In reply to requests from Pennsylva-
MIA for information respecting the prac-
teal results of large membership in
Legislative bodies, the governors of New
Hampshire, Vermont and Connecticut
have written brief letters, in which
they concur in the opinion that it is
great safeguard against bribery and cor
ruption. The New Hampshire house of
representatives consists of $50 members,
Gov. Straw writes: ''There has never
been any corruption charged in our
house of representatives" Gov. Jewell,
of Connecticut, says SIN my opinion,
large number of representatives is q
certain guard against corruption )" and
he goes on to say: 81 am proud to
say there never has been any corrup-
ton of the legislature. What is true
of this, is equally true, I think, of all
the New England states" Gov. Con-
verse, of Vermont, writes: owe have
often attempted to reduce the number
of representatives, but we have always
failed. The main ground of failure
and think so, tools the security it
gives us against corruption. think
to-day the reasoning against lessening
the number is stronger than at any
prior period in the history of the state.
The experience of some of the sister
states, for a few years past, I think,
has 1rrevocably established the wisdom
of our policy in the minds of the peo-
pie. L most heartily concur in this
opinion, that it prevents fraud and cor
ruptiOn"
