“EVENING STAR Ww. D. WALLACH, Editor and Proprietor. WASHINGTON CITY: ---JUNE 1, 1966, @7 READING MATTER ON EVERY PAGE. SEE OUTSIDE FOR INTERESTING TELE- GBAPHIC AND OTHER Ma’ BECONCILIATION. In answer to many inquiries concerning the plan of the Senate’s Republican party's caucys for what is erroneously termed -‘ reconstruc- tion,” we have to say that it shows a far more hopeful state of things among the members of that body than had been heretofore exhibited. Thus, it amounts to an advance on their part to positions early taken by ttfe President. Not only thus taken by him, hut, in the main, al- ready consummated under his advice by the Jegisiatures and conventions of the States ‘Whose citizens were lately in rebellion. In view of this palpable fact, the simple questien arises, whether it isa point of importance to the country that these ends, already virtually attained, should be relabeled with the especial senatorial label Mr. Howard's seyeral amend- ments propose. Ifthe majority of the Senate are in earnest in their advance to the sensible snd patriotic conclusions on some points, to which their caucus arrived, the country may look for the speedy admission of the loyal Senators trom Tennessee and Arkansas to their seats, with- out conditions or qualifications. Otnerwise, their action in caucus must inevitably be taken by the country to be potning more than an et- fort to avert, in approaching elections, thedam- aging effect of the laie radical rule of Messrs. Sumner and Stevens, without thought of res- ¢cuing their pariy and the country from the heretcfore tmperious dictation of those gentle- men. What the country now wants is, in few ‘Words, the adoption by Congress of the policy ‘that bas been brought to the verge of comple- tion by the Administration. The President's policy is thus defined by the Secreiary of State, in his late.speech at Auburn. Namely: “THaT 50 FAR AND 80 PAST AS THE UN- REPRESENTED STAT: RESENT THEMSELVES IN A LOYAL ATTITUDE.
