NEW YORK WORLDS THREAT

The New York World continues to
parade the bugaboo of reduction of
southern representation before the
democratic gaze in the hope of fright
ening southern democrats to desert Mr..
Bryan. 1t calls attention to the pending
Kcifer bill which reduces Alabama from
nine representatives to five, Arkansas
from seven to five, Florida from three
to two, Georgia from eleven to six,
Louisiana from seven to three. Mississip-
pi from eight to three, North Carolina
from ten to six. South Carolina from
seven to three, Tennessee from ten to
eight, Texas from sixteen to twelve,
Virginia from ten to eight. Such Il
measure, says the World, would mean Il
loss to the south Of thirty-seven repre-
sentatives in congress and thirtv-sevcn
presidential electors.
What would he left of the demo-
cratic party2" inquiries our contem-
porary.
We have heard all this before. AS
long ago us 1896 the Galveston News
not only warned us of the possibility of
the proposed reduction, but actually adj
vocated it. SO great was its fright dur
ing that campaign that Bryan might he
elected, it offered this remedy rs n flu
ture safeguard against democratic sue
cess.
But suppose the Keifer bill should be
come Il law How would that destroy
the democratic partyr Suppose i'll 1892
the south's representation had been re-
duced according TO the Keifer plan.
Grover Cleveland would still have had
Il plurality in the electoral college Of
nincty-ive. While it is possible that
the party might suffer in close elections,
of late years close elections have disap
peared. \ democratic wave in the
north and west would wipe out the
small advantages the republicans might
gain by reducing the southern repre-
%sentatiOn. And then there is the prob
ability that such Il revolutionary idca us
the Galveston News Sd s~trenuously adj
yocated, and which General Kcifer pro-
poses, would iniure the republican party
more than it would the democrats,
because the conservative people of the
north would oppose the party that pro-
posed it.
This year, however, the democracy
of the entire country will endeavor to
quiet the alarm of the World by elect
idg Bryan. Certainly a contingency
like that ought to be welcome to an ''in-
dependent" journal so anxious about the
existence of the democratic party

To Utilize Saaebrush

Sylvester Sparkling, an employe of the
Reid, Murdoch company of Chicago,
has patented a process that will convert
the %sagebrush of the great barren
western wastes into millions of money
and utilize it in n scientific way. A
company of Hammond. Indiana, bus
mess men will incorporate for ii quarter
of II million dollars to subscribe for the
erection of a plant i'm Nevada which
will make the utilization of sagbrush
possible. The product to be derived
from the western weed is potash, OBJ
tanned now from wood by the Sparkling
process. Sixty-one per rent of potash
is found in sagebrush ashes, where
wood ashes contain only 81 por cent.
This is due to the fact that the desert
plants take up more mineral than those
which do not grow in I'm alkaline soil.
In addition to potash, wood alcohol, oil
