than one.fourth OF the. counties to
control legislation and will place the
entire state at the mercy OF certain
selfish and vicious interests In the
big cities. BY this plan the big cities
will have q majority of senators and
representatives, and cut down the
representation from the rural sections
of the state.
Section one of the proposed amend
ment provides that the whole popu-
latlon OF the state shall be divided
by "ffty" and the quotient shall be
the ratio Of representation In the
house of representatives for ten years
next succeeding such apportionment.
Section three provides that the
whole population OF the state shall be
divided by the number twenty-five
and the quotient shall be the ratio
of representation In the senate.
You will observe that the scheme
is to have the present legislature re-
district tue state. ono"io '"e' '
ceed in the scheme, each county
would not have a representative as
at present, but each block OF $4,000
people would have member OF the
house, while 1t would require 2lS,O0C
people to be entitled to a state sen
ator. Under the proposed amend
ment the eight largest counties
would have eighteen OF the fifty rep
resentatives. Thirty-one of the fift'
members of the house would come
from twenty-one counties having thu
largest cities. which would give then
a good working majority. The rura
influence would be almost completel!

ment revolutionary and dangerous to
the people of the state. think that
it is conceded that as rule the big
cities send to the legislature men who
need the restraining and conserva-
tive influence of the members Of the
rural counties. In the last session OF
the legislature, and no doubt many
others, the honor and credit Of Ohio
was saved because the city delega-
ton was not strong enough to con-
troll the legislature.
It would certainly be unwise and
( dangerous to subordinate the rural

non-effective.
