MUNICIPAL BUILDING
WHAT HAS BEEN DONE AS TO THE
INCREASED APPROPRIATION.

1t is understood upon reliable authority
that the members of the District building
commission are confident that the members
of both branches of Congress will pot con-
sent to the erection of a brick factory
style of building as the permanent home OF
the District government, on the principal
thoroughfare of the national capital. Con-
sequently the members of the commission
are likewise confident that Congress will
in due season grant the commissions re-
quest for an increase of $500. 600 In the total
cost of the new municipal building.
Commissioner Mcfarland states that
there seems to be an erroneous impression
in certain quarters relative to what has
been done by the Commissioners with refer
ence to obtaining this increase In the total
cost of the new District building.
In speaking of the efforts made by the
Commissioners before the present session
of Congress in the interests of the In
crease, Commissioner mcfarland today
said:
The Commissioners, acting under the
resolution adopted by the District building
commission after the opening of the stone
bids in November, lost no time In present.
ing to Congress the request that, In ac-
cordance with their original estimate, tho
limit of cost of the District building should
be extended from 81 100000 to 81 100000, in
order that it should be built of stone in
stead of brick. We talked first with the
District subcommittee of the committee on
appropriations, and then with Chairman
GilIett of the House committee on public
buildings, and Chairman Fairbanks OF the
Senate committee on public buildings. we
also conferred with Speaker Cannon and
with individual members of the House ana
Senate committees on public buildings.
1--WE began at the opening of the session,
and have continued our efforts ever since.
The matter has been fully, though INFORM
ally presented, and we believe that 1t mas
considered. We Were a0-
vised that the committee on public build
ings might not report public buildings
bill and that, until the question of whether
it would do so or not was first decided
formal consideration of our recommended
ton would not be given, but that as soon
as it was decided there would be
public buildings bill our recommendation
would be given full consideration. Nothing
remains to be done except to present Tor
mally the facts and arguments We have
presented informally. This will be done as
soon as the proper time arrives L am IN
formally advised that up to this morning
that time had not arrived.

Another Argument Against.
he Editor of The Evening Star:

To the dior of The Evening Star:
The people of the District of Columbia
should recall that the Constitution of the
United States provides that each person
has a right to make a living a anything
he may think proper, SO long as he is
within the bounds of the law. The ma
jority of the mechanics in the District of
Columbia are somewhat connected with
the construction OF buildings. DO they
realize the condition in which they will
be placed if the. master builder bill be-
comes a law? The assertion has been
made by some of the master builders
that it will not conflict or injure the
smaller contractors in any way But the
bill reads that any person or persons
caught doing anything Connected with the
construction of a building shall be sub
jected to a fine of not less than SO and
not more than $50. 1t is believed that
such a law would be unconstitutional
There are today a large number of men
in this city making an honest living for
themselves and families by doing small
jobs, such as repairing fences woodsheds,
patching floors, putting in sash cords and
so on, which is unquestionably connected
with the construction of a building. Those
men would be barred out by the opera
ton of the proposed law. They could not
obtain a job with any builder because
the latter would say, mo, you are too
old; you cannot earn the standard wages.
We want some young person who can get
around fast and make some money for
u.s." This would be thought, II not said;
so. of course, they would be out. If that
is not depriving man of his rights do
not know what to call it.
1 believe that the object of this bill is
just this: Its originators have formed an
idea that there are too many small build
ers in business, and the only way they
can shut them out is to form a trust of
the building trade. They do not realize
the fact that they were not always large
and popular builders. They had first to
start small and build themselves up to
where they are today. The young BUSH
ness people of this country should be eX-
tended a hand to assist them in their
efforts, and not laid under a heavy bur-
den to crush them out of existence for
the sake of the almighty dollar. Under
the operation of this proposed statute
man to engage in the building business
would have to pay $40 for body of five
men to say whether or not he is to be
permitted to enter the ring, put up $4,000
bonds and then pay $25 license fee. A
man going through such a test as that
would be far ahead of the official in
spectors and would not need any one to
say if he is right or not, but could work
to suit himself.
l think that when builder furnishes
suitable bond for his faithful perform
ance of the work he does all that is suf-
ficient, for such bonds would not be given
if the bondsmen were in any doubt as to
the ability reliability of the builder.

