Inhabitants of nineteenth-century and early
notwithstanding cities dwelt in dismal
alleys. crowded courtyards and dark tene-
ments. Then some curious persons dubbed
in the lingo of those remote times as.
"cranks" began to say that everything was
not well ordered as 1t might be and
thousands need not die in infancy Just
because they tried to live in city. At
first these unusual men and women were
scoffed at. 'Pshaw." the people said, ARE
not our dimly illumined tenements. and
courtyards and alleys bright enough. for
did not many of our ancestors dwell in

But the coming historian will say that the
fad of civic beauty grew till 1t became
necessity. for nobody cared to live In an
ugly city when they could get health and
beauty at very slight increase in taxes.
According to the New York papers. even
New York, city which in most matters
of government and municipal conduct lags
several years behind other towns, is looking
up the matter of municipal beauty. The
improvement commission created in 1903
has made it's report. Among the recon-
menGations is one for the creation OF
city architect. to promote a uniform system
of architecture in municipal buildings. The
commissions proposals are divided into two
general heads-a plan of thoroughfares,
parks and parkways, and recommendations

Beautifying Cities.

The days through which the country is
passing may some time in the future be
called the beauty period" This will not
be because of the number of beauty adver-
tisements. beauty foods. beauty shows or
working overtime, but because of the atten-
ton being given to the Identification of
cities. OF course. there is a grea, deal more
talk about Identification than actual work
along these lines. yet a good deal of beau
tifcaton Is going on throughout the land,
and foundations for mighty achievements
in civic beauty are being laid.
II is not often that one reads a paper
from any town or city that does not con-
tain an editorial or a news article about
some plan or some scheme to enhance the
attractveness Of the place. The same good
arguments are made. 1t is always said that
the improvement will cost money. but that
IL will be worth the price, and that civic
beauty pays dividends In health. content
and in increase OF population and land
values.
Antiquarians who come after US win point
to this time as the period when there was
a marked awakening to the Importance of
pulchritude in cities. They will probably
say that up to the close of the nineteenth
century the Americans considered almost
any sort OF a town fit to live in II they could
make enough money so they could go away
to spend IL. But about this time, the future
historian win continue. there came upon the

The Fifty-Ninth Congress.

The Fifty Ninth Congress, whose life ends
at noon tomorrow, has made some impor-
tant history. Its first session was fun OF
storm and stress, and its second. while
shorter and tanner. has not been duh or
unfruitful 1t has been jeered at as a
Roosevelt body, and il has yielded good
deal to White House pressure. but still II
has in many things shown will of its own,
and is leaving a name of its own. 1t VIII
be remembered long time.
The appropriations are large in total, and
much for the moment will be made of that
Somehow the country seems TO like the
comedy of criticism on that point. 1t Is
always forthcoming No matter which
party has voted and stands responsible for
the money. the other is certain to condemn
the sum total. In this way each party has
its innings as an economist-with its mouth
As a matter of fact we are big country,
engaged in big things, and it takes big
money TO make such a mare go. And TINS
fact is easily established. For, notwith-
standing the clatter that follows the end OF
a Congress on the subject of extravaganza,
1t is speedily forgotten. and the very next
Congress passes upon the estimates IN q
liberal spirit. The cheeseparer never wins.
What is called GENERALIZATION has been
prominent in several measures The rail-
road rate law and the meat inspection law
are both in point. And yet both of those
measures had the support of men repre-
senting the sections where the policy of
state rights is loudly championed on the
stump. The south wanted the railroads
and the meat packers curbed as did the
north. east. and west. In that question the
country was as one. and the people APP
prove the legislation enacted. They Will
stand for something further even in that
line IL necessary to "shackle the cunning
which for so long abused its privileges at
the public expense.
Some very worthy measures failed, and
the next Congress will be asked to pass
upon them. 1t is hard TO say il the pros
poets are bright. The presidential election
will overshadow everything else, and while
the advantages now are plainly with the
republicans they may not remain so. Dame
Fortune sometimes cuts startling capers in
few months. The first session of the
Sixtieth Congress will be steered by the
presidential chart, and no great risks will
be taken. With Mr.. Fairbanks presiding
In the Senate and Mr. Cannon in the
House-both presidential aspirants-every-
thing will be closely scrutinized.

RESIGN Quick! Gladstone!

The sympathy of the civilized world, as
ueu as that mart of the world which has
not taken to drink, should be poured out
to Home Secretary Gladstone of Great
Britain. If any man ever stood In neeo
of an outpouring of helpful and sustaining
thoughts. there he stands! TO be opposed
by an army of men equipped with all the
hideous slaughter devices of modern war
is nothing compared to the strain to be put
upon this man Gladstone.
The following cable from London hints
at the sad, sad story:
THE thousands of women of all ages
who under the name of barmaidS, tend q
large proportion of the saloon and restau-
rant bars in this country, are angrlly ex-
cited at the prospect of their occupation
being compulsorily closed to women. A
bill has been introduced in the house OF
commons with the object of making the
tending of bars illegal for all women ex-
cept publicans' wives. and daughters. and
empowering the authorities to refuse a
license unless men only are employed. The
wrath of the barmaids for the moment is
chiefly conferred on Home Secretary Glad
stone, who. replying to an abolition depu-
tarion headed by the bishop of Southwark,
condemned the employment Of women In
bars"
The gist of this story lies in the following
terrifying lines:
THE barmaids propose to send deputa-
ton to Mr. Gladstone forthwith to tell him
what they think of him."
Will they proceed to such an extremity
