VIENNA, February 5.-The Duchess
of Hohenberg. morganatic wife of the
Archduke Francis Ferdinand, heir to
the ducal throne, attended d court ball
in Vienna last week for the first time.
\ curious arrangement was made for
her highness s entrance into the ball
room
The procession Of the imperial fam
lily into the hall was led by the en-
per0r and the Archduchess Maria An
nunziata At the end of the process
sion came the junior members of the
family. each gentleman escorting two
ladies. The last trio consisted Of Prince
Louis of SaXe-Coburg with the Arch
duchess Isabella on his right arm and
the Duchess of Hohenberg on his left.
The contrast between the two ladies
was most striking. The archduchess,
who is only just twenty years old. wore
"A short dress of pink tulle and looked
hardly more than a child. The Duchess
Of IIohenberg, who is twenty-five years
her senior. is a woman of most impos
ing presence, and would be Immediately
noticed for her distinguished appearance
in any society.
The emperor spoke to the duchess
at some length during the evening, and
when she dropped her fan the monarch
stopped to pick it up. The duchess,
however. smIinglv anticipated the ac-
tion of the aged emperor and picked it
up herself.

appearance was the chief feature, was

Letters From
The People
LIBRARY SITE.

The choice of location for a public
building should be made primarily
with reference to the nature and func-
ton of the institution. Cheapness,
availability, convenience-such consid
erations are relevant but secondary
1t would be unwise to settle upon
building lot for the territorial library
without careful inquiry as to the quail
ties that make a piece of property fit
for such an institution. As foremost
among such qualities 1 would call at
tention to the following:
/. Cleanliness. The bugbear of
library management is dust. It in
.iures buildings and equipment, shell
tiers vermin, and increases Immensely
the cost of upkeep. Particularly in
this land of prolific insect life it is
important that a library be located in
spot as free from dust as can be
found
.. Quiet. Quiet is an essential of
library atmosphere. Whether one
reading or for serious research work
he desires first Of all a spot restfuI and
free from distraction. 1t is of small
avail TO spend funds on. cork carpet,
| rubber-tipped chairs. noiseless hinges
and ''siIent' signs if the windows of
the building open Immediately upon
thoroughfares Of activity and business
! traffic
3. Light. The real economy in
| library construction consists in max
ing every possible square foot of wall
space available for the shelving Of
books and every square foot of floor
| space suitable for the placing OF
| tables, racks and eases. This means
| that all rooms should be freely ana
| uniformly supplied with natural light
The added economy in terms of human
| eycsight here involved scarcely needs
| argument.
In view of these considerations il
/ is possible to lay down certain gen
eral propositions with regard TO the
matter at issue. The site for library
| should be on the wigdward and there
| fore mauka side of the street-this eS
| pcciaIly in view of the fact that road
sprinkling is not general in Honolulu
| 1t should be large enough TO allow
| placing Of the building Wei away
from the street and property lines, II
| order that the structure may be iso
| lated from the noises OF the thorough
fare and protected from any building
! encroachment which would be likely
to shut off light. Furthermore it i
highly desirable that a library shoulC
| stand on q lot of its own,
1t is admitted that a fit lot nigh
not be as cheap or as central as SOM
| others that have been suggested 4
| regards cost, however, 1t would seen
that in this community the small
monetary difference involved SHOULD
not stand between the trustees and a
| appropriate site. AS to central loca
ton the objection could readily b
solved by the opening Of hranc
reading room in the business district
As. large and important an institution
as the Library of Hawaii should no
be embarrassed by cramped or insult
able quarters.

pressed at the recent gathering Of tn,
editors at Caldwell, and the legal wis
dom of Attorney General McDougall
corroborate each other as to the re-
medal action necessary to make the
Idaho direct primary law convenient,
sane and practical. Mr.. McDougall
says; The basic principles are right,
hut need polishing off," That is what
the editors say also. He thinks the
second choice feature should be abro-
gated; that a definite time should be
fixed for the candidates expense &C

be compelled TO vote their own party

primary should be held earlfer in the

the difficulty. He has shifted the
point of elasticity, which formerly
consisted of metal spring plates under

( In view of the change which the re
cent election win make In the con-
troll OF congress, by the passing OF
the house over into the hands Of the
democrats, and the consequent dis
cussion Of past congress -ional control
which has followed, a few facts will
no doubt be interesting at this time.
The control of the house has been
pretty evenly divided between the
two dominant parties during the past
thirty years; beginning with 1877 and
ending with 1913 Democrats had ma
jorties ranging from nine votes to
14S, during the sessions they ruled.
The congress fiom 1875 to 1877 had a
Democratic majority of 81. In the
next two years they had a majority
of only nine and two years following
this they Increased 1t to 10. Begin
ming with the year 1881 the Republic
ans had am Inning of two years, but
they lost this back when In 1883 the
democrats got control again with a
majority of a.
Two years later the democrats won
| 10 more seats, but in 1887 the repub-
licans made gains and cut down the
democratic majority to Is. Two
years later the republicans won con
trol of the house. which they kept
during the years 1890 and 1891.
The greatest landslide ever known
for the democratic party was I'M 1891
when Cleveland was triumphant The
grand old party had but SS represen-
tatives to the democrats 236 and the
democratic majority reached the scan
dalous total OF t4S Immediately they
began to lose ground and the next two
years showed the democratic control
only 81.
This termof 1893 to 1895 marked
the end of the democratic congress
sional era. From that time to the
present matter of Is years, the
republicans held control, with Joseph
Cannon welding the gavel. Next
labors, democrats will once more be
In control with a majority of ga. The
present status of the house Is 217 re

congress will be 227 democrats, 16s

ist
1t will do the democrats good to gel
tryout: they have been squelched 8
long time, Is years and now they
have a chance to work ON party
pledges and make or mar their repu
tation.
Some of the friends of Uncle jos
Cannon would have us, believe hi
foresaw the landslide, because wher
asked along In the spring IL he woult
aspire to be speaker of the mex
house, he replied with wink; II
you're going to make hare pie
