Party Regularity Makes It Easy for
“/ns” in Turkey As in Other Lands
From the Constantinople Correspondent of the Manchester
Guardian
A by-election which has just taken place here is probably one
of the last which will be held under the antiquated indirect system
still in force in Turkey, under which the choice between the rival
candidates is determined by the votes of a body of electors who
have themselves been elected by the general public for that pur
pose. On polling day the urn was ceremonially carried, with the
beat of drums, up to Stamboul university, where it was placed in
a lecture-room hung with wall carpets and decorated with laurels
and flags. The governor of the city, the prefect, the members of
the supervisory commission, and all parliamentary deputies now
here took their places on seats ranged round the urn, where they
had the privilege of sitting during the day’s polling. Under their
critical eyes 1,000 “second-degree” voters walked up and deposit
ed their votes. They came in according to city districts at certain
fixed hours till nightfall—a batch from across the Bosphorus, an
other from Stamboul, a third from outlying regions, and so on.
Then the commission counted the regimented votes, and the result,
which was by the very force of the procedure favorable to the gov
ernment candidate, was announced.
The present by-election was forced on Constantinople by the
government party, which feels its power slipping away from it.
Knowing and fearing the importance of the ex-capital as a center
of opinion, they rushed the election as soon as they saw a real op
position party beginning to organize itself. The prefect quite un
expectedly received an order from the minister of the interior to
begin the preliminaries. The haste was explained by the fact that
the secessionists from the government party were not yet ready
for a contest.
Even if they had been organized, however, they would prob
ably not have put forward a candidate, for they argue thus: “The
1,000 second-degree electors who are voting now were elected two I
years ago under quite different circumstances, and almost under
duress. They were all pledged to vote for the candidates of the
government party; and though public opinion has greatly changed
since then, they remain the same identical persons pledged to the
same identical votes. What, then, is the use of us, the newly
formed opposition, appealing to them for suffrages? They would
be afraid to vote for us even if they had not now once more been
promised all kinds of favors for continuing their support to the
government party. These favors are said to include advancement
for such of them as are government functionaries.”
One strange feature of Turkish procedure is that candidates’
names are kept religiously secret till the very last moment. The
government party waited and waited to see what name, if any, the
opposition wouldjput forward so that it could counter with a more
popular name. Only when it realized that the oppesition was
holding its hand altogether did it reveal the identity of its own
candidate. Then, on the last day but one before the election, five
or six “independent” candidates offered themselves, one of them
naively promising the electors to give his deputy’s salary, if elect
ed, to charity. Each briefly explained his own merits, hardly re
ferring to policy, but in one typical case saying, “I possess many
friends,” presumably friends in high places.
Salary Increase*.
By W. A. Sibley, In the Chicago
Journal of Commerce,
fn rural districts the provision In
the legislative appropriation bill in
creasing the salaries of congressmen
from $7,600 to $10,000 a year is not
popular, nor will presidential ap
proval make it popular. There are
several reasons why this is true, one
of which is that tho Increase alone,
$2,600, is a larger sum than the great
majority of constituents in country
districts ever reach in their total of
earnings in their own vocations. To
them $7,500 is the equivalent of a
well stocked farm of fertile land with
a big orchard In one corner of it,
while $10,000 annually is an Income
■which most have about $200,000 of
value behind it. Few districts put
the value of a congressman at that
sum.
Congress has not been a popular
body for several years. The election
last November demonstrated that

f
fact, and few men who represent
farmers, villagers and small town
populations in congress are regarded
as having even a $10,000 "book value."
A very large proportion of 6uch
members never earned as much as
$5,000 a year before they were elected,
perhaps, and to boost their salaries
to $10,000 a year In a period of close
governmental economies is regarded
as both inconsistent and uncalled for.
In addition to these factors of pub
lic dislike for the raise, is the fact
that so few citizens can understand
how trivial an item congressional
salaries are when compared with the
total expenditures of the body for
public purposes. A 33 per cent, raise
in the salary of his congressman,
representing a total annual Increase
in public expenditure of less than
$2,000,000, Is more offensive to the
rural constituent than the waste of
40,000,000 or 100,000,000 by an extra
vagant congress. This the members
