Tills' CAMPAIGN 01' ISS6.
Tim national republican committee
will begin the campaign of 1884 next
\Vedmmcaday by issuing its call for time
presidential 11oniinatimig convention
\\'hilo time committee cannot , in time nn
turn of timings , control time outcome of
the coining campaign , it is within its
power to influence the result , favorably
or adversely. The republican party will
outer upon tine race for continuing its
supremacy in national affairs with nu
ever chance of success , but much will do-
peid 111)011 tlto prelitimimiarios. ' 1'ho mia
tiounl committee is emnpoworcd to appor-
portiom time representation and fix the
number of the delegates that are to con ,
1)050 time convention. It will dotornimio
w heil 1111(1 where time con cmmtioi is to be
held. The probability is that the con ,
vcution will ho hold inn time early part of
June.1'liilo Indianapolis is ambitious
to obtain the honor , glory and profits of
a national convontiom , she is not likely
to be gratified. Indianapolis may ho
central enough , but sure limas a lamemtablo
lack of hotel acconniodations for a gntlr
ering of such magnitude. Time contest
will probably narrow down between Philadelphia -
adelphia and Chicago. Now England ,
I'emsylvnmiia , and possibly thu greater
part of the south , would doubtless give
Philadelphia the preference , but time
v'estorn states and the facile coast will
ho solid for Chicago.
The question of paaniomit importance
that will largely influence the choice of
time next convention is the apportion-
montof representation , heretofore each
state has been represented by two delegates -
gates for cnch senator or congroaamai
This system of rcpresontatiom has been
unjust because it represented population
instead of party , Kotmtticky , with her
70,000 democratic majority , lid 2'1 delegates -
gates in the last republican national coo
vention , while Iowa , witlm 70,000 republican
lican majority , hind but 22 delegates ,
Tmlissouri , which is overwimelmimmgiy
democratic , had 30 doiegatosamid l llimois /
overwhelmingly republican , had od y
24 delegates. Suclm at apportionunei t
placed time balance of power in time con
veimtion in the halide of time south , whor 0
time republicans hind no electoral votes
amid deprived the solidropublican ; states 0
time proper inllaeneo which they shoal ti
exert in t11o choice of the presidettia
candidates.
Senator Frye , who is a lnoimibor of tll 0
national committee from Maine , propose s
a now schomio of roprosommtatiomi , base
plainly on republican votes imstoal u
poptdmttiou. Uudor arr. Frye's ulna eacl
state would ho entitled to two doiegato s
at large for each aumator , nmo dclogat 0
for ouch congressioml dietrict , aid omm o
additiomi0l delegate to each district fo r
every ton tltousad ropublicam votes , mum i
Ohio for every majority traction of to n
thousand votes cast for Carfiold hi 1880.
This would greatly immcroaso the relative
power of the republican states and cu t
down the represontntion of time south um i
time next national eomvumitio11. Time pros
cut apportionniout would make at aggregate
gate of 820 delegates , of whom the north t
has 514 and the south 300. With a soli d
south in the convention any candidate
who could muster one-fifth of time north-
art representation wvould carry time tmon-
ination. Under Mr , , Fry'o's scheme th e
whole body would be bonposod . of 870
delegates , of whom tlmd north would have
631 and the south only 230 , If the
national committee is animated purely
by a desire to make the next national
convention a reprosontatwo body of the
party , it will adopt Mr. Fryo'n suggestion -
tion , or what would be bettor still n n
apportionmeit based strictly et the part
vote. There is , however , grave donb
whether the eoauittee will imaugurat
this much medod reform.
0 Last year a proposition very similar t
I that by Mr. Frye was ntado by Wmllinm
t E. Chandler , bmmt it was rejected becaun
0 many members regarded it as a move i
Y time interest of Mr. Blnimmo. Mr. Cha m

"Time presemmt freight discrimination

is having a very injurious ell'oct. Time
freight rate from Denver to Omaha is

It calm ho seen at a glunco howtlmeso rates
