OUT OF A JOB.
What Beaten Congress-
men Will Do.
Some of Them May Go Into the
Lobbying Business in Wash.
ingtOn.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1S.-There will be
examples all over the country after March
of "a statesman out of a Job" Whai
will they do with themselves :? That is
no DOUBT what some of them are thinking
today. 1t is not an easy thing for man
like Mr.. Holman, who has devoted the
greater part of a life time to Congress; to
turn to some other occupation than law
making. Mr. Holman, to be sure. is
unique. He has the record now of the
longest service in the House ever attained,
But there are other men who, when their
age is considered. can be credited with as
much devotion to Congressional work as
Mr.. Holman. They, too, have become
Congressman by profession. The of these
| who loses his job through the recent cleo
ton is Mr.. Springer of Illinois. Another
is Mr.. Bynum Of Indiana. One has given
twenty, the other ten years of continuous
service 10 the House of Representatives.
Both are lawyers and both left good BUSH
ness at home when they came to Wash
ington.
W. R. Morrison of Illinois said recently
of campaigning in Illinois that the work
for reelection occupied all the time be-
tween the sessions of Congress. Cam
paigning in Indiana is quite as absorbing
business. Therefore. Mr.. Springer Tor
twenty years and Mr.. Bynum for ten
years have been neglecting their law prac-
tIce, until they have virtually none left.
Mr. Bynum has announced already that he.
will not attempt to take mp practice in In
dianspolis again. He is going to settle
down in Washington as an attorney be-
fore the departments. He will join large
colony of ex-Congressmen here. They
are SO manv that people seldom identify
YIN h4lFc n ia
| not a conspicuous honor in Was hingtou to
have been a member of the House. In
any other community 1T is considered
distinction.
Most of the men who come to Congress
are lawyers. A law practice is built up by
years OF effort and steady application. 1t
is natural. therefore, that men whose terms
| in CONGRESS have expired, and who know
that they must return to their old homes
TO struggle for perhaps five or six years
before they can place themselves where
they were before they came to Congress
| or remain here IN the practice of their pro-
fession before the departments. should pre-
fer the easier life. For Zine they COM
mand business from their own States.
| Then they pick up a general business
| Sometimes they eendne themselves To law
and Claims. Sometimes they take up mat
ters before Congress and become lobbyists.
There are so many OF these ex-Cougres-
| sional lobbyists IN Washington that it has
been necessary to curta the privileges of
the floor of the House. Formerly all ex-
| members were entitled 70 the floor.
| In the Forty-nintb Congress old ssRIche.

of that rule more than once during his
