BEING MADE TO HAVE

THEM SPEAK AT TIE STATE FAIR.
Alta recent meeting Of the State Fai,
managers in st. Paul, there was con-
Sidera ble discussion over Il proposition
that Hon. James G. Blaine and Henry
Watterson should be invited to attend
the fair and deliver addresses. Each
,f the distinguished speakers would be
given a separate day, and the attract
ion would. undoubtedly. call out IL.
immense assemhlage. Ultimately j,
WAS decided that letters should be writ

declared that If such a step were take,

"But the people would come to hear

Mr.. Blaine and Henry Watterson. tht
world-rpnowned champion of the star

pie to the fair, and make it an object
for them to come. and cannot suggest
any better attractions than the tw'
gentlemen whose names we have just
been discussing"
The old controversy is up again, as
atOrs this fall. The law says there
shall be an apportiOnment after every
State census, which was not done in
1855. Had it been done the election OF
State senators would come this fall.
There can now be no apportionment un'
til the legislature meets and that is not
until after election, and no Change
could take effect until our next election
two years hence. and the legislature
then elected would proceed at once to
make :another apportionment on the
census of 1890. No apportionment
having been made after tue census OF
1885, how can there be an election or
an apportionmentt that does not exist
and cannot until after election, whe,

make sure thing of it, senators car
be elected this fall, but If none ART
elected those now holding could legally
continue to serve another two years
Contests might arise through ballOtine
for other men, which would create
confusion and cause no little trouble t.
those now serving. And right there il
the meat in the cOcOanut-the fear OF
being ousted from Office in that man.
