bers and interest. will be continued dur
ing the present week.
About twenty persons have professsd

As many others have expressed serious
desire for a better life. The meetings

Following the recommendation Of the

Following the recommendation Of the
President in his message, resolutions
have already been introduced in Con-
gress providing for an amendment 10
the constitution, which will allow the
veto of the Executive 10 be exercised
upon sections of appropriation bills, TO
which be may have objection, while
other sections Of the same bill can be
approved. This is much needed
amendment, and should be speedily
placed before the country for Iatifica-
ton. Under existing constitutional
provisions a bill must. SO far as Execu-
tive approval or d sapproval Is concern
ed, be considered in its entirety. veto
cannot be interposed unless it goes to
the whole bill. This has been frequent
y the cause Of vicious legislation. APP
preparation bills in general are not
usually perfected until nearly tie end
Of q session. They 90 to the President;
at SO late date that /. veto would OF
necessity kill the bill, unless overridden
By a constitutional majority II both
Houses of Congress. When, therefore,
at the close of the session one of the
several important bills Of this character
has been up for final passage, it has fire.
qIently occurred that Objectionable
c lausss, or riders" have been tackled
on. and passed under protest in order to
save the bill. Thus laden it would 90 70
the President, who to avoid stopping
the wheels of government by cutting off
supplies in the matter Of appropriations,
would be forced to approve the obnox-
ious clause together with the body of
the bill. To obviate this the amend
ment referred to is proposed. The veto
Of the Executive applied to any special
Section would of course be subject to
rejection by Congress 10 the same mode
as though il included the whole bill.
Every State should have similar pro-
vision III its organic act. Not infre-
quently the same advantage is taken by
advocates of injudicious measures in
State Legislatures, and the Executive
placed in the dilemma of being COM
PEELED to approve what he considers an
unconstitutional or hurtful provision,
10 save and render operative sections
which are free from objection. and in
his Judgment eminently wise and neces-
sary. The powe, to discriminate in
such Cases, to veto Objectionable and
approve just sections of bill is one
which experience teaches should be
placed in the hands of the Executive.
