LISP of these taxpayers was filed in
the office of the county clerk, but that
the same was stolen six days later A
list Of the names in typewriting had,
however, been preserved, and in
regard to the 1882 alleged signers the
committee reported that 131 are not
male taxpayers; l was dead: , are
women; 5 are non-residentS: Il are
entirely unknown: - signed more
than once: 222 were forgeries: and 1874
had filed written Withdrawals with
the county clerk before the petition
was filled, and 81 afterwards. This,
to the report, would leave
only $50 genuine signatures, whereas
a total of 9S7 was necessary to auGhOr-
ize the issuing of bonds.

CHANGES IN THE NINTH.
From Oshkosh Times.

From Oshkosh Times.
The Merrill Advocate has its own
ideas with regard to the apportion-
ment Of the state rendered necessary
by the increase of congressman. 1t
says:
The legislature will re-apportion
the state into eleven congressional |
districts, and there is no doubt but
that the Ninth district will be
changed considerably. The eastern
counties, Marinette, Oconto, Clark,
Shawano and probably Langlade
counties will be Topped off, and
Marathon, Wood and Portage counties
added on. This arrangement would
be certainly satisfactory to the people
of the Wisconsin valley. This change
would make the districts more
homogeneous than it is at present, as
the Wisconsin valley counties have
not much in common with the eats
ern portion of the district.
The suggestion contained in the
above paragraph is a good one and it
is perfectly in line with the
national e-appOrtionment act.
Districts should be homogeneous.
The interests of the counties that are
drawn upon to make up district
should be as nearly alike as possible.
Thus, as the Advocate says, the people
OF the Wisconsin valley have interests
peculiar to no other part Of the state:
and, if they are united into one
district, the congressman elected
from that district can proceed about
matters affecting their welfare with
calm and undSturbed conscience.
