The democrats of the cream city are looking to ex-Governor Geo.

The new apportionment bill, besides mou many other grave defects, has fixed 'dish the senate districts so that they range in population from to a difference of in a senatorial district. On the same basis, the difference of population of a congressional district would be something fearful to behold.
