BABY ANNIE.
BY JENNIE r. EAGRB.

Annie g., daughter of W. ScotG, and Min.
ale W. Vel Gon. went to heaven September
jth, 1882.
Whenever clouds or oceans roll,
On sterile mount, al fertile plain,
This question pre- SOS every soul,
ShaIl our departed live again
Here sweet the answering echo comes,
That death Is but apleaSant sleep,
A resting for earih's tired ones,
A soft repose for eyes that weep.
Thus baby, wearied out with pain,
one baImy morning gently slept,
Crossed DER the tempest lashing main.
And anchored safe, while others wept;
Exempt from all the pangs Of death.
From partings which we 80 much dread;
No shadows fit athwart the path
Where little angel footsteps tread.
Around that snow white covered Glib,
How many tacred memories cling;
That aching head, that feVered lip
To ca sh lone heart, deep lessons bring.
Ave: Death hath lett whitening smart
For all the titful " nTs to come,
A silent chamber in the heart
An empty corner In the heme.
Our Father doth his children chide;
On every fieshly tablet writes,
BY blighted hoL es and joys denied
Ye, to your better home invites.
Imurove each swiftly giGing day;
Tnis golden season God hath given,
That ye with her, may live 'or aye,
Throughout tie changeless age Of Heaven.

What is the remedy? There are
a number. The state printing Office
should be sold out completely. The
present law should be so applied as
to give all the printing to one
be compelled to have its Office
in Austin. The law should be
amended so as to make contracts run
four, five or more years. By this
means the work could be secured to
the state at minimum rate, and yet
the contractor could make a rea-
sonable profit. A clerk in some
one of the departments should
bel Ia practical printer, through
whose hands all acquisitions should
pass from all departments to be ex-
amined and estimated upon, and
returned to the respective depart
ments for delivery to the printer.
This process, coupled with legisla-
tive committee, would operate as a
check upon all parties; and even
granting that any crookedness
should be discovered, the contrac-
tors bond secures the state.
ItGen. McLeary and Capt. Bow
man will examine into this thing
carefully, believe they will recon-
mend a change. They are each high
toned, honest gentlemen. Neither
is so cOnceited as TO believe himself
competent to do that which men
must have years of experience to do
rightly; neither of them is chronic
of1ice-seeker who deals in buncombe;
and either of them is fully capable
to draw the correct conclusion when
the premises of a logical proposition
are given. Hence l express the hope
that they will take the matter in
hand and mind, and give the next
legislature majority report OF the
board touching the prospective bo-
nanza. w. A. SHAW.

Gus were the comments upon and nu

WHY THE THING FELL.
Our artist has furnished partial view
of the building, but short description
at this time will probably prove of inter.
est. The dimensions of the building are
100 feet frontage on the Avenue, 16C
feet on Mesquite street (the side photo
grsphed), and 81 feet deep. The total
height of the building, from the sidewalk
to the top of the cornice, is SO feet, di
vided into three floors, as follows
Height of the first story IA feet, of the
second 16 feet and of the third Is feet.
In general plan the building is di
vided into three departments, namely
first floor the executive departments,
second floor the senate chamber and
representative hall, and the third floor
the courts and libraries.
The house is L shaped in construction,
and the wing which fell yesterday con-
tanned the comptroller's department,
representative hall and supreme court
room. The walls were about completed,
so far as the masonry was concerned,
andthe roof was being put on.
THE WRECK.
The part of the building which fell
was the wing on the Mesquite street
frontage, about ninety feet OF the
wall, and also few feet of the western
wall fronting the governors mansion.
The wreck, so far as it goes, is complete,
the walls literally crumbling to pieces
even down 10 their very base, and the
wood work and partition walls of laths
and timber being twisted into almost ev-
cry conceivable shape.
WHAT THE SUPERVISING ARCHITECT SAYS.
A reporter of the STATESMAN sought
Mr.. Duhamel. the expert of the CAPT,
toll board and supervising architect
of the building, with a view to securing
his explanation of this much to be regret
ted catastrophe. That gentleman attri.
butes the fall IF the building to the effects
of the terrific rain storm Wednesday
night. He says that the wooden sheath
ing, or, untechnically speaking, the
plauking which was to receive the tin
roofing, was finished just to the point
where it let off the immense volume of
water which fell on to the walls that
the walls being new and the mortar not
having time to "set," the water in such
endless quantity weakened the walls, and
the new timber, becoming soak
ed, swelled, and very naturally
forced the walls out. This
is the theory of the builder, Mr.. James
B. Smith, and also of Mr.. F. E. Ruftini,
the architect who furnished the plans by
which the building was being con.
structed.

