WHERE THE SECOND DISTRICT
LEARNED OF STANLEY'S MERITS
And Why it Was Better to keep Him There Than te
Be Changing Congressman.

it would be a wise thing for the PEG.
pie of the second district to change
their ideas along this line and put
their congressman upon the same
footing as their circuit judges and
commemorative attorneys, so far as
the length Of service is concerned.
This would give a congressman three
terms Of two years to equal the two
terms almost invariably given those
other officers.
| BY doingethis the district could
hone to be creditably represented
and their Congressman would GER
tainly have more weight in all mat
tiers, both local and general, than a
new man just serving his first term
or two.
We do not put this proposition
upon the idea that the people owe it
to the Congressman, but that they
owe it to themselves, and call at
tention to the disparity in terms and
conditions affecting the offices
named to show wherein the people
are not consistent. If six or twelve
years is not too long for a Circuit
Judge ana Commonwealth Attor-
ney land no one claims that it isl
then certainly the same period will
not be too long for a Congressman,
who has to spend the greater part
of one or two terms in becoming
familiar with his duties and acquir-
ing an influence or prominence. 1t
four years is enough for Congress-
man, then six and twelve years is
too much for the other officials
named, when they are qualified in
all essentials when they enter upon
their term.
1t is getting so thatit is sacrifice
for really high-class man to serve
as a member of Congress. Take
man who can command a lucrative
practice as a lawyer and he can
easily make $4,000 or $4,000 more
year at his profession, with likeli-
hood of constantly adding to it year
by year. AS member of Congress
he receives 5000 a year. The cost
of living at Washington is high. and
before the average member Of Con-
gress knows 1t he finds himself
hard up" financially, unless he has
bank account of fat dimensions
upon which he can draw After he
has one or two hard fights for re
nomination or reelection he is
generally wiling to let go and try
to settle down at something to make
living. If he were reasonably
sure of a longer tenure, 1T would be
to a great extent different, and the
district could generally command a
higher class of ability to start with
and better character of service
with the lapse of years as member
Of that body.
