The folly of building a house IN
Washington exactly like house in
Boston is too obvious to need point
ing out. In a city where evenings
indoors are insupportable every inch
of roof should be utilized, and where
space permits there should be com
modious balconies in front or rear OF
the upper stories Of dwellings. This
is not a difficult architectural prob
lem. and It's slillful solution would
add a characteristic feature TO the
homes of the city.

Congressman O'Neil, Of Massaehus-
etts. chairman Of the sub committee on
pensions, in speaking of the annual APP
priaiion bill in whi1h his committee is
now al work, s,ys that the Total aPpro-
prisliun FIR pen,ions foi the current is
c,l year was Si66. 5Sl $50. and for the
first time in many years it is probable
that no deficiency appropriation will be
needed. Il is even possible that a small
surplus may be turned into the treasury.
For tie fiscal year 1895 Commissioner
Lochren estimates that about Sl62 dUO,-
OOO will b. needed. or almost 1900,
400 less than fir the present year. 1t
Is remarkable fact that this reduction
comes not from cutting OF any one from
TIC pension rolls. but because for the first
time the bureau dispcses Of pension
claims faster than they come in. This
il sho sn BY the fact that on October II,
1872 there were pending 7ss. C6l claims
while on July :, 1893, not quite nine
months la'er, the number had been re-
dueed to III 900 From these figures
it appears that the fling Of new cases
will not again exceed the number Of
cases acted upon By the bureau, and 1t is
also apparent ,ba' the maximum number
Of pensions to be granted will be reach
ed before the end Of the fiscal year 1895,
If. indeed. it is not reached before next
July. Ftom that time on the large
SUNS of money disbursed on first pay
ments will no longer swell the appropri-
alton bill, and once these claims arc ad-
judicsted the pension appropriations will
rapidly decrease, owing to the deaths Of
the pensioners. who are now getting far
aloug in years. 10 the coming year
more than 10000 600 will be needed
ior first payments, aud it is fair to as
sumo that afte- 1895 the annual aprro-
priaiion will be diminished BY at least
that sum.

Senator German has been In public life
for many years. He gave utterance Thurs
day to a few remarks which should be Of
value to servants Of the republic. In the
course Of debate he said: II have great re-
spect for the heads of departments but
have seen a great many heads of depart
ments come and go; I have seen a great
many men who have come into power, sud
denly raised to high station, who want to
introduce all sorts of reforms. which amount
to nothing and end in no good. 1 believe it
would be safer, in the interests of the gov
eminent, in the interest of the people end
in the interest of the administration of
these departments, If some of them would
move little more slowly than they have
been moving, and learn little better the
duties, and ascertain the troubles and what
needs to be corrected in the departments
before expressing such opinions as have
been expressed" Senator German, like ell
other sensible people. believes in business
methods. but there is wisdom in the deliber-
alton he advocates.

Congress Is evidently under an impress
sion that 1t has something to DO with the
government OF this country and that its re-
quest for certain Information now in the
keeping OF another branch of the triune
governing power is not an unreasonable one.
These things are evidenced by the manifest
impatience OF many prominent members of
the national legislature. who think they see
In the aggravatins slowness OF the Presi-
dent In furnishing the Senate and House
with Information called for as to the deal
ings OF the administration with Hawaii an
assumption OF superiority and an appear
ance OF disdatn totally out of harmony with
the American idea as to such matters.
neither they, nor great many people who
are far from being prominent, but whose
votes are worthy of consideration, can I'M
derstand why there should be SO much of
mystery at this end OF the Hawaiian situa-
ton. The few who pose as staunch friends
OF the administration In this matter declare
loudly that the Presidents Instructions to
Minister Willis are harmless and in no way
infringe upon the constitutional rights of
Congress; II that Is so, why then should
the President and his Secretary of State
procrastinate? II the policy of the admin
istration is something to be proud of-and
II Is not expected that the executive power
would plan procedure likely to prove dis
graceful-why do the officials interested
give such continuously good limitations of
conspirators?

1t would be unjust to impute to the Amer
lean Federation Of Labor ignorance as to
the effect upon the general public of the
Federation's resolutions encouraging an
archy, and yet it can hardly be believed
that a great and representative gathering
like that now in session in Chicago has so
little respect for the law Of the land as its
declarations indicate that it has. The NOV
ing cause of this latest ebullition was Gov
John Pernicious Altgeld of illinois, and it
was In praise Of his abuse of the pardoning
prerogative that the Federation put itself
on record. The resolutions have 1t that the
conviction of Fielden, Schwab and Neebe
was the result Of class prejudice and per-
secution at a time when the public mind
was infamed with passion" That scrap of
ground Is untenable. The country knows
that the men executed and the men i'm
prisoned for completely in the Haymarket
massacre were rabid anarchists, fairly
tried and justly sentenced. 1t cannot be
claimed that the Federation does not SYM
pathize with anarchy; 1t has thrown its
arms around men who were red-handed
conspirators against law and order; 1t
weeps tears of gratitude all over Altgeld; 1t
cannot evade the consequences.
