CONGRESSIONAL APPoRTIONMENT
How the Next Census May Effect the
House Membership.

How the Next Census May Effect the
House Membership.
Mr.. J. E. Todhunter, an expert on census
matters, discusses in connection with the
large increase Of population in the United
States a very Important question, and that
Is the spPOrtionment OF members OF the
house Of representatives for the Fifty
second and subsequent congress for the
next decennium. The house in the present
congress consists of 325 members, ore
member 10 every 154,3 ,325 Inhabitants on the
basis of the tenth census. Upon the same
basis, assuming the population TO reach
7,710, 2eS. the next house will consist of
4So members, or the ratio of constituency
Will have TO be increased to one in every
2Oo SS9. One OF the other is inevitable.
Mr. IOdhunter says il is admitted
that the house at its present number
too unwieldy. taxing to the utmost
the powers of one man TO control il, ana
indeed he must have experience and abiuty
and BE- possessed OF peculiar qualifications
to be successful. On the other hand mem
bers, especially southern and western
members. complain already of having too
large constituency. giving as a reason
that the demands and opportunities of
their constituents IN relation to their pri-
vaie interests Interfere with the member's
duty as legislator. They are not, there
fore desirous of lRrger representation.
There are also othey considerations in this
connection Some states will gain in MEM
oers, others will lose. and sectional ieAl-
0usy will doubtless cause a very acrimun-
ious debate before settlement Of the ques-
ton.
1t is true that the English house of com
mons consists Of about $50 members, but in
the whole number there are less than
thirty acknowledged and admitted leaders
.HL - rhrav
acQuiesce and submit willingly TO the die
tatlon OF their managers. They are only
o. Importance when the vote Is taken, rare
~ presuming TO differ with their side Of the
house Not so here. Every member OF
our house Of representatives believes him
self 70 be the peer of any other.
