session in the form which the opponents of
the Lafayette Square site propose in their
defense CT that piece of ground from con-
domination. that is, with the site named
from among the many. available squares
lying within the triangle. This opposition
is practically certain to continue session
after session. as long as the menace to the
affected residential interests lasts. The
constant increase of the governments BUSH
ness will add materially from year to year
TO the problem of properly housing the Of

embarrassments, vastly increasing the diff

end of a curtailing of the delay and the re-
lief of the property owners of both Lafay-

Gov. Hogg's Questions.

Judge Parker is not likely to answer the
questions propounded by 0overnor Hogg of
Texas. They are interesting, however, as
she wing where Governor Hogg himself and
those who vote with him stand. The ref
erence to an income tax is particularly
pointed 1t was because of that item that
David B. Hill fought and voted against the
GormanWilson tariff bill. He challenged
it Immediately upon its appearance, and
warned his party that it indicated the ris-
ing tide of populism within the organiza-
ton. His views were disregarded, and at
Chicago two years later populism swallowed
the democracy boots and breaches We
may be very certain that Mr.. Hill has not
changed his mind on that subject, and fair
ly well assured that Judge Parker is in
agreement with him. New York democrats
of the Hill Belmont Murphy school
are not in touch anywhere with Governor
Hogg. .s 80 -' -
