MIR. NIEHAUs. DISCUSSES PROTEST.
Says Architects Want Work on Harrison
Monument Themselves.

Charles ii. Niehaus the sculptor, returned yes

a meeting last week of the Benjamin Harrison
Monument Commission. The meeting called to
discuss the proposed base for the monument. which
was designed by Harry Bacon. of New York. Pro
test made by Rankin, Kellogg & Crane. the
architects of the Federal Building, that the monu-
ment and exedra. if placed in front of the building
would mar the general effect. Regarding the oppo-
sition Mr.. Niehaus said last evening:

First, they objected that an exedra should not be
of a roadway, but at the head OF a roadway or in
a park. We showed that exe6ras were found off
roadways in Berlin, Paris, ASH Minor and else
where. They claimed that the exedra was too high

While the advocate of Capitalization is urging
legislation which obliterates State lines and re- re,
voters, the monopolist may, on the other hand
hide behind the Democratic theory of self gov,
eminent and use this theory to prevent national
legislation which may be necessary. The Demo.
crat who believes in Democratic principles ana
who wants to preserve the dual character OF our
government must be on his guard against ,gg both
companies has led to the discussion of national
remedies, and the advocates of Capitalization are
legislation which will take the business of life
insurance out of the hands of the various states.
The Democrats should draw a distinction between
federal legislation which is supplemental to state
legislation and that form of federal legislation
which would substitute national for a state
remedy. No national charter should be granted to
an insurance company. and federal supervision
should interfere with the exercise of the power
now vested in the States to supervise companies
doing business in such States

The price of mutton ought to be
much higher since the great advance
in sleeps wool makes that animal the
most productive "critter' man can
own. To-day the sleeps clip sells
for about as much as the sheep Will
bring, and the Montana sheep ranch
men are contracting for their next
Springs shearing before the wool has
sprouted on the sleeps back.
The bearing of this on the clothing
business is obvious. A wooden manu-
facturer who pays large percentage
of advance for his raw material, must
get more for his cloth, or keep the
price down by deterioration. Cotton
is cheaper than wool, SO is shoddy;
both are useful in their places, but
neither have any place in the fabrics
we cut into garments.
We're not trying to see how cheap
clothing we can produce, but how
good clothing; and after all it doesn I
matter whether the four or i've
pounds OF wool that III sui VI
clothes costs a few cents a pound
more or less.
The point of this is good clothes
NAV be had this Fall for about the
usual price; but there will be a larger
percentage of inferior cloth made into
clothing in this country than usual.
The character of your clothler IS
apt to indicate the character Of the
cloth he puts into his clothes.

Mr.. J. c. Cox. in a long letter to THE Ath-
enaum.'' has some interesting things to say on
the sources of Blackmores most famous book.
II seems that he lived within the confines of the
old forest of Exmoor a small boy ana tales
of the Doones of Badgworthy were familiar TO
him from his earliest recollection. IL used to re-
tail these blood curding stories of the Exmoor
outlaws in a school dornitory.' he says, with
the result that a clever roommate of mine ,woVe
some of these together into story called The
Doones of Exmoor," which appeared In eight
weekly fnstalments in The Leisure Hour for
1863 Lorna Doone' did not aapear until 1869.
had a letter from Mr.. r. D. Blackmore
acknowledging that it was the accidental glanc-
ing at the comparatively poor stuff in The
Leisure Hour that gave him the clew for the
weaving of the romance and caused him to study
the details on the spot
The idea that band of Doone robbers never
really existed was secuted by the old inhabitants
of the region consulted by Mr.. Cox. 1.-The gen
eral consensus of opinion he says. points to
their coming to Somersetshire in the troublous
times of the Commonwealth, or in the years i'm
rnediately preceding, few of the better read in
formants naming the days of Oliver Cromwell
or King Charles. Several had always heard
that they came outlaws from Scotland. All
gave them name for malignant cruelty"

HE FILED THE MANDAMUS.
Supervisors of Election to Explain
Why They Decided On
The Date of Reg
iStration. -

MandamuS proceedings were begun
IN the Circuit Court this morning
against the Supervisors of Elections
of the county. The proceedings had
been contemplated for several days.
but Tor obvious reasons it was held
back until after the meeting of the
state Central Committee of the Dem
ooratic parry an Baltimore Yesterday.
The petition was filed by DIR. George
Wells, a member of the committee
and also recognized leader of the
Democratic forces in the city and
county. Owing TO the fact that one
OF the members of the board of super
vlsors - related TO Judge James
kevell the latter does Enet feel COM
petent to set in the case.
For this reason Judge /. Thomas
Jones will probably be summoned here
TO examine into the meritslOf the con.
troVersy which has arisen and "A deci.
lson Will be secured at as eariV a
time as possible. The allegations and
prayer OF the petition are not very
lengthy and consume Shut little time
IN the reading.
The proceedings are the outgrowth
OF the decision of the supervisors to
hold registration in the city on June
and in spite of the contention of
many that June 26 aud 81 should have
been the date. 1t IS To have the court
decide in favor of the latter dates
that the proceedings were instituted
today. According to the petition this
is the legal date as provided by the
law as opposed to the general election
law, under which the date was set
by the supervisors.
