ISSUES OF THIS YEAR.
The President should Have Parts-
snn Congress Ia 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 10
any congress which has met since the
civil war and reconstruction days. IL
will have 10 devise n 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 per-
manent army 10 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
IL will go over 10 the next body. Ihen'
too. a staff organization for the army
in line with modern requirements Will
have TO be devised. The old issue or
the stat and line wrangle in the navy
will have TO be settled, and n new sys-
TEN OF naval promotions must be
created.
Work enough 10 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 ~
/ local capabilities and meet the
culiar needs Of the people of Cuba%
Puerto Rico and the Philippines de-
mauds time and intelligence. In
considerable degree the conditions
here are new. Some Of the peoples 10
be dealt with may have TO remain In
n state OF dependence forever. The
fnll territorial status which is enjoyed
by New Mexico, Arizona and Okla
homa cannot be extended 10 any or
our new possessions Immediately,
though the Indications are that 1t may
safely be given 10 Puerto Rico before
many more years pass. An entirely
different and less advanced sort OF
government will have 90 be provided
for the Philippines. Government Tor
Cuba will involve some delicate ques-
tlons OF different order from those
which viii come up in the Puerto
Rican and Philippine matters.
For the adjustment OF all these conf
pick questions the republican party
will be held primarily responsible.
The necessity. therefore, for the re-
pubicans TO elect majority OF the
next house OF representatives and to
gain the two or three seats which VIII
give them control OF the senate Is par
ticularly urgent 4 republican con-
press should be chosen 20 assist tho
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-
tions to the union, has congress been
called upon TO deal with so many cues
lions requiring discrimination. bal
nnce and tact as will present them
selves TO the congress which is TO be
elected Il 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 theii
rudimentary stage since the armistict
began, has shown excellent Judgment

congress elected on November shall

"Three cheers for the Cops" was the
strange cry with which last nlgh' 5
meeting of the club opened as the troops
were in line near the Summer street
school house while the Inspector walt
al across the street. The delegate who
went up to Graniteville to see about lne
electric cars running up there reporteo
that the people up there were all anxl-
ous to ride on the trolly, and were ready
to promise the directors big DIVIDEND
if the cars could be at once run to thai
place. The Inspector thinks the oele-
cate is correct about the promises OF the
neople of Gramtevillc. They want the
trolly and are ready to give liberal
patronage. The inspector is not a STOCK
holder in the road, but if he was no resi-
would be given the directors until the
question of running to both GraniteVllle
