NEWS NOTES FROM
NEW YORK CITY

With a house of not more than 200
members there would be more oppor-
t~unities for individual distinction and
there would be more jealousy of the
rights of the house as a whole. How
many voters are there living iii 4
state which has half a dozen or more
members of the house who can name
them all9 The average voter knows
the name Of the representative of his
district and perhaps a couple of others
from his state who are af unusual
prominence. Then, possibly, he NAV
be able to name half a dozen or more
of the leaders of the house from other
states. and there his familiarity with
the house ends. This is not the fault
of the voters. If the members of con-
gress individually commanded his at
~tention he would give it. The chances
are he knows the names of a lot more
ball players and knows a heap more
about each one of them than he docs
about members of congress.
That this condition exicts is wei
understood on Capitol hill. The ques
ton is. how can it be remedieds Re
ducing the size of the house is one OF
the methods proposed.

In keeping with the spirit OF
democracy that is sweeping the world,
Turkey is attempting a constitutional
form of government. The first sessIon
of the new parliament convened at Con
stantinople this week. and was at least
notaSle for its picturesqueness. Hav-
ing been ruled with a rod of iron for
so many years, the new members were
naturally a little timid, but having
once started on the right way, it will
not be many years before a vast i'm
provement will be noticed in Turkish
government.

Dispatch.
No one ever accused Mr.. Pulitzer OF
being a great editor, or of being more
than a good police reporter. But he
inherited the money-getting genius OF
his race, employed capable journalists,
and it was not long until his paper be-
came an immensely profitable invest
ment.
In the latter SOS Mr.. Pulitzer went
to New York and secured an option on
the New York World, which was a los
ing proposition, at a nominal figure.
Not caring to invest his own money
in 80 risky an undertaking, he returned
to st. Louis and induced the several
heads of departments of the Post.
Dispatch to mak up a pool for the FIRST
payment. Returning to New York VITA
this money, he secured control Of the

the size of the house is weakened
somewhat by the fact that the british
house of commons, while a much larger
body than even the American house OF
representatives, has grown steadily IN
prestige and power, having beer able
to resist all attempts at encroachment
from both the house of lords and
from the throne. But conditions IN
Great Britain are radically different,
lust as the system of government In
Great Britain is different from our
own. In Great Britain the house of
commons is itself the government, II
creates the ministry and the ministry
is responsible to it alone. The king
is but a nominal sovereign and the
house of lords hesitates long before it
refuses to approve a measure OF the
commons.
When this government was founded
it was intended to differ from the par
liamentary system, but still in the be-
ginning the people looked to the house
of representatives as the great con-
server of their rights. That it is not
so today is due to two principal rea-
sons. One is that the executive has
been more often in touch with the
popular will and the other is that the
senate has at all times stood together
and been ready to fight for its pre-
ropatives.

The New York world having taken
the lead in attacking the ~administra
ton for its acts in the Panama canal
matter, President Roosevelt sent a spe-
cial message to the senate, recommend
ing that that body proceed against
Joseph Pulitzer, editor of the offending
journal, for criminal libel.
In everything that he does, the presi-
dent is so thoroughly in earnest, that
it il possible he takes Mr. Pulitzer too
seriously. He should have first taken
into consideration the fact that Mr.
Pulitzer fortune and %notoriety have
been made at the expense of other peo-
pies regulations.
Some rs or 80 years ago Mr.. Pulitzer
discovered himself in st. Louis, where
he was employed in the capacity of re
porter on q rather obscure afternoon
paper. His only capital was an un
bounded ambition, coupled with a very
moderate amount Of brains. AS the
paper had for years been losing prop
o~sition, the stockholders gave it to him
ON his own terms and It his own price,
shortly afterwards he effected a con-
solidation with another afternoon pa

somewhat remarkable. The incident
brings to mind the action of the Span

demolished the statue of Christopher
Columbus, stationed in one of the pub.
lie parks of Havana. After commit

What undoubtedly will be the great
est bridge in the world is to be ~ereete'l
across the Hudson river with it's New
York terminus at Fifty seventh street,
provided the proposal of the North
River Bridge company is accepted by
the Interstate Bridge commission
Plans for the proposed bridge call for
a double decked structure, with four
lines of trolley tracks, a driveway and
two sidewalks on the upper decks, and
four lines of railway tracks, a moving
seat platform, and spaces for wires,
pipes and equipment on the lower deck.
It 10 estimated such a structure would
cost SIS, O0O, 900.
The Interstate commission also has
under way plans for two other bridges
connecting Manhattan with New Jer-
sey and also three bridges from New
Jersey to Staten Island. With the new
bridges to Long Island and the tun-
nels under the East and North rivers,
the metropolis would have unconjested
communication with the outside world.

WASHINGTON NEWS
LETTER
(By Sheldon s. Cline.l

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-Therc are
veteran leaders in congress who believe
the membership of both the senase and
Louise should be cut in two. The the
DRY is that better results would be oh
tanned with smaller bodies. AS the
membership of the senate is fxe.i by
one of the fundamental principles of
the constitution, to reduce the nnmbe'
of senators is out of the question. II
could be done only by reducing the
number of states. and that is az impos-
sible, almost, as to stop the moon in
its monthly journeys around the earth.
On the contrary, the senate is bound to
increase it's membership. 1t is only a
question of time when Arizona and
New Mexico will be states, and there
will be SO senators. Some day Alaska
may be a state, and the number of
senators will be increased to 9S. It is
unlikely, unless Cuba should be an
nexed, that any of the insular posses
sions will attain the dignity of state
hood, SO SO senators may be looked
upon as the final number.
A congressional enactment, however
is all that would be necessary to reduce
the size of the house. The house low
has 391 members, and each ten wears
in the past has seen an increase, aside
from the increase resulting from the
admission of new states. If the prac-
tice of years is followed, the house
membership is certain to go over 40p
after the census of 1910. Under the
constitutional apportionment of repre-
sentation, there were IS members of
the house. The first census was taken
in 1880, and making it the basis of a
new apportionment, the number Of
representatives was increased to 1916.
The census of 1900 increased the mum.
Der to l42, that of 1910 to ls6, that Of
1920 to 2l3, that of 1880 to 242. Mem
bers of congress decided even then that
the house was too large and that some
thing must be done to check it's growth.
So when it came to making the appor.
tionment under the census of 184U,
the number of members was reduced to
232. Since then, however, growth has
been unchecked. The census of 1850
increased the number to 237, that of
1860 to 243, that of 1870 to 293, that
of 1880 to 1872, that of 1890 to 357,
and that Of 1900 to 391, a part of the
increase in each decade, of course, be-
