Should Be Seated at once.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 8. - Although
ex~Secretary Blaine did not feel
enough interested in the election Of
Harrison and Reid to take the trip to Maine
TO vote for them. spending election day as
usual till this evening, when he read the re-
turns in his library, he is still interested in
politics. He is quoted by Census Superin-
tendent Porter as having said in the inter
view Supt. Porter had with him last even
ing about the right of the states to
their increased representation in the
present House, instead of after March
next: "1he subject is a curious and inter-
esting one. | arm surprised that it has re-
ceived so little attention, or the attention IL
warrants. l am clearly of the opinion that
the number equivalent TO the number in the
electoral college should be added to the
delegations from the states affected. do
not see any other way.
THE CONSTITUTION CLEAR.
THE constitution is perfectly clear on
the point that the total Of the electoral col
lege should consist Of an equal number to
that of the total representation from all the
states in the Fifty-second congress. 1t does
not refer to some future congress In my
opinion. It unquestionably refers to the
present or existing congress. Il must refer
TO the congress that counts the votes, which,
Of course, is the present congress. I eau
well see how this may become
very important question within the next
few days. 1t seems to me that the solution
of the question is for the states given addi-
tional congressman to elect them to this con-
gress before it expires. l don't see how,
supposing after election these additional
congressman presented themselves, it is pos
sible 20 refuse them admission. To sum It
up, it is clear and unquestonsble to my
mind that the total in the electoral college
must be consistent with the total representa-
ton in the congress-"

The following table gives the distribution

IL the additional members had been elected

the tedious double count required last year
was removed by the general court last
winter, the returns at the city hall were
slow in coming in and much more tardy

Wool and the Revenue.

That troublesome question about the
revenue remains. The Democrats do
not get rid of It by shutting their eyes,
nor bv asserting that large increase OF
revenue would follow reduction of du-
ties. This, If true, means that imports
would increase: if duties of so per cent.
on wooden goods yield 50, ,o0O, 900, the
imports must more than double in or
der to get an increased revenue from
duties OF less than 10 per cent. The
goods now imported, costing So ,OOO, 900,
are reckOned to represent 10000, 900
pounds of wool in the raw state. In or
der to get a larger revenue from duties
of less than 40 per cent. the imports
must be great enough to supplant $50
100000 worth Of goods and 340,00O,UJO
pounds of raw wool, which should be
produced in this country. Nor is that
all The duties on raw wool Weld
-, 300, 900. To avoid decrease of reve-
nue. the imports Of goods must be in
creased enough to yield 81 400, 900,
which with duties averaging less than
10 per cent. would require the importa-
ton of goods costing n foreign ports al
least $40, 100000. These goods would
represent a consumption of 40, ,O00.WD
pounds Of raw wool, or 10000, 900
pounds more than the present imports
represent. Neither growers nor manu-
facturers will consent TO such increased
competition. Because the Democrats
dare not propose it, they are in trouble
about the revenue.
Woolen clothing costs less than balf
what it cost i'll this country years ago
but the consumption per capita has not
increased in any such proportion. In
1861 imports of goods were valued at
50. 746, 80, or S1.2I per capita; IN 1871
imports were but s43 30, 40, or only IS
cents per capita. Meanwhile, the con-
sumption OF wool in manufacture here
has risen from l94, 153, 900 pounds in
1861, or 80 pounds per capita, to 1872
800, 600 pounds in 1891, 90 pounds per
capita. Reckoning both imported and
domestic goods, the consumption per
capita has increased scarcely any, if at
ali. though the price of WOODEN goods
has declined at least onehalf.
The Increased imports must be at the
expense OF reduced production by
home industry But there IL no eyi-
denCe that the price Of goods to con
sume!s would be lowered. The Ameri-
can goods are nov kept low by coIu.