The Record.

In answer to the charges that the mate
rial used in the temporary capitol was
not of the proper kind, it has been ,laim
ed that the contract provided for the
erection of the new building out of the
material in the old state buildings. Upon
he'subject the specification reads:
I'm the construction of this building
such materials are to be used out of the
old capitol building, the treasury build
ing, supreme court building, and the ter
race in the capitol grounds, as are sou'ad
and GUdildbLe."
If we understand English correctly,
there is nothing in that clause compelling
the contractors to use any material thai
was not sound and dUdiLdble, and abso
lutely not a syllable of evidence for the as
sumption that the temporary capitol
should be erected out of any particular
material
The weekly democratic statesman. [volume] (Austin, Tex.) 1871-1883, 1882-09-14
The Temporary Capitol.
Editor Of the STATESMAN


The recent collapse of the tempo
rary capitol building has lett an
open question to be decided prompt.
ly. What is to be donep Shall the
front of the building be allowed to
stand, the rear rebuilt and the work
be accepted by the state, or shall the
whole structure be condemned and
rebuilt?
Whilst our citizens sympathize
with the contractor aud his secu-
rites and their probable loss, still it
is a matter of congratulation that no
lives were lost, and a possible and
very probable accident involving
the lives of hundreds must have oc-
Cured when the building was fin
ished and occupied by the legisla-
ture.
There is only one course to
persue in this matter. The
whole building should be con-
demned aud rebuilt from the foun-
dation up, or abandoned, no mat
ter what the cost may be or who suf-
fers. No amount OF patching or re-
modelling would ever convince peo-
pie the building was safe, and the
legislature if convened in that edi-
nee, remodeled and rebuilt, without
a new foundation, new walls from
front to rear and In fact q new
building would rarely have any
audience to listen to their delibera-
tions. If the walls in the side and
rear, exposed by this fortunate acci-
dent, may be taken as fair sample
of the manner of construction of the
front walls now standing, they too are
liable to fall at any time. Even ifthey
were all right citizens would never
feel secure in the building and gov
ernmental employees and members
of the legislature, necessarily COM
PEELED to take the chances, would
want heavy life insurance policies.
The prospect of being entombed in
the debris of a falling building
might possibly dampen the ardor OF
patriots anxious to serve the state
for consideration, and this view of
the matter should be considered.
If this building is to be patched
up, and the state officials are power
less to compel its demolition and re-
building substantially, the city
council should take the matter in
hand. In all well governed cities
no buildings can be erected
without plans and specifications are
filed with an inspector, aud they are
subject TO his supervision if deemed
unsafe they are condemned and such
alterations as the inspector deems
necessary must be made. In public
buildings this inspection and super
vision should be rigid and exacting,
reference being had not only to So
lidity and safety In construction, but
also to ample provision for escape in
case Of fire.
So far as the state is concerned
there could be no objection to the
Inspection of state buildings erected
within the corporation limits OF
Austin. Any precautions taken to
secure lives and property, no matter
from what source they may emanate
win be appreciated by all good citi'
zens. CITIZEN.

THE LOSSES.

1t would be difficult I'M
/ der any circumstances to ar,
rive at anything like accuracy IN
estimating the loss upon a matter like
this, and even to approximate in this
case is decidedly unreliable. Opinions
differ among experts, but it is believed
that, provided the debris can be cleared
away, the broken walls removed and re-
built, the loss will be in the nelghbor'
hood of seven or eight thousand dollars.
This estimate is predicated, however,
upon the assumption-and just now it is
but an assumption-that the balance of
the building is in good condition
and will not have to be con-
demned. The loss will fall upon
Mr.. Smith, the contractor, legally con-
sidered, as he is under bond to deliver
the house completed by the first of Janua
ry. If the theory of the supervising
architect as to the causes which produc-
ed the wreck be correct, then this loss
will entail great hardship upon Mr..
Smith. 1t is to be remembered just
here, however, that there are those hardy
enough to disagree with Mr.. Duhamel
and believe the catastrophe which has
occurred, because of bad material
and worse workmanship was only
hastened by the elements on
Wednesday night, and that this precipi-
tation of what was bound to occur was
special act of Providence brought about
in the interest of valuable lives in
the future. Among those enter
tanning the latter view may be
found contractors and builders of
experience, and they are, in our judg-
ment, fortified in their opinion by look
at the walls, after the latter had sue
