THE ADMINISTRATION BUILDING.

Building itself This building differing from those
with which it is associated, in that it is more
spectacular in effect than they are, in that it has
a more aspiring sky line, and in the derivation FL
some of it's details, nevertheless sets the key for
the entire scheme of the court. 1t is a formal
composition which aims at unity, balances each
motive which is employed to the right OF the
centre by repetition of that motive on
the left, and while combining the freedom Of the
Renaissance in the dome and in the sculp-
tured accents with the simplicity Of the Grecian
orders in the pavilions and in the gallery above
them. is kept, on the WHOLE restrained and
more conventional than personal. 1t is de-
sign OF that symmetrical and monumental char
acter which is the fruit Of obedience to estao-
lished rule, to rigid laws of proportion. to good
taste, to a sense of the dignity necessary in Of

buildings originality. The scale OF the pile IS
noble and tie grouping of it's parts is effective

the situation and purpose Of the building The
staff with which the building is sheathed-a sub

when all deductions are made 1T is still one OF
the chief virtues of the Fair buildings that they
elothe an inspiration becOmngly and have not
merely picturesqueness, hut grandeur, not merely
the vivacity Of a gala time, but the seriousness
which tells of the normal attitude of a great
nation.
The Fair lies north and south along the shore OF
Lake Michigan within space smaller in width
than 1t Is in length. Those features of it with
which these remarks are concerned may most con-
veniently be divided into three parts. The first

THE McCREARY SUBSTITUTE.

A correspondent wants to know how the
McCreary substitute for the Geary act may
be enacted without vote on the act as it
exists. BE says that the Geary act is a
piece of legislation accomplished, and that
it cannot be repealed under pretense of
extending the time during which the Chi
nese may register. The point is not well
taken. The Geary act is in state of sus-
pended animation. 1t is an act and yet it
is not an act. 1t may be repealed by the
enactment of smother bill, not to repeal
the whole Geary act, bat to repeal such
provisions as are in conflict with the new
act. The photograph feature of the Geary
act will be repealed by leaving to the
Treasury Department the power to pre-
scribe the means of Identification. The de-
portation clause will be repealed by giving
the Chinese six months more in which to
register. From the time the McCreary bill
receives the Presidents signature no Chi
nese not in the hands Of the courts, can be
deported until the six months have ex-
pired. The clause which deprives the Nc
Creary act of real value is that which de-
fines a Chinese laborer as one who works
for hire. Chinese will be admitted on evil
dence that they are interested in some in-
6ustry and propose to work for themselves.
This would not prevent them at subse-
anent day from appearing in fruit orchards
doing the wark that white men might do
for hire. The McCreary bill cannot be

A CITY SAVED FROM THREAT
ENED DESTRUCTION.

The foreign men-nf-war in the harbor
of Rio have taken joint action. with the
exception Of Germany, in putting stop TO
any further bombardment OF the beIea-
guered city. This is merciful course, to
be commended as having a tendency to
arrest war until passions cool and a peace
full solution be practicable. The excuse
for interfering Is legitimate. There are
many American, British, Italian and other
foreign subjects in Rio. and they are pre-
sumably not partisans in the conflict pro-
ceeding. Their interests are not consid-
cred by either Peixoto or De Mello. Ger
many has held aloof because she does not
wish to be mixed up in domestic strife.
What the effect will be on De Mello Is
uncertain. He may go elsewhere and
blaze away the remainder of his powder.
He is hardly in a position TO carry on the
war ashore. He was formidable while he
held great city at his mercy, but now,
perhaps, there is little cause to fear him.
The world must feel relief as the danger
of destroying city is avoided.

