THE REDtSTRlcTING BILL.
Congressman Jones And Rixey Ex-
press Their Views on the Measure.

The redistrictino bill offered by Mr.
Cumming in the Virginia legislature was
the principal tvpic cofconversation among
the membspg the Nir2 inia delegation in
Conlress N6nesday. Some Of the mem
oers seem to be pleased with il others are
iu0in'reHt about the whole matter. while
a lew oi them express opposition TO the
biil.
The man mostaifectei is Representative
Jones, II the first district. The provis
IONS Of the bill take from the Second and
adds To the First, Elizabeth City. Lanes
Oity. and Warw lex counties and the cities
~ Newport News and Williamsburg. AT
the western end OF the First district il
tases Oh Sp'tsylvania and the city of
fredericksburg and puts them in the
Eighth, and transfers Caroline to the
Ihlrd. Speak ing of the changes in his
district. Mr. Jones said:
There must be some motive outside of
an anequalization OF population. in this prob
pslton. IL that was what they were seek
ing, they would have found an ideal solu-
tion of the question by putting the county
ot Warwick and the city of Newport
News onto my district and tas ing them
ont II the Second. That would havecom
piled with the constitutional provision al
most to a dot. ltw would have given me al
most exactly one-tenth OF the population
oi the State; in fact. within l54 popula.
tion OF lSo, 900, which constitutes the
one tenth. If that was what they were
seeking, why didn't they try to increase
20 some extent the population of the Sew,
enth. with its 16O, 900, and reduce thu,
of the Ninth, with its pa, 900? The bill
ls very unjust one in my judgment"
Representative Rixey has largely the
view OF Mr.. Jones in the matter. lie die.
tated thefollowing statement last even.
ing as TO his attitude:
w bile do not think that anv re6is.
trictiOg bill should have for its " ain OF
chief object the interest OF any or all OF
the present Representatives, | do think
that it should, as far as possible. not do
injustice toany onedistrict. The only ne.
cessity apparently for redistrictiDg bill
grows out OF the excess OF population in
the Second and Ninth districts. and il one
Is altered il would seem that the Other
should be. While make no complaint
about the proposition to transfer spot
sylvania and Frederieksburg to the
Eighth district, it would seem that tc
tase Spotsly vania and Caroline from the
First and add to it largely at the otheI
end OF the district would to a large ex.
tent destroy the integrity OF the old dis
trict Washington Post.

The meeting that has been in pro-
gress the past two weeks, under the
spiritual guidance and direction OF
Brother J, b. Andrews, has begun to
bear fruit, in humble hearts and strick-
ell consciences.
The stiff cold fomality that perme-
ated the earlier services has given way
to live, active, and earnest interest,
which has moved to contrition many
hard hearts that have long been
strangers to the mellowing Influence of
Gods own saving grace.
Facts. Of gospel and the beautiful
stories of holy writ have been brought
home to the minds Of the people by the
earnest and eloquent Evangelist, and
be made Of them messages of warning
and love to those without the pale, and
of cheer to those who have borne
Christs Cross along the straight and
narrow way.

What To Do.
There is comfort III the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulfills every wish i'll curing rheumatism
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
1t corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day. and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect OF Swamp-ROot
is soon realized. 1t stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need a medicine
