ISSUES OF THIS YEAR.
The President should Have "a Parti-
san Congress to Help Handle
New Difficulties.

The congress which will be elected
few weeks hence will have to deal
with more questions of great impor-
lance than presented themselves to
any congress which has met since the
civil war and reconstruction days. 1t
will have TO devise system of govern
ment for each of our new possessions
with the possible exception of Hawaii,
which may be attended to in the COM
ing short session of the present con-
gress. The work of forming a per-
manent army to meet the new needs
which enlarged territory will impose
may possibly be transacted in the COM
ing four months session of the exist
ing congress, but the chances are that
it will go over to the next body. Then,
too, n staff organization for the army
in line with modern requirements will
have to be devised. The old issue of
the staff and line wrangle in the navy
will have to be settled, and new sys-
TEN of naval promotions must be
created.
Work erbugh to keep congress
busy during nearly all of its term,
aside altogether from the routine
business of the government, has here
been cited. The task of framing gov
ernments which will recognize the
local capabilities and meet the pc
culiar needs of the people of Cuba,
Puerto Rico and the Philippines de-
mands time and intelligence. In n
considerable degree the conditions
here are new. Some of the peoples to
be dealt with may have to remain in
state of dependence forever. The
full territorial status which is enjoyed
by New Mexico, Arizona and Okla
homa cannot be extended to any of
our new possessions Immediately,
though the indications are tlrut it may
safely be given to Puerto Rico before
many more years pass. An entirely
different and less advanced sort of a
government will have to be provided
for the Philippines. Government for
Cuba will involve some delicate ques-
tions Of different order from those
which will come up in the Puerto
Rican and Philippine matters.
For the adjustment of all these COM
pick questions the republican party
will be held primarily responsible.
The necessity, therefore, for the re-
publicans to elect n majority OF the
next house of representatives and to
gain the two or three seats which will
give them control of the senate is par
ticularly urgent. 4 republican con-
gress should be chosen to assist the
republican president in dealing with
these delicate issues. Not since 1870,
when Georgia, the last of the seeded
states, was restored to her old rela-
lions to the union, has congress been
called upon to deal with so many ques-
tions requiring discrimination, bal
ance and tact as will present them.
selves to the congress which is to DO
elected little less than two months
hence. The president in managing the
war which has brought all these
troublesome issues to the front, and in
dealing with some of them in their
rudimentary stage since the armistice
began, has shown excellent judgment.
1t is particularly essential that the
congress elected on November S shall
be in partisan accord with him on
these and the other great issues which
may arise.-St. Louis Globe-Dcmocrat

THE NATIONS FINANCES.
creditabIe Work of the Administra-
tion shown In the Treas-
ury Department.

Not the least remarkable of the
achievements of the present national
government at Washington is found
in its skillful and accurate adjustment
of the nations revenues to the ma
TONS expenses. The success with
which this has been done, both in
peace and war, stands out in striking
contrast with the failure of the dem
ocratic government of the preceding
years. An examination of the official
figures for the last year shows a re-
markable accuracy in making the rev.
enues meet the disbursements of the
treasury through the Dingley tariff
and allied sources, and an examination
of the figures for the month of August
shows the same thing with regard to
the war revenues.
For purposes of clearer comparison
lit will be helpful to separate the pro-
visions for peace times and those for
|war expenses and to reduce each to
daily averages. AS the postal service
lis almost exactly self-supporting, it
may be left out of the calculation.
Exclusive of this, the government en-
.penditures have for several years aver

100000 daily. When war broke out
was judged that at least $13s 900
hould be added TO the yearly revenues,
r $37s,000 daily, these being the fig
&res given by Chairman Dingley in his
Estimate of what the war tax would

laying solid foundation for the re-
turn of confidence and for a firm be-

the Republican party.
This large revenue in August, coupled
with the receipts from the popular
bonds sold by the treasury, caused the
receipts to exceed the expenditures
during the month. The cost of run
ming the government and the war in
August was $56,a6O,717, yet S22 ,35s,o25
was added to the cash in the treasury.

was there he was in the employ of the
Alaskan Transportation company, 10

waiting to do so. Prices have been
greatly reduced on all things the last
few months, wages along with the rest.
He estimates on good Authority that
