After a week of preliminary work.
during which many routine matters
have been attended to. number Of
important developments are expected
during the early part Of the week at
the convention of the Brotherhood OF
Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen.
An entirely unexpected question
threatens to cause a serious split in the
ranks of the brotherhood when final
debate comes up on the proposition of
employing a permanent representative
to have his office in Washington and
ure his influence in procuring advan-
taCcous legislation in Congress. A num-

yea and nay vote to settle the matter.

1t was stated today by leaders in
the convention that the coming week
certainly will witness more important
developments than the past. and II is
believed that by next Saturday the

These are the ideals with which advanced thinkers

OUR IMPECUNIOUs SENATORS.

The statistical details which have been confessed
by the Senators concerning their occupations, invest
ments, holdings, incomes, ct cetera, are not to be
contemplated without realization that the Senate is
no longer mionares club. Probably it never was
TO anything like the extent that il supposed to be.
Sympathy for our impecunious Senators is timely
just now Perhaps their wages ought to be raised
again. 1t is several years since they have been
nosted Besides there is vague feeling that if the
members of Congress should conclude to add, say,
another So, 500 year, to their emouments, they
might possibly give a few moments incidental
thought to the salary situation of the civil service
employees, whose wage schedule has not been revised
since before the civil war
