THE APPORTIONMENT VICTORY. Tt will he remembered that Con­ gressman John C. Sherwln, of this dis­ trict, gained a uto»t unviable reputa­ tion and a national prominence S3 leader in the forty-sixth congress. It is not tncessary to call the atten­ tion of our readers to the fact that tlie work of reapportioning the* several states Is one of very great political Im­ portance. In Saturday's Jnter-Ocean appeared th^ following special telegram: WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.--It Is believed that the apportionment bill agreed tA to-day for 320 member* wiH pa«s.-- Rhode Island. California andnFlorlda will lose one. but the Republicans are satisfied because *he loss is made up by gains in New York. Pennsylvania and Iowa. The number was increased from 319 to 320 through the pettftattouce of Congressman Sherwliii who Insisted on giving Illinois twenty-one instead of twenty member®. I'he Mil ?%reed on by the census committee prtvyides that" after the 3d of March, llilfl. the house of repiesentatives shall be com­ posed of 320 members, to be apportion­ ed atuou£ the several states. 04 follows: Members, Qlin.

As soon as this bill passes. and its passage soems to be a matter of little doubt, a special session of the state legislature will be called and the work of reapportioning Illinois will begin.-- Inasmuch as there is a Republican majority of thirteen in the state senate and eleven in the Jpwer house, it at once beco.nes apparent that the state will be ledistrlcted with oa view of strengthening the Republican repre­ sentation In congress, and tbererore the glory of Congressman Sherwin's victory in carrying tlie day and secur­ ing two additional members for Illi­ nois will at once bo apparent. It is a Reptrblicsu victory, not only of stste but national importance,and it should be remembered tliat this victory was won over such a man as S.'S. Cox, whose bills of 301 and 307 bave been forever buried. S. S. Cox has been a member of con­ gress for twentv-two years, having served in tlie 35th, 36th, 37th, and 38th congresses from the Columbus (Ohio) district, and afterwards removing to New York. I10 was elected from the sixth New York district to the 41st, 42d. 43d, 44th, 45th, 46tb, and 47th, con­ gresses, serving also as speaker pro tem of the house in 1876. Bearing in mind the fact that the census com- iiiittee was evenly divided as regsrds Republicans snd Democrats, and the latter factipn was headed by so old aud able a member as Mr. Cox, It at once becomes apparent that Mr. Mier- win lias an influence in congress which is felt, and telt in the best Interests of his constituents and the Republican P1""** _____ The Way They Ds It Oat West.
