The only thing proved by all this, and the thing thut pleases us most, is that traveling men as o class have becouie a recognized force in all Weanches of political and eivil govern ment; that their influence has come to be felt and appreciated, and that at last they have taken their rightful place n the social and business world. They deserved much more than they reccived in former vears; it should be their care now to ehegk' any sudden ambition which might sprihg out of their prosent recognition, and, demunding no more than they are entitled to, sce toit_that their demands are complicd with.
