There has been great deal of interest
felt by politicians recently as to the re-
suit of the census of. the United States
which is to be taken in 1880, in view of
the fact that future representation in
Congress will be based upon it, and
therefore, to large extent, it will affect
the electoral college for President and
Vice President. The Philadelphia
Times, one of the ablest 'and most saga
cious journals of the day, figures the
probable result for members Of Congress
out as follows: "Eleven States-Colo-
RADIO, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida,
Louisiana, Maine, Nevada, New Hamp'
shire, Rhode Island. South Carolina and
Verrnont-get no increase. The largest
relative increase appears in Kansas,
whose delegation will be increased to
seven, it being three; California in
creases from four to seven, and Texas
adds four to the six already given her.
Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, Maryland,
Massachusetts,, Mississippi, New Jersey,
Oregon, Tennessee, Virginia and West
Virginia gain one each; Arkansas and
Nebraska gain two each; Indiana and
Minnesota will have each three addi-
tional; Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, Mis-
souri,, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wiscon-
sin get an increase Of four each, while
New York's delegation is augmented by
five. By geographical divisions, the
New England States gain one member,
the Middle States ten, the Western
thirty-two, the Southern nineteen and
the Pacific States four, or an aggregate
of forty-seven to the North and nineteen
to the South" While this is so, the
Democratic States gain thirty-one, the
Republican States twenty-seven, and the
State of California, equally divided at
present, not yet decided upon which side
to be placed. The new apportionment
will not seriously affect the standing of
political parties, and, if any change is
made, it is likely to benefit the Demo-
Gratis. The country can surYiveit at any
rate.

TWO SOUTH CARoLINA MEMBERs.


Mr.. Aiken made another capital speech
on an amendment offered by Eugene
Hale, which among other things prohib-
tied the use OF tissue ballots, and his
defence of his State and section was in
keeping with the admirable speech he
delivered the other day.
. Rainey got the floor and spoke from q
seat near Hale and Garfield, and his
remarks were inspired by his proximity
to these adroit managers. His attempt
at a reply to Mr.. Aiken, in which he
declared that South Carolina is Republi-
can, was applauded by his party breth-
rem.
There are Democratic members of the
House who say that the House will pass
both amendments, and that the Senate
will reject the second. Then that COM
mittee of conference will be ordered, and
that in the end l. . House will recede
from its demand in regard to the aboli-
tion Of supervisors of election and depu
ty marshals.

THE PENNSYLVANIA BRIBERY CASES.

At the late session of ths Penn
syivania Legislature an effort was made
50 bride members to pass bill to CON-
pei the State to pay the losses incurred
by the railroads in the Pittsburg riots,
two years ago. Several members
stated publicly that they hal been
altered money to vote for the bill, and
committee was appointed to investi-
gate the charges. The evidence before
the committee showed conclusively that
the charges were well founded; but
for political reasons the persons who
attempted to bride the members were
not arrested. Some of the papers were
making the most of this one sidedness
sn the part of the committee, and as
there is an election to be held in the
State this fall, were making it count
against the Republicans, vino control the
committee. Il was therefore decided
that some of the principal lobbyists
should be arrested, and a few days ago
Charles B. Salter anil William II. KEN
BE were notified to enter bail on a
charge OF corrupt solicitation of mem
beers in connection with the Riot Claims
BILL 1t said that the details of the
prosecution have been arranged, and
that Senator Matt Carpenter, OF Wis

Pennsylvania, have been engaged to
prosecute the cases. Kemble is the

Sicians in or out of Pennsylvania, and,
though members OF the Legislature say
be offered them money to vote for the
Riot Claims bill, there is not the re-
hottest hope OF his heing convicted.

THE LABOR INQUIRY.


The Committee appointed by Con-
gress to investigate the cause of labor
depression in the United States, is
now in session in San Francisco. 1t
has been ridiculed by the press and the
public generally since it's first session
in Chicago, as many believed it would
follow the example OF other Con5 res-
sional COMMITTEES and devote its time
to junketing and picnicing at the ex-
pense of the public. This ridicule pro-
badly had a good effect on the members,
as the Committee, instead of going to
the Yosemite, as surmised, is attending
to the business for which it was APP
pointed. Several witnesses have been
examined before the full Committee at
the San Francisco Custom house. One
of the witnesses, a tinsnita By traie,
testified that white labor could not COM
pete with Chinese in sone departments
of business for instance.
Some 1000 Cinnamon are now employ
ed on the Columbia river, il this bust
ness, and are paid about s26 per month,
while hundreds of white men In that
section are out of employment. Chinese
have timing shops in San Francisco aud
sell their wares to wholesale dealers,
and the witness was of the opinion that.
unless Chinese immigration is restricted
all the white timers will have to leave
the city, as many OF them have already
done. Another witness, manufaetur-
er of rubber betting, hose, etc., testified
that Chinese competition had driven a
large number OF skilled mechanics in
his business into the army, navy and
harvest fields. A few years ago a slip
per manufacturer employed one China
man; that Chinaman got his cousins
and friends IN the shop, and in less than
q, year they owned it. They have
worked into the boot AMI shoe business
and run shops, Independent OF the
whites. A farmer testified that Chinese
were running farms, having leased the
land for percentage of the crops, and
are driving white men out of the bust
cess..
The Investigation is developing moth
ing new to the people OF this coast, who
are well aware of the fact that Chinese
are driving white men out of business,
sut this Committee will bring the mat
ser officially before Congress and may
possibly satisfy Mr.. Hayes that he ought
TO sign bill to restrict Chinese immi-
grafton.

New York Mail
A dispatch from. Philadelphia announ-
ces that an interesting story in connec-
ton with the new silver dollar has Just
come to light in that city. Tne secret
has just come out, through the Record
newspaper, as to the name OF the young
Lady that sat to Mr.. Morgan, the de-
slgner, as a model for the head which
appears on the coin. She is a Miss
Anna W. Williams, of 1923 Spring Car
den street. In 1876 when Mr.. Morgan
was making designs for the coin, he was
introduced to the lady by Mr.. Thomas
Eakins. He desired to have true rep.
resentative OF American beauty emilia
zoned upon the coin, and the profile Of
Miss Williams appeared to him as the
best approach to it he had seen. The
lady, who is of very modest and re-
firing disposition, was induced to sit,
and after four or five interviews, suiTi-
cient sketches had been secured to pro-
coed with the work. The artist wrought
up the face afterward to it's present APP
pearance, as it is shown upon the coin.
1t would be impossible to recognize in
it any resemblance to, Miss Williams.
The Grecian nose and the delicate lips
had their foundation in her features,
but the full rounded chin resembles
more that Of the wife Of Mr.. Morgan.
Miss Williams is blonde and consider.
ell quite pretty. She is teacher in the
girls department of the House of Re-
fuge, and about Is years of age. This
sets at rest the numerous stories which
have been in circulation as to whom the
face on the coin belongs.
