Architects Think the Government
Needs More of Their Kind.


WASHINGTON, Oct. 22.-The annual
convention of the American Institute
of Architects began in this city to-day.
the meetings being held at the Arling-
ton hotel. The attendance was yery
encouraging, representing all parts of
the Union. Many interesting and val
liable reports will be presented and
papers read before the convention dur
ing Its three days session. But one
session was held to-day, and was chiefly
devoted to preliminary matter. John
Root, of Chicago. was the presiding Off
Ger, and he introduced Commission
er Douglass, of the District of
Columbia, who made an address of well
come to the delegates. At the concIu-
sion of Mr.. Douglass address Presiding
Officer Root announced that R.M. Hunt.
the president of the institute, was un-
able to be present on account of illness,
and his report Was read by one of the
board of directors. Mr.. Hunt said in
paper that no more appropriate place
for the first convention since the cOnsol-
idation of the Western Association of
Architects and theAmerlcan Institute of
Architects could have been selected than
the national capital. The paper also re-
ferred to the large amounts annually
appropriated by congress for public
buildings, and to the fact that
the treasury department at Washington
was responsible for their expenditure.
1t said that while the work of the super
vising architects Office of the treasury
is generally we'll done, 1--WE must hold
it preposterouS to assume that any one
person can do justice to the present re-
quirements of the Office. The present
arrangement is by no means an econom-
ical one, and it is natural to attribute
the perpetuation of 1t to political iuD-
berry, or an indifference towards matters

YAwP OF THE YANKEE CzAR,
Autocrat Reed Tries to Taffy In
teiiigent Hawkeyes.

BURLINGTON, To-, Oct 22.-Speaker
Reed arrived in this city from Peoria,
at noon to-day. Ex-senator Harlan in
troduced Mr.. Reed. After thanking
the people for the warm reception
accorded him, he asked where there
could be found higher average level
of intelligence outside of the United
States than was present before him. He
had seen thousands of just such audi
ences in America. Fifty years ago the
intelligence was not SO great. Contact
with each other in commercial and po-
litical channels had built up this present
unrivaled Intellectual commonwealth.
We have become intelligent enough to
recognize and admit the right of the
majority to rule. There is a great
wrong being done in this country to-
day. Eight millions of people, with
representatives, were deprived of their
rights and those rights given to the
Southern leaders. Twenty-six seats in
congress were occupied last term by
men who had no more right to them
than they had right to seats
in the British parliament. A great
cry was set up over the Lodge bill
depriving people of their rights. 1t did
deprive them of the right to steal ballot
boxes, disenfranchise negroes, and doc
tor returns. The nation had a right to
know about these methods in the South.
The Democrats are sensitive about
bayonets; can it D9 that recollection of
the past has anything to do with their
feelings OH this subject? After explain
ing the Lodge bill MIR. Reed returned to
the tariff bill, explaining the changes
and benefits it proposed and ridiculing
the Democratic cry of rising prices. He
closed with a tribute to Congressman

signs of The times and the character and tenn
per of the American people. In conversation
with Mckinley on the train today he told me
twas the intention of the present Repub-
Ecan congress 10 pass the force bill before its
expiration, no matter which party was sue
cessful iii the Coming elections. If they do
not carry the next election you can rest -
sured they will not pass the bill
In conclusion the governor said that Nc
Kinley, the apostle of the high protective
tariff and unjust taxation, who seeks the
vlnd1cation OF his course i'll the last congress-
snould go into some other state ard run
there in congressional district which con-
tains the interests which he has labored so
successfully TO serve. and not ask the sup
port of constituency which he has betrayed.
After the governor had finished his
speech, in view of the fact that the peo-
nle on the outskirts of the crowd had
be.n unable TO hear him, and that many
who were at their daily labor also de-
sired TO hear him, he consented to re-
main until tonight, when he addressed
l,5OO people, who taxed the utmost ca
paclty of the village opera house. The
governors remarks were mainly re-
view of the tariff question and the leg
islation and doings of congress. The
governor and party left for Massillon
at 9 O'Clock, where he speaks tomorrow.

The Irish National League Hard
Pressed for Funds.

LONDON, Oct. 2s.-Letters and tele-
grams from Dublin, published in the
London papers, represent the Irish
league as more closely pressed for
money than had been supposed. The
special collections taken in the churches
will not more than defray the ordinary
expenses of the league, which are now
being largely increased owing to the re-
cent and impending evictions. 1t is as
serted by Timothy Harrington and other
prominent ieaguers that the Increased
activity of the landlords at this juncture
is in pursuance of concerted plan to
embarrass the league at time when it
is believed to be straitened for funds
by throwing upon it for support a much
larger number of evicted tenants. The
number to be supported has certainly
greatly increased OF late, while the
funds, with the closest economy of adj
ministratlon, admittedly hardly met the
expenditure. Should this continue, it is
said, general election, which the gov
ernment might at any favorable moment
precipitate, would find the Home Rule
