Wo want to urge upon the voters of

Geo, W. Norrls, the "The Little Joker,"
How He Came by the Title.
While II. It. No. 17701, a bill 0 the
criminal code making it a crime for
a member of congress to accept a re
tainer fee I from a public service cor
poration, wus'.under consideration In
tho house ourjeongrcsf man took a stand
against it. In order to empkasl.o
his opposition to it lie Introduced an
amendment and from that time on lias
been dubbed tho "Little Joker." This
nmcudmcut. reads as follows:
"Any member of Congress who shall
engage lntho piaetlee of Law, or who
shall del Ivor lectures for pay, or who
engages lu, fanning or (manufacturing,
or have any oeeiipatloh whatever, or
who shall patronle any railroad com
pany for riding theieon, or who shall
buy any material or sell any matuiial
to any corporation shall bo hanged by
the neck uiitlljdeiid and thereafter be
prohibited from holding any otlleu of
protlt or trust under tho goverment of
Unltad States." Mr.Norrls considered
it a jokofortnembcra of congress to be
prohibited from representing- railroads
and other pnbllo service corporations
while they were drawing nalerie . as
representatives of the people.
This is the same Norrls who thought
that congressmen were uot receiving
enough payjaud voted to Increase his
salary W0o ajycar. - After the salary
increases Mr.JNorrls still thought each
member ought to bo entitled to draw a
salary from the "special interests,"
