 has been revised, the chamber has been 

 liberated and set in the way of con- 

 structive legislation, while the electorate 

 has been given a wider privilege of

 courts have been given tenure and re- 

 moved from political control. 



The ministries have been reorganized 

 and purged and the civil service has been 

 set, upon a merit basis. Agriculture and 

 commerce have been taken under the 

 charge of a new ministry. ^Municipalities 

 have been granted new rights and charged 

 with new duties ; and a general quick- 



ening and efficiency have been infused 

 into all branches of the administration.

 upon the work of reorganizing the army 

 and the navy, and French and English

 joint maneuvers of last spring and dem- 

 onstrated beyond question in the engage- 

 ments of the war which is now drawing 

 to its close.
