The executive b6ard Of the American
Baptist Home Mission Society, has sent a
letter to President Mckinley. in which it
Is stated that II is the desire on behalf of
four million Baptists. to enter their most
earnest exhort3tiorf that he will have faith
in the idea, which in this country, has
enabled the state to have the benefit of an
educational system, and at the same time
mas made 1t possible for the different
churches to profit by 1t equally without
friction or contention.
ThiS statement Is made at this time, the
letter further states, because the great ad-
ment in connection with Porto Rico, Ha-
wall and the Philippine Islands have
brought to our door the duty OF deciding
upon some system of public education py
which the peoples of those islands may be
fitted for such civil responsibilities as are
required of them by the genius of our form

From the Papermaker


1t is stated that experiments with alumi-
mum as substitute for paper are now un-
der way in France. 1t is we'll known that
the paper used today in the manufacture of
books is not durable. 1t Is now possible to
roll aluminium into sheets four-thousandths
Of an inch in thickness, in which form 1t
weighs less than paper. BY use of suitable
machinery these sheets can be made even
thinner, and can be used for book and writ

Public Buildings Needed.

The experts might also take into consid-
Grafton the grouping and distribution OF
a number of government buildings which
have long been urgently required. Indeed,
every one of the great executive depart
ments has had to rent buildings. and ought
to be provided with new ones. The rentals
Maid by the government in the District of
Columbia are more than the interest on
sum sufficient to construct all the new
buildings that are needed by the govern
ment.
II is evident that the improvements
which might be called local to the District
of Columbia, including, besides those which
have been enumerated, the completion of
the harbor work on the Potomac river and
the proper treatment of the Eastern
branch, or Anacostia river, on which the
United States navy yard is situated, can
not be made promptly and properly with
the annual revenues OF the DISTRICT OF Co
