The visit to our county of Hon. E d.
Shurtleff, speaker of the Illinois house
of representatives and aspirant to the
governors office, brings to our notice
the proposition he is advocating-to
limit Chicago's political power. The
project is not quite new, but has re-
ceived little attention, unless in some
of the Chicago papers; and their utter
ances indicate fear, anger, resentment.
Not being able to hear Mr.. Shurt
leff's speach at the farmers picnic,
do not know just how he proposes to
accomplish his proposition. But, evil
IDENTIFY, any plan that gives minority
of the people entire control of the leg.
islature is Objectionable, and will be,
no doubt, held repugnant to that clause
of the federal constitution guaranteeing
to every state a republican form of gov
eminent 1t should be possible to de-
wise a scheme that will work equally
and impartially between Chicago and
the balance of the state and, therefore,
be approved by all fair minded citi-
ems. Such a plan may be found by
closely copying the organization of the
United States congress wherein one
branch represents localities, the other
populations.
Let each county be constituted a
senatorial district, electing one send
| tor, provided that any county having
population less than a certain estab-
lished minimum, say $4,000. 10000 OF
10000, shall be combined with an adj
joining county to form a senatorial dis
trict, and provided also that a county
having a population of SOC, 900 and up
shall elect one senator for each $50,
900 people. These figures are for illus
tration only. | have not at hand the
data for working out the problem. The
theory is that the unit of senatorial
representation in Cook county shall be
two or three times larger than in the
balance of the state. This will give
| the country districts a clear majority
in the senate for many years to come.
i Members of the house OF representa-
tives shall be apportioned among al
the counties in the state in proportion
to their population. This will give
Cook county after the next fedora
census, according to Nj. Shurtleff, q

CHICAGO VS. ILLINOIS.

majority of the members of the house,
and this majority is expected to in
crease. The practical result will be
that it will be impossible to enact any
legislation injurious to, or for the eX-
elusive benefit of either section, the
city or the state-a situation that sufli-
GENTLY recommends itself.
If it is desired To continue the pres
ent system of minority representation,
it will be necessary to divide the state
into legislative districts, to be formed,
as now, of contiguous territory, and
substantially equal in population. Per
haps, however, we are about ready to-
abandon this method.
There is also another subject of
equal or perhaps greater Importance
taxation. Some 20 years ago or more
it was pointed out that the union of
state and local taxation in one system
was the cause of many OF the inequali-
ties and abuses that cucumber our rev.
enue system, and the remedy is the
divorce of this unnatural union. All
these years we have been travelling in
the opposite direction.
The state should collect its revenue
| from special taxes on corporations, cap
| ital stock, franchises, gross receipts,
either on all of these. inheritance taxes,
| license fees, and the like. This will
do away with the state tax on property,
and the state board of equalization, and
all its desperate attempts to accomplish
the impossible, to equalize the valua-
ton of property, and thus the amount
of tax. Each county may then assess
its property and levy taxes for local
purposes to suit itself, and its action
will affect no other county. II within
such narrow limits inequalities and IN
justice continue, it will be largely be
cause the people do not care, and they
alone will suffer.
These changes will require amend
ment or revision of the state constitu
ton. The process of amendment Is
slow and uncertain. A constitutional
convention for revision would seem to
be the proper thing. But whatever Is
to be done, the public must first be edu
Gated. The people must come to see
the Importance of the changes, and this
lis very largely the province of the
press. JOHN G. OSBORN.

Inasmuch as not only the above four
firms, but various other parties, have
