BEKJIABD, WILMINGTON, N. C. Vkijnks:a Morning, Dec. 24,1890 THE DUNNELL APPORTIOOTffEHT The Dunneli Apportionment bill, which passed the House of Repre sentatives last week, after a few hours not of debate but of protests by membersof Congress against the injustice done their States by the 1'orter census, is as near a partisan apportionment as it could well be made under a partisan census. Some Democrats voted for it not because they approved of it entirely, but because they thought it was about the best apportionment that could be made under the census returns. I This may be so, but the fraud in the matter was in making the appor tionment on the census returns without giving the States which had established beyond reasonable doubt that injustice had been done them, a i opportunity to have the wrong righted. An effort was made to secure a recount of the cities of New York and Brooklyn, which failed, and then an effort was made 'to have the city of New York allowed 'an additional r )- :s-t. tt -tt! ve if a recount should :i :; i.i it was entitled to 150,- 'i hjtc population tHan she is cre dited with ; but this was voted down also, and the bill was passed under the caucus decree after a few hours' talk, which it is an abuse of speech to call a debate Whether the census was fruudu lent vr-not, from tbe way this thing iias been managed and the haste with which it has been run through - i it would be very dimcult to con vince any considerabfe portion of the public that the census was not a fraudulent job, and that this appor tionment, built UDon it, is not also fraudulent. Under it the House of Representatives next elected will number 35G members, 24 more than at present. The following table will show how the electoral college would stand now, how it will stand under the new apportionment and the gain in the States where gain is made. Present New States. Number.

Whether they can do this or not, depends altogether on the use the 52d Congress makes of the vic tory won at the last flection. If that Congress meets public expecta tion and shows that it is in full sym pathy with the people, there is not much danger of our not being able to hold the States which revoked last November against the exorbi tant tariff and wild extravagance ot the 51st Congress. The fight will be mamiy upon the tar iff then, as it was in the past campaign, and if the Democratic Congress which succeeds the gango' conspirators which created the pop ular disgust which relegated so many Republican statesmen makes a good record on that, by taking it up and amending the most objectionable features, one by one, as has been suggested by Senator Vest, with "a nominee for the Presidency whose record is positive as a reformer there is no reasonable doubt that the Democratic party will sweep States enough to elect a large ma jority in the 53d Congress, and th President by a decisive majority Only blundering can defeat us. ant there is not much danger of that. MINOR MENTION. Mr. Hiofgis, Republican, of Dela ware, ventilated his views in the Senate on the Force bill Monday. His speech was of the stereotype order, with the exception that he expressed the opinion that the Dem ocratic leaders in the South could have had the colored vote at any time simply for the asking, and asked the reason why they had not done so. If Mr. Higgins had been born and raised in Alaska, or the Sandwich Islands, or some other re mote part of terra firma, this inquiry might not have been- absrd, but coming frrm a man born and raised in this country, with ample 'oppor tunities for observation and infor mation it gives evidence of the most obtust stupidity. If he knew any thing about the South and the col ored voters for whom he essayed to sneak, he should know, as Senator Regan reminded him, that for a negro to vote the Democratic ticket in the South is to invite ostracism and persecution by h'rs race, and that they who do so are looked upon and treated as renegades. i ne union L-eajrue wnicn was organized during the days of reconstruction took them fn by the thousand, and bound them by iron-clad oaths which bfhd thousands of them still. One of these oaths was that they would support the Re publicaa party and never vote the Democratic ticket. There are some whose eyes have been since opened and who have a better conception of the true inwardness of the Republi can party now than they had when they took the obligations of the - League, who would vote independ ently and according to their judg ment if they did not feel that they were bound by these obligations. For this reason and the ostracism and the persecution to which the colored man who votes the Demo cratic ticket subjects himself, Mr. Higgins would have no difficulty in catching on to the reason if he really is in the dark, why the Democratic leaders had not "coralled," as he ex presses it, the blacks. Being a Re publican of sufficient prominence in his party to represent it in the Senate Mr. Higgins should know more about the peculiar methods of his party as practiced in