RE-NoMINATIoNsF FOR CoNGREss.-ln
looking over the list of Republican nomi-
nations for Congress in all the States, we
have been struck with the unusual pro-
portion of old members re-nominated.
This proves that our organization has
learned wisdom from the past In former
times, when the South was keeping its
tried Representatives at their posts, SEES
sion after session, and the Wing party was
dropping its opponents in Congress just
as soon as they became useful, to satisfy
the "shrieks of locality" or other ground
less pretexts, the superior efficiency of the
southern members as a body in all mat
tiers of legislation was as apparent as it
was humiliating. We have remedied all
that, however, as the increasing number
of able and effective Republican Congress
men demonstrates, and the improved
character Of the two houses in general,
We do not, of course, hold that once a
member always member-it is essential
that new men should be continually added
to the peoples representatives. Yet they
should not be added in such numbers at
any time as to impair the practical eff
cheney of the House. Especially is this
true when change of the Executive and
the organization of a new administration
will devolve upon the lower branch OF
Congress the necessity of unusual steadi-
ness and skill in continuing, amid new
exigencies, the fundamental policy renew
eddy ordained by the people.-B9StoH
