ONE TERM OF SIX YEARS.


The Courier Journal received letter
the other day from'one OF the merchant
princes Of ST. Louis, urging it to advo.
cate constitutional amendment limit
ing tho Presidency to single term of
SIX years. In answer the writer SAID
that whilst the paper might support such
a proposal in case 1t presented itself In
some responsible and tangible form, it
wss by nature and habit wary OF novel
ties and adverse to innovation. The
more consideration the suggestion, how
ever, the more it will impress thoughtful
people; particularly in view OF what is
just now going forward.
To some one who doubted whether
Washington had throw silver dellar
across the Potomac river, Mr., Evarts
said. You will remember dollar went
much further in those days than now"
By this token. four years were longer n
hundred years ago than they seem to be
today. A President is scarcely warm In
the White house when another election
rolls round. Each President devoies
his fret term 10 pipe laying for second
term. One year in four the country is
torn up by the roots as ii we're by our
qnadrennial bipartisan campaigns Be
