consressnnen and Nepotism.

The practice of nepotism by members of congress, the appointment by them of their wives, sons, daughters, their sisters and their cousins and their aunts.'' to clerkships and secretary ships has come to be so universal that it would be unfair to condemn any par ticular senator or representative on account of it. They are all guilty, or nearly all, except theses who are veal thy and who do not need the money. Of course the custom, or system is shameful; it is a method by which congressman squeeze out of the na- tionaI treasury by indirection moneys that they dare not vote to themselves by open and above board appropriation. If the salary of $7,50o a year be not enough for a. congressman, the salary ought to be increased and the country should be saved the disgrace of forc- ing or permitting it's representatives to engage in petty pilfering under a miserably false pretense. When a cus- tom evil in itself becomes so well es- tablished that those who practice 1t are no longer held b1amabIe by public opin- ion. the degrading effect of the custom nevertheless survives to the corrupting of persons addicted to it and congress- men who use the public moneys by one or another expedient, for private ob- jects of themselves or their families must suffer some debilitation of their moral character.-Columbia s.
