elashed In 1905, with stats Senator
James P. McNichol, political boss, on
one side, and p. G. Gibbofey, inde-
pendent Democratic candidate for dis
trict attorney, on the other. AS the
district attorneyship is regarded po-
l1tically as the most important office
outside of the mayoralty, this is re-
garded as contest of greater impor-
tance than that of four years ago,
when the Republican organization
was defeated by $4,000 majority.
The contest in San Francisco is sim
liar in many respects to that in Phil
adelphia. The fight hinges on the
district attorneyship, with the contin-
uation of the graft prosecution as the
most prominent issue. District Attor-
ney Francis J. Heney, who conducted
the graft prosecution, is a candidate
for reelection. He is opposed by
Charles M. Fickert, who was nomi-
mated on the Republican and Union
Labor tickets. William Crocker is
running for mayor on the Republican
ticket and DR.. T. w. B. Leland is the
Democratic candidate. The Union La
Dor party has its own mayoralty can
didate.
Mayor Tom L. Johnson, Of Cleve-
land, is candidate for his fifth con-
secutive term, and is opposed by Her
man c. Baehr, the Republican candi-
date. In Cincinnati an interesting
contest is on for the mayoralty be-
tween DR.. Louis Schwab Republican)
and John Weld Peck (Democrat).
Mayoralty contests in other cities of
Ohio and in New York and New Jersey
present more or less interesting fea-
lures. Boston does not elect a may
or, but the voters will decide upon
the choice of two plans looking to
non-partisan government Topeka

commission form of government.

ART In CHICAGO
There They See the Beginning of National American School

There has grown up in Chicago
since her phoenixlike resurrection
from almost overwhelming disaster a
sturdy group of strong artists whose
honest endeavor, persevering luck and
devotion to their calling have given
them claim to something higher than
praise appreciation. These men and
women-painters, architects, sculp-
tors, designers-in expressing their
own feeling about the things that sur,
round them are laying a foundation
that very strongly suggests the begin
ming of national American art.
In receiving patronage and support
the artists Of Chicago have been de-
servedly fortunate. Only few years
ago, for instance, the late Benjamin
F. Ferguson bequeathed the sum of
81, 100000 as a fund whose interest is
to be expended on monuments and
sculpture commemorating famous
American men and women and evente
in American history, all these works
to be placed on the boulevards and
elsewhere in Chicago.
Then, public interest In art matters
Is so great that nearly every one Of
the many clubs for the advancement
of culture offers substantial prize
each year for the best work exhibited
By Chicago artists. Probably there

REMODELED OLD CUSTOM louise BECOMES
HOME OF THE LARGEST BANK IN AMERICA

The National City Bank of New
York, the largest banking institution
in America, has moved into its new
building on Wall street.
1t Is necessary to go to some of the
great central government banks of
Europe to find an institution whose
resources compare with those of the
National City bank. It's total assets
recently touched the record figures
of $372,849,000, sum sufficient to nay
of the national debts of Mexico and
all the Central American countries.
A few months previous the cash re-
serve of this institution was nearly
$500, 100000. Early in November gross
deposits touched the high figure of
$3oS,77s,oO0.
A year ago the old custom house.
which entirely occupies a city block
on lower Wall street, was turned over
to the bank. The interior was CON-
pletely removed, but the granite walls
with the familiar ionic columns,
were left practically untouched. The
architects solved the problem of rails
ing the structure four stories and con-
Verting it into modern banking
domicile without changing the build
1ng's architectural character and ira
dition.
The entire lower section is given
over to a great banking chamber,
whose ceiling is sixty feet high; it is
eighty-three feet to the top of the GEN.

doors on the Wall street portal are
the largest in the world. There is

nothing In the way of balconies or
passageways to mar the open effect Of
this huge domed chamber. The char
acter of this interior is that of ex-
IRENE simplicity and the whole color
scheme is monotone.
The great armor plate safe, weigh
ing 300 tons is in the center of the
building, and it is bare of disguise or
ornament. The architects frankly
treated it as a great strongbox. In
cidentally, this huge safe has certain
twentieth century safety features,
most striking of which is a system Of
piping for live steam designed to
quickly parboil any misguided person
bent upon burglary.
All messengers pass to and from
a distinct department in the base
ment, a department store carrier, and
pneumatic tube service expedite the
handling of $4,000 checks daily, cable
and telegraph communication is d.
rect-these are a few of the ideas
borrowed from other banks. The
banks 400 employees will fare we'll
with their own kitchens and dining
rooms, and great assembly room for
conference and social purposes. There
is even provisions for miniature roof
garden, and there is also an unob-
structed encircled promenade, extend
ing around the roof.
The National City bank is Just four
years short of the century mark as
regards age. At the time of it's forma-
ton, in 1872, there were eight other
banks in New York, whose total cap
italization was $7,552,76O.
