Few of those who witnessed the opening

called the fact that Justice Holmes once
served his country on the field, even as
he does now In her highest tribunal.
So In all probability, none of them real
lied that the d:gnified Judge seated

railroad train. This is what DR.. Holme,
wrote of 1t:

Appropriations for Maine Great
prnnnrafinns for lnanaurafson

Appropriations for Maine Great
Preparations for Inauguration.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 27 especially mo
| more effective work In securing large sp-
propriaticns for Maine has been done In q
long time than that OF ex-Gov. Burleigh
on the omnibus public building bill. Ten
years and more ago, when the late Seth l..
| Milliken was . member from the third
| district, and chairman OF the public build.
| iugs committee, he secured enactments
for numerous public buildings in Maine.
| After his death, however, Maine had to
| wait a while, and several public buildin'
| bills were passed with no provisions for
| the Pine Tree State. Gov. Burleigh was
| ap ointed a member of the committee,
| but as a new man, could not get the ear
| of the committee and of the House lead
ers as one older in the service could.
But iu the meanti lie Gov. Burleigh has
become leading member of the public
buildings committee, with prospects one
of these days of attaining the chairman
ship, and he has been laving the founda-
tions for moie public building legislation
for Maine, enough, in fact, to give the
State all the federal buildings needed for
the convenient transaction of government
business.
Two years and more ago he had started
the work by getting on the omnibus bill,
when Representative Mercer, Of Nebraska,
was chairman, appropriations for sites in
all the localities where public buildings
were badly needed. That year he not only
took care OF the necessary enlargement of
the Augusta postotfice, at a cost of over
S100, 600, but also secured large sums for
sites for a courthouse at Portland and for
postoffices at Bar Harbor and Calais.
That was, in reality, very wise way to
begin, for it would have been impossible
to have secured appropriations for the
entire building. But once the govern
ment appropriates money for the pur-
chase OF a site, 1t becomes committed to
the project, and 1t is only a matter OF
time, when the appropriation for the
structure must be made. So Gov. Bur-
leigh has only been biding his time, and
when it was decided this year to have an
omnibus public buildings bill, he struck
hard for Calais, Bar HRr Dor, Auburn, and
Portland,
He had almost to sleep in the room OF
the pub buildings committee for sew
ersl days to be sure they did not take his
appropriations away, when he was not
looking. Thus fierce was the strife to get
items In the bill. Now he has Maine fully
taken care OF, and probably there will be
little further demand from the State for
several years.
Even II the rumors about the public
Ct ngress prove true, Gov. Burleigh's
work will not be lost. He would be sure
of the appropriations at the next session
of Congress, or whenever a public build
ings bill is again passed.

Senator Hale has recently been In con-
ference with Representative Burton, of
Ohio, chairman of the river and harbor
committee of the House, with reference
to river and harbor items on the Maine
coast. Mr.. Hale is specially interested In
getting through Congress at this session
some appropriation for dredging Portland
har Dor. He has proposed an amendment
to that effect in the Senate, and hopes to
get it enacted into law.
Senator Frye, chairman OF the COM
mittee that has charge of river and hsr Dor
legislation at that end OF the Capitol, said
to-day that II the bill ever reached the
Senate, he proposed to put it through.
81 do not credit the reports that the bill
is to be strangled," said Senator Frye.
While the Maine items carried on the
bill are comparatively OF minor impor-
tance, they mean great deal in eventually
making more business along the Maine
coast. Should the several surveys asked
for be authorized, 1t would leadto the
eventual expenditure of considerable
money in dredging and other improve.
ments.
Several Maine people, along the coast,
have evinced an interest In legislation
asked for by the department of commerce
and labor, requiring motor bodies to be in
| spected, thesame as steam vessels OF larger
build. Following the Investigation of
| the Slocum disaster, several recommenda-
tions for stricter inspection OF all kinds
OF boats were made to Congress.
However, thus far all. efforts to have
much opposition to 1t has developed that
the department of commerce and labor
has practically dropped the subject.
Senate and House committees, in charge
of such subjects, have favorably reported
several bills, affecting the inspection OF
steam vessels.
1t Is practically certain that more severe
legislation in that direction will be en-
acted at this session. But 1t is also
certain that no legislation, calculated
to affect the hundreds of little motor
boats such as one sees along the Maine
coast, will be passed. The bill which the
department of commerce first had In
mind, provided that all boats propelled
wholly or in part by machinery, should
be regarded as steam vessels within the
meaning of the law. That, should it
become law. would make every little
gasoline boat subject to regulations that
steamboat inspectors enforce.
A year or SO ago movement In that
| direction was made, but 1t was promptly
checked at the House end by Gov. Bur-
leigh, who pointed out the hardship and
also the injustice that would result. One
| proposition was that certain launches,
carrying a certain number of people,
should have duly qualified pilot. The
legislation, as proposed, was killed In the
| fisheries.
