Hill, Governor, 1891 Inequitable, however, as the federal census proves the present apportionment to' be, it is believed that an accurate enumeration would show even more striking inequalities. Throughout the State there has been manifested a deep-seated mistrust of the accuracy of the federal count. It has been demonstrated quite clearly that in the city of New York alone nearly inhabitants were overlooked. There is satisfactory evidence also of a' deficiency in the returns for other parts of the State. An enumeration under State authority is demanded not only to correct the glaring ine qualities of the existing apportionment, but the apparent inac curacies of the federal census as Well. There need not be another census, but a simple enumeration of the inhabitants is all that is desirable and all that the Constitution absolutely requires. It seems to be now generally conceded, no matter how the matter may have been viewed in previous years, that a collection of statistics, other than a simple enumeration, would be a useless waste of public money and a wholly unnecessary proced ure. The people desire and expect at this time a simple enumera tion, and that is all. They have protested in unmistakable terms against the political injustice involved in the continuance of the present inequitable apportionment of the Senate and Assembly districts, and they desire to see the wrong speedily righted in the most inexpensive and simplest manner permitted by the Constitution.
