Under the tion the number of Representatives ed one for every thirty thousand 0 the population, but our country has long since grown past that ratio. In the new apportion- ment the ratio of representation shouid be lo- creased rather than to increase the number of members of the House, and on this very ques- | spe ton will probably occur a sharp contest. ‘Those states which will lose a member or so by @n inerease of the ratio will, no doubt, oppose it, because of a very decided objection to seeing thelr Lumber of members reduced. But there is uO good argument in favor of increasing the umber of members, while there are several reasons against {t. In the first place the present full of Representatives cannot be en- larged to a uimodate any additional mem- bers unless the plan that has been sugzested, of removing the desks. be carried out. In fact, with the desks In the House, the metnbers as at Present are rather crowded for elbow room. It certainly cannot be maintained that it would add to the dispatch of business to increase the membership. On the contrary, it would retard business. The House now con- tains so many members that {tis very diMcult and sometimes impossible (as witness Tuesday's proceedings) to matntsin order, With very few exceptions, each member has bis special sub- Jects upon which he must deliver speeches at every session, and tnis speaking occupies more than half the time of Congress. To increase the number of Representatives is to increase the number of speeches that must be delivered, and tnis {s to prolong the sessions. While the | few states whose representation will be shorn a little under an increased ratto will not like tt, that fs altogether the best plan for the coua- | try. - ‘The average net, earnings of a steeping car, Which costs about $1,000 per month, and the ordinary working Iie of one of them ts | from ten to twelve years.

Mrs. Cross, whose maiden mame was Marian Evans, was more generally known by her nom de plume ot George Ellot. For some years she bore the name of Lewes, the English author, with whom she lived. She was born in i520, and was consequently about sixty years old.
