THE SALARY QUEsTIoN.--Th Special
Committee in the House Of Representatives on
Congressional Salaries, have agreed TO report
bill fixing the salaries Of Congressman at ST.
800, and allowing actual travelling expenses to
and from Congress. This sum is amply suff-
cent, indeed ii is greater than II onght to be,
for the value OF the services rendered. When
the great mass OF citizens have to live on few
hundred dollars per year, and TO piuch and e.
conomize in every way to avoid going In detb,
II is not right that their Representatives should
riot in luxury, and unnecessarily add 10 the
demands OH the public treasury.
We are in favor Of paying every man full
equivalent for his services, but many Of the
members Of Congress never did nor never will
honestly make 81 900 per year from their pro-
tes4ions, aud there are thousands of men who
are jdst as able To make laws for the govern.
ment of the country, "A. half the amount Of
compensation which is now being paid.
When Congressman received So per day and
mileage, there were quito as many eminent
men amongst them as at present, and the pub
lie interests were as fully promoted. Extrava-
gantly high salaries do not always promote the
public welfare but on the contrary prove a
detrimeni, AMI reduction to a more reason.
able rate Of compensation Is now demanded
forced into retirement, so that they may MT
disregard or set ut defiance the will of the
people.
