Advance figures compiled from the

OF these seven have over 100000

1853; Hamburg, $4,000; Munich,
593,053; Leipzig, 5S5,743; Dresden,
546, 1882; Cologne, 511, ,042, and Bres-
lau, 510,929. Four others have
more than 100000 population. They
are Frankfort on the Main, 414,-
406, Dusseldorf, 356,733; N urem-
berg, 332,539, and Charlottenburg,
Ca supurb of Berlin), 304,280.

} Pay For The Lawmakers.
A bill introduced in the State
House of Representatives by Mr..
! Carter, of Pittsburg, provides for
increasing the salary of legislators
from $500 to $4,000 for each regu-
lar session. There are men in the
General Assembly whose services to
Pennsylvania are worth more than
. the sum fixed by the new bill, and a
larger proportion of the members
are not earning the pay they now re-
ceive. Men of affairs who have the
J ability to make laws and the con-
= science to originate and support good
ones ordinarily do not accept the Of
; flee of legislator. They have not the
; desire to withdraw from private busi-
} ness the time necessarily consumed
: in legislative work Thus law-mak-
: ing is trusted almost wholly to pro-
: fessional politicians and their SER
, Viceable henchmen.
