THE ApPoRTIoNMENr OUTRAGE.

The House of Representatives, under the
spur of the gag rule, yesterday passed the con-
gressional apportionment bill by vote of
So to 10. The measure received the mega
tive votes Of nine Democrats, who could not
indorse the infamous disfranchisement Of the
people of the State it proposes. The Journal
has hitherto expressed its views very
plainly upon both the congressional
and legislative apportionment schemes.
They are crimes against popular rights and a
free suffrage, as Infamous and more cowardly
than the crimes of the red-shirted night
riders, the ku-slux and the murderers of
South Carolina, and Of the ballot-box suffers
and tissue-ballot inventors of Mississippi. The
crimes proposed by the bills should be resisted
with all the power, and force, and indignation
of free manhood. Indiana white men
should not consent to be bound hand and foot
as are the poor colored people of the South. If
these Infamous, scoundrelly and cowardly
schemes are not throttled here and now, there
is no limit to the rascality and crime
which may hereafter be perpetrated by
any partisan majority. In defiance of
right and justice, in open and fragrant denial
of the parliamentary privileges OF the mi
nority, this congressional bill was forced
through. 1t is an open secret that this rob-
berry is to be consummated before the Demo
Gratis will permit the necessary legislation of the
State to be passed. The responsibility for the
State government and administration is not
with the Republicans, and they should not
voluntarily assume any Of it. The Democrats
should be told, unequivocally, that every means
guaranteed to the minority will be exhausted
before their infamous political steals can be
fastened upon the people, and if the appropri-
alton bills are finally defeated because of the
scoundrelism Of the Democratic majority, the
voters of the State will know where to place
the responsibility. Two years ago the Demo
Gratis defeated the appropriations because they
proposed to control the executive department
of the government now they imperil the same
measures because they propose to throttle the
minority of the General Assembly, and to ride
rough shod over every consideration of de-
cency and justice. As the Journal has fire.
quently said, anything less than revolution
is not only justifable but demanded
to defeat such a bold aud unscrupu-
lous fraud, and if the minority does not SO
meet the insolent majority they will not
make a proper defense of the trust committed
to their keeping. That is our view of the
ouestion
