NEW BLOOD IN CONGRESS.
1t is the opinion of . prominent
member of congress from New Eng
land long in service at Washington
that the country has seen the last OF
men in congress of a service Of thirty
years and more and probably also, at
least ;or some time, of men who have
served in'congress twenty years. The
trend, in his judgment, isagainst long
service. Elections are now consider.
ably affected by means Of direct pri'
maries, and people seem tickle, and the
best of men in congress are consequen-
tly apt to be toppled over by some
newcomer who chances to charm the
majority Of the voters.
AS it is, men in congress who have
y record Of twenty years or more are
few in number. And not few of
these are retiring, in some cases driven
out Of public life by popular clamor.
Senator Hale Of Maine is cOmplet'
ing his thirthieth year in the senate.
Previously he served six years in the
house Of representatives. In the
public life Of Washington he will. on
March /, have been thirty.six years.
Senator Eyre Of Maine will also
this year complete thirty years of
service in the senate.
Senator Aldrich will retire from the
senate in his thirtieth year. He was
additionally two years in the house Of
representatives. Senator Cullum is
completing his twenty.eighth year in
senate, but he can point to service in
congress father back then any other
member, having been a member of the
house in 1861.
Senator GalIingcr Of New Hamp-
shire will complete twenty years of
service in the senate, but he had
already, when chosen senator in 1891
served four years in the house.
In the house, Speaker Cannon can
show service going back to 1873, or
thirty.six years back, but two years
will have to be deducted from the
continuity, for he missed one congress,
suffering defeat in the democratic tidal
wave Of 1880. The service of Repre-
sentative Bingham of Pennsylvania,
called the Father Of the House"
because he has seen longer continuous
service than any other man in it,
harks back TO 1879, while Representa-
tive Payne of New York, chairman of
the ways and means committee, goes
as far back as 1885. Representative
Dslzell of Pennsylvania first came to
congress in 1887, or twcnty-iour years
ago, and Representative Jones OF
Virginia has a record of twenty years
of service in the house. All other
congressman report service Of less
than twenty years. Representatives
Barthol: Of Missouri, Cooper Of Wis
consin, Gardner of New Jersey; Gillett
and Mccall of Massachusetts, and
Loudenslager Of New Jersey have
been elected to another term, and SO
will by 1913 have completed twenty
years in the house. Of those who
began coming To the house in 1893
only nine will remain.
Judgment here is that more and
more the senate and the house is be-
coming an asscmblage Of fresh men,
and that this trend will become even
more pronounced in the years ahead.

Congressman Hanna delivered a
speech in Congress in opposition to the
Reciprocity treaty in which he showed
the markets on the 3lst Of December,
1910, at Portal to be on wheat, SIC,
and at North Portal in Canada, 75c;
barley was &c at Portal and Soc in
North Portal; flax was 1888 in Portal
and sl.s9 in North Portal. This will
be seen to be considerable difference
favoring the North Dakota man.
These two towns join each other, so the
Tariff must be admitted to be the cause
Of the differnce. Can we afford, as
farmers, to wipe out this Tariff differ
ence? Can we afford to trade q mar
ket of ninety millions of people for a
market Of eight millions, and if We did
would that be reciprocity? Let every
farmer write protest to each member
of Congress. Let us give our mem
bers something to work with. FIVE
do not loudly protest We are not trying
to help ourselves, and if we make no
effort to help ourselves, we do not de
serve to he helped.-Plaza IN. d.
