To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir. ApropOs Of Your editorial on Building and
Rebuilding i'm this mornings issue. isn't T. Just
possible that Neyv-Yorkers are carrying the sracv
OF patience a trife beyond the limits Of prudence
and are thereby submitting 70 impositions and an

instance a in point ~ the northwest corner
OF Sixth-ave- and Forty-second-st.. row of old
buildings exts udinS from the corner To nearly the
middle OF the block toward third-st. is being
altered. and tn operations are being carried on
with an utter disregard of all the city laws and
ordinances governing such operations. Under the
Tammany rule II would naturally have been sup
posed that the proper city official had been seen.
but under the present administration the thing is
uuthinkable.
The houses are bein. so thoroushIy altered that
everything except the side walls and the hoUrs
were removed. the front walls entirely
moved All this involved throwing down brick and
mortar and laths which done Careessly
that much OF the stuff fell the sidewalk. and II
required great To escape injury. The sidewalk
for half block has Uttered with plaster and
laths and the west half OF the avenue Is com
pIetely taken UP with the debris that II has been

passersby The confinement Of the debris Car
timber in the street The unusable debris is allowed
70 remain in the street and on the sidewalks where
the upturned nails In the laths offer irresistible
attraction the feet of the unwary.
And this nuisance has been tolerated on one OF
the busiest corners in the city without anv appar-
ent let or hindrance. The thousands who daily

to submit the dangers Of accidents from ma

not so serious TO the travellers from the Central
station but 10 the others who live in the vicinity
II Is an tntOlerable nuisance. II the matter Is

No BaCKTARu TRICKS

An inspiring and particularly timely note was
sounded 5y the President Friday night in his
brief address before a patriotic society. He
spoke OF the men Of distinguished achievements
IN the past who did justice as strong men. not
as weaklings' ana of the desirabilitv of our
following their example and maintaining their
ideals. And then he reminded his hearers that
I'VE can 10 more afford 10 show weakness than
I'VE can afford 10 do wrong. Where wrong has
f'been done by any one the wrongdoer shall be
punished; hut we shall not halt in our great
work because some man has happened 10 do
r'wrOng"
. That was an utterance of practical common
sense and of high ethical excellence and as we
have said it was most timely for the reason
ahat just now some seem inclined TO think more
of the evil that a few have done than Of the
good work i'll which the many are engaged. 1t
is unhappy quite true that some men have
done wrong. Their names and deeds are still
fresh in our memory. Rathbone and Neely in
Cuba are names 10 be recalled with hui
Initiation. Nor are these the only ones whose
conduct has brought reproach upon the Amer
sican name Yet they are. after all only
few. and are conspicuous only as exceptions 10
'rhe rule 1t has been ever thus The President
was speaking 10 the Sons Of the American Revo-
lution. 1t not necessary 10 remind his
hearers that in the heroic days of the Fathers
'of the Republic" there were a Conway and a
Gates and Charles Lee and Benedict Arnold
But the Revolution was not abandoned be-
cause of these. Washington did not turn back
from his Trenton campaign because of Gates's
desertiOn nor relnqush West Point and the
4. Hudson because Of ArnOld's treason II would
have been folly to Withdraw from Cuba because
clerk or two went wrong. 1t would be incred-
liie baseness 10 refrain from doing good be-
cause evil has been done.
We shall yield precedence to no one in ready
end relentless condemnation of evildoers. be
! they Americans or CubaDs or Filipinos Where
wrong has been done 10y any one the wrong
.ss6ssr sshall be punished But we have no
admiration for and no sympathy with those
who can see. or who affect 10 see the spots
upon the sun more clearly than they see the
sun itself II is well to condemn and 10 punish
the tro or three unfaithful administrators in
Cuba. But il is we'll indeed Indispensable. 10
remember also the hundreds of faithful up-
vfgnt, unselhsh men who have Loyalty toiled and
Z Sacrificed themselves for the honor of the Amer
| lean name and for the advancement of the best
Interests Of an alien people. We may condemn
what seem cruel and inhuman acts of a few
of our soldiers in the Philippines But il would
be monsfrous injustice TO ignore the bearing Of
'ths white mans burden" the patient labor.
+ the tender sympathy, the humane forbearance
amid all but intolerable provocation Of tens Of
thousands of our fellow Americans all through
I that archipelago.

To many people Alaska seems TO be a sadly
