The legislature which convened al
Topeka at 70 O'Clock Tuesday should ap-
ply itself without delay TO the work be-
fore il if it desires 10 accomplish within
the time allotted to the session what is
expected Of it by the people Its duties
are numerous and important, and while
the measures which shall claim its at
tention will, of necessity, elicit more or
less discussion, there should be a stead
fast purpose on the part of the members
to expend as little time in the direction
of oratorical display as is consistent with
a proper presentation of the differ
emit questions with which the legisla-
ture will be called to deal. The pro-
duction of wind pudding, to employ a
Kansas parlance, should be reduced TO
TIM minimum, aud the time which is
too often consumed in the manufacture
of that frothy commodity, should be
economically employed in the accom-
plishment of solid work. Il is not neces-
sary that every dawning statesman, with
a theory on the question. of railrosd leg
islation or congressional apporiionmeni,
should ventilate his views, however
deeply he may be impressed with the
maturity of his Judgment and the gravi-
ty of his convictions The over-wcening
propensity for speech making
which is so frequently
developed among our lawmakers, re-
tards 10 very serious degree the work
of the Legislature aud too often defeats
the object which it seeks TO aid.
1t Is sincerely to be hoped that at the
present session personal ambition and
vanity will be lost sight of in haT-
monious and honest effort 10 promote
the best interests of the people and TO
perfect such measures as shall make for
the peace and progress of the common
wealth.

An architect IN New York, speaking
Of building material, says: "Under the
rational order OF things, brick will sur
vive centuries without showing its age I;
but an iron structure, under the best care,
will begin to show the weight of years
by the close OF its first century. The
iron age has gone by in New York. Ten
years ago il was atils height, as witness
the blocks OF iron buildings in Mercer
and Greene streets and below Canal
street. II was ell iron then. History is
being repeated. Now we are going back
10 frst principles. The first buildings
OF any importance that were constructed
on Manhattan Island were of brick.

they made by the old Washington Hotel

century. The brick in them was
