Minnesota Lawmakers Once More XIII
Reapportionment.
The state senate has again de-.
clared against reapportionment. The
G. p. Wilson resolution, limiting legis-
lative membership to 63 senators and
1926 representatives. was beaten in
committee of the whole, 81 to Is. On
a roll call later it was lost again, 20 to
81. In the general debate friends OF
reapportionment made it plain that
the vote would be test and while op.
ponents of the resolution denied it the
result is generally regarded as indicat.
ing that reapportionment is impossible
at this session.
Is With one lonely vote against it the
house passed the 1-mill road tax bill
and with two votes in opposition
passed its companion measure, the
highway commission bill. These are
the measures drafted by Robert c.
Dunn of Princeton and introduced by
the committee on roads and bridges.

NEXT HOUSE NEARLY A TIE.
Will Be Very Close, According to Re-
cent Canvass.

In an article in Success Magazine
based on confidential information as
to political conditions in each Of the
391 congressional districts of the Unit
ed States Edward r. Higgins says:
3. 1.-THE next house of representatives
will be almost exactly in even balance.
The probabilities are slightly In favor
of Republican majority of Two or
three. but it is impossible to predict
With certainty which Of the two par
ties will organize the house. -
There will be Il large increase IN
the Democratic membership. but there
will be no Democratic landslide.
1.-The explanation of this rather un
expected result appears to be that the
progressive wing of the Republican
party has come into power ut the pri.
maries in IL very large proportion Of
the Republican districts. while in
many of the districts where the stand
pat element retains control Of the Re-
publican machine the normal Repub
lican plirAlitirs are so large that tho
stand pat candidates are likely to sue
coed. although by greatly reduced ma
forities Both wings of the party are
now diligently engaged in their historic
occupation Of 'burying the Ratchet
"In other words. the heretofore gen.
orally expected Democratic success in
the closer districts Of the country has
been put in jeopardy by the nomina-
ton of more or less popular insurgent
Republican candidates. and informa.
ton received by us indicates that
there will be little Republican boiling
in such districts"

Topeka, Kans., Sept. 27.-With the
Kansas insurgents clearly aligned
against him, President Taft today
entered the regular" district, the home
of Senator Curtis. Kansas politicians
today were certain that Senator Bristow,
the La Toilette leader in the state, IN
his speech at Hutchinson yesterday,
served notice on the president that the
insurgents will goon seeking the right
their own way, which is not Taft's
way"
Senator Curtis, Gov. Stubbs and Re-
publican National Committeeman Null
vane, who travelled with Mr.. Taft today,
made political medicine. Curtis and
Stubbs frankly frted for Taft's sup
port against each other for the senator
ship. Mulvane worked to strengthen
the Taft machine in the state. Brls-
tow conferred with his lieutenants along
the way, Despite the fact that big
crowds have greeted the president in
Kansas, the insurgents declared today
that he has not strengthened himself
by his speeches. The president played
his sixth b, eak:ast performance on the
Country Club circuit today, the Topeka
County Club rounding out the half
dozen.
The dedication OF memorial dag
pole, parade, cornerstone laying
and speech were on his programme
here, where lie was the guest of the
state G. A. r. encampment.

the president will appear today, will
