The Apportionment
The apportionment bill which we
print elsewhere scents to be about the
beet the Detnograey in the Senate and
Muse could do. It is, of course, not
altogether satisfactory to us, but at the
same time it is riot satisfactory to the
Radicals. In racy he bitterest opposi
Boa it met with canto from them, a n d
they would have willingly squelched it
could they have gotten any better terms
from the Democrats. But although
the latter were not able to get just
what they wanted, and what in corn
mon justice they ought to have had,
they nobly stood their ground and pre
vented tire Radicals from getting what
they wanted, 111111 what in common
Justice they ought no/ to have had.
The bill, as reported by the Confer
envy committee and adopted by the
Legialathre, is a kind of compromise
between the opposing and conflicting
-dements, its initch its to say "it you
give us that, we will give you this ; or
if you will agree to do this, we will
agree to do that." It 18 based upon
the vote of IF,CO, and gives the Radi
cals seven 0( a majority on joint hal
lot—one in the Senate and six in the
(louse. '('lire et first glance looks tin
fair, and it really is unfair, but it is a
vast improvement upon the apportion
ment of IHBd , tattler which vte have
been suffering for the last soca years
The Rathcala wanted and expected to
get about six maturity In (lie Senate
, and lifterin or twenty in the (louse, but
the vigilant watchfulness if the lie
mocracy has reduced those figures to
one in the Senate and six in the (louse.
This is considerable of a triumph, and
shows that our senators and represen
tatives have been true to their duty.
Nobody feels this so menstb'y as the
Radicals themselves, and they are but
