THE APPORTIONMENT.
What Is Thought of Mr.. Hilligass's Bill by
Democrats in Washington.


Special to Louiayille Courier r-Journal
If the Democrats of the Indiana Legislature
reapportion the State for congressional districts
they will makesa mistake that in time will cost
them several members Of Congress, and, perhaps,
votes enough to defeat them in the State in 1888
The present congressional apportionment is al
that could be desired by Democrats. There are
eight certain Democratic districts out of thirteen
s0d the chances in favor of the Democrats in
two others The Republicans under the pres
ent apportionment law have only four districts
out of thirteen, namely, the Sixth, Eighth,
First, Second Third Fourth Fifth, Seventh
Ninth. Twelfth and Thirteenth
The Democratic con gressional majority in In
diana is only about 1000, and for these 10000
votes they have FIVE members of Congress. They
certainly should be satisfied with this surplu;
representation, as they are so much opposed to
any surplus whatever. Your correspondent
has talked with nearly all the Democratic dele
CATION in Congress here from Indiana, and, per
haps, with the exception of one man, they are
opposed to a new congressional apportionment.
Indeed new redistricting law in that State by
the present Legislature would be nothing but a
party gerrymander and should be opposed by
the wise and prudent leaders of the Democratic
party there.
1t is piece of party meanness and small and
contemplate species of personal legislation to
disrupt the districts of q great State in order to
"fx' a district for some ''good fellow" The
beat way to .'ix' these good fellows is to le,
them 60 and locatein Democratic districts and
take their chances among the many other good
follows Indiana is all right now, and the wisest
thing to do is to '.let well enough alone"

Too Much Legislature.

1t seems to us that the State of Indiana has
been an institution long enough to arrive at a
point where additional legislation is unnecessary,
and that it would be of lasting benefit to the
taxpayers of the State were the sessions of the
legislature five, Or even ten years apart.
Every two years they are called together for
sixty days, and in that time they manage to
pass laws creating new and additional public
officials and in fact only succeed in burthening
the people. We are aware that appropriations
have to be made by law to sustain the public
and charitable institutions of the State, but the
senator or representative who will secure the
passage of a law-even should it take a change
in the constituton-permitting the convening
of the legislature only once in five or ten years
the farther apart the sessions the better-will
confer boon on a tax-ridden and over -burdened
people, and win the encomiums of grateful
constituency.

An intermediate Appellate Court.

30 the Editor of the indianapolis Journal
The utterance of Governor Gray as to the un
,Onssitutic nality of the Supreme Court Commis-
sion is not new one. The Governor only gives
voice to what every lawyer in Indiana knows
In November, 1873, the crowded docket of the
Supreme Court had become such a burden to
the court ITSELF and such an obstruction to the
administration of justice that the Indiana Bar
Association, at its annual meeting, devoted most
TO the provision of means whereby the court
IBight be relieved.
The meeting was attended by a strong repre-
Sentation of the bar from all parts of the State.
The hrst subject of discussion was whether any
provision could be made to dispose of the accu-
mulated business of the Supreme Court without
a constitutional amendment, So as to be accom-
plshed at the then approaching sessio n
of the Legislature. 1t was then mani;
mously resolved that the Legislature nos
9esSed no power to create a commission and
shat constitutional amendment was the only
remedy. Various methods were then suggested:
Hrst, the increase of the number OF judges; sec
ond, Supreme Court commission; third, in
termedate appellate court These reforms, of
course were to be determined by the method of
aEaending the Constitution There were no ad-
yccates for an increase of the number of judges
The Supreme Court commission had few advo-
Gates, but a large majority almost overwhem-
thg, favored an intermediate appellate court, or
courts, OF three judges each TO sit in different
parts of the State, so as to accommodate the
bar ana the suitors. and facilitate the ready and

valley and distributed. Company organizations
have been openly formed, and battalion drills

them on the committee. Assistant Adjutant-
general Dill, of Gov Hoadlys staff, who has
been through the valley and taken notice of the
warlike preparations, has aroused the Cover
nors rather somnolent apprehensions by his
report, and all the most reliable State troops
have been quietly notified to hold themselves in
readiness to respond upon moments notice.
There are good reasons for believing that the
worst communistic leaders of New York, Chica-
go and other cities are ir the Hooking valley
experimenting the preparations for war, and
the uprising is probably intended to be more far
reaching than the most apprehensive even yet
suspect If surface indications go for anything,
and unless thereis a sudden change in the Hook

people of the whole country will one of these

Stop the Loans.

1t is said that the State Treasurer loans the
funds of the State aud realizes from this source
about $25 600 year. which he puts into his own
pocket instead of accounting for 1t to the State.
If this 5e so, law makers at the capital
should pass law prohibiting that evil practice,

continuously about $500. 900, and only gives
bond for $l50,0O0 He should be
prohibited from loaning the money. and
be made to give bond of at least 81, 900 000 To

THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL is rscog-
nized everywhere the leading newspaper OK
Indiana No proper expense will be spared In
the future to maintain this undisputed excel
lence and to increase the value and interest OF
the paper. THE JOURNAL was never 50 weH
equipped to serve the public Our arrangements
for the collection of the news of the day ara
more complete than ever, and we are adding
some special features for 1885 which must en-
hance the popularity of the paper.
THE JOURNAL is the only paper in Indiana
that prints regularly the full reports of the
Western Associated Press, which are now
more comprehensive than ever, covering the
whole world. These dispatches are supple
mented by the work of special correspondents
at all the principal cities and towns Of the
State and of the country at large. We have .
special resident representative at Washington
City, who looks after the news Of the national
capital with vigilance paying particular atten-
ton to that which most nearly concerns THE
JOURNALS constituency. The national admin
istration will soon pass into the control of tho
Democratic party, and the fullest and most re-
liable intelligence from Washing gton will be
presented in our news columns, free from party
bias, impartially, and without restraint.
The new State administration takes charge Of
affairs with the beginning of the new year. The
Democratic Legislature will be in session. The
Journal will pay unusual attention to the daily
presentation of such a report of its doings THAI
any citizen of the State may know all that is go.

MED with such comment as may be needed to ex-
plain the possible political, social and economis
effects of the proposed legislation
Editorialy THE JOURNAL is Republican
paper, believing in the principles and general
policy of the Republican party; but it recognizes
that the day of blind party organising has passed.
and it proposes to be perfectly free to criticiss
and condemn, but in spirit and with pur-
pose for good having proper regard
for personal rights and regulations
The citizen, whatever his political faith, can be
| assured of seeing in the columns of THE
JOURNAL the fullest and fairest presentation
of the news, and in its editorial columns such
comment and structures as will command his re-
spect if they do not meet his approval It may
also be said that THE JOURNAL is published
| as a FAMILY NEWSPAPER. 1t recognizes
that the women and the children are to be in
structed and entertained. They will always find
in it's columns matter specially prepared for
them while the paper will be so conducted as to
prove welcome visitor in the household. Tha
news will be presented in such shape as TO min
imze the evil, and its editorial and local columns
will be kept free from moral taint.

| mttedly the freshest fullest and most accurate
printed by any newspaper in the country.
