Itis a brave meesage that the pres- ident sent to congress last Friday, andisneededat thistime, Allirlends of reform have reason to rejoice that the president has used his high post- tion to call atsention to the wrongs that need to be remedied. He has discovered the running sore in our national life. He has pointed out the corrupting influences that flow from predatory wealth and the mo- nopolistic enterprises which have give en unearned riches to the few, who, by controlling the great Industries of the nation have levied tribute on the whole country. His warnings are entirely In har- mony with the warnings which dem- ocrats have been uttering for more than a decade, and I hope that the democrats in the senate and house will promptly challenge the republi- cans to meet the issues that have been presented by the prestdent. ought to be enough republt- cans {n the two houses to join with the democrats and insure some reme- dial legislation at this session. It there be none the public ought to know It, so that when the next na- tional republican convention en- dorses the present #dministration the hypocrtay of the endorsement will be understood, The president has discussed the relative spheres of the state and of the.nation, We hope thatin the measures which may be introduced in response to this appeal there will be no attempt to takefrom the states any power that they now have. The democrats are {in favor of the present power vested in the congress, but they want the national remedies added to the state remedies and not substituted for them. If the presi- dent’s republican friends will join with the democrats in devising legis lation which will be effective and yet within the recognized constitutional power of congress, great good may be accomplished betore congress ad- journs. The president has {issued a call to arms. Now les the battle begin and we shall soon be able to pick out the purchased newspapers and the pur- chased legislators described by the president, but not specifically named. —Commoner. assistant Postmaster General. | Caught by a Souvenir Postal.
