TINE FOR NATIONAL SOCIAL REFORMS.

ITH abundant crops, the gift of nature to our favored
NJ WY land, and consequently with Astounding business pros
r perity, which always attends the bounty of nature,
we have a national outlook that is unclouded, for there are no
omens of trouble for MS abroad. We can complacentIy compare
IS these conditions with what is witnessed in Europe. where there
ahayt been crop failures which we must make up and where the
shadows of a great war are gathering. But we have great
national problems to solve and this is the auspicious time to
! lake them up courageousy. Prosperity does not endure, and a
senaton should put its house in order while it continues. A rich
country, blessed with an abundance for it's people, can accom-
reforms thata poor country not so blessed would be unable
or danclined to undertake. The greatest problems we have to
deal with are social, and it is evident that the American people
are becoming thoroughly awakened to the necessity for their
proper solution.
