Population 81 the Stats VIII
Not Be Great Enough
for Ar1other One.
CONGRESS MAY ALTER
Population Size of the Con
gressional District But
Hardly Likely.


WASHINGTON, D. c.. Nov. Is
while one of the duties of the Dem
.ocratic legislature which will con-
vene in January vii be to redtstrici
the state for congressional districts
as well as for state senatorial, leg
islatiye and judicial districts, the
chances are that it will not have the
opportunity TO add new congress
sional district to the five now IN ex-
istence in West Virginia.
The Congress of the United States
apportions to eaeh state after the
taking Of each census the number
of members OF Congress it is entitled
to for the succeeding ten years, the
number depending upon the states
population and the average number
of people to a congressional district
in the nation at Large. It is the In
tention of the census bureau, Il
possible to complete the enumera-
tion OF the country by states before
the first of January, in which event
the present Congress probably would
make the new apporttonment. II
the completion of the count Is de-
layed byond that date, the chances
are that the next Congress will have
the apportionment to make. But in
either event the number of congress-
men will depend upon the census re-
turns, and while they have not been
given for West virginia. they may
be Appropriated.
At present one congressman Is al
lowed for about every 100000 Of
population. West Virginia with
95S, 500 population under the last
census has i've congressman. IT Is
the general opinion among congress-
men that the number of congress-
men is already suficiently large and
the House already sufficiently I'M
wfeldIy because of It's size. There
are 391 members and whether Re
publican or a Democratic congress
makes the new apportfonment It is
probable that not more than 400
members would be provided for.
While the population has increased
TO approximately 10000, 900, total
of 400 members would mean one to-
every 225,OOO population. at this
rate West Virginia would require a
of 1926 900 to retain it's
five congressman, or 1,45,O 900 to en-
title it to six congressman. A pop
ulation OF ,225. 900 would mean an
increase of almost % per cent. in
in ten years while pop-
ulation OF 100000 would mean a
growth OF about so per cent. The
Increase in population in. the state in
the decade from 1890 to 1900 was
about 20 per cent. and it is not
probable that in the last decade IL
has increased more than 20 per cent.
Hence there is slim chance for an
congressman for West
Virginia at this time.
