with the date of inauguration,
the time for the meeting of
Congress, ap.d the holding of
e.teiroiis on the first Tuesday
iter the first Monday of No
vtmber. But now nearly a hunj
>:;r&d million people have a fin
ter in some part of the scheme
o; things, and there is crying
reed for many changes; never
theless our young government
■ s so wedded to its own cus
tums that it is almost impossi
ble to break away from the old
tune order. Senator Work* of
California, evidently feeling c-n
ouraged by tj;* jaci that thr

twice within the past few
weeks, has tackled the problem
