All the algns are for a complete revival and a period of activity without prece dent. Employment la Increasing, wage are stable, new enterprises re arising In all parts of the country Prospects for good harvests are en couraging. All this has come about wlthoiK an eatra session of Congress and In spite of the hurtful filibutter by which Republicans defeated Im portant legislation at the very out art of "reconstruction." If the Republican leaders of the next Congress attempt to hamper President Wilson, Instead of going about the business of passing the measures which a Democratic Admin Istratlon framed and would have enacted but for their obstruction, thty will halt the recovery of Indus try and InvKe trouble. Not President Wilson, but the people at large will be the sufferers . ' It begins to appear, however, that discord and factionalism will prevent the Republican majority from adopt ing and pursuing an affirmative, con structive course of legislation In 4he Sixth-sixth Congress. They were almost unanimous In thelr opposition to the Democratic program, but they give signs, of being hopelessly lack ing In unity as to any other policy. Hut there is something worse than Hepubl lean Inability to aeree. on a plan of obstruction bad though that be. That Is, they might combine to undo the good work which the Democrats have accomplished in the last six years of their ascenlancy. And they have threatened to do that very thing. IMX'AI.LI X1 Til K IHXT.AHATION' To Immortalize the slirners of the senatorial "round robin" Against the league of nutlous, the lllepubllcaii Publicity Association, apparently as the proxy of the Republican Nation al Committee, Issued a colorful litho graphed entitled "The Second Dec laration of Independence." Kmbed ded In the trbt of this "declaration" were the portraits of Republican Sen ators who Bought Imperishable famo and votes by their sudden and violent outcry against President Wilson's proposal. Dut it has become evident that these Senators fear this particular brand of Immortality. It threatened to become undying obloquy. Unlike the aigners of the true Declaration of Independence, these Senators hare not continued steadfast. They have begun to weaken and qualify and apologize. And now the "declaration portraits, Old English text. Illu minations and all has been with drawn from circulation. Copies of It will be more inaccessible in o few weeks than the original Declaration Is after 143 years. The signature of Senator Penrose Is thus denied the chance to grow aa familiar to the eyes of American school children as John Hansosk's It! In this suppression of the "second declaration" there la comfort for the public, as there must be also for the Republican Senators. It evidences a better appreciation of American sen timent than the Issuance of this gro tesque document did. It purported to be a manifesto of Independence. De velopments In the last two months have convinced the public, if not its Republican signers, that it was an exhibition of tmpuuence. WORIJVH (iRKATEHT MINH F1HIJ) Bit by bit the story of the wonder ful part the American navy played in winning the war is being unfolded. A sample of the assistance the navy gave the Allies in bringing about the down fall of the Central Powers is seen in the laying of the world's ETeatest mine field, now being swept accomplished by the division of the American fleet under Rear Admiral Strauss.

One by one Republican "Issues have vanished like will o' the wisps. The conduct of the war, the making of peace, the letjue of nations all have failed them as partisan battle cries. Only the tariff remains, but it is so old and decrepit and feeble that It may shortly pass away. Some Republican papers are say ing that Republicans and the "Pro gressives" will "get ..together" dur ing the next session of Congress. Judging the factions wholly by their exchanges of "courtesies," It Is pret ty certain that If they do "get togeth er" some one will have to call the police.
