Geo. Q. Cannon is telling the people in
the East that the Mormons do not now
live in polygamy. That those who were
living with plural wives have ceased to
do SO, but yet they provide for these
wives and their children. PoIygsmy is
carried on to-day in Utah as openly as it
has ever been. In Salt Lake City few

states, simply for effect. Cannon, like

The Hiah School Ruildina.

The new high school building, at the
corner of Tenth and Minnesota streets, is

dence of D. w. Willard, architect, at a
cost for building and heating apparatus of
little less than 100000. portion of the
third story is unfinished. The plans, as
some time ago described in the GLOBE.
gave the form and style of the building.
If we consider its internal completeness,
substantial construction and fine external
effects, with the cost, it greatly excels
other public buildings of the city. The
basement has rooms for the superinten-
dent of education and clerk of board of
education, book room, fire proof vault,
board room, janitor's apartments, wa
ter closets, chemical laboratory, physical
laboratory and work rooms, and boiler and
fuel rooms. In the first story, fifteen feet
high, is the principals Office, four large
school roons, three training school rooms,
and the chemical lecture room. The
second story, also fifteen
feet high. contains five
large school rooms and the assembly room
which is twenty feet high with 700 sit

offices. The stairways are to be all of iron
and fre-proof. A novel feature will
be the iron-bridge construction
of the three upper floors, SO that in case
of fire these stories will not be wrecked,
but remain standing complete. Another
will be that the windows will be hung
without weights and cords, but swinging
both ways-with patent fxtr res, now in
use in New York and other large cities.
Another is that the ventilating and light
shafts are so introduced as to form no part
of the interior construction, Throughout
are used all proper precautions, based on
experience, to make the building safe and
durable, and adapted to the uses for which
it is to be built. 1t will be provided with
hydraulic elevators and heated throughout
by steam from plant of boilers on the
rear of the lot, outside of the building.
The easements are designed for use of the
stores, except that the corner one may be
finished for a restaurant. The elevation
of the building, as shown by the engrav-
ing in the GLOBE to-day, promises struc-
ture which in appearance as we'll as con-
struction, will be credit to the chamber
and TO the city.

postponed from year to year because the
gentleman having charge of the project
were looking ahead for time when the
cost of labor and materials should be at
the lowest ebb, is likely to be begun dur
ing the year beginning tomorrow. It is
not likely to be finished within the one
year, because it is public enterprise and
because it is to be very large building,
intended for city and county building
for all time. But just what the building
will be no man or newspaper reporter can
tell. Several years ago the commission
accepted and adopted a plan which the
architect afterwards gave with some in
terror notifications but no material
change Of the exterior to the state for its
new capitol building. Since then an earlier
discussion as to what the city and county
building should be has been revived with
renewed interest on the part of those who
are opposed to adopting the typical ideas
of the "Palais de Ville," ETC., of foreign
municipalities. They urge that the COM
,mendable characteristics of st. Paul
should be conformed to and the traffic
value of the surrounding streets be pro
moted by covering the four sides
of the court house square with bust
ness blocks of three or four stories, the
first floors and Easements of which, with
such offices above as are not needed for
public uses, could be rented to business
men and retail merchants. In behalf of
this scheme or plan of construction it is
argued that palace placed upon the Gen.
ter of the court house square, though its
construction may cost millions, will sooner
or later prove too small for the yearly
growing business of city and county; and
that the construction of store and Office
blocks around the square would give
enough room for all time, besides being in
conformity with the simplicity appropri-
ate to republicanism, democracy and bust
ness. The old fogy arguments against
this scheme have the advantage Of being
advanced by hard-hesded men
who are in position to put their opinions
into execution. These say that the courts
cannot be properly held in such near
proximity to noisy business streets as
would be necessary if these public build
lngs were placed on the street lines. The
judges, they say, would be made nervous,
then distracted and finally be driven to
profanity by the roll and rattle of street

The Grund Opern House.

This institution being one of the most
prominent building Improvements of the
year, highly valued addition to st. Paul
and in all important respects most credit
able to owner, architect, builders, decora-
tors and filters, ought to have had name
worthy of it, instead of: the name of
Grand which has been made unmeaning
by its common use for cheap show houses.
This building cost 100000 without any
expenditure for outside finish or decora-
ton. 1t is situated at the rear of the old
opera house, having the same main en-
trance, but enlarged, ornamented and
leveled, and, having the new Club house
solid walls are visible to passer5 by only
at the broad carriage way to the Fourth
street side entrance. Much was saved OF
costfor ornament by the position of the
building, but the lavish expenditure for
safety and the richness of the interior
have more than exhausted that saving.
There are provided for occasions of panic
or necessary haste as many as twenty con-
venient exits from the building, and
enough on either side to let out en- audi
ence by that one side in less than three
minutes All these exits are carefully
guarded against fire, and while large
portion of the interior of the b7ildirg S
necessarily combustible yet non-coD.-
bustible materials have been used as
much as possible, and no fire except al the
gas jets is used within the walls, the heat
ing being from steam plant outside.
Then the security Of audiences is further
guarded by the great strength ofthe walls,
by strong construction throughout,
and by the supports OF
stage, floors and galleries ali
resting on massive stone piers and walls
securely founded on the bed rock Of The
locality. The proportions and lines of the
interior are admirable to view, and fer The
