RANK AND FILE WANT RELIEF Party Workers Would Like to See n Few Jobs Coming; In the Way of the JIunKr- (Inn Who Arc Stranded. Following the newB that Congressman C. O. Lobeck has introduced a bill look ing to tho Increase of salaries for veter inarians and meat Inspectors, -local demo crats, both in and out or civil service, have littered considerable) criticism anent the Increase. The blame Is not laid so much at the door of Congressman Im beck. It Is said that the congressman has been bebleged wltli letters and re quests from interested parties to assist the bill. But It ts claimed that the re muneration of the government veter inarians, which now runs to $1,800 a year, and the inspectors, who now receive J1.S00 a year, Is well enough, nnd tho "Washing ton representatives from Nebraska In either tho upper or lower house were much better off to bestir themselves In the Interest of tho rank and file of dem ocrats rather than to devote their en ergies and Influence to the betterment of the class that Is said to enjoy pleasant enough berths at present. It has also been said that many of the veterinarians and meat Inspectors were appointed under republican patronage. and being out of politics their assistance ! in the recent democratic success : amounted to very little. The boys who have been "waiting" for so many years want the Washington boys to get up and "dust" for the rank and file, who are hungry for a morsel of patronage that ought to come to them under the new dispensation. Said a valiant democrat yesterday: "Whatever may be tald about republican policies, at least republicans stick by one another. In the days of republlcai domination at Washington a republican at home never had to worry about sen ators or congressmen handing out pie to democrats. In those days democrats had one hope civil service. But now a re- j publican Is Just as liable to got a plum i as a democrat. And when you stop to think that the democratic administration has all the plums to glvo out-well, what's the use?" he continued aimlessly, j "IrlaU Womuii'd Viewpoint."
