If anything on the part of the chief executive indicates his desire to legislate for the benefit of the entire country, irrespective of I the honor to be gained in obeying the wish of those who put him and the other legislators in office, jt must be this attitude. Much legislation, in all respect good and needed has bsen pigeonholed because some one thought the other fellow was going to get the " credit. :' This legislative jealousy has imped ed many a worthy invention or dis covery. .Personal jealousy has many times stood in the way of some wor thy fellow's advancement. " - There is really no genuine cure for this deepseated ailment, other than the presence of a number of big men whose 'minds are not on the ettw some measure will have on their politi cal fortunes, or public prestige. . A mind big enough to outline' the bogy of wanting fame will help to live down this fear and allow the bet ter and finer instincts of sincere men to support measures originating with some one not of their particular con viction.' It is one of the most hopeful signs that after many years of fac tional feeling and bitter strife, in which the better interests of the peo-1 pie were often forgotten, men are be-1 ginning to realize their duty to their constituents. : ,-.