DANGER TO THE FUR SUPPLY.
Proposal to Institute a Game Preserve
Under Protection of Canada.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
A recent number of the sporting paper
Forest and Stream speaks of 1.-The enor-
nous destruction of animal life which
takes place each year among bearing
animals and the very extraordinary way in
which the supply of these animals appears
to keep up A certain number of fur
bearing animals may not be driven out by
human invasion of their habitat, but I'M
doubtedly the extension of the boundaries
of land occupation and development has
driven many of the most valuable of them
into ever narrower confines. Total eX-
tinction Of some of the species is only a
question of time. unless some provision is
made for their preservation. The day will
come when the otter, the beaver, the mink,
the fox, the marten, the sable, the ermine
and others of their kind will all be extinct
as the dodo.
A very interesting paper bearing on this
subject was read before the recent meeting
of the international geographical congress
by DIR. Townsend w. Thorndike of Boston,
who has given a great deal of careful
study to the question, particularly in
Canada, now one of the chief sources of
fur supply.
Westward and southwestward of Hudson
bay lies a vast district known as the mus
keg region. The nature of the soil and the
persistence of a frozen subsoil make its
cultivation impossible. 1t contains many
streams and considerable extent of wood
lanU OF llltIe OF. ITO NdluS lOf COIilmcICldi
purposes. DR.. Thorndike proposes that
this otherwise valueless tract shall be
made, by legislative acts of the Canadian
parliament, preserve for the fur industry.
He would have the animals rigidly protect
ed, their slaughter for the fur market Of
ficially regulated, and put them and the
reservation in the hands of the Indians,
their natural guardians. The Indians
would be game wardens and trappers for
the markets, subject to rules officially es-
tablished.
This would seem to be suggestion worth
careful consideration by the Canadian of
ficials. Such a reservation would make
useful an otherwise wasted area, relieve
Canada of at least a part of her present
Indian burden and might be made the
| means of obtaining considerable public
revenue.

Athletic Japanese Women.
From the Chicago News.

Advocates of the physical equality or
women and men might find arguments TO
support their theory among the Japanese.
The girls and boys wrestle on equal terms
and the women are said to be as strong as
the men-supple, bounding with the vim of
life and graceful in every line" The Japa-
nese woman seeks abundance of air, drinks
pure water and goes out of doors the first
thing in the morning. Consequently con-
sumption is a rare disease. Instead of iv-
ing in overheated rooms they merely ada
extra clothing to what they wear already
Women always have some time for recrea-
ton Even the poorest woman goes to the
bath at night and later on meets her
friends. But all go to rest early.

MASTER BUILDER BILL
TWO WORKERS WHO ARGUE
AGAINST ITS PASSAGE.
How It Would Affect the Small Builder
Many Would Be Thrown
Out.
the Editor of The Evening Star:

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
/ desire to enter my protest against the
passage of a law by Congress which will
prohibit me from earning livelihood in
this, my home, where I was born. The
passage of the law suggested by certain
large master builders and recommended by
the Commissioners of the District of Co.
lumbia to Congress will entail great hard
ship and, in many cases, reduce good, am
bilious mechanics to starvation by making
it crime to pursue their chosen occupa-
ton. There are hundreds of practical me-
chanics in the District of Columbia, men
of character and responsibility, who will
find it a hardship to pay the fees required
under the proposed act, much less give the
bond of $1,000 The passage of the act
proposed will put the labor of the District
of Columbia at the mercy of the rich mas
ter builders and building corporations. Ii
they do not see proper to employ union
labor, and use non-union labor instead,
where will the denied class find liveli-
hood?
One of the alleged reasons given for the
passage of the proposed law is that better
class of buildings will be the result. In an.
swer to that l would like to ask why, If
that be the case, the necessity for highly
paid building inspector and his large and
expensive force of assistant inspectors?
What they paid for if not to see that
the building regulations are faithfully car
ried out? The Commissioners of the Dis
trict of Columbia, it seems to me, have
been imposed upon by set of men who
not only desire to control the mechanical
labor of the District, but also desire to
control the cost of building. What be-
comes of the person who desires to build
himself small $500 or 5000 house on the
outskirts-maybe he himself a carpenter?
He must pay SO examination fee; then, If
he passes, pay an additional $50, and then,
before he can begin to nail on weather
boards he must seek for a bond of $1,000.
Failing in these, he can't build his own
house, but must see a master builder, II
he is still inclined to build and make terms
with him, who may, perhaps hire him TO
build his own house. Surely there must be
still some Justice and fairness among de-
cent, thinking men,

Bees Poison Some Flowers.
rom the Lewiston Journal,

From the Lewiston Journal.
At the Kennebec Conservatory I was
looking over the show of plants and flow
ers when / asked Superintendent Ohm if he
ever had trouble with bees in his glass
houses.
Yes replied Mr.. Ohm, "in the early
spring and through the spring months I
have a great deal Of bother with bees.
They dodge into one flower, then into an
other in which, by sprinklng the pollen of
the first flower, they destroy the second"
For example, pink bloom into which a
pollen covered bee had flown would close
over night, and the only remedy, as Mr..
Ohm remarked, was to keep sharp lookout
for the bees and get ahead of them by pick
ing the flowers before the winged pests got
a chance at them.
