Selection of congressman Important
The selection of United States senators
and members of congress is one of the
most important functions we have to
discharge, for the congress of the United
States is the body which writes our great
national policies into the public law, and
without the cooperation of a congress in
sympathy with the national adminlstra-
ton, it must be greatly hampered and
embarrassed in carrying out policies to
which it stands pledged.
We have made our largest advance and
prospered most as a people when we have
adhered to sound and wholesome policies
in government, and we shall make our
greatest progress in the future by hold
ing fast to those measures and uphold,ng
that administration which have the full
est sanction OF the best experience. 1t is
important that policies and administra-
tions which have demonstrated their effi-
cheney should not be lightly overthrown,
and new and untried policies, or policies
which which have been tried and found
wanting, substituted for them. There is

1t is of the utmost importance II we
would attain to our highest development,
that we should inaugurate them, and
they are longer reasonably suited to our
needs. The business affairs of a great
people must rest upon stability. The peo-
pie must have a reasonable assurance
that II they sow today, they may reap
tomorrow; that If they plan for the en-
largement of their industrial activities,
there may be reasonable certainty that
the foundations upon which they build
are not to be swept away.

II a change is made in the control of
the house of representatives, and If the
strength of the opposition is increased in
the senate, as result Of the pending
elcton, q step will be taken towards a
change in national policies. This Is the
inexorable logic of the contest in which
the people are now engaged The repub-
lican majority in the senate Is so large
that it is not at all probable that the
complexion of the senate could be
changed as a result of the pending cam
paign, but it Is possible thOu-h not now

Under direction Of the board, $50
