ington. congressman are viewed by
landladies in Washington as a vested
interest, and any law to prevent a
Congressman from paying his entire
quarterly check for hotel accommoda-
tions would be carried to the Supreme
Court as an attack on property rights.
Joseph G. Cannon is our most in
veterate Congressman. He has been at
II almost forty Years. Formerly he
owned Congress, but Champ Clark took
ii away from him last spring. As
Speaker of the House, Mr.. Clark Is a
very powerful parsonage. and can start,
stop. back up steer, and accelerate Leg
islation at will, to say nothing of cut
ting out the muffler and letting oratory
unrestrained terrify the land. The
Speaker also appoints the committees,
and this makes the other Congressmen
his slaves. for every Congressman wants
committee with a south exposure, q
retiring room, three clerks, a full leath.
er set of furniture and an ice water
tank in the. corner.
Congressman frequently live to q
great age-but not as Congressman. The
mortality among Congressman is even
greater than 1t Is among Senator's. Only
twenty Congressman have served more
than fifteen years, and the recent cpl
demic of last November swept almost
200 Of them away. Congressman sur
vive by voting on the right side ol
popular measures, and those who sue,
ceed In guessing the right side give VI
magnificent careers as weather prophets
and second sight mediums in order tc
do so.
