The wrong perpetrated upon the older
States by the admission of six new states
for party reasons is made clearer by the re-
suits of the new census. Dakota was credit
ed with a population of $50, 900 in 1888,
when its admission was urged, but now the
two States made Of it have together but 5lS,-
542inhabitants. Montana, which before adj
mission was credited with 10000 inhabi-
tants. is now found to have but l2S, l6S.
The reason why reapportionment IS not to
be expected from Congress at the present ses-
sion can be gathered from the result in New
York. The State is found to have . 1898, 693
inhabitants. On the basis Of 1000, 900 tor
the Union and Isl, 900 for a congressional
district. New York would loose one member
of Congress. This loss would cause the en-
tire delegation from that State to be elected
on one ticket, if the appointment were made
before the next congressional elections.
Thus elected they would probably all be
Democrats. Hence no reapportionment till
after Noyember-BaHimOrs SIN.

The statement in some of the newspapers
to the effect that the amendments made by
the L. :. Senate elections committee to the
Force bill take the sting out of that bill and
should render it less obnoxious than it was
when it left the House of Representatives,
is not sustained by careful reading of those
amendments. Mr. Lodge. the putatiye fa-
ther of the iniquity, says "No material
changes have been made in the bill, and
that it is practically his bill as originally

THE Ninth Session will begin September 9th,
The following expressions of opinion will
show in what estimation the school is held by
itspatrons and others who have had an oppor-
tunity of becoming acquainted with its merits:
l take pleasure in recommending TO general
patronage the Stephenson Female Seminary.
/ was myself pupil of its Principal, the Rev.
C. n. Campbell, some years ago at the Charles.
town Academy, and know him to be good
scholar, faithful and conscientious teacher.
The success of this Seminary has been marked
from its establishment and with its fine new
building and other equipments, it should have
vigorous and prosperous career. / believe il
merits the patronage of our own and other
communities. w. l.. WILSON.
Being patron of the Stephenson Female
Seminary, bear testimony that it is in all re-
spects an excellent school for young ladies. Its
course is taught with thoroughness that COM
mands my admiration. and it is at the same
time so taught rs TO become attractive to the
scholars. Its accomplished Principal and
Teachers have solved the problem of making
hard study pleasure to the student.
Its discipline is all that any Christian or pru-
dent parent can desire. Exact and firm, il is
gentle, dIleCllODdte 80 llldl Silis
who board soon learn to regard themselves as
members of the Christian family. No pains
are spared to preserve health and to make the
young ladies comfortable and happy. No
school can offer greater advantages for moral
and religious culture.
Rev. c. n. Campbell has abundantly shown
his peculiar adaptation to teaching and train
ing young ladies, and he has shown this in en-
inent degree in his selection of teachers TO as
sist him A. c. HOPKINS,
Pastor of Presbyterian Church.
Ny daughter has been a student of the Ste
phenson Female Seminary, Charlestown, JEFF
ferson county, W Va. and from the opportu-
nifty thus afforded / can form correct judg-
ment of the ability Of the corps Of teachers OF
this Seminary. 1t gives mepleasure to testify
to the satisfactory manner in which the pupils
of the school are taught. Their education is,
in my judgment, much more substantial and
thorough than that to be acquired at female
seminaries generally. The Seminary is loca-
ted in a healthy country, inhabited by NOR
al, educated and refined people.
