The Architects Good Work.

Two declarations made by the
American Institute of Architects at
the opening of its annual session
yesterday have special interest for
the nation.
First is the statement that by
subscriptions then reported the in
etitute has completed payment for
the Octagon House, at the corner Of
Eighteenth street and New York
avenue. Aside from specific histor-
zeal associations which attach TO
this building visits TO it by
Washington, the residence there Of
President Madison after the Capitol
was burned, and the signing there
of the Treaty Of Ghent-it is a fine
survival of the life led in America
by a representative patriot family
during the first quarter century Of
the nations history.
Second is the Endorsement of the
bill now pending before Congress to
create a national art commission.
On such a subject almost no other
body could speak with so much au-
thority and it is probably safe to
say that no other corps of men
more fully appreciates the need for
such legislation.
Washington is in the making. It's
monuments as well as its buildings
should express the highest ideals of
the American people. At present
they do not. The bill introduced by
the National Society of the Fine
Arts would go far to- prevent the
erection Of any more eye-sores. 1t
ought to pass without delay-and it
is good to know il win have the ac-
tive support of the American In
stitute of Architects.

Make Him Welcome.

America hears with interest and a
genuine desire to be helpful that
the fourth of Kaiser Wilhelm's
quiverful of sons is 10 be sent to
this country for the purpose of cur
ing him OF socialism.
The need appears To be great. We
are told that the prince has given
his father considerable cause for
thought tie refused the opportun-
ity of entering the army which the
Emperor especially desired to be
made the career of his son. and eX-
pressed himself as determined to
pursue the study of economic and
sociological questions. While he
sVas a student of Bonn University
he was found among the set Of stu
dents who criticised the existing
state of things in the country with
youthful fervor.
OF course such acts as these are
utterly Inconsistent with that cor
rectness of political view that
Should mark young man who may
one day become ruler OF some sort
of a German kingdom or the hus-
band of some more important
Queen.
g But why the republican United
States? may be asked. The Berlin
tdea is ito combat the sociaHstic
trend of the young princes mind
by allowing him TO observe for him
self how far from a socialistic basis
is the famous democracy of Amer
lea, which is considered in Europe
generally as the farrhest advance in
'rule by the people"
e. We should welcome this sprig of
royalty who carries in himself the
potentially of governing. and show
him thoroughly the workings of the
best government on the face Of the
earth, no matter whether what he
learns shall prove hostile to his
,sire's views of divine rights or not.
AS a matter of fact, we believe a So
journ of six months in this country
would be far more of an inspiration
10 heresy than all the teachings Of
the socialists in his own land.
There he would probably recover
quickly from the attack. with no
harm done his royal system. Here
he VIII see how futile and needless
is the imperial pomp and power as
concerning the welfare of a nation.
Here he viii find the truest and only
genuine socialism, that which recog-
nizes the rights of an the people and
the brotherhood of man.

~ illuminatiye. The statement Is
from very carefully prepared com
pilation of the commission. Its ac-
euraey has never been questioned.
Mr.. Borland says il is misleading.
But why?
Because, he explains, safety APP
phances were intended for the pre-
vention of accidents to trainmen.
They have small bearing o.. the
safety of passengers. The safety
appliance law was enacted primA rily
10 end the slaughter Of trainmen In
coupling accidents. And, he argues,
.it has accomplished much. lie quotes
figures ON coupling accidents 10
prove his point,
The Times, unlike Mr.. Borland,
holds no brief for any particular
class of people endangered by rail-
road travel. 1t does not consider
that one method of killing them is
especially better than another. Mr..
Borland points out that the number
of people killed in coupling acct
dents has been reduced since the
safety appliance law passed. But
he does not question The Times
statement that more people are be-
ing killed, in the aggregate, than
ever before; both passengers and
employees.
From carefully prepared statistics
of the Interstate Commission The
Times article from which Mr.. Bor-
land quotes, gave this additional
statement:
Further than this, in 1885 one employe
M every AS on the railroads OF the
tLlteu states was killed, and one IN
every thlTty-one was injured In 1894
uLe eLlplcye IN every 35l Was killed, and
one IA every nineteen was injured. That
Is. the average employee had about G.; Der
cent more chance OF being killed and 25
per cent more chance OF being Injured
uhuer me operation OF the safety ar
pilahce law than before
1t does not seem TO The Times
very important whether people are
Hlled coupling ears, or because en-.
Gineers run past signals. The fact
IS that more of them arr being
Killed year by year. and that despite
saIety Lpplian6 es, block signals, air
brakes on freight trains. etc. Mr..
cortland furnishes a good argument
lor more saf~ty Legislation, for he
shows that where legislation has en-
tered into IN" problem, there partial
solution has been secured in a re-
duetion Of the casualty list. That
seems an excellent argument for
more legislation. touching other
dangers of the road.

there Is a wealth Of entertainment in

ait. Oleott in his new play is the same
handsome. graceful. dashing Young
IFishman that the public has seen IN his
Terence and his Edmund Burke" OF
former seasons, but his humor Is so in
fectious and his good spirits so con-
tagious that the spectators forget. or
rather remember only with pleasure.
that they have seen the same character
with slightly different enyirons on for
mer occasions.

would be as entertaining. provided that
