of public af fairs Yet when it comes to voting money into their own pockets they can by concerted action unite almost to a man to make a raid on the treasury They do hot hesitate to draw mileage and yet travel on free railway passes thereby compromising their dignity and Some of them do not spend more than half their time of the Session in the House nevertheless they draw full pay for unperformed services They desire to live like princes and relent lessly call upon the bard tollers to toot the bill This game of politics has a very unpleasant odor and there is great room for reform Cashmeres
