other senators. He appears to settle all
questions for himself and by himself, and
to live upon hard work.
Senator Spooner il another notably hard
worker-one Of those who work like sixty
when there 10 work to do and then rest with
equal diligence when they may. Coming
from theB Badger state, he eugReats the old
simile of working like a badger. Colonel
Incersoll used to explain his own industry
by saying he hated work, but seeing there
was SO much competition in the businesa OF
larceny and the like. he had to work for
might in order that he might DO through
with il as soon as possible. senator
Spoonsr seems to have the same kind OF
aversion to work and the same love OK re-
suits. For evety hour of lolling that ne
does in the senate chamber he works ten
hours with all his steam turned on.
The W Minnesota senator's, Davis
Washburn. are constant workers. Senator
Davis IL especially driven BY the immense
mands his attention as chairman of the
committe on pensions. He is a systematic
worker and by this means manages to dis
poss of much in . short time. Yet he is
always at work early in the morning, and
seldom leaves the capitol before five O'Clock
in the afternoon. From this time on, how
yer, he refuses to do anything like work.
In his pleasant home on Massachusetts
avenue he loafs away his evenings. sur

nothing better than sitting in his

his chair, gassing with familiar friends.

senator's ate men of extraordinary mental
activity; and since their labors lie in the
mental realm and not in the physical, 1t Is
unjust to set them down as indolent men.
OF course, man. of them-most of them,
indeed-are given to finding comfortable
positions when they sit in the chamber,
and to ~lounging pretty heavily when in the
cloak-rooms. hut for a pictnfe OF bodily
ease. I would still recommend the press gal
lery and the correspondents retiring room,
though l confidently assert-and believe it
will not be denied-that the mel h write
the hundreds of columns of report which
goes from Washington every night, are
quite the reverse Of a lazy lot.
If there were no other evidence of a sem
ator's natural disposition to industry, the
fact that he is a senator would count for
something. 1t is not by Incidence that
men procure such positions. If it be an
swered hat many of them purchased their
seats with money, it must still be held that
most of these earned that money: and this
argues against innate laZiness. "
But there is ample and convincing testi-
mony in favor of senatorial industry, and
he who will may see it. An hours careful
observation from the gallery ought to con-
vince anybody that most of the senators are
nervous men; and nervous men are not apt
to be lazy. There are nj few senators who
can sit still two minutes at 2 time. Senator

an interview with him, and called upon him

he found the senator in his shirt sleeves. -

The journalist lighted his cigar and made
another attempt.
'I'm glad you did. l like nothing better
than to nave good fellows call and spend
the evening with me. Havea another cigar"
That was as far as the interview went.
The senator would have talked with him
anti midnight about Shakespeare as a law
on his daily labors, but he would not even
let his mind be called to work.
Senator Sherman almost reverses Sena-
tor Davis system. He does all his resting
at the capitol and most OF his work in his
study at home. And'he does not rest much
either, for he is a very attentive listener to
the debates aud a careful reader OF the
newspapers. During the so-called morning
hour-from IL to two o'olock-he IS usually
in his seat, reading the morning papers and
Watching with one eye, or with one ear, the

Pherson, Morgan. Vance. Voorhees,, Butler,
Vest, Moody and Farwell, being chairmen
of exacting committees, are all busy men,
while Senator George, who is n of the
closest students of constitutional questions,
Senator German, who attends to the poll
tics of his state as we'll as to his senatorial
duties, Senator Turpie and all the senators
from the new states are by no means indo-
lent ones.
There are a few genuinely lazy men in the
senate. Senator Hiscock of New York is by
a long way the leader in this respect. He
Tolls physically and mentally. Senator
Eustis of Louisiana is a pretty comfortable
sort of a man, and Senator Blackburn OF
Kentucky is not wasting away from over
work. Others. too, would be eligible to the
Lazy Mans club, but they are few COM
pared to the number who really do six hard
days work a week and who ought to be re-
earded as sufficiently in majority to rescue
the senate from the reputation of a body
of %loungers. WILLIS b. HAWKINS.
