not gained nearly as fast as the two
states just mentioned, while Texas,
on the other hand, has made enor-
nous gains in population, and has
taken Massachusetts place as sixth
in population in the country, the
order being New York, Pennsylva-
MIA, Illinois, Ohio, Missouri, Texas,
Massachusetts,. Kansas has lost
three places in the list Of rank of
population; Colorado and Washing
ton have grown faster than Maine,
while Florida, Washington and Ore
gon have grown faster proportionate-
ly than Maine, Vermont and New
Hampshire; Wyoming and Nevada
still have less than 100000 people
| each, and Nevada is the only state in
the country to show an actual de-
crease in population. Extremely i'm
pOrtant questions relating to the re-
appOrtiOnment Of representatives in
congress will grow out Of this new
census. If congress fixes the ratio of
appOrtionment as one congressman
for each 100000 of population, as it
will very likely do (instead Of one
member for each 173,901 of the
population as at present), the house
will consist of 377 members, and the
presidential electoral college Of 467
members. 1t seems to be considered
probable that this source will be pur-
sued. If it is, Kansas, Nebraska,
Maine and Virginia would lose rela-
lively in their representation, while
six states illinois, Michigan, Min
nesota, New York, Pennsylvania and
Texas would gain two members
each, and twelve states one member
each. Politically speaking, and bas-
ing the conclusion on past elections,
this would appear to be favorable in
some degree to the Republican
strength"
The Seattle Republican., 1900-11-23
WASHINGTON'S EARLY SNOW

One of the worst snow storms that
has ever prevailed in the Northwest
IN early November set in last Satur-
day night and ragged all Sunday and
Monday. Old settlers claim that
nothing of the kind has ever before
since they have been in this country
prevailed as early as the present biz
zard.
The storm ragged not only in
Washington, but all over the North
west, and an immense amount of
damage was done in Montana, idaho
and Eastern Washington, where the
wind blew at terrific rate and an
immense amount of snow fell. In
Montana the mercury was down to
zero, and in Eeastern Washington
and Idaho it was nearly as bad. The
weather, however, moderated early in
the week, and Washington has as
sumed its usual moderate climate.
The Seattle Republican., 1900-11-23

tered in Seattle instead of Tacoma
If Mr.. Hill has control of the North
ern Pacific, it should not be lost
sight of that he also has control of
vast properties both in Tacoma and
Portland, and that it will be his ut
most care to see that these proper
tres are properly looked after and
nurtured into double their present
value. For that reason he will hard
ly 90 anything, regardless of his pre-
tended love for Seattle, that will in
Jure either of these cities. But if
Mr., Hill has control of the Northern
Pacific, as he has of the Great North
ern, 1t will give him a clean and
clear swing from Port Townsend to
Portland and the entire water front
OF Puget Sound will be monopolized
by this great railroad magnate.
