members of congress act in the very

Dixon. ''and will make them at the

Two Theories.
In this connection the speaker called
attention to the fact that n senator
or congressman must choose between
Two theories, that of his own iudp
meht or that of his constituents. In
many cases on record the legislator
mas voted directly against his conyic-

wished 1t. That the representative
of western state has much more
work to do in the performance of his
duty Is the judgment of Mr.. Dixon,

problems of the west are so much
moro numerous, so actual, that the
legislator Is kept under pressure all
the time, while the colleague from
New England has practically nothing
to do.
In closing, Senator Dixon urged
hearers to make every effort to. visit
Washington as % part of their educa-
ton, promising to show them every
courtesy and personally guide them
about the capital. The senator made
most pleasing impression and
mingled freely after the address with
students and faculty.
