In the first place Bo previous Congress sat so continuously in session. Over 17,000 bills and joint resolutions were introduced, upon which nearly 7,000 re- ports were made by committees, and of which 1,791, or alittle over ten per cent, became laws. Thirty per cent of these were public measures, the rest of ® private nature. During the life of this Congress more of its work was negatived by the President than ever before in the history of the country. Mr. Cleveland vetoed 278 bills during his term, and 146 were bills passed by the late Congress. The legislation accomplished is for the most part necessary and salutary. Four new ‘states have been admitted, an inter-oceanic canal authorized, a new cabinet secretaryship created, the irrigation of the vast arid region provided for in part, besides many other notable achievements in legisla- tion. Much failed. The tariff is still un- changed; the Pacific roads were not brought to taw; the Blair bill again bit the dust; woman's suffrage is still on the knees of the gods; the dependent pension bill did not be- come a law; the land forfeiture problem was not solved; the extradition treaty was rejected; the fisheries question left almost untouched. Measured by what it did not do, the Fiftieth Congress may not seem so important, but judged by its protracted labors and the laws it actually did put on the book it wasa great Con- gress, well worthy to mark the centennial term in the life of the government, $$ If the people of the District were consulted concerning the manner in which the vacancy in their Supreme Court should be filled they would doubtless make at least three suggestions or requests. First, they might reasonably ask that the nominee for this responsible and im- portant judicial position should be a practising lawyer, and that fitness for such office, which depends both upon legal training and natural days when everything will be finished—and when it is ‘there'll not bes more thoroughly stocked house in the country, There has been lots ‘to select from— quantities of it—good, bad, and indifferent—but we've selected the best of all we've seen.

Lastly, they would undoubtedly ‘rep- resent that both the general and special fitness which have been indicated as desirable would be secured by selecting for judge a member of the District bar, a course which commends itself both to a thoughtful and sound judgment, and to republican good faith in pursuance of the pledges of approximate home rule to the territories of the United States. The District Supreme Court xercises peculiarly extensive jurisdiction, and the labors and responsibilities imposed upon itare many and great. It is toosmall in num- bers and the salaries paid are inadequate. But @ position upon it is a life-office of dignity, honor and wide influence. While there may be some lawyers, otherwise fitted for the office, who are unwilling to make the business sacri- fices involved in its acceptance, the same diffi- culty will be experienced whether a local or a carpet-bag appointment be determined upon. ‘The District bar is large in numbers and strong im ability, and furnishes an abundance of the best material out of which to make District judges. The railroads have repeated their notable record of four years ago by transporting the vast crowds of inaugural visitors to and from the capital without serious accident, The po- lice arrangements of the inaugural period are also entitled to commendation, Major Moore and his men have handled admirably the crowds and the inevitable disorderly element in such gatherings, The ball was an unquali- fied success in every particular, and to a man under cover the parade was magnificent and impressive. Everybody in any way associated with the inaugural pro- ceedings has covered himself with glory, in proportion to the extent of his responsibilities and labors. The only drawback upon the en- thusiasm and the general but reasonable glori- fication, is imposed by recollection of the ex- cessive dampness of the afternoon of the Fourth, Washington washes its hands from all responsi- bility for the weather at this season. It has been long petitioning Congress for a change of inauguration day to the date of Washington's April 30th. Every inaugural vis- itor of 1889 should constitute bimself a com- mittee of one to impress upon his representa- fave in Congress the urgent importance of this change. oo ‘The building of the Canadian Pacific and the survey of western lands has given Canada a heavy debt.
