REPORTING PROGRESS.

Our pecial correspondent at Washing
ton reported yesterday another step made
in progress toward the beginning OF work
on the new Federal building in this City.
He announces that c. l.. Spalding, Assist
ant Secretary OF the Treasury, has assured
Mr.. Loud that he would Immediately take
steps to prepare the specifications upon
which bids for the building are to be based
and that bids would be advertised for as
soon as possible. He added that in his
opinion within three weeks advertise
ments would be published for bids for the
work OF grading and excavating.
It ill be seen that progress toward the
attainment of the much esired work on
the building is going steadily ahead and
that already much has been accom- plished.
Mr.. Loud, taking advantage Of the fact
that the House OF Representatives is not
actively engaged in public business, is de-
voting a considerable portion of his time
pressing the work, and has been suffi-
GENTLY successful to obtain prompt con-
sideration OF the subject on the part OF the
treasury officials. He can be relied upon
to continue urging the subject at Wash
ington, and the outlook is therefore dis
tinctly encouraging.
The agitation started in this City by
THE CALL and so cordially and vigorously
supported by our various commercial and
industrial bodies has begun to bear good
fruit. The success attained should be re-
garded, however, as an argument for con-
tinued work here, and not as reason for
abandoning it. ''There is many a slip
'twi1t the cup and the lip" in politics as
we'll as in other affairs of life, and it will
not do for US at this time, under a false
sense Of security, to relax either our vigil
ance or our energies.
Congressman Loud should be cordially
supported from this City, and other mem
bers OF the California delegation in Con-
gress should be urged to unite their efforts
with his in Fastening the work. The con.
struction OF the Federal building should
be begun early this summer, and we m nst
not show any weakening in our demand
to that effect.

PATRIOTIC SALINAS.

1t has fallen this year to Salinas to show
to the veterans of the Grand Army in
their annual encampment the continued
interest which the people take in all that
concerns that organization, and the loyal
love with which the younger generation
regard the veterans To whom we owe the
preservation of the Union and the pres
ent grandeur and prosperity of the Re-
public. This duty the people of Salinas,
according 10 all reports, have well per-
formed. They have made their city ra-
didnt with banners, and their homes have
been opened with cordial hospitality to
the veterans and to all their friends.
1t is altogether right and fitting that
the annual gathering of the veterans OF
the Grand Army should be made an occa-
sion for a public festival in the commu-
nlty where the encampment is held
Such displays have an effect in the pat
riotic education of the young. and serve,
moreover, 10 afford opportunities TO the
general public for giving renewed evidence
OF their appreciation Of the services of the
soldiers of the Union. These testimonials 5
OF esteem cannot be rendered too often,
and 1t Is always gratifying when they can
be shown not only to the memory of the
Grand Army as q mass, but to the lndivid-
uals who compose it, so that each of the old
veterans may feel some personal share in
the honor so Loyalty given.
Wherever in California these encamp.
ments have been held, they have been
worthily prepared for and celebrated by
the people. Salinas is now showing
through her hospitality and through her
festal arrangements the sen timent which
all the Californiaus feel. She is giving
evidence that the old soldiers are more
than welcome in every part OF California
Their coming is hailed, not merely as that
OF friendly visitors, but as an honor of
which community may be Justly proud.
In its way the Salinas celebra tion is not
less deserving OF praise and credit than
that brilliant fiesta which now illumines
Los Angeles, and the people who have pre-
pared this hospitab'e and patriotic recep-
tion for the old veterans deserve to rea D
from it no little reward.

WILLIAM S. HOLMAN.

By the death OF William Steele Holman
the country loses another OF those states
men whose public services began before
the outbreak Of our Civil War. 1t is a
fast-vanishing generation. There remain
in Congress but three men-Senator Nor
rill, Senator Harris and the venerable
Galusha Grow in the House e-who took
part in the struggles of politics at the
time when Holman began his career.
Secretary Sherman adds fourth to the
list of such veterans now in office, and
these are all that survive in official life OF
the men who directed our politics in the
days when slavery was the dominant
issue before the country and economic
topics were regarded as matters of minor
moment.
Holman entered public life as soon as
he attained manhood, having been elected
Probate Judge when but 81 years old.
After having served his State in various
capacities he was elected to Congress as a
Democrat in 1856. Since that time he has
been renominated by the Democrats of
his district for each succeeding Congress.
Four times he was defeated, but after
each defeat was reelected, and now closes
his life by dying in office.
The position in Congressional life held
by Mr.. Holman was one in which he had
no rival He made it his duty to care
fully investigate every bill presented, and
paid particular attention to appropriation
bills. He watched every move made on
the floor OF the House, and whenever he
thought wrong was being done or undue
haste exercised he would promptly inter
pose the objection that would prevent
the passage of the bill by unanimous con-
sent. 1t was from this habit, not always
we'll CT discreetly exercised, he gained
his well-known title of 1.-The great OBJ
iector," and also the repute of being the
watchdog of the treasury"
While Holman was not in any sense a
great statesman, nor even an inspir ing
party leader, his firm and long continued
hold upon the esteem of his constituents
proves him to have been no ordinary man.
No one not possessed of sterling qualities
of high order could have held his posi-
ton so long in such political storm
center as Indiana, nor could a person of
common merit have so repeatedly recov-
cred from defeat and achieved victories
after disaster. We have, therefore, lost
from our politics strong as well as an
honest and nota BILE man, and it will prob
ably be long before Indiana can fill his
place in Congress with an equally capable
successor.
