UNDER a remarkable Interpretation
Of the letter Of the law, and an equal
" remarkably application of the spirit
Of it, our city fathers on Friday even
ing, granted permission to erect a
large wooden building for stores and
tenements with a thin metal sheath
Ing, and refused the prayer OF a widow
to rebuild with wood, the rear end of
an eleven foot shop, upon either side
Of which are wooden buildings that
very recently have been repaired or re-
built with wood The first action was
based upon ain opinion that the
frame" of building is the clap
boards or other outside covering. and
the second action was practically be-
cause the widow asked permission to
rebuild, for her neighbors rebuilt
without permission and by a two
thirds vote they could have suspended
the ordinance in her case. AS the
matter now stands buildings may be
rebuilt with wood, if done without
permission, and wooden buildings may
be erected in any part of the city, pro-
viding they are veneered with sheet
iron or tin. Would it not be advisa
BILE for the Board Of Aldermen to en-
ploy an architect to explain to them
what should be understood by the or
dinance which says no wood shall be
used in the construction Of the frame
Of a building?

COMMUNICATIVE.


EDITOR OF The CHRONICLE
A most interesting as we'll as in
structive feature Of the value of the
observance Of the anniversary of Wash.
ington's Birthday, and one perhaps
not generally known to the people OF
Morristown, was strikingly illustrated
by a simple incident on February %.
AS entered Washington's Headouar-
tiers last Thursday for the purpose Of
registering my name, found group
OF some twenty Italians standing in
line before the registry book waiting
each his turn to enter his name. On
inquiry | learned from the lady at
tendant that for several years it has
been the custom of the Italians Of
Morristown and vicinity, on Washing
ington's Birthday, to make their one
annual visit to the HEADQUARTERS. In
the earlier part Of the day, the child
rem arrive in troops all eagerly inter-
ested IN the exhibitions of the venera-
BILE building. Later on, the wives and
mothers appear, and in the afternoon
the men, each and all eager to have
their names enrolled on the register.
After visiting the several rooms and
viewing the collection of Revolutions
airy relics and souvenirs and the pict-
ures on the walls, they quietly depart.
They seem to regard this annual pill
grimage to the Headquarters as a rev.
erent homage due to The memory of
the Father of the Country in which
they have found home. Last Thurs
day more than three hundred Italian
men, women and children made this
visitation.
When we think of the multitudcs
from southern Europe crowding to
our shores, the mind is soften oppressed
with the seriOuSneSSSOf the question
as to what kind of citizens these for
eign-born people will make. 1t must
be then no small cause for congratula-
tion and hopefulneSs for the future,
that at least here in MOrristown,
Washington's Headquarters with it's
illustrlouS historic associations and
numberless reminders of the early
days Of Our national life, is silently
but impressively intoxicating its les
sons of patriotism, of loyalty to the
high principles Of civil and religious
freedom, as well as of venerati0n for
the founders of the Republic.

WASHINGTON AND ROOSEVELT.

I
Colonel George Harvey, writing Of
the Presidents break with the Repub-
lican leaders of the senate on the
question of railway rate regulation,
calls attention to the fate of Presi-
dents Tyler and johnson. He admits
that the President is now very popu-
lar, but declares that is not more 50
than Washington and Grant we're at
the beginning Of their second terms,
and yet they went out of office with
but shadow Of their former popu-
larity.
1t is altogether probable that Presi-
dent Roosevelt is not giving himself
any keen anxiety regarding his popu-
larity. The President is not only a
statesman of many years experience,
but he is also student and writer of
history. He knows very well what a
tickle thing popularity is. He fully
realizes that the wonderful popularity
which he has attained and Of which
the election Of 1904 gave 50 signal a
proof, may have been lost by the end
of his present term.
Nevertheless he may regard such a
possibility as an inevitable contin-
gency in the life of a public man who
is unwilling TO purchase popularity by
the sacrifice Of his independence and
conscience.
The President is looking further
ahead than the end of his present
term. and by the programme which
he has adopted is building a reputa-
ton for the years to come. He be-
lieyes that his policy in regard to the
proper regulation of the corporations
will effect the destinies and promote
the well being of the people of the
United States for generations yet I'M
born. He may be mistaken, of course,
but, believing as he does, it is far bet
