GOSSIP AND CHAT HEARD IN
WASHINGTON HOTEL LOBBIES
Little But Loud.

Llltic put LUuQ.
Vermont is a small State. but she
has large Legislature, said Mr.. r. E.
Hathorn, of that State. last night at
the Ebbitt House. Every town in the
State has representative in the lower
branch of the Legislature. Efforts have
been made from time to time to redis-
trict the State in order to Insure a more
equitable representation. but these at
tempts have failed because the bacl,
towns stand together and refuse to sur
render their privileges.
For instance, large towns like Mont
pelier and Rutland only have one rep
resentative each; that Is, one for the city
and one for the town, while 4: is fact
that towns with less than a hundred
voters each have a representative whose
vote counts as much as does that of the
vote OF the representative from Mcnt-
pelier.
THE little town of Baltimore has but
fourteen voters, yet one of that number
is member of the Legislature, and he
always persistently refuses to vote to
divide the State into districts. There
are always enough of these back town
representatives to defeat redistricting
scheme. There are several towns with
not more than 100 votes, and q number
with but two and three hundred voters
The present Legislature consists of 241
members of the Assembly and thirty
senator's"

A Buckeye Democrat.

Col. Ike Hill. the veteran Ohio Demo-
crat. was In the lobby OF the Ebbitt
last evening discussing national politics
with a party of friends. Colonel Hill is
perhaps without exception one OF the
best known Democrats in the Buck eye
state. He counts among his personal
friends Democrats and Republicans OF
national prominence from one end of
the country to the other.
ut is a little bit early to size up the
situation" said Colonel Hill. but from
my point of view / can't see how the
Democrats can lose this fall. President
Roosevelt has spoken against the trusts.
but the Democrats in the House acted.
Now, II the Presidents party In Con-
gress was with him. why, it would have
followed his recommendation and passed
some antitrust measure last session.
But they wouldn't do it. Now, the Demo-
Gratis in the House amended the Cuban
reciprocity bill by repeating the differ
ential duty which gives protection to
the sugar trust. And what did the Re-
publicans in the Senate do? Why. they
pigeonholed the bill in face Of a spe-
cial message from the President.
THE record will show who is agin
the trusts for fair and who Is agin 'em
for bluff The people this fall will elect
Democratic House of Representatives.
and the Democrats will pass an anti
trust measure and put 1t up to Re-
publican Senate. Then We'll see what's
what"
Colonel Hill says the Democrats will
hold their own in Ohio. with good
fighting chance to gain several mem
