Justice, and only justice, shall always r
be our motto. ^
"And yet it will be no cool probess j
of mere science. The nation has been (
deeply stirred, stirred by a solemn |
passion, stirred by the knowledge of ]
wrong, of ideals lost, of govern- j
ment too often debauched and made ,
an instrument of evil. The feelings
with which we face this new age of j
right and opportunity sweep across (
our heart-strings like some air out .
of God's own presence, where justice (
and mercy are reconciled and the j
judge and the brother are one. Wo ,
know our task to be no mere task of j
politics but a task which shall search ,
us through and through, whether we |
be able to understand our time and j
the need of our people, whether we |
be indeed their spokesmen and interpreters,
whether we have the pure ,
heart to comprehend and the rectified j
will to choose our high course of ac- ,
tion. ,
"This is not a day of triumph; it is ,
a day of dedication. Here muster, not \
the forces of party, but the forces of ]
humanity. Men's hearts wait upon us; (
men's lives hang in the balance; s
men's hopes call upon us to say what (
we will do. Who shall live up to the ,
great trust? Who dares fail to try? ,
I summon all honest men, all patri- ,
otic, all forward-looking men, to my ,
side. God helping me, I will not fail (
them, if they but counsel and sus- ,

HE 62ND CONGRESS; T
WHAT IT HAS DONE'
S
Washington, March 2.?With the r
adjournment of Congress Tuesday r
loon, the end will be written to two
fears of epoch-making struggle with- c
n party ranks; and to three sessions
>f effort, only partially successful, *
;o adjust the differences between a
Democratic House, a Senate under
Democratic-Progressive control, and c
? Republican President.
Many important pieces of legislation
have been enacted within that
time; investigations of a peculiar significance
to the public have been coniucted;
and many subjects of general
interest have been laid aside without
action. The tariff, attacked alike
from Democratic and Republican
sources twice during that period, has
been the subject of attempted revision,
but none of the proposed changes
iecame effective.
The 62nd Congress opened in 1911
with a special session called by Presdent
Taft to consider Canadian re;iprocity;
it ends with an extra session
of the 63rd Congress only a few
weeks away, to be called by President
Wilson for a general revision of the
Payne-Aldrich tariff law. National
inventions, the birth of a new party,
i general election, and a complete
:hange of administration have intervened
between its beginning and its
;nd. Activities of the short session
iow closing have been limited almost
mtirely to a routine work, because
>f the determination to leave to the
lew administration all of the imlortant
subjects of a general charicter.
Perhaps the most important develipments
of the entire Congress are
he following:

with Cabinet officer at its head.

y of railroads and other common ^
arriers in order to form basis for

Canadian reciprocity law passed, v

Investigation made of formation
ind operation of the United States
Steel Corporation.
These comprise but a few of the
aws passed, investigations conductid,
treaties passced on, and legislate
subjects considered during the
wo years of the 62nd Congress. The
wo great personal struggles, involvng
William Lorimer and Judge Archmid,
ran throughout the Congress;
ind with their interesting personal
>hases helped to draw attention from
;he actual legislative work of the
wo years.
While Congress passed an eightlour
law covering all Government
:ontracts except on the Panama Calal,
it took no action on three imjortant
subjects: anti-injunction,
vorkmen's compensation, and antirust
legislation. Recommendations
vere made by a Senate committee
vithin the last week, for fadical
hanges in the anti-trust law to retore
competitive conditions and premt
monopoly; and they may bear
ruit in legislation under {he new adninistration.
The final session, now ending, has
witnessed a struggle in the Senate
etween Republicans and Democrats,
hat prevented the confirmation of
he greater part of President Taft's
ppointments. With more than 2,000
.ppointments before the Senate,
Jemocrats declined to permit action
n the great majority, and the restm
/ill be that President Wilson, wi\)
ill the places after he comes into
ffice.- ,,
This factional struggle, coupled
/ith the internal Democratic con~
est for the organization and control
f Senate and House under the new <
administration, injected the political
quation into the last session's work
o an unusual degree. Several bills
hat might have become law in the
losing days of this session have been
eld back because Democratic leadrs
preferred to have the subject
arried over until a Democratic
'resident, Senate and House, can
ave an opportnity to carry out defiite
legislative programmes.
Important actions in the short sesion
just closing include:
"Literacy test" immigration bill
assed, but vetoed by President Tafv.
Single six-year Presidential term
mendment passed by senate.
Life prisoners in Federal prisons
iade eligible to parole.
Five-year closed season for fur
eals incorporated in the internation1
seal treaty.

The Democratic majority that took
ontroll of the House when the Conress
organized insisted on going ,
head with other features of tariff
evision and passed wool, cotton, free
st and some other bills. All three >
measures with the aid of the Prorpssive
Republican forces in the
enate reached President Taft. They
'ere vetoed on the ground that the
ariff board was conducting invesigations,
the results of which must
e known before a proper revision of
the tariff could be made.
Legislative work throughout the
pecial session, and the long session
unning through last of August, inluded
the following:
Increase in the size of the House of
Representatives, from 396 to 43&
Age and service pension law inreasing
