met here for the first time and assumed
exclusive control of the federal district
and city. This interesting event as
sumes all the more significance when
we recall the circumstances attending
the choosing of the site, the naming of
the capital in honor of the father of his
country and the interest taken by him
in the adoption of plans for its future
development on magnificent scale.
These original plans have been
wrought out with a constant progress
and signal success even beyond any
thing their trainers could have fore
seen. The people of the country are
Justly proud of the distinctive beauty
and government of the capital and of
the rare instruments of science and
education which here found their
natural home.
A movement lately inaugurated by
celebrated with fitting ceremonies. in
Guiding, perhaps, the establishment Of
handsome permanent memoir
ial to mark so historical an
occasion, and to give it more
than local recognition, has met with
general favor by the present public.
1 recommend to the congress the
granting of an appropriation for this
purpose, and the appointment of COM
iulLLee from us representative DOuleS.
1t might also be advisable to authorize
the president to appoint committee
from the country at large, which, act
ing with the congressional and District
Of Columbia committees, can complete
the plans for an appropriate national
celebration
The alien contract labor law is show
ing by experience to need some amend
ment A measure providing better pro-
lection to seamen is proposed; the
rightful application of the eight-hour
law for the benefit of labor and of the
principle of arbitration are suggested
for considerations and l commend these
subjects to the careful attention Of the
congress.
The several departmental reports
will be laid before you. They give in
great detail the conduct of affairs of
the government during the past year.
and discuss many questions upon
which the congress may feel called up
on to act.

I earnestly urge upon congress the
Importance of early legislation provid-

formed in the preparation Of the SEIZED