the South. Hypocrisy is one of the character istics of the Harrison administration. Senator Voorhees, of Indian , showed this up conclusively in his rasping speech Monday, when reviewing that portion of the President's message which urges the passage of the Force bill to insure fair elections, he illus trated its hypocrisy by calling atten tion to the plot to colonize some of the close States North with negroes from the South, 5,000 of whom were to go into Indiana, Mr. Harrison's State, which plot was exposed by the New York World, and of which Mr. Harrison had full knowledge and to which he had presumably given his approval, because one of tbe principal workers in it was one of his intimate friends, whom he had i appointed Treasurer of the United States, who was heartily in favor of it and promised his fellow plotters to speak tc the President about it. Since the exposure M. Huston retains his place as Treasurer and his cordial relations with the President remain " unbroken. Here is a man occupying tbe high position of President, while hypo critically talking about fair elections, stooping to engage through his close personal friends in an infamous plot to defeat the will of the people of his own and other States by a base plot to colonize negroes to use as voters in the next Presidential election, and one of these plotters was Mac D. Lindsay, a man of notoriously infa mous record, who figured in North Carolina during the Holden-Kirke ar. Mr. Harrison might be above associating with him, but he is not above becoming a olotter with him. When Senator Voorhees starts out to dismantle frauds and hypocrites and expose the fraud and hypocrisy he generally succeeds. The peculiar phraseology of Sen ator Higgins inquiry in his speech on the Force bill Monday, when he asked why the Democrats of the South had not secured the colored voters, is worthy of note, as showing he estimate a RepuDlican Senator juts upon the colored people of this ection of the country. "He had al-A-ays considered," said he, "that one ,jreat service which the Democratic narty have rendered was its corral ling and bringing into its fold all :cop!e who from nativity and other .ircumstances were least fitted to erform the functions of American citizens, and why had not Southern vhite Democrats done the same with he blacks?" Corralled is the word lsed by Western cattle men when hey drive their cattle into en ;losures, and is here used in a con emptuous way to express his opin on of the character of voters "cor--alled" by the Democratic party. 4e follows this up by an indirect corn prison between the colored voters of the South and other "corralled" people who are "least fitted to per form the functions of American citi zens," and virtually admits that the blacks of the South are of this class. He as much as asserts, also, that they have no political principles or convictions when he says that the Democratic leaders could have had their votes at any time for the ask ing. This is the estimate which a Republican Senator puts upon the colored voters of the South, who constitute ninety per cent, of his party in this section, and it is to put these on top of the white man that he is pleading for the passage of the infamous Force bill. STATE TOPICS. The Scotland Neck Democrat says that a Philadelphia party has been making inquiry as to certain tracts of R-oanoke lands, their purpose be ing to buy thirty-five thousand acres with a view to starting a stock tarm. The Roanoke lands are among the most productive in the State, but for some reason they have been neg lected and permitted to run down. The Democrat is doing a good work in calling attention to them and in persistently keeping them before the public. CURRENT COMMENT. If the victory of the Farmers' Alliance and the Democrats in Kan sas meant anything that it it pre tended to mean Senator Ingall's hope of a re-election will prove to be the palest sort of an iridescent dream. iV. Y. World, Dem. Alliance men, by resolution, threaten to ignore and utterly "boy cott" all newspapers which manifest an unfriendly tendency. But what is an "unfriendly tendency." Papers that oppose the sub-treasury bill, for example, are better friends of the Alliance than papers that favor it. Mobile Register, Dem. Republican Senators need not look to Mississippi to find a chance to inveigh against the disfranchise ment of voters, who cannot pay a poll tax or read or understand a sec section of the State Constitution. They might investigate Senator Hoar's State, and in that common wealth they would find exactly that abridgment of the franchise that they are so ready to condemn in a Democratic State. N. Y. Star,Dcm. If about Four Hundred of the statesmen whose phosporescence makes this country luminous could be persuaded that they will be tooth less and hairless before they can reach the Presidency we might be happy yet, you bet.. This remark has a far away reference to one or two gentlemen who are trying to play the role of aurora borealis in New York State. N. Y. Herald, Ind.

