PEAKS.
the city the American Paris in the
arrangement of it's streets, n the
American Naples in the beauty of its
bay and skies.
The man most prominently identi-
fled with the movement for the beautf-
flying of San Francisco is Daniel Hud-
son Burnham, who designed the court
of honor at the Chicago worlds fair,
and who has built many magnificent
buildings at Chicago and elsewhere.
The plans for the ideal San Francisco
are chiefly his, and how far his ideas
of a metropolis with broad ~boulevards,
and great parkways, and wooded
heights, a city of sunken gardens, or
airy bridges, of stately gardens and
broad expanses are to be realized re-
mains to be seen. But it is more than
likely that in the main his scheme
will be carried out.
It provides first for a civic center
where all the principal city buildings
are to be located and also the new
union railroad station. About this is
to be a broad, circular boulevard, a
perimeter of distribution, and beyond
this is a series of broader boulevards
or parkways connecting the hills,
which are to be converted into parks
themselves.
About this is to be the encircling
boulevard following the shore line
of the peninsula. The scheme in
cludes also the extension of the ave-
nue. leading to the Golden Gate park,
known as the Panhandle, the build
ing of a Greek amphitheater on the
Twin Peaks, with a statue of San
Francisco greeting the countries of
the orient. The plan also provides
for a new parade ground at the Pre-
sidio and the building of numerous
parks and Fairgrounds throughout the
city. Mr.. Burnham's plan for the
New San Francisco leaves Chinatown
out of the reckoning.
Twin Peaks and the property lying
around them would be acquired for
park purposes by the city. The idea
is to weave park and residence into
interesting and economic relations,
and also to preserve from the en-.
croachments of building the hill bor
dered valley running to Lake MERGED,
so that the vista from the parks te
the ocean shall be u%nbroken. 1t is
planned to preserve the beautiful can.
yOn or glen to the south of Twin
Peaks and also to maintain as far
as possible the wooded background
formed by the hills looking south
from Golden Gate park. This park
area of the Twin Peaks. which in
San Miguel valley and is terminated
by Lake MERGED. is a link in the chain
Of parks girdling the city.
To the north of Twin Peaks lies a
natural hollow. Here it is proposed
to create an amphitheater or stadium
of vast proportions. The gentler
slopes of the Twin Peaks will prob
ably be used as villa properties. The
plans for Twin Peaks also include a
collective center or academy which Is
to be arranged for the accommodation
of men in various branches of intel
lectual pursuits.
Even Telegraph hill is to have it's
precipitate sides terraced and is to
to be transformed into a park, accord
ing to the design of Mr.. Burnham.
To carry out all the plans of the archi-
tect would be a large task just now,
but the citizens of the new San Fran
cisco expect that the broad general
lines will be laid down and then in
the curse of time the rest will be
added.

In the appointment OF r. d. Coburn as

cd wisely. without any reflection upon
the active candidates for the place II must
be admitted by their friends that the Ap-
pointmsnt Of any Of them might have

cannot be thus assailsd. His great work

turs has made him one Of the best known

The Governors prompt appointment
Of F. d. Coburn to be United States Sen.
atcr In place Of Senator Burton came as d
great surprise to everybody yesterday
afternoon. Owing to the fact that Con-
grsss will adjourn at very early date
until next December, and the new ap-
pointee will have little more than thirty
days Of actual service before the Legisla-
tnre will be ready to elect his successor,
II was very generally believed that the
Governor would make no appointment
but turn the matter over to tho people for
decision at the election In November.
The appointment Of Mr.. Coburn will DO
an exceedingly popular one. twill meet
the almost universal approval Of the
farming classes and from q political stand.
point Is recognized as one Of great
strength. While Mr.. Coburn has had
very little, If any, experience as lsgis-
lator, he 10 thoroughly equipped with
practical, common sense intelligence
concerning the affairs Of the day, and
particularly the needs Of Kansas and the
agricultural interests Of the country. He
can be depended upon to perform the
real duties OF Senator with great credit to
himself and to his state.
The decision which Mr.. Coburn makes
In the matter Of accepting the place is one
which will, however, concern him very
keenly. 1t will mean the giving up Of a
life work in which he Is absorbed, and
has been prs-eminentlY successful, for q
place for which he has neither taste nor
inclination. To his credit, 10 can be said,
Mr.. Uoburn is no politician. He Is not
fitted by training or temperament for the
practical political work which the Sena-
torship Involves, and II is In that direct
ion that he can look for the trials and
tribulations which will bring him dissap-
pointment and dissatisfaction with bis
new honors. Topeka Herald.
