AN EXTRA SESSION
THE REINFORCEMENT OF THE STATE
IMMEDIATELY AN ABSOLUTE
NECESSITY.
Governor Hegg's Great Ally Thus Strongly
Appeals for an Extra Session of
the Legislature.

A republican form of government,
where the people rule through their
representatives in the legislative as
semblies, demands that every citizen
should have an equal voice in deeid
ing questions of the general welfare.
AS a perfect ratio of representatives is
departed from, in that degree power is
withdrawn from one that is his due
and given to another that is not his
due.
To make this proposition palmer
and more striking we turn to the in
exorable logic of figures. They show
the population of each senatorial dis
trict in Texas. The representative
districts are as unequal in population
as these comparisons show the sena-
torial districts to be, but the argument
cannot be emphasized by adding to
the figures submitted.