Fhycieiaa Iijrnpli Said to ts IdenUcaTWitb the German's. New York, Dec 19. Dr.- H. H. Curtis, who made the first experi ments with Dr. Koch's lymph in this city, has received a letter from Ber lin saying that the greatest consider ation has been shown by Dr. Koch to Dr.-Dickson, the bacteriologist of the University of Pennsylvania, and that Dr. Dickson, by invitation of Dr. Koch, had a personal interview with the latter, lasting several hours. The letter also said that Dr. Dick son had been treated with marked connesy and entertained most hos pitably by the Berlin physicians, on account of his having antedated Professor Koch in his published ex periments regarding the cure of tu berculosis in the guinea-pig by at tenuations made from the tubercle bacillus. The interest shown by Dr. Koch in Dr. Dickson and the minuteness with which he caused him to tecount the details of his experiments, it has been assumed by many German physi cians, writes Dr. Curtis's informant, the lymph used by Dr. Dickson and that used by Dr. Koch are nearly identical. An article published by Dr. Dickson in response to an attack made upon him as a pretender and a rival of Dr. Koch was so well re ceived that the paper containing it was announced by extra bulletins in Berlin. Dr. Curtis has also been informed that an additional supply of lymph, sufficient for about 10.000 injections, is on the way to him from Berlin. Paris, Dec. 19. Dr. Petit has pro duced before the Society of Practi cal Medicine of Paris specimens of a lymph invented by himself, which he claims will produce results m tuber cular diseases identical with those produced by synthesis. Its appear ance is exactly similar to the lymph prepared by the Koch formula. AS FINE AS SILK. , 4,000.000 Strands of a Spider's Web to Equal a H&ir. Pittsburg Telegraph. "As tine as silk is a common phrase to typify extreme fineness or delicacy of texture. But if you want a simile that will discount that one say "As fine as a spider's web." There is nothing of textile kind so fine as that. The strand spun by a spider is as much smaller than a thread of silk as the latter is smaller than a telegraph pole. This seems like exaggeration when you casually look at a spider's workmanship and then at the silk-worm. But vou never saw a single strand in the spi der's thread. The strands are so fine that you can't see them with the naked eye. What you really see when you look at the spider's delicate thread is a cable composed of thou sands of strands, and the way the little animal makes this cable is one of nature's greatest wonders. If you' look closely at a spider during its business hours you will see that its thread comes from a cir cular spot near the extremity. In this spot are from 'four to six knobs, the number depending upon the kind of spider. If you happen to have a particularly good pair of eyes you can distinguish these knobs Each of the knoDs is full of minute holes, so small that a good micro scope is necessary in order to see them. Through these holes the delicate strands are spun. About an eighth of an inch from the holes the strands are joined together, and the result is the spider's thread, with which all of us are so familiar. One authority on this subject. Reaumer, calculated that it would take 1,000 spider strands to occupy a space equal to the point of a needle, while another, Leuwenweck, esti mated that it would take 4,000,000 of them to make a thread as large as a hair. ALUMINUM. It Seems to be the Coming Metal. The South. Aluminum isalmost faultless as a metal, excelling both iron and steel, in that it is mocfinalleable and duc tile than the baser metals and that it does not rust on exposure to the air It is stronger than steel, while weigh ing two-thirds less than that metal, and its production has become al most cheap enough to admit of its use in every day life, the cost of making it now being only about five cents a pound. It has, moreover, a remarkable affinity for other metals. What is known as aluminum bronze has a breaking strength, it is claimed, of 310,000 pounds as against the steel-breaking strength of 81,000 pounds, and hence when we get to building bridges of aluminum or an alloy of aluminum, as we must do before very long, we shall have struc tures only a third as heavy as those of the present day, and yet much stronger. Aluminum rails, it is said further, will not suffer granulation,which is the most serious danger to which iron and steel rails are subjected, and thus when the new metal is applied to railway econ omy, it offers all the advantages of being stronger, lighter and more perfect than other metals, while at the same thne it is indestructible from oxidation, fire or granulation, and when alloyed with steel or iron transfuses into these metals all of the essential qualities which are its pecu liar possession It thus appears that aluminum has a great future before it in the way of usefulness to man kind, and when we consider the fact that it never loses its silvery white ness or its polish, the beauty of all structures to which it may be ap plied, whether in bridges or railway cars, can be imagined. It seems to be the coming metal. PERSONAL. The average Wellesiey college girl 119 pounds, and is a trifle over five feet two inches in height.

The Census Superintendent re cently published an article entitled "Partisanship and the Census," in which he made the announcement that, "when completed in all its branches, the census will stand unequaled by any similar publication of any government in the world. So it will. A determined effort is to be made to pass the objectionable Election bill in the Senate this week, but the de termined opposition of Senator Cameron and a lew other Republican Senators is UKeiy to prevent it. lnere is not a single valid reason for changing the sys tem that has been in voue for more than a century.
