trolls. would see to It that naked main-
tenance of at least as good a quality
as is now furnished, was provided
wherever money is specifically appro-
priated by the state for maintenance,
at considerably less cost.
The educational, penal. correctional
and charitable institutions of the state,
whether supported in whole or only in
part by the state, are, as will fully ap-
gear from the foregoing revelations, vir-
tually all industriously exploited for the
support Of the Republican machine Ev-
@e dollar of mekex voted TO them in
one way u another. directly or indFect-
ly, pays tribute to it. A great liber-
sifty 10 fh6sSently and defiantly util-
lied to assist the basest of political as
piratiens. The mere money outso Is
not nearly 80 large as Senator Pen
rose tried to make the people believe,
and is far from covering the difference
between the cost of honest government
and the cost Of Republican machine
government, but It is great sum
nevertheless, fully suffice to inspire
successful revolution a. inst the ma
chine and the men who are responsible
for its cruel and wicked maladminis-
tration.

there are:
One Republican senator for each 16,-
553 Republican votes.
One Democratic senator for each 73,-
204 Democratic votes.
Make a like calculation as to the
members of the lower house Of the
state legislature, which had III Re
publicans to 80 Democrats, and the fcf-
lowing will be the result:
One Republican member for every
4,259 Republican votes.
One Democratic member for every
1878 Democratic votes.
The American system makes every
citizen politically equal, and the laws
are supposed. and in fact, are consti-
tutionally ordered to be made to en-
force that rule; yet here we have o
method of electing senators in Pennsyl-
vania that makes one Republican as
good as four and a half Democrats
that is, that gives one Republican as
large a voice in this matter as four
and a half Democrats.
AS to the congressional representation,
the injustice Is even greater. Including
the two elected at large, Pennsylvania
has 30 members Of the national house
of representatives. OF these "a were
elected as Republicans and but three
as Democrats. Here we have:
One Republican member for every
26,933 Republican votes.
One Democrat for every LA, 400 votes.
Which makes every Republican vote
count In this regard, as much as five
and half Democratic votes.
AS showing the gross injustice OF the
present senatorial apportionment, many
specific instances might be cited. Let
one suffice. According to the census
of 1890 Luzerne had a population Of
201, ,203, and Lackawana a population OF
142,10S, making a total OF 343,291., The
senatorial districts in these two coun-
ties, under the act of 1874, which is
still operative, overlap, part of the Lu-
zerne district extending into Lacka-
wanna. Together. they have two SEN
ators, or one senator for III, ,645 of pop-
ulation.
The county of Lebanon has but
1871 population. yet she has a senator
by herself.
That senator for the last IL years was
General Goblin. now the Republican
candidate for lieutenant governor ON
the machine ticket; and General Goblin
is one of the men who have exercised
the most potent influence in perpetuat-
ing this great wrong by openly oppos-
ing or secretly conniving against any
new apportionment.
Every legislator who has done this.
or been in any way an obstructor OF
epportionment legislation has been
guilty OF perjury, for all take oath to
obey the constitution which perempt-
orily demands It,
Are the democrats not justified in ar
raigning the Republican party for this
among Its myriad Of other great wrongs
and persistent ignoring of the plain
letter Of the constitution?

A MACHINE INFAMY.

Exploiting the Schools, Prisons, Hos
pitfalls and Charities, Etc, for Base
Partisan Purposes--Full Details as
to the Methods of Achieving This
Great Outrage--Senator Penrose's
Attempt to Deceive the State as to
the School and Charity Appropria-
tions Fully Refuted From the Rec
ords.
At the late Republican convention
that met in Harrisburg to express its
contempt for honesty and economy in
the state government the boss sent the
Junior senator to represent him and
sing siren song into the ears of the
people which, IL 1t did not deceive them,
might still be used by the heelers for
such clamor as should confuse and
drown the cries of the reformers. Mr..
Penrose made a very valiant, but
manifestly very laborious effort to full
fill his task. He, of course, ignored the
detailed, specific and widely published
evidences of the Republican ma
chimes theft and waste Of the public
him or anybody else to fairly meet and
successfully refute them. But sweeping
them aside, as with wave of the hand,
he undertook to account for the con-
stantly increasing cost of machine
rule by ascribing 1t to a greater liber-
ality to the schools, the hospitals and
elemosynary institutions of the state,
leaving 1t to be inferred that Mr.,
Quay and the machine were being
criticized and abused, not for any real
wrongdoing. but for their enlarged
liberality in caring for the helpless
wards Of the state.
Even IL 1t were true that the differ
ences In the gross annual outlay of the
state were accounted for solely by the
larger appropriations to the schools, the
hospitals, etc., these appropriations are
themselves made to dishonesty and
unlawfully contribute to the main
tenance of the machine, whose astute
chief and ever watchful lieutenants
would consider themselves grossly
derelict in permitting such large sums
to pass through their hands without
gathering on it some profit on the way.
But the excess of the cost of main
tanning the state government as be-
tween 1888 and 1897 was almost three
and three-quarter millions OF dollars
greater, leaving wholly out of the con-
sideration the cost of the schools, the
penitentiaries, the insane and the
charities, as the following figures will
show:
