or
any Of them.
In view of the fact that the present
Chief Magistrate has been reelected, it
is questionable whether an increase of
his salary would not violate the spirit of
the article quoted. We admit that there
is merit in the proposition to increase
the Presidents salary, and if it were not
that the present incumbent had been re-
elected, and will also have the signing
Of the bill which is TO increase his own
salary, we would favor the proposition.
1t would have been much better if the
leglslat ion proposed had besn accom-
plished year ago, before the candidates
for President were known. But now the
question cannot, in the nature of things,
be made to rest upon its merits. 1t
affects the pockets of one man too much
for that. The object of the trainers Of
the Constitution when the provision
quoted was made part OF the organic
law, was two-fold: 1st, To prevent tho
President, while in Office, from using his
power and patronage to advance his per-
sonal interests at the public expense; I'd,
10 prevent Congress from unduly inter-
tering with the Executive by reducing
his salary, or threatening to do So We
admit that the increase of the Presidents
salary at this time does not violate the
j
tainly in violation of the spirit Of that
instrument, and for that reason ought
not to pass. Suppose, for argument 5
sake, that Congress should disregard the
spirit Of the Constitution, and increase
the Presidents salary on the heel of his
Inauguration, let us see how it would
have worked twelve years ago: At that
time the Democrats had the President
and majorites in each House of Con-
gress, and without violating the letter of
the Constitution they could have re-
duced the Presidents salary to nomi-
nal sum, and SO have placed him in an
exceedingly embarrassing condition fnan-
cially. In our judgment the only proper
time to increase or diminish the Presi-
dents salary is, when it is not known
who is to be benefited pecuniarily by it..

RAILROADS IN UTAH.-Our neighbors to
the east of the State are fully awakened
to the Importance of railroad enterprises
The increase of railroad facilities in Utah
cannot fail to be beneficial to the people
of Phoebe. On the subject Of extending
the I. n. Railroad from Salt Lake north,
we copy the following from the Corinns
Reporter;
1t is at last our pleasant duty to an
nounce that complete negotiations have
been effected between the directors of the
Utah Northern railroad and the people of
this city, for the immediate construction
Of an arm of that road from point near
Brigham City into Corinne. The pre-
lminaries have been mutually agreed
upon, and now only the form of transfer
OF depot grounds, right of way, and de-
livery OF the stipulated bonus to the Utah
Northern are to be effected before the i'm
portant work begins. These points have
all been adjusted in friendly spirit, and
the attorneys Of the road are preparing
the necessary documents to place the en-.
tire subject in permanent shape.

CASH FOR AcREs.-The United States
has increased her limits wonderfully
within the century, seldom by conquest,
but always by purchase. In 1903, Napo-
leon, (who but three years before had
procured possession of it from Spain by
treaty. sold us Louisiana for the sum of
fifteen millions of dollars. But Lousi-
ana then covered more than her present

country north and west between the Mis-
sissippi river and the Pacific Ocean. (save
only that portion occupied by SPAIN
and running up to the British line. Out
Of this territory have been carved the
States of Arkansas, Missouri, Iowa, Ne
traska. Kansas. the Territories of Da-
kota, Colorado, Montana, Utah, and the
vast Indian Territory, bordering on Tex
as. In 1919 we purchased Florida from
Spain in 1915 Texas was annexed, but
it was practically purchase, for it cost
ten millions of dollars. and war with

later still the Dominican Republic Of.
fered herself for annexation without mo-
ney and without price, but some Of those
extremely moral Senators, like Sumner,
etc. who had a personal pique against
the Administration, opposed it because,
and only because, the President favored
it. And the Democratic press, for politi-
cal reasons only, howled with Sumner on
that point. And the purchase Of all
these territories was opposed by some.
body. But who would now give up any
Of them for fifty times the amount paid?
They were all good investments, and We
cannot but believe that the offer Of st.
Thomas and Dominica were equally as
favorable. The American people shall
yet regret that the contract was not
closed but it may not be too late, even
now, to complete the Dominican bargain,
although we suppose it will be some
time before Denmark again offers st.
Thomas-and then it may be at an en-
HANGED price. 1t is cheaper to buy land
than to fight for it-and We are sure that
it is far more honorable. We must have

The Bee is not altogether correct in its
historical statements. The Louisiana
purchase included not only the States
mentioned by the Bee, but Minnesota.
Utah was not part of the Louisiana

Spain. The United States acquired that
territory by the treaty Of Guadalupe Hi
