StrGction and repair department as q
machine and iron plate shop. The fire
quickly extended along the shafting
and oily tinIbers into building Ne. 46,
occupied as q futtoek mill, and the
workmen were obliged to jump through
the@ windows to escape. A general
alarm was rung in, and four steamers
belonging TO the navy yard department
were quickly on hand. Despite the
efforts of the firemen and marine
guard, the fire extended into
the machine shop, and help was
then called for from this city. The
steamer Kearsarge and hose company
were Immediately sent over, and with
these reinforcements the fire was con
fined entirely to the two buildings.
The two buildings were built in 1915 10,
and constructed IN "stelt" fashion,

foundation. and the rest of the building

HOW ABOUT 1T?

The GLOBE is not afraid to take po-
Sition, nor to defend it when taken. We
say this in reply to an editorial in the
Sunday issue of the Minneapolis Trib-
une commenting upon our review of
Senator INGALLS, speech. The Trib-
une pays us the compliment of saying
that we discussed the speech with
much candor and with degree of COM
mendation that rises above the tone
of mere partiSanship." That is the
GLOBES style of discussing all public
questions. But to return to the matter
III hand; the Tribune says; ''But the
GLOBE apparently undertakes to apollo
gize for the treatment the Southern ne
groeS receive as an inevitable conse-
quence of the great difference in the
characteristics of the two races. Does
our esteemed contemporary think moth
ing ought to be done?" Our Minneapo-
lis contemporary mistook our meaning
If 1t supposed we were apologizing for
anything. We simply made a state
ment of facts, and left to our readers
the right to draw their own conclusions.
AS to what shall be done or ought to be
pending to the other fellows, and not at
tempting to answer ourselves. Or
rather, to adopt the Yankee practice of
answering one question by propound-
ing another one, we will ask Of
our Minneapolis contemporary what
can be done. The negro is a full
fiedged citizen. and cannot be depolt ted
against his will; no more than any other
class of citizens can be forced to leave
the country against their will. Neither
can there be a law enacted to compel
him to move out of the Southern state s
into the Northern states. Every Amer
lean citizen has the constitutional right
to select his own place of residence. If
the colored citizen, however, prefers to
live in Southern community, with the
knowledge that his vote will be sup
pressed, it his is constitutional right to do
so just as much as the Northern white
laborer has the right to live in Rhode
Island, with the full knowledge that he
must vote according to the dictates of
the factory boss or not vote at all. Nor
in the matter OF apportionment has con-
greSS any power except to follow strictly
in the line of the constitution, and appor-
ton representation according to popu-
lation. Again we ask the Tribune,
What is to be done about it? Our sug-
gestion would be that we try the exper-
iment OF home rule without federal in
reference for awhile, and see how the
race problem will shape itself.

BUILDERS AND CONTRACTORS

The National Builders and Contract
ors' association, which convened in this
city yesterday, is composed of, perhaps,
as solid body of citizens as any bust
ness association in this country. They
are principally men of means, and all
of them men Of thrift and energy. They
are IN the true sense the city builders
of America, the men who lay deep the
foundations and build high the masses
OF masonry which constitute the great
bulk of wealth in all cities. They are
the right arm of capital and the left arm
of enterprise, and without them there
would be no municipal growth. On be-
half of the people of this city the GLOBE
extends these gentlemen cordial well
come to st. Paul. May their session be
both pleasant and profitable, and during
their sojourn in our midst we hope they
will find the time to see for themselves
what great things have been accom-
plished by our local city builders.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 27.-Col.

rived here this morning. Col. Graves
will have hearing on Wednesday
before the senate committee on rivers

the completion of the work on the 500
canal and Hay lake channel. The
waterways convention, held at Su-

a committee to represent the trade OF
the Northwest and urge an appropria-
ton in its interests. He will urge the
passage of a bill for this work independ-
ent of the regular river and harbor bill,
on the ground that the latter will be so
large that this additional appropriation
would make it almost certain of defeat,
or at least of such ruthless cutting as to
make it useless.
