CONGRESSIONAL REFORM NEEDED

Ike overwhelming victory of the Re
publicans this year draws attention
anew to what is in reality serious de-
feet in our congressional system. We
refer to the great length of time that
must elapse between the election of
congressman and the time when they
take their seats. 1t is thirteen months,
and in that space of time SO many
things may happen to modify or change
public opinion as expressed at the polls
that when the new members take their
seats they may not represent public
sentiment on any question that may be
uppermost Not only this, but the
Congress that continues to make laws
in such cases as these is not in har-
mony with the peopleW
All this is an evil and should be
changed When a new Congress is
elected it should convene Immediately
on the expiration of the one preceding
it, and not be compelled to wait nearly
nine months after that period before
meeting. And this should be the case
whether the new Congress is of the
political persuasion of the one it sue
ceeds or not This would permit those
ideas that had triumphed at the polls
to find expression in legislation and so
prove their power, or lack of it, to ac-
complish that which had been claimed
for them This is the only proper
way.
Two years ago the Democratic party
was placed in control of the govern
ment that it might carry out that sys-
tenn of tariff reform which the people
demanded. It was eighteen months be-
fore those demands were complied with,
with the consequence that the people
became impatient of the great delay
and the evils Of which they had COM
planned and for whose eradication they
had elected the Democrats, and which
they continued to suffer and for which
suffering they blamed the Democrats.
Had the Democratic Congress met so
soon as Mr.. Cleveland was inaugurated
end procee ded to perform the work for
which it was elected, the people would
have had a years experience of the
peheiiSiei eheSIS VI VdlllL IeIoIIl anu
the landslide of last Tuesday would not
have occurred. It is true that in the
case of the present Congress the same
result might have been attained had
Mr.. Cleveland called Congress in special
session Immediately after his Inaugural
ton; but it was not so called together
Such action would be no solution of the
real difficulty; at best it would be an
expedient. That which should be done
is to change the time for converting of
new Congress. The people will yet
demand this and it will yet be done.

But the overthrow of Populism is COM
penSation for even such disaster as has
befallen the Democracy The state has
escaped a great peril. In time the Demo-
cratic party, if it will profit by the les
sons of the late campaign, may retrieve
its shattered fortunes, and again become
one of the great political parties of the
state. Its misfortunes do not touch the
material interests of Minnesota. Where
as, the election of Owen would have
been disastrous to those interests and
have crippled the energies of the state
for years to come. Moreover, Populist
triumph in Minnesota would have given
fresh vitality everywhere to all the dan
gerous heresies and wild vagaries to
which that party is omrnitted.-Minneap-
oils Times.
There is good ground for the belief
that when the full returns have been re-
ceiyed it will be found that the vote is
Highest where Democratic sentiment pre-
dominates.
The meaning of this is that Democrat
ic dissatisfaction is chiefly responsible
for the general downfall of Democracy.
The surprising victories of the Republic
cans were due to the disappointment and
resentment of Democrats and the indie
pendent voters who two years ago al
lied themselves with the Democracy for
reform purposes over the course of the
administration and the outcome Of the

he wanted commissioners who would
look out for the interests of the Indians.
But little lower down in the same
column the information is given that:
1t is understood. however, that names
for appointment as members of the
commission were sent to the President
few days ago, and that one Utah
man is on the list.
And to crown all this mess of contra
dictions we are told:
But the appointment of the COM
missioners will not in any way hasten
the opening of the reservations, as the
Secretary of the Interior has given it
out that he will not approve any report
they may make while the law is in its
present shape.
The complaint in the first place is
that Hoke Smith will not make any
appointments of commissioners. But
at the same time it is shown that the
law requires the President and not the
Secretary to make the appointments.
Why, then, make startling sensational
headlines berating Hoke Smith for not
doing something he has no right or
power to do? Why should Utah people
repeatedly urge Secretary Smith to
carry out the law" when he has moth
ing to do with the appointments? Until
the commissioners are appointed and
have examined the lands and made
their report, the Secretary can do moth
ing whether he has the disposition or
not.
1t is next complained that the Sec
rotary, who has no power of appoint
ment at all, said he would not appoint
any Utah man. And then it is stated
that the President who has the power
and whose duty it is to make the APP
pointments, has one Utah man on the
list
But after all the contradictory
grumbling about the failure to make
the appointments. it is stated that ''the
appointments of the commissioners will
not in any way hasten the opening of
the reservation" Well, then, what is
the use of all the fuss about this al
legged neglect when compliance with
the law will not affect the result?
The whole thing has the appearance
of Tribune fabrication. vulgarly
called a fake There is probably a
very thin shred of fact in it. Perhaps
some one heard the Secretary make an
objection to one of the provisions of
the law regarding the disposition of
the asphaltum beds, and the listener
mentioned it to a Tribune scribe, who
has gone to work and fixed up the
muddle to which we have paid this
little attention.
Utah readers should never rely on
that paper when they desire facts. 1t
deals chiefly in fiction. Anything which
reflects at all on a Democrat can find
space in its columns And it has no re-
gard even for appearances. The mess
of inconsistency to which we have al
luded is a fair sample of its considera-
ton for it's readers. 1t is a disgrace to
any public journal and it can accom-
plish no good purpose. 1t is thoroughly
and essentially Tribunish.

The impending renewal of the dispute

when the miners and a majority of the
operators are practically agreed upon

means to make the agreement effective
and permanent.
If this cannot be done the demonstra-
ton of the uselessness of strikes becomes
more forcible than ever. The miners
strike last spring was considered one OF
the most successful of its class. But it
