REolsTRIcT STATE AND CITY.

Redistribution of Illinois twenty-five
Congressional and nfty.one Senatorial
districts, II Is generally believed In
political circles, will be undertaken
soon after the Fiftieth General AS,
sembly convenes in January.
Discussion OF the question Is eX.
pected to reopen the old controversy
over what shall be done to restrict
Chicago's representation In the Legis.
lature.
A possible compromise between
Chicago and the downstate members
was suggested by one Republican
Senate leader today.
1T might be possible to adopt
something like they have in New
York." said the senator. There, I
understand, New York City's repre-.
sentation in the lower house Is not
restricted, but its membership In the
Senate is limited to 40 per cent"
The Republicans now have clear
majority In both houses, and that
party's leaders In each are known to
believe the time to cut up the state
into new congressional and legisla.
tive districts is opportune.
A Council subcommittee now Is at
work on plan to redraw Chicago's
thirty'five ward lines.

ARGENTINA'S NEW PRESIDENT

Hlipolito 1rigoyen, the recently in
augurated president of Argentina
heads the first radical administrator
in that country. He was elected prcsi-
dent because u majority of the voters
trusted him. personally, implicitly
and blindly. Those who believe in
him consider him Argentina's greatest
man. His opponents regard him us ex-
trcmcly dangerous and look forward
to his administration with the gravest
misgivings.
Doctor Irigoyen is about sixty, a
tall, powerfully built, imposing man,
and very dark. His blood is Spanish
Basque, with a slight Indian strain,
some say.
He began life poor. He Is sclf-cd-
ucatcd and highly cultivated man.
lie is now very rich, the result of land
transactions. By occupation he is Il
ranchman on Il huge scale. with very
modest residence in Bucnos Aires.
