the coal fields is great; and no better
public service can be done by leaders
of public opinion than to frown upon
those who exaggerate the inevitable
frictions and misunderstanding arising
from the return of the miners to work
under unusual and not very clearly de-
fined circumstances
We have had a long exhibition of the
spirit Of fight with both sides making
a good showing in that direction. What
we need now is an exhibition OF how
good fighters can get together, bury
their grudges and act like men.

"<HE STATES whose deega-
tions command the greatest
influence in congress are
those which re-elect their
efficient congressman term after term,
thus henefiting from their experience
and ripe acquaintance with public
affairs. The states which command the
least influence are those which for one
reason or another do not keep their
TO enable them to gain recognition and
exert influence. Maine and Iowa are
examples of the former class. and their
delegations are among the strongest in
the house, being returned year after
year with hardly "a change except for
death nr promotion. Pennsylvania. we
regret 10 say. although in many re-
spectS the creates, of American COM
monwealths. does NOT command the
large prestige in the house of repre-
sentatives which she should and the
reason is mainly because of the unwise
system Of rotation prevalent in districts
with more than one county and OF
capiciOus politics in most of the tier
districts.
1t is not true that the PENNSYLVANIA
delegation is accustomed to lack in
the ability of its members. On the con-
trary. their ability compares very fav-
orably with that of any delega ton in
congress. Their lack is in the i'm
portant item of experience. As IL rule,
no sooner do they become proficient in
the ways and means of shaping lceisla-
ton than they are left at home by some
shift i'm the weather vane of local poll
tics and in their stead new men are
sent who have to go through the same
seasoning process. These frequent
changes are as detrimental TO the best
results at Washington as they would
be if adopted in the management of
private business enterprises. Indeed,
they are more 50, because the scope
and variety of the interests affected by
the work of congress are infinitely more
varied and eXacting than are those of
the average private enterprise and COR
respOndinsly call for II greater degree
of expert knowledge resulting from eX-
perlence.
Lackawanna county is to be congrat-
ulated that under the leadership Of
William Connell she has abandoned the
foolish and short t-Slghted practice of
changing her congressman every alter
nate term. II is directly due to his
abandonment that her power and in
fluence at the national capital have
Increased and that her ability to secure
results has become SO notably sunerior
to that of The average PENNSYLVANIA
district where the rotary idea yet pre-
walls.
