T am not" he said, familiar with the conditions existing in other states, but stand by my original assertion that the delegates to this convention do not represent a majority of the voters of this state." Discussing the action of the convention the Hartford Courant finishes up long editorial as follows: But as political matter, it seems to us that the republican party-which, in spite of Governor McLean's brave attitude, will be held responsible makes the blunder of it's career in this state if it invites the indignation of the people upon itself. We might save the United States senatorship, but the republicans who had the courage to run on the state ticket in an oH-year on a platform of -cities-be-d damned would find themselves engaged in a very interesting undertaking. We are unwilling to believe that this is the final decision of the convention, nor shall we believe any such thing until adjournment sine die makes any other conclusion impossible"

There exists a peculiar situation ill the house of representatives, writes a correspondent. and that chamber appears to be bent upon amply de monstrating to the country that with republican majority and the Reed rules it is a thoroughly impotent and irresponsible body. Even the presi- dent has ceased to urge his wishes upon the lower house and has concen- trated his efforts upon the senate where there seems to be every reason to believe that they have proved eff fective. The recent statements of Senator Platt of Connecticut, chair man of the committee on relations with Cuba, and Senator Proctor of Vermont, are regarded, not only as in- dicatiye of the attitude of the senate on the question of Cuban reciprocity, but as a threat that if the house does not pursue a reasonable course the senate will disregard it and effect the desired reciprocal relations by means of treaty.

The Philippine tariff bill continues to occupy the attention of the senate and drastic censure of the. course of the administration has been the us- ual order of the day on the demo- cratic side. Senator Lodge has, however, stated that the senate pro- poses to pass the measure regardless of the opinion of the minority; and his position, that he and his colleagues are not open to reason or conviction may serve to precipitate the passage of the bill, in view of the large amount of business which the sen ate still has to consider.

 Things look somewhat brighter for a public building for this city than at any time in years. The senators and representatives are now in the mood to do something for Waterbury. The fire which wiped out the business center of the city may after all be the means of bringing us what we have looked and waited for so long. The lawmakers seem to be willing to help Waterbury in it's hour of dis tress. It might not be a bad idea
 for the city officials and others inter terested to take this question up and if necessary send a delegation to Washington to keep the ball a-rolling.

PLATT SCORES HoAR.
A Sharp Exchange on the Floor of the
 Senate

Senate
 WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-A stirring debate on the general Philippine ques- ton was precipitated In the senate late yesterday, the principal partici- pants being Mir. Platt (Conn.) and MT. Hoar (Mass.) Mir. Teller (Colo.) had concluded for the day his argument against the enactment of the pending Philippine tariff bill In response to some statements he had made MT. Platt directed the senate's attention to the situation in the islands as he view ed it, maintaining that great progress was being made by the government in subduing the instruction. He refer red to the elections for municipal off cers in various cities of the islands and to the establishment of schools for the education of Filipino children. MT. Hoar ridiculed the statements of Mr. Platt and in a facetious vein adverted to the efforts of the American govern ment to control the Filipinos.
 The remarks of the Massachusetts senator aroused MT. Platt, who deliv- cred notable speech, in the course of which he referred to MT. Hoar ill pret- ty sharp terms. His speech was listen ed to by the senators on both sides of the chamber with profound attention In conclusion he paid an eloquent trib- ute to the efforts of the United States to carry the principles of free govern ment to every territory where it had control
 In his reply Mir. Hoar delivered an incisive criticism of the action of the Philippine commission, declaring that he had been taught to judge men rath- CT by their actions than by their words, and by this standard he could not judge the Philippine commissioners with any degree of favor.
 Early in the day the senate passed joint resolution submitting consti- tutional amendment changing the time of presidential inaugurations and the termination and commencement of congresses from the 4th of March to tbe last Thursday of April.
 The voting on amendments to the oleomargarine bill in the house indi- cated a considerable change of senti- ment since last congress, when the bill had 106 majority, and that the opposi- ton to the measure has gained strength.
 Several committee amendments adopted changed the phraseology of the bill. the most important being that of making the 10 cent tax apply to oleomargarine made i'll imitation of butter ''of any shade of yellow" Con- siderable feeling was injected into the proceedings toward the close of the session.

The use of a malleable reinforce ment permits the greatest facility in the construction of the most compli- cated forms required by the archi- tect, thus writes Jacques Boyer in the New England Engineering Magazine. Furthermore, the intimate connec- tions which can be made between the walls, roof, partitions and floors of a building enable g great solidity to be assured, while at the same time the various parts may be made much lighter than would otherwise be pos sible. Thus, according to M. Gerard Lavergne, partition of ordinary bricks on edge weighs LOO kilo- grammes per square metre, while one of reinforced concrete, 3 centimetres in thickness, containing rods 5 milli- metres diameter, is stronger and weighs but 70 kilogrammes The ra- pidity of execution is also an import ant point in favor of the concrete con
 
 ials are so readily obtained and heavy hoisting machinery is not required The methods of reinforced concrete construction are especially well adapt ed for underground work, particularly in humid localities such as cellars in which external infltrations are to be expected. In such instances it is ne- cessary only to protect the work with q light outer wall of reinforced con- drete. The iron being entirely pro- tected from the moisture there is no danger of loss from oxidation. Even if the iron is partially rusted when it is embedded in the concrete. a sub- sequent examination shows that the metal has become cleansed and has recovered it's original color. This is doubtless caused by a chemical ac- ton, due to the formation of double silicate around the metal.
