FOR 4 WEST SIDE CVY NAL.

Mayor DUNES suggestion that the
City Hall be removed from the down
town district and located Oh the West
Side seems to have been received with
general public approval. Union Park,
the site mentioned by Mayor Dunno,
II it he available, would be an ideal
one In many respects, but, as the
Mayor has said, II this should be
found impossible. there are plenty Of
other desirable sites, In convenient 10.
cations Oh the West Side, which could
be secured by condemnation proceed
ings. This change. as has been oh
served. has been urged by residents of
the West Side ever since the great
fire, but hitherto without effect. The
time for 1t had not come. but now that
Mayor Dunno has spoken approvingly
of It. public favor has so rapidly crys.
tallized In favor Of the movement that
1t Is no longer West Side question.
but a city question. and one which
seems to be strongly approved by the
great majority Of the people just now.

AFTER IHE TOU0H RESORTS.

Working together In common
cause. In behalf of public morality, the
Mayor and the States Attorney have
begun n crusade against resorts OF
vice, which promises some real reform
and public benefit.
The states Attorney having been IN
office for several weeks has his line Of
action well IN hand AMI has started
ont In way that promises speedy
results. Mayor dunno has given ear.
nest of what his course of action In
this regard Is likely to be by revolving
the license of one place Of disOrlerly
character, and announcing that he
shall certainly revoke every license
where the place Is improperly man
aged"
This Is good news for the public as
well as for the legitimate trade ana
people who conduct their business in
II respectable and orderly way.

CHY NAL COBWEBS AND BAR
NACLeS CONG.

1t Is very evident that the intention
OF the new city administration is to
get rid Of the City Hall cobwebs and
barnaclcs which have so long cloggcd
mp the operation and lmpcdcd the
progress Of the municipal machinery
Of Chicago.
When Mayor Dunno appointed Jo-
seph Medill Patterson Commissioner
Of Public Works "A week ago, The
Eagle predicted that this act meant
a departure from the antiquated and
vicious methods of the old gang rule,
and parting OF the gang Itself from
the public pap.
Already the events which have fol-
lowed rapidly on the heels of Mr., Pat.
terson's appointment 20 TO prove the
accuracy OF this prediction. Mr. Pat
terson has brought with him into the
important office of public works a new

number of other things. are among the

Cd of Imprisonment. But at length
the sentence Is served. our time Is IN,

winters are cold. 1t is regarded as a
matter Of course: something for which
we are In no way responsible and from

us away from our tramps in the woods
because we cannot. or do not, wear
foot-gear which will give Us mastery
of 1t. We yield to the cold because
we do not dress properly to combat It.;
the rain keeps us prisoners because
our habits of life make us fearful of q

always joyous. TO be free Is ever the
greatest happiness in the world: and

TIVE SYMPTOM TUNNEL.

After years Of the hardest sort Of
work. one of the greatest engineering
feats in the world has been finally ac.
tomplished. The Simplon tunnel has
been formally opened, and the first
trains have passed through. Not only
IS 1t the longest tunnel in the world,
but its course Is beneath greater
weight Of mountains than any other.
There have been numerous disappoint.
ments and heart-breaking delays In the
work, AMI upon one occasion ii was
thought that it would have to be given
up. At one period of the construction
Il subterranean stream of hot water
was encountered, which compelled the
cessation of work, ana the difficulties
encountered in blocking this under
ground hot river were prodiglous.
Added to the other difficulties, it ap-
pears that the biologists and engineers
who did the preliminary work were
very generally mistaken in their proph.
ecies as to the character of the soil
which would be encountered. The
strata of rock, II seems, dipped in most
unexpected directions, ana before the
work was we'll begun the original
plans had to he almost entirely re-.
vised. OF course the work took great
deal longer than was at first expected.
Such enormous engineering mdertak.
lngs usually do. But il has been free
from scandals throughout, which
speaks well for the administrative
ability of the Swiss and Italians. On
the whole, If the United States makes
as good record in its great undertake
ing. the Panama Canal, as have the
Swiss and Italians In building the Sim,
plon Tunnel, congratulations from the
rest Of the world will be in order.

While the Eagle has always main
tanned that Chicago has among its jus
tees of the peace Il number of the
