The Municipal Building.

The commission in charge of the new
municipal building has doubtless acted with
wisdom in deciding not to extend the struc-
tUre across Z street. The small triangular
reservation in front of the municipal build
ing site will serve as park approach, al
though the park commission, it appears,
does not favor it's inclusion in the grounds
of the structure.
The proceedings for the procurement of a
suitable plan thus far justify the belief that
not only will a high grade of architectural
talent be commanded, but that the result
will be acceptable to the artistic tastes OF
the community. The fund allowed by Con-
gress, although not very large, sufTices to
secure city half of commanding proper
lions and fine material 1t need not be
monumental in size to become marked as
one of the city's notable structures, nor
need 1t be covered with lavish decorations
to give 1t character. 1t should be distinc-
tive in the sense of departing from the
crudely conventional and yet conformable
to the classic scheme of public buildings
which the park commission contemplated
when it drew up its grand project of EN-.
placements

The Eriars' Lands.

The interview with the Rev. Patrick j.
Hart which appeared in yesterdays Star is
an interesting and important contribution
to the subject of the Spanish friars and
their landed holdings in the Philippines
The opinions expressed are not founded
upon hearsay, but rest upon personal in
yestigation Of the problem which just now
Is engaging a liberal measure of public at
tention. Father Hart is a priest of the Ro-
man Catholic communion. an American clti-
zen. and chaplain in the army. While on
duty in the Philippines he had opportunity
To inform himself as TO the religion and the
conditions of the people, and he embraced
it we may believe. in a spirit of truth
seeking. Faithful to his church and at the
same time to his country, he saw with the
eyes of man who desired the good of
both; and he now gives us in clear and dis
passionate terms the results of his observa-
tons
We get in this interview a better expla-
nation than from any previous source of the
revolt of the Filipinos against the friars as
landlords. 1t was the logical and inevi-
table result of the Improvement of the peo-
pie. As they advanced in the scale of intel
lgence and capacity they quickened to q
sense of self-assertion and independence.
They grew tired Of the exactions of those
for whom they were laboring and demanded
the right to labor for themselves. They
felt themselves entitled 10 control by legiti-
mate means the lands to which their work
was adding so materially in value.
The landlord friars were deaf to these ap-
peals. They were indisposed to surrender
business advantages of so profitable char
acter- They reckoned too much with the
spirit of gain. and too little with the spirit
of their tenants. whose rising ambition and
anger should have been a warning. At last
the storm broke, and then the landlords,
with the burdens OF their Spanish civil con-
nections added TO their other embarrass-
nlents, were either murdered. or imprisoned,
or driven into Manila.
This government inherited this very seri-
GUS difficulty. and is trying to deal with it
in a spirit OF fairness To all the parties in
interest The Filipino solution would have

This Commends itself to the pope, and as
We see to many American Catholics. Arch

tions on the subject are Teopened at Ma

Eight-Doliar Coal.

Hard coal has now reached the rate of IS
q ton in New York city with every prospect
OF further rise. There is no sign that
the strikers are weakening in their fight
against the operators. They have now been
idle for eleven weeks and have gained the
financial aid of the soft coal miners. They
are in a position 70 hold out for as many
weeks more. or longer if need be- although
rhe funds available will give them only a
bare living. and they must live most eco
nomically at that Many of them are drift
ing out of the hard coal regions and finding
employment on the farms and at other lines
of labor, but the majority are remaining in
the coal towns awaiting the signal to re-
turn to work from the operators in case
the unions demands are granted or from
the walking delegates should the strike be
declared a failure. And so the coal price
continues to creep up the time for the
fan purchases approaches. The month of
August is usually busy one with the
wholesalers. and they begin to retail in
quantities in September. Should coal go 10
s. a ton here it is doubtful whether the
usual number of hOusehoIders will pIir-
chase their full winter supply. They will
be more likely TO buy a provisional supply
and hope for later break in the strike
and the gradual restoration of normal
prices For these troubles cannot last for
ever If after four months of profitless
hghtIng the union sees that it cannot win
II is likely to surrender. On the other hand
II Is 10 certain extent profitable for the
Operators to continue the shut down that

Bereft.

Times are not what they used to be;
We miss those old and faithful friends
The serpent terror of the sea
No more his billowy length extends;
No more the kissing bug so bold
Salutes, unintroduced the fair
Our summer joys have all grown cold
And fancy fees, We know not where.
Exhausted are those themes SO rich
Which once employed our abiest pens.
No more We hear of ha:Istones which
In size out-do the eggs of hens;
No more we laud the honest dame
Who with quadruplets has been blest;
No dazzled frog steps into fame
Released from some big tree out west.
And though we love the simple truth.
Our mighty nation must bewail
That fond companion of it's youth,
The journalistic fairy tale
And though our power may unfold
Until it touches every cline.
Well miss those gentle yarns of old
Which soothed us so in summer time

The discovery that there are no plans of
the fallen Campanile on file in Venice may
check the enterprise now under way for
the restoration of that historic pile on d

traOTdinary that the details of so noted

on paper. especially in view of the fact
that II had been frequently reported as
