CONGRESS

Chicago, July 16-A special from
Washington says:
The new census promises TO preci-
pitate political and sectional contro
versy of vital interest 10 the people.
BASED upon the population it repre-
sents, congress Will have to determine
whether the house OF representatives
shall be numerically enlarged, which
VIII make the body more unwiedly,
OF whether the aggregate OF persons
entitled Ito a member of congress
shall be in creased, which will mean
that the house will retain it's pres
cnt membership and possibly may be
re Teduced
Some states, if the latter plan Is
adopted. will lose representation in
congress through a dimunitition Of
population during the last ten years,
while others are certain OF an in
crease, due to the growth in the
number of their inhabitants The
present ratio OF apportionment is one
member for every 149 900 inhabitants.
The present house constitutes 39I
members,
II congress were TO adopt for the
present census the ratio OF appor.
tioDment observed In 1900. the house
would be increased by GS members
1bis would bring the total member-
ship up TO s60.. 1t is not expected,
however that this ratio Will be main
tanned.
1t is expected that when the ap-
portionment bill is considered, the
number OF members OF the house
will be fixed at one for every 225,000
This would mean that the house
would remain practically at its pres
ent figure,
A hard fight undoubtedly will be
made against the adoption Of such
large ratio, especially by sparsely
settled portions of the country and
by those who fear that emigration
further will reduce the population
The more thickly settled states prob
ably will raise no objection to a
proposition OF this kind, and indeed,
would be declined t favor it, since
1t would insure a relatively larger
representation.

DROUGHT

Washington, July l6.-The drought

turalists have expected for long
time. said Acting Secretary Hays Of
the department of agriculture today.
Many OF us knowing that the west
had suffered from cycles of drought,
believed that these cycles would again
hamper the farmers there, but the per-
iod of many years during which rain
fall has been regular caused the peo-
pie to forget The real condition that
faced them,i continued Mr.. Hays. who
was farmer In Minnesota before be-
coming assistant secretary of agricul-
ture, and who Is especially familiar
with the wheat country of the north
west fftr-l
Real estate boomers have sought
to minimize the danger from drought
in the west and they have talked that
way for so many years during which
the rainfall has been regular. that
many came to believe that there was
no longer danger OF that kind for

PEARYs FAREWELL TO MARVIN.

"se Careful of the Leads" His Last
AdmonitIon.
AS all the world knows, Ross G..
Marvin was the only man OF Peary's
successful polar expedition to sacri-
flee his life. The pathetic details of
Peary's final goodbye to Marvin are
found in the commanders narrative
In the July issue of Hampton's Mag
azine. He says:

Marvin, with Kud-look-too and
"Harrigan." one sledge and seventeen
dogs, started south at $50 O'Clock
No shadow OF apprehension for the
future hung over that parting. II
was clear, crisp morning, the sun
light glittering on the Ice and snow,
the dogs were alert and active after
their long sleep. the air blew cold
and fresh from the polar void. and
Marvin himself, though reluctant TO
turn back. was filled with exultation
that with the exception of Bartlett
and myself. he alone of all white mon
had entered that exclusive region
which stretches beyond Sc degrees 81
minutes north latitude
Il shall always be glad that Marvin

lew days. AS We tramped along to-

by a strange coincidence, soon
after Marvin left lis on his fatal jour
ney back to land, the sun was obs
scured and dull, lead-colored haze
spread over all the sky. The light
was gray and shadowless; it was Inn
possible to see for any distance. That
shadowless light Is not unusual on
the ice fields OF the polar sea; but
this was the first occasion on which
We had encountered 1t since leaving
the land. A more CHASTITY and corpse
like atmosphere could not have been
imagined-sky and ice seeming Ut
terly attenuated and unreal.

The west Is really much better
country than many agriculturalists be-
lieyed. but We faced the fact that
these cycles OF drought will rccur and
farmers must finance their farms in
such conservative way as to have
surplus money with which to face
these periods of non-productiveness
in good years In the new sections of
the west. the farmers profit has been
large. in some cases so great as to
permit him TO pay for his land in
single year. In the long run they will
obtain satisfactory returns, but they
must face the situation as it is and
come to look upon the cycle OF
drought as one of the recurring con-
dltions"
