MAY R08 US ANOTHER WAYKt'pubUoaiis May Kuitli Through mi Apportionment llmttl on it I'uUv Ct-iiKUH. Washinotos, 1). C.. July 10.?There is !i revival of the scheme mentioned in tlic Star sonic time ago of crowding tin appointment bill through the present Congress while the ltcpubli cans have a safe majority in both Houses. The results of the census just completed, or alleged to be completed, will control the basis of representation in the lower house of Congress for the next ten years. A pre- ' liminary summary of the results, in- , formally submitted to the Republican bosses, it is said, shows large ] gains received in the Republican j States of the Northwest, while in the Democratic Southern States there is made to appear a falling oft* 111 population which will materially reduce the basis of representation. Some of the Republican leaders in the Senate are quietly urging upon their colleagues that by the prompt tabulation of the returns of the eleventh census and the speedy passage of an apportionment bill based thereon, a continuation of the power of the Republican party in the lower House can be more effectually assured than by the passage of the Lodge Election law. Tliej' argue that the provisions of the force bill are so repugnant to the general sentiment of the communities in which it is proposed to put them ii? operation that the execution ujf the Jaw, even if it can hi; passed by the Senate, it is believed, will be practically impossible. A new apportionment, on the other hand, passed by a Republican House and Senate, and approved by a Republican President, striking off fifteen ov twenty representatives from districts now represedtcd by Democrats, and adding thirty or forty new members to .States deemed reliably Republican, it is hoped, will give a steady working majority in the House for ten years to come. The trouble is with the next election. Even the most reckless partisan hardly dare to suggest that the new apportionment bill should be made to apply to the elections to take place next November, and for which a large number of nominations have already been made on the present recognized lines. A tentative suggest n n. timely advanced, is that until the Legislatures of the different States have had time to adjust their Congressional districts to the new npportionim nt, Congress might enact a law maintaining the districts as existbig in the present Congress. This, it is thought, might avert threatened losses in Ohio and Indiana and answer the purpose contemplated by the McComas national gerrymander bill. Hut this proposition is not supported with sufficient strength to insure its passage by the House and it would suicb* fail in the Senate. So the plan reverts to the original idea of crowding the new apportionment bill through before the expiration of tlio lifty first Congress, whiio all three branches of the government are in the hands of the sauie uurty, without waiting to take any risks on the next November elections. Superintendent Porter can, '51 course, bo relied upon to facilltotb this scheme in every way by hastening the linal tabulation and report. On all previous occasions the new apportionment based 011 the completed census has been made in a leisurely and orderly manner by the Congress succeeding the one which controlled the talcing of the census. The propriety of this course would seem apparent to any party less bent on perpetuating its own power, regardless of the means employed.?New York Star. THE FARMERS' COMMITTEEA Meeting in Columbia to I)|hcu8k tlie Situation: Columbia, S. C., July 7.?In response to some unaerstanOmg apparently reached by private communication, a number of the leaders of the Tillman movement assembled in this oitv to-day for a conference. Among those present were Capt. G. W. Shell, Laurens, another of the famous manifesto?or of that part of it which Capt. Tillmon does not claim?Col. J. L. M. Irby, of Laurens; T. ~\V.

Tillman by reason of the delay of the Augusta train, did not reach here until 7:510 and took tho 8:15 train to Camden without coming up town. The number of conferees was incre ased by the arrival of J. A. Sligh and "W. D. Hardy, Newberry; A. \V. Jones, Abbeville; Dr. W. 13. Rice, Barnwell; O. W. Buchanan, Fairfiele: W. H. Timmerman, Edgefield; J. E. Tindal, Clarendon, and H. A. Meetze and J. H. Coimts, Lexington. The conference first assembled tonight at the Agricultural building' but hastily adjourned on the discovery by a late arriving delegate that a reporter had climbed a tree within a few feet of an open window where the meeting was held. The conference resumed its session at the Grand Central in a room on tho second fl?or with guards posted to keep at a dis tnnee representatives of the pi cas. Capt. Shell presided and the situation was throroughlyjdiscussed. The sense of the majority present, it is learned, was in favor of making no nominations at tho August convention, but to vote down the profK>sition of a State primary, and to also elect a new State executive committee of known Tillman tendency. It was also proposed by somo to have the convention take action for the reapportionment of the J^into at the September convention, takum tho population of the countiep by tho census of 1880 as tho bftsis, instead of as now. The members of tho conference talked with express tho greatest confidence in being able to control both tho August and September conventions for the farmers' movement.?

