mittee of twenty-five 10 organize a National civic
Federation This committee is to he composed NJ
men representing different parts Of the country
and different phases Of social economic and politi-
cal questions Of the day. The object Of such an
organization is stated to be 10 provide for thor
ough discussion and consideration OF questions OF
National importance affecting either the foreign or
domestic policy Of the United States to aid TN tho
GENERALIZATION Of the enlightened public scnti-
ment I'm the country I'm respect thereto. and 10
promote necessary legisla In accordance there
with.
The leaders Of the Chicago Federation have con-
templated this movement FOR some time, deemns
It essential If a National work to become any
thing more than educational IN January, lNs, the
Chicago civic Federation calied National confer
ence On primary elections and municipal reform,
which was held in New-York. and was attended
nv representatives ~ forty Of the largest cities
Of the United states. The impetus given N ths
conference by primary election reform agitation
resulted in both New-York and Illinois securing
new laws at the following sessions Of their respect
I'VE Legislatures. But beyond this and the puhca-
ton and distribution OF proceedings, the Chicago
Federation has found it impractcabe to 90.
In August. 1898 IL called at Saratoga A National
conference on the oreign policy Of the United

by leading men OF an parties. unanimously agreed
on some broad general principles which called for
further effort to render it Of permanent value 10
the country. This work could not be followed up
by the Chicago org inizaton. The four days trust
conference, recently held In Chicago. MAS not on
pocted TO agree general principles, but II WAS
believed tho fro" discussion by representatives, ~
50 many schools Of thought would furnish material
and q basis for more thorough work hereafter. II
IS 80 make II possible 10 follow up the practical
lines suggested by the conference that the National
