PRODUCTION"

A bill has been introduced to reduce the
bounds Of reason. II is senate bill, and
places the number at 80 senators and
seventy Ave members of the house. 1t
would give one representative to each
1000 Votes, and senator for $500.
The situation - the same all over
South Dakota, but as more direct illus
tration Of the present useless expenditure
Of money for misrepresentation We will
consider Hand county: Three represen-
tativcs and one senator cost $4,000 day.
There is not one single logical argument
why such representation should bs main.
tanned. The cry OF economy has gone
forth, and the question should be con-
sidered in its broadcast and most practical
sense. There are plenty of laws in sX-
istence. such as they are, and a few men
would be more likely 10 make necessary
corrections than large number, to say
nothing Of the fact that 30 large q repre-
sentation will always contain men who DO
little or no real work. The present ses.
sion will csst Hand county at the rate Of
$40 90 q DAY for 80 days, or an aggregate
OF $1,000. We believe IL the duties
devolved upon one Of our legislators, he
would accomplish as much real beneficial
work OF interest to the county and state
for $500, making a saving Of $9O0-pro.
vided. Of course, the representation be
tho same from other sections. Just
think what sum this reduction would
save to the state at large. II the legisla-
tnre really means economy here is mag
nificent opportunity to prove 1t.
The constitutional minimum is reached
In this senate bill for representatives.

but there can be cut made ON the mum.
Der of senators to rs instead Of 80. To
reduce the bill 10 rs senators II would
take say Hand, Hyde and Buffalo which
would make district much more within
reason than the present one of Hand
alone. We cannot imagine why there
should be any justified opposition to the
senate bill unless it be to reduce this
number still lower. But as 1t now stands
Hand county would have two representa-.
tives, and be joined with very small
county for senatorial district, provided
county line boundaries be observed.
