Republican Schemes TO Capture q Ma
Jority OF the House Next Fall.
There are some intimations that the
President deprecates the adoption OF
the bill introduced in Congress to inter
fere with the Congressional districting
of Ohio. Secretary Halford's paper re-
fers to 1t as measure Of questionable
propriety. All the defense OF Il pro-
leeds upon the assumption that the
Democrats intend an outrageously par
iisan and unfair apportionment one
similar TO that now in operation aFs
ranged by the Republicans Even IL
that were true, the act could be made to
feact upon the perpetrators. There
have been advantages taken Of such op-
portunities by both parties at different
times, but that does not make 10 justifa-
BILE. The Democrats in Ohio would do
very unwise thing IL they were to at
tempt to gerrymander the State to Sc.
cure advantage unwarrantcd by the pop
ular vote. They insist that they have
no such purpose, and no reason appears
for doubling their professions. In case
Congress should pass the Hoar or Wick
ham bill a complication would probably
arise. The Democrats will no doubt
have the changes made before the act
can become operative, and they
would elect the twenty-one Con-
gressmen by the new districts,
while the Republicans would ad-
here to the old ones. The result
would be that each party would ask
seats for twenty-one men, and the en-
tire delegation admitted would be Re-
publican or Democratic according to the
strength of the parties in Congress out
side of Ohio. This is contingency to
be greatly deprecated. The Republic
ans do not mean to lose the next House
If foresight and devices will obviate
that result. One OF the most recent
schemes is for Congress to remain in
session till the census man reports his
count of population and then apportion
the membership under that. The
enumerators have till July to complete
the count, and it would be remarkable
piece of expedition If the computations
and returns could be made in a month.
Then after Congress had assigned the
members tc the States, there would be
no time for the Legislatures to convene
and make the districts. Either Congress
must make the districts or the additional
members to States must be elected on a
general ticket Where a State loses a
member new problem would be pre-
sented. 1t is assumed that the census
will help out the Republicans, but a
good deal of ingenuity will be requisite
to make any considerable advantage
out of it. The great trouble they are
likely to fhd in getting a majority of
the next Congress is lack of vOtes.-St

THE DEADLOCK BROKEN.
A Victory of Which Democracy May Well
Be Proud.

N w
Be Proud.
The breaking of the deadlock in
iowa brings a sense of relief to the
whole country, and very natural feeling
of exultation to the Democratic heart.
When a political party in State elects
the Governor and the Speaker of the
House for the first time in thirty-four
years it has great reason indeed to re-
joice and be glad.
The compromise finally reached, how
ever, is a characteristic one. The
Democrats walk off with the honors
and the Republicans with the spoils of
Office and the political machinery. The
Democratic self-complacency will be
gratified every time it looks at the
Speakers chair, but the payroll and
the work of the committees will show
that the Democrats have probably
sacrificed material advantages to an
empty show. There is story afioat
about two men who had to divide be-
tween them lot of oysters, and who
did 1t by giving one of them the oysters
and the other the shells. This may
not be an exact illustration OF the
Iowa compromise, but certainly one sug-
gests the other. In fact all compro-
misses between Democrats and Republic
ans are apt to end in that way, and the
reason is obvious; the Democratic party
Is party of principles and the Re-
publican party is party Of spoils. 1t
is sentiment against greed in every in
stance.
Still, there is abundant reason to APP
plaud the course pursued by the Demo
cratic members throughout this strug-

This Is no rumor, mind you, says
the Administration organ in this city,
speaking of certain allegations of fraud
in the Florida election. at is state
ment of fact sent By tie officials Of the
Florida court to United States Attorney
General Miller"
The childlike assumption that this
fact takes the report out of the domain
of rumor and gives it the weight of
truth is almost too beatific for this sub
lunary sphere. In order to apprehend
its full force and beauty one ought to
read it in the light of recent proceed
ings illustrative of the noble trust
worthiness of Republican court officials
in this same State of Florida
In the Northern district of Florida
one Charles Swayne is the United States
Judge, holding Office by virtue of APP
pointment from President Harrison.
The marshal of the district is John r.
Mizell, also a Republican. The latter
has very naturally turned his attention
with considerable zeal-having been
appointed with that understanding-to
the ferreting out of alleged Democratic
frauds on the ballot-box. In starting
out on his quest he was struck with the
desirability of packing the jury-box
with Republicans, so that his prosecu-
tons might not fail through any such
accident as the lack of evidence. To Sc
cure this result he wrote the following
letter to one of his tools:
c. G. KIRK ESQ, De Land, F'la.-Sir: You
will at once confer with Mr.. Bielby and make
out list Of fifty or sixty names of true and
Nied Republicans from your county registration
list for jurors in the United States court, and
forward same to Hon. P. Walter, clerk United
States court, and it is necessary to have them
at once, as you can see. Please acknowledge
this am, yours truly,
JOHN r. MIZELI.
United States Marshal.
Please get the names of parties as near
steamboat and railroad stations as possible.
This precious bit of Republican ras-
cality was offered in evidence on the
trial of the case against the alleged per-
petrators of fraud at the polls, it having
already been shown that twenty-five out
of the twenty-three members of the
grand jury were Republicans and that
the box from which the panel was drawn
contained ten Reput licans to one Dem
ocrat. But the Republican judge re-
fused to have the letter read in evil
dence.
