To RE-DIsTR|CT STATE
First General Plan Submitted in
Bill introduced BY Sena-
tor Stewart
Special to Dally Leader.

GACtihl I'd iJdiig DtdAfl.
Oklahoma City, Jan. q The first
general plan for a redistricting of tie
state into senatorial and legislative
districts yet proposed is contained in
a bill introduced in the senate by
Senator w. p Stewart Of hugo The
situation as to the senatorial districts
is not greatly changed, except inso-
far as Is made necessary by the re
quiremeht that each district shall
elect but one senator A large nun
Der Of the districts now have two
senators. Oklahoma county gets two
senatorial districts and two senators,
being the only county so honored.
The districting OF the representa-
tives, however, contains a much more
complicated problem, being worked
out under the automatic apportion-
ment which was inserted in the con
stitution by c. n Haskell. That pro-
vision fixes the basis of population
for each representative at one-one
hundredth of the population of the
state, which will be iG,571 All the
counties having at least half of this
ratio are entitled to one representa-
tive Only two counties, Cimarron
and Harper, fall below this require
ment, and they are attached to
Beaver ana Texas counties respec-
lively
The larger counties are to get as
many representative as this ratio
show them TO be entitled to- In the
cast of counties that have consider
able population beyond the amount re-
quired for the number of representa-
tiyes they get, an arrangement is pro
yided by the constitutional provision
which allows them an additional rep
resentative at one, two, three or four
of the five legislatures during the next
decennium, according to the size OF
their margin above the full represen-
tatiye ratio.
The Stewart bill does not attempt
TO work out this problem, but merely
fixes the number of representatives
Tor the next session. and leaves il.
for either this legislature or some
subsequent one to adjust these in
equaltles. Oklahoma county gets five
representatives., the largest number all
lotted TO any county. Muskogee, Pot-l
tawatomie and Pittsbnrg three each,
and Brran, Catdo, Canadian, Carter,
Iomanche, Greek, Custer, Garfield,
3aryin, Grady, Hughes, Jackson, Kay,
I<iowa LeFlore Lincoln, Logan,
Fayne, Pontotoe, Sequoyah and Tulsa
wo each All OF the Others have one
zach, except for the combination
'imarronTexas and Beayer.Harper
districts.
