There was just one newspaper in the state of Minnesota that printed the story of Senator Dwinnell’s call for a caucus of the Republican mem- bers of the senate on the proposition of reapportionment, and that was the Bemidji Daily Pioneer. There is, of course, no more im- portant subject before the legisla- ture, or one in which the state at large is so keenly interested, as in reapportionment. The Pioneer leaves it with its readers to determine the enterprise of this paper in printing exclusive- ly the news of Senator Dwinnell’s effort to record the attitude of the senators belonging to the party which in the party platform and voice of its leaders has pledged and reiterated such pledge to a fair re- apportionment. That the caucus probably will not be held as a result of the “smoking out of the senators” on the Hackney resolution Thursday, does not in any way detract from the significent move of Senator Dwinnell. In the Thursday evening edition of the Minneapolis Journal—twenty- four hours after the call had been published in full in the Pioneer— mention of a call is made and in a still later issue the St. Paul Dispatch arouses itself to a point where it obtained and printed the call, and dwells upon its importance to the future welfare of the Republican party.

By a vote of 31 to 29, the senate yesterday refused to place the Congdon resolution, apportioning on a basis of population, on the calen- dar. Three senators, Rogkne, Poeh- ler and G. H. Sullivan were absent. A'l cf them are supposed to oppose reapportionment as it is planned in the Congdon resolution. By this vote, 723,026 people out voted 1,279,- 492, The 31 senators who voted against the resolution represent, on an average 23,323 people each. Those who voted in favor of the re- solution represent, on an average, 41,120 people. That is a ratio of almost two to one. “The figures, prepared in the rooms of the committee on reappor- tionment, show that the champions of reapportionment are facing. The figures are startling, but they tell the story of the present inequality in representation in the Minnesota they exist today. Popular government is based on a majority rule. It does not follow that the majority is always right, but it is presumed to be right. legislature, as 279,492 people are outvoted by 31 representing 723,026 people, it shows that since senator- ial courtesy has eliminated from the senate, nothing has been substituted in its place. . “Even among the districts whose senators voted against the resolution there are inequalities of population.
