THE CENSUS AND POLITICS.
Effect which the Coming ReappOr

WASHINGTON, April 5.--A ques-
tion that is attracting considerable
attention, apropos of the census to
be taken in June is what will be the
effect of the statement of population
on the Congressional vote of each
State, the electoral vote and the re-
suit of the Presidential contest of
1892. With the increased popula-
ton there will probably be an in
crease in the number of Congress
man and electors. The prospects
are that the northwest, far west and
Texas will gain, New England lose
and the other States remain about
the same. The most populous
States for forty years have been New
York, Pennsylvania and Ohio, in
the order named, but the census is
likely to show that Ohio is fourth,
and that Illinois has passed ahead of
her sister. Ohio is therefore likely
to lose one or more representatives.
OF the States that will gain Texas
Will show the greatest increase-.two,
perhaps three. Other States that
may gain two are Minnesota, Illinois
and Nebraska, with perhaps Kansas
and Missouri. Colorado, Arkansas,
Tennessee, Michigan and Wisconsin
are likely to gain one mcmb Der, and
South Dakota has hopes. TO make
up for this, there are likely to be
losses of member from Georgia,
Maine, Massachusetts, Ohio and
Virginia, and gain in all of about
seventeen, including idaho and Wy
oming, and loss of about five.
This leaves the perhaps" out of
consideration. The Electoral Col
lege would then stand on the basis
of lsSS-Republican, 230; Demo
cratic, III. Assuming that North
and South Dakota, Wyoming, Mon
tana and Idaho go Republican. and
adding the decreases and deducting
the losses, there would be Repub-
lican gain of l9, making the result
Republicans, 249; Democratic, Ill.
Deducting the votes of all the States
that may be reasonably claimed as
doubtful, Montana, New Jersey,
New York, West Virginia, Indiana,
California and Connecticut, the re-
suit would be Republican, lS4;
Democratic, $50; with Sc votes to
fight for, necessary to choice, 211.
The Democrats would need 61 and
the Republicans ~ votes to win,
which would make it impossible for
the Democratic candidates to win
without New York's 36 votes.

Whether or not the Jews are 80 be Official
IN expelled from Russia, a. recent contra
diciory dispatches intimate, 'the condition

civilized Europe is grieyOus.
From the number of statements emanat-
ing from Europe the fact seems clear that
the arbitrary edicts OF lSS2, born Of fanati-
cism, contrary 10 justice, and to the spirit Of
modern civilization, are 10 be rigidly en-
forced. The result can be nothing but the
exodus from their homes Of the four million
members Of the prosecuted race.
That this is the case may be learned from
a glance at the edicis. Jews throughout
Russia, land including Russian Poland,
must henceforth reside in towns only, aud
not In the country. No jew will any Longer
be permitted 10 own land or even 10 farm
land. All Jewish land owners. farmers,
and agricultural laborers will thus be ex.
PEELED from their village homes, aud, unless
they have saved the means Of subsistence,
will be reduced TO beggary.

THE BAPTIST UNIVERSITY.

The confirmation Of the reports that Mt.
John y. Rockefeller would contribute
500 OO0.OO0 toward the endowment OF d
great Baptist University, is gratifying news
70 thousands Of persons IN all parts Of the
country. in spite of the care and Tempt.
tions attending the accumulation OF one o.
the greatest fortunes in the world. Mr..
Rockefeller has remained a staunch member
of the communion in which he was raised.
His contribution has not been unexpected,
though comparatively few thought it would
be such large amount. 1t is double the
endowment Of that Of any other Of the great
institutions Of learning in this country. II
will afford means to the leaders Of the Bap-
fists in this country to provide a gathering
point for all of their faith throughout the
world, and if il is 10 be true university.
its benefits will not be enjoyed by Baptisis
only. 1t will require, however, some
thing more than large sum Of
money. and the talent which that
money may command TO make great uni
yorsity. Time is one Of the greatest factors
in the development Of such an institution
a. has been proved, and the cases of the
University Of Virginia, Johns Hopkins.
Princeton. and Harvard. Time, money and
brains will accomplish anything, though,
and Mr.. Rockefeller will have the satisfac-
ton Of seeing the good fruits Of his endow;
ment and will enjoy more than the empty
honors Of "A post-mortem philanthropy.
