Discussion on Mr. Baines's Paper:

Lubbock (Sir F.).

Anomalies of present system of representation. Propor-
tional representation was working well in Switzerland and Belgium, and was
the only means of securing power to the majority and a fair hearing for the

Kimber (H.). Large number of votes recorded absolutely wasted. Value
of votes entirely different in separate districts
Argyle (J.). In determining proportion of electorate to eligible male popula-
tion plural votes must not be forgotten. Representation should be based on
population

Bartley (G. C. T.). Success of one party or the other at an election
depended on how a majority of 5 per cent. of electors voted.
Cohen (N. L.). Electoral lists were very defective with regard to some

classes of voters
