Saws Some Need to Feel "Pressure.s

Some representatives need to feel
this pressure to make them good law
makers. Mr.. Borland seems very anx-
ious about protecting the taxpayers
fpocketbooks. We wish he might be
equally concerned about the pocket
books of the underpaid clerks. He
should remember that the clerks have
to live as well as the taxpayers. Rep
resentatives raised their own salaries.
Nobody objected. A first-class repre-
sentative is worth more to the govern
ment service than the salary he gets.
We admit that some representatives
do not earn their salaries and some
government clerks do not earn theirs.
but they are the exception and not the
rule. If a representative raises his own
salary. he ought to be willing to raise
others who are in the government
service. What is fair for one is fair for
all. A man of Mr.. Borland's qualifica-
lions can be of great service to the ma
ton If he desires, but 1t Is unfortunate
that his energies are misdirected In the
case of the government clerk.

SAYS DISTRICT PEOPLE
ARE NOT H|GHWAYMEN
Rev. D. H. Martin Criticises Repre-
sentative Borland's Speech on
Salary Raise Measure.

Criticism of the speech of Representa-
tive Borland of Missouri in the House.
opposing the efforts 20 increase the
salaries of government employees, was
made yesterday by Rev. D. H. Martin.
pastor of the Dumbarton NJ. E. Church,
in the course of his sermon.
Mr.. Borland's speech, he said, was
sadly wanting in real American patriot
ism and should bring a blush of shame
to the cheek of every American citizen
who reads it, Mr.. Martin said that the
people of the District are not highway
men as Mr.. Borland seems to think.
Regarded as Dangerous Man."
He said that the representative was
dangerous man to have in Congress,
judging from his attitude toward clerks
and the people of Washington. He
poses, he said, as friend of the gov
eminent employe at large. but loses
sight of the fact that every obstacle he
throws in the way Of the government
clerk here will eventually injure the
government employees elsewhere.
He laments," said Mr.. Martin, the
possibility of 'backf1re,' meaning by that
expression the influence people here
may have on the votes back home. 1t Is
fine thing that the people living here
without the privilege of the ballot can
bring pressure on Congress through
the voters in the states if they see
fit.
