Reckless Chaneurs.
/, the New York Tribune


There can be no doubt that automobilinp.
In it's illegal and denant forms, has got
upon the nerves OF the public. There was
a time when bicycling was similarly re-
garced. Wheelmen-some of them-habit-
ually and defiantly1 violated the law, to the
terror, peril and actual injury Of the law
abiding part Of the community 1t was no
wonder that people came to regard the
"scorching" wheeiman as a public enemy
to be set upon WITH violence whenever and
wherever found. That state of mind has
passed away, with the passing or reforma-
ton Of its provoking cause. But now GER
tain automobile drivers are afousing 1t
again. directed toward themselves. =

The New Printery.

The new government printing office build
ing fronts 40S feet on G street and IT'S feet
and inches on North Capitol street 1t
was designed by Mr.. James G. Hill of this
city and was built by Captain John S. Sew
ell. corps of engineers of the army. The
building is of red brick, with stone trim
mings. The park commission has criticised
It's height of seven stories as too great for
a public building. and it stands out promi-
nently from many parts of the city. The
commission would have limited it to four
stories. and in accordance with its general
plan for all government buildings, would
have built it of white marble
The propriaty of constructing a printing
office of white marble in the classic stvle
mas, on the other hand been criticised on the
ground that architecture should seek to ex-
press the use to which a building is put
and that for great mechanical workshop
ike the government printing Office red
brlck, with Its suggestion Of the factory, is
more appropriate than white marble
Now that red brick and seven stories
nave become features Of the building, 1t is
believed that there will be no opposition to
the replacing of the old building with a
modern structure to conform architectural
ly to the work that has been done
The interior is lined with light-colored
glazed brick, which adds to the light effect
to such an extent that while the building
Is an extremely wide one it is not believed
any artificial light will be necessary except
on cloudy days.

Application Disapproved,

The Commissioners have disapproved ar
application for the repair or reconstruction
of the awning frame at 1909 32d street. The
awning frame reached to the curb and was
declared to be source of danger by the
building department on account of the mar
rowness Of the roadway at this point, and
the fact that the overhang of the passing
street cars often forces vehicles right up to
the curb line.

A GREAT WORKSHOP
Exterior of Government Print
ing Office Completed.
FINISHING INTERIOR
UNCERTAINTY ABOUT WHEN
POSSESSION WILL BE TAKEN.
Necessity for Rebuilding the Old
Structure-Vast Increase of Facili-
ties That Will Be Afforded.

The new government printing office build
ing Is now shorn of Its scaffoldng, and
hundreds of men are at work completing
the interior Of the structure, which will be
turned over to the public printer In De-
cember. 1t has not yet been determined
whether the force Of the printing office will
be divided between the new and the old
building instead Of being confined to the
cramped quarters of the firetrap it has so
long occupied. When the building is COM
pleted next December Congress will have
assembled, and the pressure the force
of the public printer will be so great that
1t may be decided to do but little in the way
of moving into the new quarters until after
March 4. when the long recess will lessen
the strain on the facilities of the office.
1t has not been generally realized that
the cramped quarters in which the govern
ment printing office is now located have
made it impossible to dispatch the work of
the office as rapidly the public printer
has desired. The lack of space has ham,
pered the facilities for binding especially,
so that 1t now requires much more time
to get out bound edition of book than
Will be the case year hence. When the
force of the office is distributed through
the two buildings there will then De no
waste space. Some material stored in out
side rented buildings will be cared for in
the new building; and 1t is believed that
the only difficulty to be encountered will
be in properly accommodating all the
branches of the Office
Replacing the Old Structure.
Congress has as yet taken no action to-
ward the rebuilding of the old printing Of
hce building. Public Printer Palmer will
probably recommend an appropriation for
that purpose when he makes his next an
nual report. In that report he will show
that his office Is really III need of additional
room, which would be provided by placing
a seVen-story building the site now oc-
cupled by the four-StOry building. But
more important than the additional quar-
tiers that will be provided will be the re-
placing Of dangerous firetrap with mod
ern freproof structure.
When the office is in part moved into the
new building most of the machinery now
in use will be set up in It's new quarters.
Up to the present time the public printer
has not made any request for any extraor-
binary appropriation for new machinery.
His next annual report may contain a
recommendation for considerable new ap-
planes, but there will be no effort toward
equipping the office with a new plant The
equipment of the present office Is largely
up-to-date. and in cases in which ma chin
cry Is old or needs renewing it will be re-
placed gradually A considerable appro-
priation viii be needed for fitting up the
new bull ling for the old plant and this
doubtless will be promptly allowed by Con-
greSS.

Mrs. Rose Howard, who owns sew.

made application for membership in
the Searchlight, Lincoln county,
Miners Union. This being the first
case of the kind on record, the union
has referred the matter to the head
quarters of the Western Federation
of Miners for instructions.
Now that Searchlight has oil, it
will be one of the handiest mining
camps in existence, says the Phoebe
Record. The mines and mills, it has
been demonstrated by sinking shafts,
can be built together and the same
engine can be used for running both
mine and mill, and when the oil-wells
are open up, then small pipes can be
run from the wells to the mining
machinery, thus there will not be
any handling of fuel. The ore is
hoisted out of the mine, dumps itself
into the mill, goes through the same
and the gold comes out pure. One
man to oil the machinery is all that
will be required to run the whole
works, but then it might be well to
have another man around to watch
and see that none of the gold dust
blows into the oilers can. Talk about
| labor-saving works; we should smile.
