al aspect of the place.
Progress in Late Years.
A retrospective glance at the past
decade reveals a very remarkable adj
vance in the architectural tone Of the
city. In that time there have arisen
the courthouse and city hall, the new
Chamber of Commerce building, the
Andrus building q group of beautiful
structures on the University campus,
several excellent school buildings in
Guiding the Douglas and East Side
High, number Of creditable office
buildings for individual corporations,
such as the Northwestern and Twin
City Telephone exchanges, the Mime
apolis Gas Light companys building,
the Twin City Rapid Transit office
pany's offices, the new and most ex-
cellent banking building Of the North
western National bank, the Young
Women's Christian association build
ing, the Northwestern Miller build
ing, the office building of F. B.
and F: l.; Long, the architects;
scores Of good dwellings and ex-
cellent apartment buildings. Some
of these may not seem prominent, but
they have added to the general educa-
! tional effect of the new and good
architecture of the city.
In wholesale business the buildings
| of Wyman, Partridge & Co., Winston,
Harper, Fisher & Co., the Advance
PIGMENT Co, the Bement-Darling Co.,
the Plant Rubber Co., and others have
| demonstrated the possibility of max
| ing building entirely devoted to COM
mercial purposes, both beautiful to the
eye, suitable to the purpose for which
it is intended and at the same time
advertisement for the occupant. Such
buildings cost little If any more than
structures made Of unsuitable mate
rails and with lines and effects which
offend good taste; while their effect
| upon. the appearance of the city is
| incalculable.
The year of 1904 will see the COM
pletion of a structure which, perhaps,
carries out more adequately than any
other in the city the idea of architec-
tural effect in business building. This
Is the Cream of Wheat company
building at Fifth street and First ave-
nue. N, which is being built after plans
by Harry W. Jones. This building
will be a thing Of beauty, attractive
harmonious and fitting. 1t will be OBJ
viously commercial structure-but
it will interest everyone who looks at
it. Such buildings will set style
which 1t will be difficult for future
builders to depart from.

the this . remodeling s Of s numerous U.S. store store

PUBLIC SENTIMENT DEMANDS WELL. CONSTRUCTED AND

OF CHEAP STRUCTURES PAST = EDUCATIONAL EFF
FECTs OF THE BEST Bull DINGs OF RECENT YEARS.

There was a day IN Minneapolis
when a store was anything which
would protect a stock Of goods from
the weather and dwelling house was
a collection of lumber, plaster, paint
and hardware combined after the in
dvidual ideas Of the carpenter or
owner. A few good buildings were
put up in the early days; but in the
excusable haste to house population
which was growing most extraordln-
arily and to care for the commercial
needs of both city and country, archi-
tectural principles were very common
ly forgotten or thrust aside.
Later this condition aggravated
by the operations of spectators who
built solely for profit and without any
notion Of present honor or of perma-
nently benefiting the community. To
them Minneapolis is indebted for sun
dry rows Of tawdry tenements and a
few shaky business structures which
still dot the city. Happily their day
is pretty well past. Public sentim ent
frowns upon the man who builds ILL
looking and fimsy tenements and as
repair, cannot be sold to advantage,
and. further. cannot be mortgaged
above their value and unloaded upon
the mortgage, they are falling into
dsfavor. On the other hand, cheap
looking business buildings do not COM
mana ROOu TGIllS, COSI Dolu o"llSI ttllot
tenant heavily for insurance, and
prove generally unsatisfactory.
These remarks suggest that the i'm
proyement of architectural appearance
in the city is due to the fact that poor
architecture is poor business policy
lie the truth Of this axiom. But while
this is true, to considerable extent,
# Is not true that Minneapolis people
are so entirely material in their ideas
that they are influenced wholly by
their pocket books. Every city lacks
we're plenty of people among the pi-
oneers of Minneapolis who had they
been able would have satisfied their
tastes by building beautifully from
the very beginning. But the city was
too new and too poor to do all that 1t
wanted to do. With the accumulation
of wealth and the general diffusion of
culture and the broadening of ideas
there has been steady growth OF
attention to architecture; develop
ment which has now reached such
stage that there is a strong public SEN
timent in favor of good building
whether it be in the public edit1ces
This sentiment is, of course, modt-
fed by the attitude of those unpro.
gressive persons who can never see
anything but the strictly utilitarian
side of a auestion-the people who
want public buildings to be mere pox-
es who would like to see the park
system abolished, and who regard with
mild contempt the man who puts uI
a beautiful house and who takes pains
to beautify its surroundings. Such
old-fogyism is losing caste however

The Reader Magazine For September

There has been no statement of the
political, social and industrial condi-
tions as they exist today in Peurto
Rico that is as interesting or as en-
tightening as "The Present Outlook, ="
by Bishop James Ell. Van Buren,, in
The Reader Magazine for September.
1t is an impartial survey, for the
Bishop has neither ak to grind nor
case to prove. He opens with the
statement that the conditions, after
six years of American occupation, are
neither so good nor so bad as they
have been represented; and closes
with the dictum that: "The question
is not only whether Puerto Ricans are
capable Of receiving those ideas and
principles which have made our ma
ton what it is, but also whether the
American people can impart them"
Another article of Importance in
this magazine is "The Supremacy of
Law in which the course taken by
Governor Peabody in the recent trou-
BILE with the miners of Colorado is
defended and justified Much has been
written in condemnation of the State
officials and it is interesting to read
the other side of the case.
The September Reader is strong in
fiction. having in addition to Mae
Grath's serial, ''The Man on the
Box short stories by John Colby
