More Apportionment suit shans.

Chicago Herald.
Further facts in relation to the ap-
portionment suit Mt Danville show
more shams. and that il is merely
trivial and vexatious as we'll as
tricky and collusive in its origin.
The petitioner, James p. Fletcher,
makes false statement on coming
into court. He alleges that he is Q
candidate for election rs member OF
the house of representatives in the
general assembly. He is not such q
candidate in the usual. accepted and
legal definition of the word.
Vermiliou county. in which Mr..
Fletcher resides, is part of the
Eighteenth senatorial district, in
which he says he is q candidate
for representative. The republican
convention to nominate candidates
for Representatives in the Eighteenth
district has not been held, nor even
called. or course no candidate for
representative has been nominated.
The fact is, that ut the republican
convention in vermilion county to
elect delegates to the republican
u
tecnth district convention, q resolu-
ton was adopted presenting MIR.
Fletcher's name to the district con-
vention, when it shall be held, for
nomination ms one of the candidates
for representative in that district.
That is all. Mr.. Fletcher is q candi-
date for nomination merely, not q
candidate for representative. He
comes into court on q fraudulent pre-
tense.
1t is understood that the materials
Of the suit will be further increased
by the appearance Of William j.
Bincs. who will ask permission to
file q cross bill. MIR. Bines is q can
didate for the democratic nomin met tic n
for representative. rs Mr.. Fletcher is
u candidate for the republican nomi-
nation. He was Endorsed for the
nomination by the democratic con-
vention Of vermilion county. He
stands in the same attitude as MIR.
Fletcher. OF course one has the
same rights in the court as the other.
The grounds Of MIR. Bines' pro-
ceeding are more extended than
those Of Mr.. Fletcher. His petition
will show not only that the present
apportionment is o substantial com.
pliance with the constitution, but
that to revive the apportionmcnt of
1882 Gf that Of 1898 should be set
aside) would create inequality of the
grossest description. Under the act
Of 1882 the senatorial ratio WINS CO.
900 inhabitants. The old vcrmilion
district then had 67.0s7 population
and now has 1862. II the act OF
1898 is unconstitutional on account
Of its inequality nothing can be said
to Justify the act of 1892 nor for its
restoration.
That the claim Of Mr.. Bines is rs
good rs that Of Mr.. Fletcher is indis-
Putable. 1t Is presented in good
