OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
When Congress takes up the
question of reap! ortior ment of Rep
resentatives under the new census,
it will be brought face to face with
the problem of increasing the num
ber of Representatives or of the ratio
of representation. Already the House
has 357 members, and is a very un
wieldy body. The basis of reprsen
tition is, at present, one member for
every 173,000 constituents. Should
this ratio be maintained there will
be added to the membership of the
next House .about 56 members, mak
ing the totai membership 413. Aside
from the difficulty 7 of doing business
in a body of such proportions, there
would be the greatest difficlty in
seating 56 members in the present
chamber. There is roam for a hand
ful more than now sit in the chamber
but it will be impossible to add 50
seats with desks without taking up
all the space and leaving no room for
passage behind the railing. On the
other hand, to increase the ratio of
representation to 200,000, which
would leave the membership about
360, or almost the present figures,
might endanger the representation of
some States in the House, and would
certainly shift the lin es of some Con
gressional districts so as in many
cases to throw two members of t e
present House in the same district. It
ha« always been the custom !<> fix
the ra.tio of rejire.seiif i
to reduce the representation of any
State.
Plans for the Centennial of the
founding of the city of Washington,
which falls due next December, are
rapidly being consummated. These
plans, in provisional form, have al
ready been submitted to the Rresi
dent, who has signified his approval
of them. They aie designed to car
ry out the generai purpose of the
celebration as adopted by the nation
al committee on lecommendation of
the citizens’ committee, with the
approval of the President and Con
gress. The celebration will have per
manent as well as temporary features
Cor.giess has authorized the comple
tion of the plans for tiie enlargement
of the Executive Mansion, and lias
authorized the army 7 chief of engi
neers, to prepare a plan for the treat
meni of the Mall and its park con
nections. President McKinley, who
has shown suen a sympathetic inter
est in the proposed celebration, has
consented to give a reception on the
day in December to be selected,
when he will receive the Governors
of t he States and Territories and
other members of the 7 national eom
miitee, together with Senators and
Representatives, when it is hoped
that a model of an enlarged Execu
tive Mansion, as proposed in Colonel
Bingham's plans, will be exhibited in
the East Room, and brief appreciate
addresses will be made. Congress has
planned for suitable exercises on the
aft. moon of that .lay in the Senate
House, when prominent Senators
and Representatives will deliver
orations. The citizens’ committee is
to arrange for a noon-day military
and naval parade and for an evening
reception in honor of ihe distinguish
ed visitors.

poli!i.*al managers. A month iatcr, he
iisur 1 ly disappears so throughly that
everyone forgets that he ever existed
The ehances are that the campaign
this fall will be as exciting as usual,
even if it is not up to the phenomi
nal standard set in the last election.
Speaking without pai lisan bias, there
can be no doubt that a most exten
sive re-alignment of parties is going
oir in the country. The daily paper.s
are tilled with “flops” from each side
to the other and if is hard to tell
which party profits most by them.
Imperialism is a brand new issue,
having no relation to other issues
which have been brands of party
fealty, and the wisest poli.mans ad
mit that the vote at the last election
is no more a criterion of that whirl,
will be cast this fall that is tint >. > r
the election of 1800. It is eas,
enough to assert that imperialismj
amounts to everything or amounts
to nothing, but until the votes are
counted, wise men avoid making pre
dictions.
' His Life Was Saved
Mr. J. E. Lilly, a prouinont citizen o
Hannibal, Mo., lately had a wonderfu
deliverance from a frightful death. Iu
telling of it lie says 7 “I was taken with
Typhoid Fever, that ran into Pneumonia.
My lungs became hardened. I was so weak
I couldn’t even sit up in bed. Nothing
helped me. I expected to soon die of Con
sumption, when I heard of Dr. King’s
New Discovery. One dottle gave great re
lief. 1 continued to use it, and now am
well and strong, I can’t say too much in
its praise.” Phis marvellous medicine is
