Here are eleven states which in national
election cast only 705l45 votes, or only about
one.ninth of the total Republican vote cast in
the whole country, but which under the present
apportionment have nearly one.fourth OF the
delegates in the national convention. Penn
sylvania alone cast nearly many Republican
votes as all these eleven states together, hut
it has less than one-third as many delegates
New York cast more Republican votes than one
third the representation in national conyen-
tion. Other comparisons would bring out still
more plainly the injustice Of the present plan.
The Hon. Henry C. Payne, OF Wisconsin, pro-
posed scheme which would, in a great meas
ure, remedy the evil. 1t gives four delegates.at
large to every state and additional delegate
for every 10000 votes cast, or a majority fraction
thereof. Under these scheme the eleven south
ern states which have now PA delegates would,
on the basis Of their vote in 1896, have only
l25 delegates

Notwithstanding the ability of the
foreign troops to disperse the elements
of disorder in China, the probability
that many OF the helpless missionaries
may be massacred before help can
reach them makes the Chinese situa-

A substitute for Mr.. Payne's plan has been
proposed by the Rhode Island delegation now in
Philadelphia to attend the national convention.
1t does not outline any definite scheme OF rep
rcsentaton, but pledges the Republican party
to the enforcement of that section of the four
teenth amendment to the constitution of the
United States relating to representation in con.
Gress, and urges that Just and equitable repre-
scntation OF the Republican voting strength and
sentiment OF the country be given in the Repub-
lican national convention Of 1904. Whether it
Il intended to continue to base the ppportion.
ment Of delegates on congressional representa-
tion after the number Of congressman from the
southern states has been reduced according to
the fourteenth amendment, is not exactly clear.
1t is clear, however, that gross injustice under
which the strong Republican states now labor
should be corrected, and that there is no better
time 10 correct it than the present.

murder of foreigners, Including, ac-
cordng to unconfirmed report, the
German minister and perhaps other
personages Of high official degree,
brings within probability the early dis
memberment OF China. Lacking CO.
hesive power itself, China will either
have to be propped up by a concert of
the powers or partitioned among them
with a view to the more convenient
division of the labor of preserving in
ternal order while external influences
work out better native conditions. In
either case, it is futile to expect that
the American government can remain
passive spectator. Participation In
the task OF restoring order is a neces-
sary price of future commercial ad.

Representation
In Conventions


From the Philadelphia Press.
THE QUESTION Of representation in Repub'
lican national conyentions has been brought
II to the front in way that will hardly
admit it being left undecided by the body soon
to meet in this city. The national committee at
It's rleetinG last December though hest to leave
the matter to the convention itself and not take
the responsibility Of changing the basis OF rep
rcsentation which has been in use longer than
the party has been in existence. This decision
was doubtless wise, but it will not he wise
decision of the national convention OF next week
also leaves the question unsettled The wrong
growing out of it is so plain and 1t is increas-
ing at such rate that trouble is sure to follow
il it is not dealt with now.
.
The plan in use up to the present time has
been to give every state double the representa-
tion in national conventions that it has in cor
grcSs without regard to the party vote cast In
any state. This plan might have continued in
use indefinitely had not the suppression OF the
colored vote ia southern states made it grossly
unjust. The suppression of the Republican vote
in the south, by force or by law, has destroyed
party organization in many OF the southern
states and left Republicans in most Of them with
no power to aid in the election Of a Republican
president and congress. But with the old scheme
Of representation in national conventions still In
force these same Southern Republicans have been
able to exert influence in the nomination Of
president and vice president and in the direc.
tion of party policy out OF all proportion to the
votes they cast
How grossly unjust this has grown to be can
be from the following table, which gives
the Republican vote cast for president in eleven
southern states in 1886 and the number OF dele
gates to which those sames states are entitled
in Republican national convention on the pres
ent plan Of apportioning delegates:
