Senator Hoar has taken his time about getting
10 the front his joint resolution for an amendment
10 the constitution changing the dates Of the
presidential Inauguration and the terms OF co.,
gressonal sessions; but Il Is 70 be hoped that the
House will put IL through speedily enough. now
that 10 has passed the senate, 20 make up for the
period lost.
The bill provides for the opening OF the session
every year the 18th OF OCTOBER and for the ter
mination OF the short sessions and the inaugura-
ton OF the President on the 3oth OF April instead
OF the 4th OF March The historical argument In
favor Of the latter change has been rehearsed so
often and forcby that IL IS not necessary TO go
over lt again in this place. AS the opening Of
the sessions In October the advantage over the
present ARRANGEMENT Is obvious TO any one
who has watched the waste OF public time
which occurs regularly every year. The whole
month OF December Is practically thrown away
In the long sessions the speaker consumes the
bulk OF that time In making up MS COM
mittess, and even In the short sessions the
TWO Houses hesitate 10 take up anything
but the most trivial business at first, because
OF the liability TO interruption by the holida,
recess To add SIX weeks TO the three which now
precede the recess would be good thing: and II
an arbitrary date Is 70 be set for the beginning OF
the session. the 18th OF october Is undoubtedly as
good as any, as 10 finds Washington In the most
delightful stage Of Its autumn. But when Mr.
Koar's bill gets into the House, It will be met
promptly with the question, why any date OF this
sort f definitely fixed There il growing senti-
ment among members, and their constituents as
well In favor OF q continuous session OF Congress
broken only by occasional recesses, adapted in
date and duration TO the peculiar exigency that
happens TO be uppermost at the moment. There
are times when IL would be desirable to have Con-
gress In formal session through the whole of the
summer, and other times when expediency de-
mands fortnights resting spell in the midst OF a
session, 70 enable the members TO cool on after a
heated struggle over some partisan question. The
simplest and most satisfactory way OF managing
this would be TO have one Congress meet on the
day It's predecessor adjourns, and decide on its
own times for taxing mid-session vacations. Nor
would this system cost any more, for mileage or
other purposes, than the system now In vogue

The special charge OF too many importan
branches OF the District government has been
placed In the past In the hands OF the military
member OF the Board OF District commissioners.
The fact has been recognized as well by the army
Commissioner, upon whom heavy weight Of extra
labor and responsibility has fallen by the civil
ian members OF the BOARD, who have doubtless felt
that the comparatively small share OF special
branches OF importance assigned them has tended
to suggest q difference In rank and power among
the Commissioners 70 their disadvantage. The board
therefore does well both to suggest the equality
In general responsibility OF al its members and, in
apportioning the branches OF government for
special oversight, 20 approximate more closely to
an equal division OF special responsibilities Ger
tain important municipal matters are, however
necessarily supervised TO the best advantage by
the Commissioner who is an engineer and this
fact Is not disregarded In the new apportionment
The spectacle OF the Commissioners as a happy
family, agreeing harmoniously concerning their
common powers ana responsibilities and dividing
their special work more equitably ana without
dlscord, Is gratifying one to the public, and the
District with its own interests In vew will never
tire Of beholding show good and pleasant 10 Is for
brethren 10 dwell together in unity"

ONE OF THE yEToEs.

One of the occasions when the President
turned all the spigots of his bOttled-up
hatred of veterans was in vetoing the bill
granting pension to John w. Ferris. In
the course of his derogatory remarks he
made use of the following extraordinary
language:
The ingenuity developt In the constant and per-
sstent attacks upon the public Treasurer by those
claiming pensions, and in the increase of those al
ready granted, is exhibited in bold relief by this
attempt to include sore eyes among the results of
diarrhea.
This was time when the President put
his foot in it very deeply. There was a
small tempest of indignation among Com
rade Ferris's friends, who happen to be quite
influential people in Missouri. Instead of
his being a shirk and deadbeat, as the
President had seemed to imply, he was one
of the best soldiers sent out by Missouri.
He served over four years in one of the first
regiments raised in the State, and his record
was frst-class. He was also locally prOmi-
nent Democratic politician, member OF the
Missouri Senate, and stanch supporter of
Senator Vest.
What was still more to the point, the best
oculists in st. Louis declared that his de-
fective vision was clearly due to the irrita-
ton and debility produced by long-standing
and incurable diarrhea
These developments had depressing
effect on the President for a few days, but
he soon recovered himself and went on with
his yetoing as pert and malignant as ever.
