An Issue Next ear.


Tho apportion ment issue will not
down at the bidding of Philadelphia
which decided the recent election in
favor OF the republicans. The people
of the state outside OF Philadelphia,
100000 voters, representing more than
three fourths of the population OF the
state, declared by their ballots in favor
of the democratic position on that issue
That large constituency demand that
the constitution shall be obeyed, that
the several counties shall have equal
rights in the representation accorded
them in the legislature and in congress
and that the refusal of the republican
senate to legslate to that end is not in
accordance with their way Of thinking.
Do the republican politicians in the
senate fondly imagine that the appor
'ionment question is settled2 If they

lelphia who have just pronounced
,gainst the conduct of the republican
.ruators and in favor of the position oc
upied by the democratic house will
next year emphasize their judgment in
the election of senators and Representa-.
ives. Every republican member OF
either house of the present legislature
Sill be obliged 10 face the issue on the

murdered constitution is not easily laid.

The expense Of the special session rend.
cred fruitless by the contumacy of the
republican senators and their repubi.
Can Aiders and ahettors in the house
sill prick the popular sensIbility to
more careful investigation of the failure
OF apportionment. The end is not yet,
nor the beginning OF the end.
Nor will the republican Representa-.
tIves in the legislature alone be obliged
10 bear the responsibility OF the failure
