No Congress since the adoption Of the
constitution, except that which met at
ihe beginning Of the Civil War, has met
under more peculiar circumstance, or
1een confronted BY more novel and i'm
oortant questions than those which will
attend the session Just beginning. Under
these circumstances we feel like
voicing what we regard as the need
Of the hour and what should be the de-
mand Of the people, that Congress shall
take up the rev duties imposed upon it
in o spirit Of complete devotion to public
interest and abnegation to personal,
selfish or party ends. In the difficult
problems which now have to be solved,
and in the new foreign policies about to
be entered upon, there is no room for
peanut politics or fencing for political or
party advantage. There has been too
Of that sort Of thing in Congress, often
to the detriment of public interests. Let
US have done with it. In the fact Of
the new and difficult problems which ale
now springing up on every hand and
pressing for solution, let there be an
end Of the self-seeking leadership, the
petty ambitions, the political wrangling
and the presidential diminishing which
have prevailed in Congress SO long that
they have come to be regarded as
an almost iuseperabe characteristic Of
American politics. Let Congress for
once rise clear above the plane of ward
politics. district conventions and presi-
dental election and address itself with
genuine patriotism and all the ability il
possesses to dealing with the difficult
questions that confront it. Our army
and navy have re entity shown that
Americans know how to deal with their
enemies on land and sea 1t would be
a great thing for the country if Congress
would approach its duties in the same
spirit and show the world that we can
deal with political and administrative
problems quite as effectively and with a
similar ignoring If personal and partisan
considerations.-Indi.apolis Journal.
