gAlJJJTOy At WASHINGTON.

We have more than once earnestly approved
the organization of a national movement for
the erection of a national memorial to Alex
ander Hamilton at the national capital. II Is
pleasure now 10 urge the execution, at the
earliest date compatible with the highest
artistic ana technical achievement, Of 4 work
which has been far too long delayed and the
non-performauce of which has been a reproach.
The city Of Washington is pretty thickly dotted
with statues and monuments but after more
than hundred years 1t still lacks any suitable
memorial of the man who most deserves such
recognition.
Hamilton above all other men, should he COM
memorated al Washington; and Washington,
above all other places. should he the site OF
the nations chief memorial to him That,
I'm the naTroweSt local sense is because there
would presumably never have been any such
city as Washington or any District of Colum-
bia had il not been for him. In a broader and
loftier sense it is because the national capital
concretely typifies and betokcns the supreme
achievement Of that constructive statesmans
genius. He was. beyond rivalry, the founder Of
the national idea as distinguished from that
of a mere confederation or league, and he was
the chief author Of the Constitution which made
these states nation. The visible and outward
sign Of that nationality Is seen in the national
capital and federal district the one consid-
cradle area within the bounds Of the Union de
signed 10 belong forever and exclusively to the
whole nation through It's federal government.
The distinguished historian and student of
men and affairs who now represents the British
government in this country has authOrtatively
described Hamilton as "One of universal his
t0ryS exceptional and brilliant men whose
genius is worked into the very body and tissue
of American institutions; and as the greatest
constructive statesman Of the nation" That
Judgment is the general judgment of the world.
II would he grave discredit To America If it
neglected the present opportunity TO secure a
worthy memorial or let the present well-cOn-
ceyed effort lag. The national Congress has

remains for the people to supply the super

HOME RVLE TETOES.

With six vetoes on Wednesday and several
more earlier in the week the Mayor is exercising
a potent influence on legislation affecting the
city His veto messages moreover, have been
strikingly succnct and judicious. Whatever
NAV have been the merits of the bills rejected
in general they seem to have been well intended
the Mavor has succeeded in putting in a few
words an objection To each of them which must
have struck the average reader as perfectly
sound Thus the Cassidy committee Dill pro
vidinc for expert accounts was vetoed because
superfuous: that prohibiting the issue of as
sessment bonds because such legislation would
stand in the way of the construction of subWays
by assessment ON property benefited
The power TO veto local bills which the con-
stitution gives the Mayor is real factor III IN
sllring home rule. because so many OF them
come to the Mayor after the adjournment OF
the Legislature. While the Legislature is III
session a mere majority Is sufficient 10 pass n
bill over his veto But after adjournment his
veto is final.
That the operation of the provision was fully
foreseen has been doubted, but on the whole 1t
has proved useful. and is now seen to be dis
tinct stride toward local self government. Cities
however. are still far from having all the au'
thority they should have to direct their own

would if enacted into law. result in more real
local Sef-government. When a new constitution
has TO be adopted in this state perhaps it will
be possible to provide for greater legislative
power for localities and for restrictions on the
authority of the Legislature to modify the
framework of local organization. In this way
the temptation to constant interference from
Albany would be removed and the need of con-
slant appeals from the city 10 Albany would be

Megantic will not be ready for service for sew

technical weekly of high standing. that on

gave promise of realizing the hopes entertained
regarding them. but it is wise to wait for exact
returns such as will he obtainable only when

The combined weight of the two reclprocat-

said to be greater than that Of the machinery To

that the excess will be offset by the greater
lightness Of the Laurentics boiler plant. H.
then. there should be apprecabe reducnoh
in coal consumption. the Laurentic would nave

is why the result Of the White Star company

I NOBILITY N NATLGATION.

\ steamer in whose machinery engineers and
steamship owners will take a special interest
has just made her first voyage across the At
antic The Laurentic built for the Canadian
service of the White Star Line, is provided with
three screws, the outer being driven by
reciprocating engines and the middle one 10y
turbine. The reciprocating engines take the
steam from the boilers first, partly expand 1t,
and then pass it along TO the turbine for its
final work The former operate only at high
pressureS and the latter operates only at a low
pressure Thus are harnessed together two
types of engine which have hitherto been re-
garded as rivals.
This remarkable combination. effected ms an
experiment was suggested by the fact that
turbine consumes little more steam FOR each
horsepower it generates when propeing a slow
vessel than when used for ''fiers." Indications.
however. have been afforded that n turbine is
more economical when working at low than at
high pressures Mr.. Parsons. the first inventor
to adapt this type of engine to marine service,
recognizes the difference, though he may not
have been the first to discover ii. At any rate
It IS significant that the White Star company
has not cared 10 follow the example Of the
CWam company, attaching more Importance
to economy than to speed. DESTROYS, however
of getting what benefit IL could from the tur
bne. and perhaps the advice of the great
Belfast firm which has constructed most of It's
ships the White Star company gave an order
nearly two years ago for a vessel with such
machinery the Laurentics. and capable of
travelling at a speed of sixteen knots.
Whether or not there is any advantage in
dividing the work and giving the turbine q
share can best be determined by q comparison
of the steam consumption Of the T.aurentic with
that of her sister ship. the Megantic. which is
to rely Oh reciprocating engines alone. The