There is it striking contrast be- , tweon Mr. Lodge, the leader of the ( Republican forces in the contest over j the federal election bill, and Mr. | Hemphill, who by virtue of his position on the committee on the election , of President and Vii*>-President, is ; at the head of the opposition. Mr. Lodge has more contradictory traits of character than any man I know of in the House. He is a curious combination of liberal reformer and demagoguo; of broad intelligence and bitter partisanship. In his character as partisan he is admired by his colleagues and has a considerable fol- ( lowing. As a rofonnerlie lias scarcely ( any following in the House and is sneered at by those who are his associates and admirers in his other j character. His associates aro of two classes. Thoso who follow his lead on the federal election question call him a political dude wlion ho talks civn service reiorm. wnen lio ap* . pears as a reformer of political methods ho is superb but ineffective, but in party intrigue he will go further than some of his less intellectual and . less enlightened associates. He is clever however, in the assumption of , high motive in his partisan action, . and is too shrewd to use denunciation ' instead of argument- The best presentation of his sido of the Federal election question that has been made, ! and the best that can be made, was , that which was made in his opening argument. He is not an orator ana ! never rises to the point of eloquence. ; His speeches are finished literary pro- , ductions, and he delivers them with an appearance of earnestness Ho is a fair representative of the intelligent but bigoted young Republicans of New England, still retaining the strain of Puritan blood. Mr. Hemphill is a good representative of tho progressive young men of the South. If Mi-. Reed, in a spirit of mdgnanimity, had so designed it, ho could not have done better for tho Democrats than ho did in tho appointment of Mr. Hemphill to the head of the minority committee which was to consider this bill. Ho is not a fire eater. He is calm, dispassionate, logical and a good lawyer. It would bo much easier to throw Mr. Reed, Mr. Lodge or any other cold-blooded New Englander into a passion than to provoke an indiscretion on the part of this young South Carolinian. He is fail- and frank. His speech is slow and somewhat halting at first. There is never anything in his manner to provoke antagonism; he never forgets to be courteous to his opponent, however bitter that oppenent may be. He is not as graceful a writer as is Mr. Lodge, his periods may not be quite as well rounded, ho does not attempt as much effect with his voice, but as he advances with his argument, feeling what he says, as he did on opening the case for the South in this discussion, he becomes eloquent without effort and without knowing it. There is a frank earnestness in what he says which impressess his hearers. His ?ow?, Uia mMtnar Mtd liiu aDAAT.h I1Dpoal for fair play, and give promise of fair play in return. His speeches are the work of a lawyer rather than a litterary man, but he is a scholarly and as able as is the young statesman from Massachusetts.

The law of Minnesota, which requires that the execution of a mur- 1 derer shall take place between mid- i night and dawn, has just been enforced for tho first timo in the case of ; William Beodker, who was hanged j shortly after midnight at Pino City. Tho Minnesota lawgivers seem to have desired to add gloom and solem- < nity to a ceremony most gruesome at best, but the hour must be a very inconvenient and untimely one for tho murderer himself. Every attentive reader 01 tuo accounts oi executioners knows that a baby never enjoys balmier and sweeter slumber than a condemned murderer tho night befhre bo is to bo hanged. Ho also knows that he takes a very excellent and hearty breakfast in the morning i The refreshing sleep and the hearty < breakfast ore always the features of i the few hours that precedo an execu- i tion.

Other crops, like the sweet to 1 DoJjUto, can be raised more easily and fr?< profitably for stock feed. Still the turnip has some value as a succulent stock food in winter, and contributes something to the health of stock, * though not very nutritious. For toble and for stock it should claim at least a patch on every farm. *ee' Success in raising the turnip de- et. pends very largely on the preparation J of the land, almost as much as in the Blir< manure applied. Perhaps no crop p16' demands finer tilth. It is important, hot therefore, to begin the preparation of turnip laud early. It is none too oi early now to begin. The first thing is to break tho land thoroughly and 11111 deep. If left all cloddy the roller and 1111. harrow should follow the plow at once. After tho next rainfall plow OUl again across tho first, and follow as rel1 beforo with roller and harrow. If : one has no roller, "make a drag, by y1"1 nailing lumber 10x2 to two slides fev olopixl front, nailed on 1X1 1 weatherboard fashion, and drag it eric over the land.

Cow-penning is excellent for lor the purpose, but this practice is bo are coming less practiced than it used to 1 be. Some stable or lot manure should pos bo put on the land before the first A plowing, with a view to getting it yoi fined and well mixed with the soil. 1 Before the second plowing this should pro bo supplemented with a heavy dress- at 1 ing of phosphate?say, at the rate of 1,000 pounds per acre. This fertilizer is peculiarly adapted to the tur- j nip. Some nitrogen and soma potash t,hu are needed also, but phosphate is the yea chief manure it calls for. Not only j should a liberal dressing of this be ?Ti given broadcast, but if the seed are ^eo drilled a little phosphate should be put in the drill also, to push tho crop { forward rapidly out of tiie way of the gor flea bug. A moderate dressing of the cotton seed meal and some ashes or am] kainit should be given also. rejj On excessively rich land fine crops WAi of turnips may be raised by sowing seed broadcast, but on ordinary land better results will follow sowing in aB ( drills two to two and a half feet apart, thinning out the crop and working it ma< with plow and hoe. Our experience is, that in our hot, dry climate the 1 turnip should not be sown early? woi from first of August to middle of Sep- wel tember is the best seeding period.
