Sioux City. Nov. 21.--Possibility that
the next Legislature will be asked to re-
apportion the congressional districts of
the state is engaging the attention Of
politicians as result particularly of
the heavy vote cast in the Tenth and
Eleventh districts.
The Eleventh district representative
in congress this year will represent
more people than any other representa-
tive in the lower house The last state
census showed that the Eleventh dis
trict has population of 1859, an
increase of 34.525 over the population
recorded in the federal census five
years prior. The gain was the largest
made by any one district in the state,
and that gain was made emphatic in
the election returns on president gov
ernor and congressman, In all of these
contests the vote returned served to
astonish men who have been coming
the district returns for years past. De-
spite the fact that hundreds of ballots
on the congressional contest We're not
counted the totals had by the republic
can and democratic contestants alone
totaled nearly $4,000.
In Sioux City alone 1.I5S votes were
not counted on the congress fight, for
one reason or another, Reports had
from other towns and counties indicat-
ed that there was marked loss of
votes in the congressional contest as
compared with the presidential or gu
bernatorial votes, for instance.
Could Drop Three Counties.
Under the last apportionment made
by congress- each member of the lower
house was supposed to represent 211,-
ST. votes 1t will appear from this
that the Eleventh district has approx
mately $4,000 more people than the
district should have. Lyon Osceola,
Dickinson and Sioux counties could be
pared off the Eleventh district and still
leave a margin of 5000 over the figure
fixed by congress Ida. Sac and Mon
ona could be pared offfand the district
would still stand $4,000 above the fixed
figure.
