Six Years in the National Capital
as a California Repre-
sentative.
THE EFFICIENCY OF CONGRESS.
Firm Faith in Legislative Management
Under the American Form
of Government.

Judge w. W. Morrow of the United
States District Court lectured before the
Mechanics Institute last evening at the Ii
brary building on Post street. His subject
was. ssSix Years With Statesmen" the
lecture including "reminiscences of Judge
Morrows experience as Congressman
from this State. Many splendid stereopti-
con illustrations of the National capital
were presented; the pictures OF all the
great public buildings and of some of the
reat celebrities who were in the House
and Senate while Congressman Morrow
was at Washi ngton.
The lecture was highly instructive an d
entertaining. Judge Morrow was to have
discussed more at length on the efficiency
of Congress as legislative body. but it
was necessary to follow the story OF the
views presented, and there was not suffi-
cient time to more than touch upon the
question that has caused so much debate.
People in the audience expressed the
hope that the lecturer would be urged to
deliver another lecture and speak only on
the theoretical question OF the efficiency
of the various legislative bodies in the
great nations of the world.
The lecture hall at the Institute build
ing was thronged last night and the seat.
The San Francisco call., 1896-03-01

ing capacity was not large enough for the
audience.
Tn history OF the location of the Ameri-
can capital was told, the circumstance be-
ing pointed out that Washington is one of
the few great capitals that are not also
trade centers. The only commerce that
Washington has is in bringing ice up the
river to cool the Senators lemonade IN
summer.
Washington is governed entirely by Con-
gress. 1t has no local governing bodies,
and the people don't vote. But there is
no better municipal government, and taxes
there are very low.
Judge Morrow spoke of the criticisms of
Congress, many writers having declared
that the Government cannot have efficient
legislation. 1t is held that each branch of
the Government being q check to the
other the system cannot long exist.
Comparing this Government with that
of England. Judge Morrow said that the
English Government may be able to
change front quicker. but here the power
is better distributed among the people.
There are times when the Governme Mt
ought to be able to act promptly. 1t took
five years to get the act passed relating to
car-couplings, the measure having been
indorsed by the people, recommended by
the President and not opposed by the rail-
road. The act adopted in 1898 will not go
into effect until 1898, making delay OF
ten years.
But, said the speaker, there are classes
of legislation that can be acted ON very
quickly. Anything that is regarded as
necessary to maintain the dignity of the
nation meets with no delay. The measure
relating to the freedom OF Cuba is an
illustration.
II think, altogether" said Judge Nor
row, that our form OF government is as
efficient and thorough as any other form,
and I would be glad to defend my belief
at greater length than time will here
permit"
The lecture was concluded with tribute
to the honesty, ability and patriotism OF
the great majority of the Congressman
and glowing picture of what may be ex-
pected from the remarkable development
that is now going on.

The idea for q memorial monument 10 Robert
Louis Stevenson grew out of q genuine enthu-
siasm for the man and the artist, and It's justi-
fcstion lies in the fact of his association with
our town. That association was brief but in
innate; he acknowledged and recorded our
picturesqueness and the dramat tic interest OF
our cosmopolitan life for the painter and the
writer, and to distinguish US so hes marked
our place somewhat apart from the common
place In this world.

the long journey here, that he might gain the
conrsdeship that brought him new strength
and courage FOR the remainder of his life.
He has given US share in his life and works,

wise an effort 10 establish q local claim on his
fame.

