REPRESENTATION PLANS.
DIFFERENT RATIOS OF REAPPoRTIoN-
MENT FOR THE HOUSE COMPARED
INTERESTS OF THE SEW
ERAL STATES
tBT TELEGRAPH TO THE rR1BUNE.I

Washington, Dec. 16.-Reapportionment of
representation under the results of the XIIth
Census is the subject uppermost in the minds
OF members Of the House to-day. and by rea-
son Of the disposition manifested by some of
the leaders to press the matter to a conclusion
before the end of the current week and to re-
tain the existing total number OF Representa-
tives for the next ten years. much excitement
has developed over the losses which some States
will sustain. and efforts are being made in many
directions to combine in favor of an enlarged
House.
Under the Hopkins bill, which developed bare
majority on an informal vote of the Census
Committee yesterday. and which provides for
3oI Representatives. at present, several i'm
portant States which actually lose no members
will suffer by comparison in the gains made by
others. notably New-York, Pennsylvania and
Massachusetts. while Ohio. Indiana and six
other States are directly reduced. They may
he depended on TO combat vigorously any propo-
sition which will lessen their influence in Con-
gress and the Electoral College.
Under the committees proposition proceeding
ratio OF 20s,S6s Of population to a Repre-
sentative. Texas gets two extra members while
New-York and Pennsylvania get one each. With
twenty seats added TO the House. Texas would
still gain two, but Pennsylvania would also gain
two and New-York three, and if thirty seats
were added New-York would gain four Penn
, sylvania three and Texas three. The injustice
TO two Of the greatest States Of an arrangement
that gives Texas much gain as both OF the
other two combined is obvious. especially when
fair increase. commensurate in some degree
with the countrys great growth, would tend TO
/ eoualize the representation more nearly. Other
States fare almost badly under the plan ia
] vored by the small group of members who
would control all legislation in the House if
they could, and the revolt against this plan Of
restricting the membership 10 its existing num-
/ Der is growing formidable.
Those who believe in a larger House. in spite
Of the admitted unwieldiness OF the present body,
/ point 10 the following table to show how the
growth Of the House has kept pace with the de-
4 velopment Of the Nation, and how great the
/ discrepancy has become between the present
system and the standard set in the early days
| OF the Government for thorough representation,
when one member represented only 80 900 popu-
lation. while now 1t is proposed to limit a mem
Der to nearly ten times that number. In the
table the ratio column gives the population to

TRIBUTE TO HIS MEMORY.

OF able and eloquent editorial on Oswald OF

Oswald Ottendorfrr representa- the best quail
ties of the German OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES So
Iidity, fidelity identity broad comprehension OF
public life in general and Of the mission Of the
Gernan-Amercans and the German press of this
country in particular.
The ideals of his youth he never lost The con,
victions which he had in his European storm and
stress period became clearer here under institutions
which he studied deeply. and matured in him ideas
concerning free governments which nothing could
make him renounce. His fidelity TO duty ruled him
in every step of his life. As long he was
convinced that he was right he cared nothing for
criticism.
In all probability he would have made a name in
any calling but without doubt the field which he
chose gave him the best opportunity to develop
his capabilities. Certain It is. he could have
become such leader in any other. Above all
the German populat on OF the United States owes
him a warm place in their hearts. but the entire
Nation has 10 give his efforts the highest

HOW TIE HOUSE HAS GROWN.

The popular movement in favor of larger
House will have additional impetus as soon
as the trial tables prepared by experts of the
census and furnished on Friday to Chairman
Hopkins are published and studied by the vari-
Gus State delegations affected by them. For
some reasons they have not yet been circulated
as generously as such bulletins usually are In
fact, the edition so small that barely half
dozen members have been provided with copies.
The work has been exhaustiyely done, and
every ratio from 213.O45. giving $50 Representa-
tives' to ratio of lS6.4l4. giving 400 members.
has been carried out for every State to three
decimal places beyond the absolute number. OF
these the three that are most likely to figure
in legislation are those which provide no in
crease in membership. which add twenty mem
bers and which add thirty members The off,
cial results in each instance, emitting the frac-
tional details are as shown in the following
table giving the number Of Representatives to
each State under the existing and proposed
totals.

the greater part of its time this week 10 con-

the Senate in time for consideration this
week until after the holidays and the same
