Reform Is Necessary.

The death roll In this Congress promises to
be a costly thing for the nation. The ordi-
nary expense of congressional funeral is
about &, 900, but when the body is taken a
long distance accompanied by committees
the expense is much greater. When Repre-
sentative Rankin died committees went to
Wisconsin and the expense of that funeral
was over 5000. The expense Of Senator
Miller's funeral, committees having gone TO
the Pacific coast, 1t il estimated will reach
Sl0,0 Other committees have gone to New
Orleans with the body of Representative
Hahn, and the expense of that funeral Is
estimated at 5000, In addition there Is a
day devoted to eulogies of each deceased
member ana book containing the eulogies
is also printed IN each case. The cost of this
book with the ordinary number of copies is
"a 600, as stated In the report o. the public
printer, Three representatives, Ellwood,
Rankin and Hahn, and one senator have
died so far, making a cost OF SIC, 900 for print.
ing euloges outside of the Congressional
Record. In addition the sulogies delivered
on Vice President Hendricks, of which 81 OOI
copies have been ordered, will cost 1000
The account then stands as follows: -Four
funerals, $50, 600; printing eulogies, $4,000
eulogies in Congressional Record, $1,000
total, S4S, 600. In addition the ad ournnents
out of respect, and days devoted to eulogies
make loss of eight days time. 1t costs
$4,000 day to pay the expenses of Congress
If all this Is added together the need of re.
form In this direction becomes selfevident.

ment of the necessity OF reform in congress
sional funerals. 1t has been found that four
funerals of the three representatives and
one senator who have died since the begin
ming of the session, entailed an expenditure
Of $40 900, and the cost of eulogies, etc, thus
far have been $4,000 more. When 1t is
taken into consideration that ii costs Sl6, 900
a day to run Congress, and that a day is de-
voted to eulogies of each deceased member,
1t can he seen ationce why reform is very nee.
essary. And it is to bring about this need.

A DECISION of the supreme court recently
made is notable in its defense of the position
that poverty is no bar to the occupancy OF a
fiduciary relation. Two brothers, named
George w. and Daniel Nj. Levan, were rival
claimants before the register Of wills OF
Berks county, for letters of administration
upon the IS, 600 estate OF their father, Gideon
Levan. 1t was alleged against George, the
elder brother, that he was insolvent, be.
cause he owned no property exceeding $500
in value. He was earning, however, over
$40 week, and didn't owe over 800. Upon
consideration the register granted the letters
toGeorge. His brother appealed TO the or
phans' court, which revoked the letters and
granted them to Daniel. The case was then
taken to the supreme court and that tri,
bunal has reversed the Berks county cour,
and reinstated the letters granted to George
w. Levan, holding that mere poverty could
not disqualify man from serving rs admin.
traitor, and that the selection of either was al
the discretion Of the register.