him. 1t has.been widely noticed and approved

Iarly. You remember Mark Twain's project
for a monument TO Adam. He urged 1t, l
think, with the ples that Adam stood for
humanity-the Old Adam in US all. would
make the plea that Stevenson (Inore than any
man practicing al art for the delight of it,

letter reads:
SACRAMENTO, Cal, Feb. 27, 1896.
The end Of the open season has by no means
dampened the ardor Of the deciples OF sport IN
this vicinity and many are still going afleld IN
search or the erratic flying snipe, the ROBIN
and the wild goose. Snipe-shooting has been
especially good in this locality during the past
month and number OF large bags have been
made by local shots. Wild geese are making
their appearance in the vicinity OF Swingle's
station IN vast numbers and daily excursions
are in order for q tramp through the tuie

there is politics behind the whole matter,
and that the Supervisors will object to any

more about that.
81 am in correspondence with Bertram
Grosvenor Goodlae, an eminent Boston
architect, who is an old chum OF mine,
and who was my fellow-student ten years
ago. He will contribute his ideas, and
there are several OF us here who are study
ing oct the monument plans. We have
about twenty designs now. If the Super
visors had accepsed the rough design that
was submitted to them from Mr.. Porter's
drawing, changes would have been made,
anyway, as we were not at all satisfied
with it.
eIn that design the plain marble shaft
represents the quiet. simple life of Steven
son and the ship represents his love OF
stories of adventure and the sea"
Douglas Tilden has suggested two col
umns, with an Italian arch OF wrought
iron on top, the whole forming well.
The proposed height OF the columns is
about twelve feet.
So much interest has been shown by
Boston people in regard to the memorial
that Mr.. Polk wants to send the monu-
ment to the Eastern city if it cannot be
placed in the desired location. Ports
mouth Square is chosen as the site be-
cause Stevenson lived for time in that
locality, at Montgomery avenue, and be-
cause he studied some OF his characters
there.
Bruce Porter declares that the San Fran
cisco news usually sent to the outside
world is of q sensational character and
that this is the first time that the name OF
the City has appeared in the Eastern and
English papers as identified with an art
work of this kind. His arguments are pre-
sented in the following paper read before
the Century Club:

SAVED BY SKILL.
remarkable Cure of an Apparently
hopeless Case by DIR. Morse at
the German Hospital.

The rescue of human being from the
clutches of death is one of those noble acts
which call forth praise from the most
stolcal OF men. Even the fire laddies,
enured as they are to peril and hardship,
know how to appreciate the care and skill
which can save fellow-man from falling
victim to the grim destroyer. On the
18th OF last November Michael Sheehan,
fireman, received what were thought to be
fatal lnlnrles at fire on Market street,
near Sixteenth. He had fallen upon a
post which penetrated through his back to
depth of five inches. The wound was a
frightful one and 1t was believed that the
mans spine was broken, or at all events
so severely injured that death must soon
terminate his excruciating torments.
AT O'Clock in the morning, soon after
the accident, Sheehan was taken TO the
German Hospital and placed in the hands
OF DR.. Morse, who, it was hoped, might
mitigate in some degree the sufferings of
the poor fellows last hours. The doctor
makes no pretensions to miraculous
powers, but at the same time his treat
ment of Sheehans frightful injuries
achieved results which have astonlshed
and delighted the young mans host of
friends In few days Sheehan, who is
native San franciscan and only 25 years
OF age, will leave the hospital and return
to the side of his widowed mother, who
had in sadness and bitterness of heart re-
signed herself to the loss OF her son. The
Fire Department has prepared the follow
ing set OF resolutions, which will be elab-
orately engrossed ana illuminated and

the other.
The artists say that the Supervisors
don't know anything about art; the su-
peryisors say the same thing about the
artists.

Much attention has been given to the
movement in the Eastern States and Eng
land, the London Telegraph urging IN
half-column editorial that contributions
should be sent from London to san Fran
cisco.
There has been no proposition to erect q
Stevenson monument anywhere else m
the country, and the only other one pro-
jected is to be at Samoa.
The monument offered to San Fran
cisco is to be about twenty tees nlgn
and the probable cost is estimated at
SI500. About twenty designs nave been
prepared, and the work OF the artists has
been done without charge.
When plan was decided upon the de-
sign was submitted to the Supervisors and
rejected. Consequently the projectors
are indignant, and they say that If the de-
