~ HE sibilant sound is not heard as
of yore when the roll of members
I is called in the House. This for
the reason that the number of Smiths IS
less than ever before. In the last Con-
gress there were twelve Smiths on the
House list and this year there are but
five who answer to the name. Ihere is
one Smith who has been member OF
the House for twenty years. but he has
never yet answered a roll call. This is
not negligence or absence on his part TOR
he Is very attentive to his duties but he
is a delegate from arizona and has no
vote. He can talk and he does talk. but.
alas. no matter how much he would like
to see a bill beaten or carried. he must
remain silent when the others vote.
Marcus Aurelius Smith. delegate from
Arizona is good fellow, who learned
the gentlemanly ways in old Kentucky
before he moved to the far west. 1t
has long been the ambition of Marcus t.
see his territory made state prior to
his reaching an advanced age. I He has
good reason to believe that he would be
one of the first two senators from Ari-
IONA if statehood could be accomplished
during his service delegate. Mark is
democrat. and there are active repub-
licans in the territory who would make
the fight long and hard once there was a
senatorial scat in view, but sentiment for
Marks long patience and silence would
do much 10 give him the reward even if
he remains q democrat.
During the first week of the present SEES
sion Representative Smith OF Illinois died
never answering to the roll call that sum-
moned members up to be sworn in. This
Smith had served twenty years. and while
he cut no extensive figure in House af-
fairs. he was considered a safe and sane
sort of chap with a district that would
persist in keeping him here until death or
promotion. His death left the House
with but five active voting Smiths.
