THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

The brief account of the Presidents message to Congress contained in the dispatches from Washing create favorable impression, and emphasize the conclusion that Congress should accept the Presidents leadership if it desires make progress in meeting the circumstances and problems of the country.
 The optimistic predictions concerning the Arms Conference in progress at Washington are en- couraging
 The recommendation that Congress again take up the taxation question and make provision for the further reduction of and the abolition of hn- dering burdens is hope creating
 The information that a plan is be'ng worked out that will ahe expansion of out merchant marine without causing drain the treasury is more than pleasing. Let hope fl at the conclusion :nat the measure when presented will argue it's approval may be fully justified.
 The suggestion that there be proper encourage ment for cooperative marketing programs also is promising This is a matter however that the pro- ducers could improve if they would under conditions they exist California fruit growers and others have already solved it in large measure. Others help themselves greatly by emuating their example
 This encouragement and the building of highways and restoration of the balance between town and country matters in which the State Governments if they would could do than the National Govern nent ought to do. Most of these problems less local in their character. The cond- tons in section of the country different from those in another Most of the immediate domestic problems of the people matters that could be better met by governments operating closer the condt.on to be overcome than is the Federal Government
 And right here is good place at which to express the hope that the Governors convention in session at Charleston will consider these matters Those Governors who justly compain of the encroachments of the National Government upon the provinces of the State Governments should understand that the best way to stop these encroachments would be for the State Governments to the functions that have been left to the Federal Government and meet tho governmnta demands of the people If the Sta es would do this they would encourage the people to look toward State capitals rather than Washington, and if the people did that there would be no need for fear ot aggressions from Congress Senators and Repre- sontatives come from the people and they have shown on many occasions that they are not unmindfu of public opinion.

The Real Issue.

 While the scattered elections of last week mainly what resembed Gen. Hancocks description of the tariff local issues" there two somewhat suggestive points of interest. Even after all qualifications to geography-as in the dimming of Republican hopes in Virginia by the Harding "colored' speech-or to dislike of prohibition in Buffalo and other places, and the general off season" aspect there remains residuum of resent ment against things they that possesses some spcial significance.
 If of to be expected that the phenom- Presidential election would be whttled down sub stantally Not for very many years will complete party triumph be again likely possible Many would that such prospect is itself whole some, holding with Alexander Hamilton that fairly active and threatening" opposition party is good thing politically. Also it is almost common place that the American temperament in general is given to wide swings of the pendulum. It's heroes-indi- yidual or eoectve-don't keep their pedestas long.
 But all these general any particular local fac tors will not explain away the extent of Democratic gain and Republican loss in the municipal and state results of last week. Too many supposedly invnner- able citadels in widely separated sections sud denly lost to allow of other than nearly universal deduction that the party in nationally has lest a good deal of the confidence it earlier had This does not apply much to the Administration proper now attempting of the biggest achiev ements in history. But it does apply to the peoples repre- sentaives in Congress. It may be lucky for of these that they not candidates for reelection just now.
