LAYING OUT THE UNES|
For the Four Conversational Districts
Into Which the state of Florida
Must be Reapportioned by the Next
Legislature.
Ocala. Fla, September Is. ls1I.


Editor Star: As Florida has been
allowed another congressman. il will
become necessary for the legislature of
1913 to re-district the state into four
congressional districts: this is going to
be a nice or delicate job for some one
to undertake for reasons hereinafter
shown. The fight made in the legisla-
ture Of 1911 on the various bills then
before it, to re-district the state,
causes me to believe that the same
fight will develop again; having led
the fight for the present act, and hav
ing studied the question as to the
needs of our extensive coast lines. and
knowing somewhat the jealousies Of
the east and west coasts. etc, over ap-
propriatio from Congress and in or
der to prevent any one congressman
from having in his district counties
touching both coasts, the legislature
adopted my bill. which divided the
peninsular part of our state by line
running north and south; anticipating
the fight that is sure to come, l have
taken the time and prepared or made
the division touching both sides, and
expect to see one or the other adopted
and made into law.
1t is to be remembered that the pop
ulation should be as equally divided
into districts as possible, and the
number of counties taken into consid-
Grafton also, in order to make law
that will be fair and square.
The present population OF Florida is
1868
An equal division would be 1876
The number Of counties are A. or IL
to district.
Here is plan for four districts, in
line with the present division, to-wit:
First District-Hernando, Pasco,
Hllsborough, Polk. Manatee, DeSoto,
Lee, Monroe. Sumter, Lake and Os-
ceola, eleven counties with a popula-
tion Of 1S8,340.
Second District-Baker, Nassau, Du-
val, Clay, Putnam. ST. Johns, Volusia,
Orange. Brevard. ST. Lucie, Palm
Beach and Dade, twelve counties with
1882.
Third District-Escambia. Santa.
Rosa, Walton, Holmes, Washin gton,
Jackson, Calhoun, Franklin, Liberty.
Gadsden. Leon and Wakulla, twelve
counties with population of 19O,960.
Fourth Standardization. Madison
Hamilton, Taylor Lafayette, Suwanee,
Columbia, Alachua, Levy. Marion, Cit
with 1S8,487.
The above division is as near per-
fection as l can make it.fboth in popu-
lation and counties, the first district
having one less county than the 9TH
ers, but If Pinellas county comes into
being, then each district will have
twelve counties each. This arrange
ment will cause both Mays and Clark
some trouble, it will remove each
Of them out of their respective dis
tricts and place then in the same, but
in any bill jefferson county will have
to be cut out of the third, and Alachua
out Of the second.
The other idea of division could be
done like this:
First Distrct-Hillsboroug Polk.
Osceola, Brevard Manatee, DeSoto, St.
Lucie, Lee. Palm Beach, Dade and
Monroe, eleven counties with 185,938
Second District-Jefferson, Madison

Shooting Of STOLYP|N
In the Presence of the Gar, the Rus
sian was the Victim Of an
AssassinatiOn

kiev. Russia, Sept. 16.-The Russian
Premier P. A. Stolypin was attacked
while attending a gala performance at
the opera last night.
Stolypin was wounded twice. The
attack was made from behind by a
lawyer named Bogrof. One bullet en-
tered his hand, while the other PEN
etrated the body. grazing the liver
and lodging in the spine. He will
probably die. Emperor Nicholas was
present in the theater at the time.
This is not the first attempt made
against the life of Premier Stolypin.
When governor of Saratov, in 1905,
three shots were fired at him, but
without effect; on Aug. 25, 1906, a
bomb was thrown while Stolypin. then
premier, was holding a reception
al his country home on Aptewarsky
Island. The premier was slightly
wounded. Thirty-two persons were
killed and a still larger number
wounded, including the premier's Ia
yearold daughter and his three-year-
old SON
The Ocala evening star. [volume] (Ocala, Fla.) 1895-1943, 1911-09-16

Hamilton. Suwannee. Columbia, Baker.
Nassau. Duval. Clay and St. Johns. ten
counties with 192.0S3.
Third District-Same as first: twelve
counties with l9o.ss0.
Fourth District-Taylor, Lafayette.
Levy. Alachua. Bradford, Putnam. Ma
rion, Citrus, Sumter, Lake. fernando.
Pasco. Orange and volusia, fourteen
counties with 1s3,s5s.
You will notice that the third is the
same in both plans. A line must be
drawn at the eastern boundaries of
Leon and WakuIla counties, making all
west Of that line the third district. and
I know Of no one who will object TO
that, unless it is the then congress-
man.
The last mode of division is not so
nearly equal either in population or
counties. but there are some who Will
contend for that plan Of division.
do not like il for the reason. that the
congressman from both the first and
fourth will have east and west coasts
to look after, and I surmise that the
member from the first will get into
trouble with Key West or Miami or
Port Tampa or Tampa not liking what
the other port gets, probably TO its
disadvantages: likewise with the men,
ber from the fourth, with Palatka, Or
mand, and other places on one side
and Port Inglis, Cedar Keys, Crystal
River and other places on the west
side.
However, Mr.. Editor, if you think this
worth while, why give it to the public
and perhaps by agitation and sugges-
tions from others, the very best mode
Of re-districting can be arrived at,
prior to the meeting of the next legis-
lature. Very respectfully.