SPAIN IN AFRICA ONCE MORE

The reader Is carried back thousand
years by the news Of fighting between
Spaniard and Moor in Northern Africa.
For seven centuries the two races con-
tended for the ownership of the barren
strip which divides the waters of the
Mediter ianean from the mountains of
Atlas. Every generation had its history
of feats of valor. prodigles of skill, ex-
plosions of cruelty. And now history re-
peats itself in an attack by the Moors on
the Spanish penal settlement of Melil!a.
1t was fron that spot. or from a point
not far distant, that Tarik set out on the
expedition which ended in the Moorish
conquest of Spain. And it was to take a
fort not remote from Melilla that Cardinal
Aimenes, mounted on warhorse, with
his cardinals robes floating in the wind,
urged the pious warriors of Spain to the
fray. The whole country is redolent of
romance. Here the Gothic father received
the news Of the dishonor of his daughter
Chlorlnda and secretly plotted the over
throw of the Gothic dynasty in revenge.
Hence the fighting Berbers started to win
that terrible battle of Xeres where the
pride OF Spain went down in gloom, and
Christianity bacame secret faith in the
best valleys of the peninsula for nearly
eight hundred years. Ii the Spaniards
who are now besieged at Melilla are
familiar with the history of their country
it must nerve them for the struggle to
think that they stand on battIements on
which their ancestors made themselves
heroes of poetry and legend.
The present outbreak of the natives is
merely one of the steps n the disintegra-
tion of the empire of Morocco. For many
years the authority of the Emperor has
been rather nominal than real. Outside
of FeZ the Sultan cannot control the de-
scendants of the Berbers. They carry on
their tribal conflicts as they did in the DAYS
when their spiritual head was the Caliph
of Bagdad. There is no law outside of the
range of the cannon of the capital or those
OF the foreign fleets at Tangeir. In the
east the French at Oran have signified to
the sovereign Of Morocco that they. for
their part, will stand no nonsense; raids by
Arabs upon settlements under French pro-
lection are inexorably punished by French
troops. How utterly incapable the Sultan
is to maintain order in his dominions may
be inferred from the history of the EN- bassy
of Sir Euan Smith to Fee in May of last
year. That diplomatic demonstration
would have been followed by the landing
Of an English force il Lord Salisbury had
not feared to embroii England with France
on the one side and Spain on the other.
The French have always cherished a
purpose to extend their Algerian possess
sions to tho straits and to make of Tan
gier second Algiers. But they have not
been willing to provoke a war with Spain
in order to accomplish their object. Be-
tween Ceuta and Oran the Spaniards have
occupied points on the coast from time i'm

able trade has been carried on with the

THREE MILES SQUARE.

The Southern Pacific Company is, under
the title of the Oakland Waterfront Com
pany, putting kind of water fence around
about three miles square of tidelaDds
which lie in front of the city of Oakland.
The piles are being driven so close TO-
gether as to keep out vessels of any size
above q rowboat. The construction of
law upon which the Southern Pacific is
proceeding is not known. The claim the
company is setting up must cume in con-
f1iet with the Chicago waterfront de-
cisioD, which in effect declared inaienable
the right of the people to tideland which
may be necessary to afford free transporta-
tion between land and the sea. Water
front has an incalculable value for this
purpose. If private company or a pri-
vate individual may be permitted to ac-
quire rights which interfere with this free
TRANSFORMATION it thereby establishes a
degree of ownership in any acre of land
the products of which find their way to
market by way OF the sea. Let US sup
pose the existence of two agricultural
counties. each with seaports within its
limit. In one corrupt City Council gives
a corporation some kind of a title to the
approaches to this sea which entities it to
charge toll on all merchandise going to or
from the interior. The other county
keeps It's sea approaches clear of intruders
and provides means by which merchan-
disc may he passed either way at cost.
Which of these two counties Will prosper?
Which will attract settlers on its land aud
manufacturers to provide for the wants of
the people? Which will seem to be ia
vored by nature over the other? These
questions answer themselves. There
could be no comparison between the two
counties. Whether Oakland proposes TO
represent the county accursed by cor
poration that cares only for its own ag-
grandizemeDt will be determined by Its
action in this emergency. In the history
of this State there has never arisen a case
requiring higher exercise of the CON-
bined force of wisdom and energy. The

to do it are the inspirations to be sought

ing for a time when SPAN may be in

All Northwestern Africa Is in state OF
transition. Engand's occupation of Glib
raltar and Malta is an iDcongruity which
will come to an end whenever the English
taxpayers apply the pruning-knife to the
budget with vigor. The enormous sums
which France is spending to reconstruct
Carthage are also likely to be saved when
ever the republic gets an economical ad-
ministration. In the meantime Spain,
