The General Superintendent OF the

report for the fiscal year ending June
SOth, 1904, recently made public,agaip
earnestly urges the extending the
retirement system of th@ army ana

recommendation is apparent TO
everyone, who is posted as TO the
arduous and hazardous duties which
thew have to perform and the usefu'
ness of the services rendered oy
them. Common justice demands
that the men, who in the discharge
of their duties have to endure al
kinds Of hardship and exposure
should be taken care of when uls
abled in the service or are urht 1or
further service by reason OF advanc
ing age. This provision should Or

The last session of the Fifty-eighth
Congress convened at noon Monday
and the message of the President
was sent in on the following day.
The message is lengthy one and
contains much with which the pub
lie is familiar, as to the Philippines,
corporations, the relations OF labor
apd capital, the necessity for great
or navy, and the attitude of the
United States towards the South
American republics, his utterance in
regard to the United States as
world power" on naval expansion
and as to the South American coun-
tries being vigorous in the extreme
He recommends the enactment OF a
law directed against bribery and cor
ruption in Federal elections, along
the line suggested by Judge Parker,
the Democratic candidate for Presi-
dent. He would leave the details OF
law to Congress, but says that it
SHOULD go as far as, under the Con
stitution, it is possible to go, and
should include severe penalties
against him who gives or receives =
bride intended to influence his act OF
opinion as an elector; and provides
for the publication, not only OF the
expenditures for nominations and
elections of all candidates, but also of
all contributions received and ex-
penditures made by political COM
mittees."
He especially commends to the i'm
mediate consideration of Congress
the ercourag cement Of our merchant
marine by appropriate legislation"
Other subjects referred to and dis
cussed by the President are the
growth of agriculture and the work
of the Department of Agriculture IT.
rigation, forests, public lands, In
dams, pensions, Oriental markets,
national quarantine, the consular
service, immigration and naturaliz .

No part of his message, however, is
Of more interest to the people of Vir
ginia than his hearty endorsement Of
the jamestown celebration. OF this
he says:
I'm 1907 there will be held at Hamp-
ton Roads the tricentennial celebra
