OF course. when the democratic bill
makes its appearance in the senate 1t
will be entirely different from this one
and it may be counted on to seek to
make things easy for the democrats.
But there is little chance for a reap.
portionment bill to pass at this ses-
sion because the republicans control
the senate and the democrats have a
majority in the house. Any bill to be-
come a law must pass both houses,
and it is out of the question for either
Of these reapportionment bills to

LEGISLATIVE MEASURES.

There were over fifty bills introduc.
ed IN one branch.of.the legislature the
other day and more are being intro
duced at every session.
The average citizen in looking over
them wonders at the number OF laws
which would repeal those already In
ex1peance or modify them out Of all
recognition. The question Immediate
" arises whether or not a constantly
fuctuating set Of laws really does
much good. II the laws passed BY the
last legislature were ~ they should

them7 II on the other hand the meas
ures Of the present legislature are gu

be changed 1t the next session.
What we suffer from is too much
legislation. No sooner Is q board OF

MEASURES INTRODUCED
STRENGTHEN PARTIES
The Republican Bill Gives Mar.
ion County, Normally Re-
publican, Ten Instead ot
Eight Representatives.
Palladium Bureau,
INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. %.

Senator Springer, republican, has in
troduced the republican bill for the leg
islative reapportionment of the state
according to the vote at the last elec.
ton. Under the bill the republicans
would make heavy gains in the rear
rangement of the legislative districts
Senators Mccullough and Stotsen-
burg, democrats, are preparing the
democratic reapportionment bill which
will be presented to the senate in few
days.
Under the Springer bill Marion coun-
ty, which is normally republican,
would have ten representatives instead
Of eight. Lake county which is repub-
lican normally, would have one SEN
ator to itself and with Porter and
Newton would have another. At pres
ent Lake and Porter together have one
senator.
Destroys One District.
Another change in the senatorial
districts is that Tippecanoe and Ben.
ton would get one senator each where
as they have now one senator jointly
Johnson and Shelby now have one
joint senator. Under the Springer
bill Brown county democratic coun-
ty, would be taken from the district
of Brown, Jackson and Washington
and added to Johnson and Shelby
Jackson, Washington, Scott and Jen
nings would form one district. Floyd
and Clark would form one district in
stead Of Floyd and Harrison and Har-
rison would be added to the district
now made up of Dubois, Crawford and
Perry. The district of Gibson and
Posey would be destroyed, both OF
these counties joining Vanderberg
Warrick and Spencer in one district
These changes in the pocket would
drop one senator to make up for the
increase in Lake county.
In the representative districts De
Kalb is added to the present district
of Adams and Allen. Bento anG
Tippecanoe would form one district
instead of Benton and Warren and
Blackford, Grant and Delaware would
form one instead of Blackford, Gran,
and Wells. Delaware is a republican
county. To the district of Brown ant
Monroe which is democratic, Marion
county, normally a republican strong
hold would be added which woulC
probably make this a republican dis
trict. Crawford and Harrison woult
form a district instead of Crawford

To the Editor Of the Palladium

To the Editor Of the Palladium:
Seeing the report given in the Pal
ladium. Saturday evening, January 16,
by our county auditor, and comment
ed on as Benefits derived from In
come of Licenses to our Public
Schools" I find by reports given at
the court house that all Wayne coun
ty only receives $6,1O0.00 from the
licenses Of saloons, for school pur.
poses; also that upon careful calcula-
ton that this $6,100.0O will operate
the schools in Wayne county just Az
days. The increase to cover this in
taxes would be one-fifth of 80 on
each $4,000. Is it not reasonable to
say that as in other places the rooms
occupied by saloons will be used by
other business which will pay more
tax than the saloons to make up this
probable deficit df it should exist) ?
I wish to ask which is a Better Bust
ness Proposition" to lose AZ days OF
school or for the people OF Wayne
county to spend annually $450,000.0 90
for drink, at the very conservative es
innate of $500 per day, per saloon
which money is more than lost? Then
would not the increase OF legitimate
trade such as the dry goods store
clothing store, shoe store, meat shop
have such a volume of business di
verted to them from this $450,000 thai
it would be better business propo
sition," than to have the saloon thai

EORUMOF7HEPEOPLE
@ the Editor OF the Palladium:

To the Editor OF the Palladium:
"Vote the saloons out and you will
hurt the schools"
How many times day is that ad-
vanced as argument why Wayne coun-
ty should be voted dry at the coming
local option election? Kindly permit
me the use of your columns sufficietly
to discuss the proposition in fair
minded manner. BY the recent re-
port of the county auditor as it appear
ed in your paper. it was shown the
county derives $500 from the saloon
licenses for last year. This money is
distributed among the school corpor-
ations, townships, cities and towns.
Richmond received about one half of
the entire amount.
Now as a matter Of fact, just what
does $1,000 represent in the mainten-
ance OF our schools? With the pres
ent school levy a sufficient amount of
money has been raised each year to
supply our schools with the requisite
funds and leave balance. Men who
believe are authority upon the sub
ject say that the Richmond school
corporation has not been pressed SO
closely for funds at any time within
recent years that $1,000 would make
an appreciable difference. The balance
has been SO large that sum like
$1,000 has not been needed. Does this
look as if our schools would suffer if
deprived Of the $1,000 secured from the
liquor licenses issued by the county
Certainly it does not.
Now as to the townships. Each
township regulates it's own tuition
levy. One township is not dependent
upon another for the maintenance of
its schools. The weather. townships
secure a larger income by taxation
than the poorer, if the rate be the
same. That means of course the
wealthier township has better schools,
or the schools are run longer. Wayne
township is the wealthiest in the
county and look at school buildings
township is doing for it's schools. And
the 1908 distribution but $554.2O, as
its apportionment of the county liquor
license revenue. And Wayne town
ship receives more than any other.
Some townships of the county could
get along absolutely without the in
come from the liquor licenses. Their
school levy would not have to be in
creased and the schools would not suf-
fer any from the loss of the money.
In other townships a very small addi-
ton might become necessary. For
Wayne township an increase of about
cents might follow. Now would this
sum be any burden? It would mean
20 cents additional on a piece of prop
erty worth $1,000. Would the owner
increase the rent in order to raise the
extra 20 cents? If the rent were in
creased, it would mean 1 % cents per
month. Yours truly,
x. Y. z.

A NEW MISSING LINK.

1t is dull day indeed when Chica- go's scientific sharps fsil 70 make some startling discovery that sends a procession of cold chills down the spine Of the human race
 These sharps l1cently announced that away hack dn our family line we were lizards and existed in Texas l5.- 00o.00o years ago, hence we did not spring from the monkey. as the dis tinguished Dr. Darwin has led the world to believe.
 In view of inc fact that We were originally lizards. II IS reasonable to assume that in the process Of evolu- tion we took the higher form of the alligator and then began to rise stead fly to our present state, in which we bloom beautifully in frock coats and silk hats instead of claws and scales
 But it Is to be hoped for the sake of our peace of mind that the famous discoyerers of Chicago may not be able to produce the data necessary to convince the University of Copenhag- en or the Geographical Society of Washington of the correctness of the lizard theory.
 Millions of te have blushed with shame as we cast our eyes back over the family line and found ourselves looking into the luminous brown eyes Of big balloon and were compelled to salute him as great-great-great grandfather.
 We can stand this pretty well after pulling our nerves together and mus tering the required fortitude. but to De confronted with an ancestor in the form of a cold, clammy and wriggling lizard 1s entirely too much. and we protest Vehemontly. We eni4yhaticaily refuse to recognize the lizard as link in our family line We prefer to cling to the Darwinian theory.
