WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-Quick to
appreciate the plea that the fine arts
have been denied that governmental
consideration so universally accorded
by other nations as suggested by the

arts. The object of the council, which
is to consist of architects. painters,
sculptors, landscape architects and
laymen, of which the supervising archi-
tect of the treasury is to be the execu-
tive head, is to advise upon the char
acter and design of all public works
of architecture, paintings. sculpture
all monuments, parks, bridges and
other works of which the art of de-
sign forms an integral part; and to
make suggestions and recommends
tions for the conservation of all his
torical monument.
President Roosevelt cordially invites
the recommendations of architects. He
says he will direct members of his
cabinet to refer to the proposed coun-
ell all matters in their charge en-
bracing architecture, selections of
sites and landscape work, sculpture
and paintings.
The president will Immediately call
upon the council for a report as to the
character and location of the Lincoln
memorial.

Promise of Warm Fight Over

CARSON CITY, New, Jan. 17.-This
city is overfowing tonight with the
law makers of the state and the repre-
sentatives of the numerous organiza-
tions and interests that expect to be
affected by the actions of the legis-
lature, which convenes tomorrow. The
session viii continue so days. Both
house and senate are overwhelmingly
democratic.
It is believed that ]. B. Giffen will
be selected speaker of the house and
George Pine president of the senate
when the majority caucuses, which
may be late tonight The selection of
a presiding officer in the senate is
necessary owing to the fact that the
death OF Governor Sparks has called
Lieutenant Governor Dickerson to the
governors chair.
As it is expected that an effort will
be made to pass an anti gambling law
at the coming session, the agents of
the saloonmen and others who are op-
posed TO the measure have already as
sembled and are prepared to fight it
to finish.
