Minneapolis, Nov. 20. The apportionment of representatives iu congress, based on the census of 1900, is one representative for each 194,1S2 inhabitants, the number of males of voting age varying largely iu the districts, but a general average in the United States is one male of votingage for each 3.0 inhabitants, or 53,-

age were not heard from'm that eTeff, tion: -v: ,--. i: . . Mississippi, with 349.177 males of voting age, cast but 18,05S' votes for representative . to congress in- 1902, or about 5 ier cent of males' of voting 'age. ' The average vote per district in all the northern states"' was over 35,000 and the average vote in all the southern states was 10,400. The average vote in "West Virginia was 37,715, but it will be noted that West Virginia elected all Kepublican representatives. Indiana and Louisiana. The average vote per congressman in Indiana was more than the total vote east for the fifteen congressmen in Louisiana and Mississippi, t 'Louisiana has 7 'congressmen, Flor id has 3, Mississippi has 8, South Carolina has 7, yet neither of these states cast a total vote as large as the lowest vote cast in any one district in Indiana. If the average vote per congressman in Mississippi applied to Indiana, there would be 259 'representatives from this state instead of 13. With--Mississippi's average, Kansas would have 124 representatives instead of 8, and Colorado would have 82 representatives instead of 3. With the exception of'the''3d and 12th districts, any one of the districts of Indiana had a larger vote than the seven districts of Arkansas, the three districts of Florida,

A small per cent of these are not the seven districts of Louisiana, the

The vote the eight districts of Mississippi or per district, east for representative ' the eleven districts of Georgia, in congress in 1902 varies greatly, as Oregon Avith but two representu will be shown by a glance at the ac- tives had a larger vote than Georgia company i rig table.

total of 2,320,490 malos of voting age, but the total vote cast for congressman in these seven states in 1902 was but 203,349, or but 11.4 per cent. In the seven states above mentioned were 1,051,202 males of voting age who were . of negro' descent and in the total number (white and colored) were '731,571 illiterates. "'- ! It is a well known fact thai there are many illiterates among the whites in - these seven states, but, assuming tliat the illiterates were all among the colored people, there still remains 319,091 negroes who would be entitled to a vote even if an educational jualification were applied, or 55,342 more than the total vote east in these states. The Maryland Platform. The. existing condition is plainly set forth in the platform by the Democratic state convention of Maryland in 1903, viz.: "We believe that the political des tinies of Maryland should be shaped and controlled by the white people of the state, and whilo we disclaim any purpose to do any injustice what ever to our colored population, we

declare without reserve our resolute purpose to preserve in every conservative and constitutional way the political ascendency of our race." The" solution of the difficulty is

strongly -set forth in the platform

adopted by the Republican convention in Ohio in 1903, viz.: "We bold fast to the doctrine of equity -everywhere in the exercise of the elective franchise, maintaining that justice- requires any state excluding any of its citizens from the ballot tobc proportionately reduced in its representation in the electoral college and the lower house of the national congress."
