The ratio of Is to means that the

Mr.. Bryan's reception in Ohio has
been even more cordial than ia New
York. where his tour of ten days was
ole constant ovation At Cleveland
Monday night he spoke to three great
gatherings, aggregating 10000, and
on Tuesday night he was listened to
at Colombus by the greatest crowd
ever brought together in Ohio. 1t
filed acres of ground and numbered
fully 10000 people, all of whom
seemed to be shouting for the mag
netic leader who is firing the country
with enthusiasm without parallel in
the history of politics. The handful
of soreheads at Indianapolis can 70
more stop the popular wave that is
carrying Bryan into the White House
than an empty barrel could have
aged the waters of the Johnstown
food. 1t is true the barrel in this
case is not empty, but filled with
gold as it is it can no more defeat the
man the people are determined to
elect than toy balloon could have
blocked the progress of the st. Louis
cyclone. All figures, estimates and
logical conclusions are swept aside in
tidal wave years, and this time we
may expect to see such a landslide as
never swept any country. 1t will be
ground swell from ocean to ocean,
resistless demand for financial re-
lief from an aroused and determined
people. Bryan will carry McKinley's
own State.

If, as the most reliable statistics af
firm, there are nearly seven thous-

world, not very unequally divided

SHORT SESSION YESTERDAY.
PLAN PROPOSED TO DIVIDE NEW
CASTLE COUNTY TO SECURE
LARGER REPRESENTATION.

DOVER, Dec. 12.-The session of
the Constitutional Convention yester-
day was merely held for the purpose
of holding the members in Dover to
attend the committee meetings. Only
sixteen members were present, a bare
quorum, and the session lasted but a
few minutes.
President Biggs appointed Messrs.
Gilchrist. Cooper and Johnson as the
Committee on Education, which was
ordered to be appointed yesterday
1t was decided to adjourn until We'd
nesday next.
One matter which has received con-
siderable attention is that of represen-
tation according to population. If
such a plan was adopted New Castle
county would, of course, have as much
representation in the General Assem-
bly, as would the other counties COM
bined The two lower counties will
not agree to this, and as a comprO-
mise, two plans are proposed. One Of
them is to increase the representation
in the General Assembly from New
Castle county by eight additional mem
bers, but TO keep the control of the
Legislature in the hands of the lower
part of the state by giving each OF
lutHt AOunllto lOuI dNulAiOHdl lutuA-
bers. The other plan is to divide the
county of New Castle into two coun-
ties, and give each of them the repre-
sentation which they have at present
The New Castle county people. with
one or two exceptions, are opposed to
the plan of dividing the county, but
will make a hard fight for increased
representation.
IL was given out last night that all
of the Union Republican delegates
who have thus far refused to take their
seats in the convention will be on deck
by Wednesday and the vacant chairs
will then be occupied. They have de-
cded to take this course rather than
run the risk Of having their places de-
clared vacant by the convention, whose
jurisdiction is supreme in all matters
pertaining to the delegates.
The failure of the Union Republi-
cans to answer the rOll-call and their
absence from the committee meetings
to which they We're appointed has led
the convention to take the bit in its
teeth Unless they take their seats
Wednesday a resolution will be offered
declaring their seats vacant.
1t is rumored that the convention
will abolish the present offices of at
torney-general and deputy attorney
general divide the state into three
districts by counties, and provide a
district attorney general for each
county.
