ARCHITECT O'ROrRKE,s REMoraI.
The New Jersey Democratic Delegation.
WIN Ask that lie he Restored.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 20. - Representative
Fielder Of New Jersey is very indignant at the
removal Of Supervising Architect O'Rourke.
The entire Democratic delegation OF New Jer-
sey will protest against Secretary Carlisle's ac-
ton, and in a few days petition, almost as long
as that which Frank Lswlor presented in behalf
OF his appointment as Postmaster In Chicago,
will he filed with Mr.. Carlisle asking that Super
vising Architect O'Rourke be restored Mr..
Fielder says that New Jersey Democrats and
Republicans alike will sign this petition, upon
the theory that Mr.. O'ROurke has been badly
mistreated.
Il do not believe II is good policy ON the mart
of the Administration TO remove honest Demo-
Gratis while dishonest Republicans are kept in

only good Democrat, but he is a good archi-
tect, and II was an outrage to remove him."
II may be said that Mr.. O'Rourke shares the
opinion OF Mr.. Fielder AS TO his ability As an
architect. Mr.. ORourke declares that there
have been only three real architects In the office
since II was created. One of them was Mr.
Potter, who served many years ago: another
was Mr., W indrim, who served during the early
part or the Harrison Administration, and Tie
third OneiwhO Mr.. O'ROurke cOntidentialIy ad-

lated mat III the recent estimates for IA new pub
