The Congressional Salary Grab.
An election to congress will be regard
ed henceforward as much more desira
ble than ever before, thanks to the re
cent increase othe salaries of members
by 50 per cent. Seven thousand five hun
dred dollars a year is an income large
enough to furnish a strong attraction,
independently of the glory to be gained
through the exercise of an opportunity
to legislate for the nation. As a mat
ter of fact, there was small justice in
the plea that $5,000 was not an adequate
salary for a Congressmen a fact which
becomes manifest when it is considered
that the work required extends over
only six months in the year, the balanc
of the twelve-month being so much leis
ure available for utilization in other ac
tivities. Thus, for example, the lawyers
in the House of Representatives devote
their time between sessions, as a rule,
to the practice of their profession.
In urging the passage of the bill to
raise congressional salaries, one argu
ment used was that Washington was an
expensive place to live in. The truth
is, however, that such is very far from
being the case. Apparently, the capital
city has acquired this reputation through
the circumstances that people are con
stanstantly going thither on holiday
making trips from all parts of the coun
try. When they get home, they count
the cost, and say, "Goodness me! what
an expensive place Washington is!"
But such trips always do cost a great
deal of money, no matter where one
goes, and certainly food costs no more
in Washington than elsewhere, while
rents are extraordinarily low handsome
houses in the fashionable section being
easily obtainable for $50 a month and
the wages of servants a third less than
in Philadelphia or New York.
The necessary expenses of congress
men are cut to a minimum. Not long
ago each representative was provided
by the nation with a secretary, at $100
a month; and at the present time two
great apartment houses are in process
of erection, at a cost of $5,000,000, one
for the Senate and the other for the
House, in which luxurious private rooms
will be set aside for the use every leg
islator. This sort of recklessness in squander
ing the peoples' money should cease,
and the way to begin the good work is
to defeat at the ballot-box every mem
ber of congress that voted for the salary-grab
of $2,500, which is more than
any of them ever earned at home.
