Of the dizziest project first, the Singer
company proposes to erect in the mid
die OF its History building a 60-foot-
square tower 500 feet high, SO feet
taller than the Washington monument
The History building will act as a base
for the shaft which will spring from Il
another % stories. The forty-frst and
succeeding stories will be partly hid
den in a dome which will curve above
the shaft and end in a series Of three
diminishing cylindrical lantaerns cor
tanning no Offices. The highest inhab-
tied room will be about $50 feet from
the curb. There is no mechanical dit
ficulty in the enterprise; the tower OF
the Philadelphia city hall and that of
the Cologne cathedral are more than
500 feet high. The question is simply
cost and taste and preference. Coal
consumption for the elevator service Is
much greater with every added story,
but on land worth ten millions an acre
upward more room to rent is a balan-
cling item.
The Park Row building, which was
@-s:1 two years ago the record in its
line, is only 20 stories up to its twin
savers, in which a few more tiers OF
offices are slowed. But other buildings
besides the Singer enterprise are sooa
to mount into the air to make incon-
spicuous everything that now pokes its
head above the little old island.

TOO MUCH JOHNSON
The Play given by the Skoshone Band
A Grand success.

.sToo Much Johnson" the play
given under the auspices OF the
Shoshone band, was, without doubt
the best home talent reproduction
ever presented in this town. 1t
would be an injustice to give speci-
al mention of any one character as
little or no improvement could
have been made on any of them.
From the time the curtain was
raised on the first act until the fin
al drop on the third the interest
in the play never ceased for one
moment and by the repeated ap-
plause accorded them the members
of the cast could see that their ef-
forts were appreciated by the au-
d;ence. After the play social
dance was given and large num-
Der of couples remained and dane
cd until the wee hours of the morn

The following is a synopsis Of
the play and the program as fur
nished for the evenings entertain
ment:

lne country is now face 10 1ac
with the railroad rate fight. In
stead of the squabbles that hav,
taken place behind closed doors G
the senate committee on Interstat
| Commerce, the great battle is nov
to be fought out openly on the foo
of the senate, and the people vii
now have an opportunity to se'
wheather their representatives are
with the President and the people
or with the railroads. Senator
Aldrich, the pet OF the Standard
Oil Company, has been trying tc
place the railroad fight in the light
of a huge joke. Unable to amend
the Hepburn bill in the committee
he seems to have taken almost ma
licious delight in suggesting Sena-
tor Tillman as the proper person
to have charge of it on the floor OF
the senate. The honor belonged
to Senator Dolliver, who has stood
staunchly for the bill, but the Aid
rich strength, composed of Aldrich.
Foraker, Keen, Crane, and Elkins,
was sufficient to name Tillman.
Mr., Aldrich did this for two rea-
sons. Firt, Mr.. Tillman, Demo-
crat, has been the most bitter enc
my the President has had in con-
gress. Therefore his selection was
unquestionably intended as an in
suit to the President. Second,
Mr.. Aldrlch wishes to give the the
impression that the bill is practi-
cally democratic measure because
it was supported in the committee
by full democratic membership,
whereas the majority OF the re-
publicans opposed it.
All this, of course, may be strict
ly in accordance with Mr.. Aldrich's
idea of q joke, but he is already
beginning to find that the ques-
tion of governmental supervision
over railroads is not a joking mat
ter. He cannot draw partisan
lines. The Hepburn bill has had
the support OF the President. 1t
was reported to the house unani-
mously, republicans and democrats
alike voting for it. 1t was passed
by the house as strictly non-par-
tisan measure, and it stands before
the senate absolutely non-partisan.
No Senator, even though he may |
belong to the class known as "rail-
road Senators, can skulk behind a
partisan wall, and every one will
nave to answer to his state.
Mr.. Aldrich's scheme, however,
las already proved boomerang

ate bill by having Senator Till

Dill would be materially nandl
capped if put in Tillman's hand
has already happily proved to b
erroneous. Roosevelt and Tillmal
are too big and too patriotic to per
NIT their own personal difference
to enter into such an importan
matter, and Tillman declars tina
he will push the measure as earn
estly and as vigorously as if it had
been proposed by president of hi
own party. While Senator Till
man is nominally the leader of the
administration forces in the senate
one the rate question, the real pow
ee behind the throne is Bailey Of
Texas, the most astute politicis n
and gifted orator in either house oi
congress. This does not mean
that Tillman is NEARLY fgurhead,
but it means that during the COM
ing battle between the giants of
the senate, Baily will be at Till
mans side ever ready to help him
in the great legislative battle.
Congressman French has intro
duced bill providing for the open
ing OF the Occur d. Alene Indian
reservation. During the last con-
gress Senator Hepburn and Mr..
French secured an appropriation
of s25, 900 for the purpose of hav--
ing complete survey made OF the
reservation. This survey has not
been finished yet, but it is expect
ed that it viii be in the near future
and the purpose OF Mr.. French in
introducing the bill at this time is
to facilitate the opening of the res
ervation when the survey is ac-I
cepted, even though congress may
not be in session at the time. 1t is
likely that the survey will not be
accepted before the adjournment
OF the present session of congress
and it is Mr. French's desire that
the reservation be thrown open
just as soon as possible, and the
bill merely provides against the
emergency of having to wait until
the next session of congress.
