COURT HOUSE mPROYgmENrs.

Editor Of THE EVENING JOURNAL.
Regarding the articles appearing
from time to time I'm the various news
papers on the subject of Court House.
does it not seem a very late lay for
these people TO come in and make sue-
gestions or offers. This agitation has
been going on for over three years.
and now after the Levy Court has au-
thorized the construction of modern
works and had Wilmington architects
to spend their valuable time and a
great amount of money on a competi-
ton, TO throw the whole transaction
over without any compensation seems
very unfair.
AS tu contracting firm stepping in
and making drawings for the proposed
dual building this is, without eXcep-
ton, wrong on its face.
They WILL OF course make such set
OF drawings that it viii be hard for
competitors to bid against them. aud
IL Is doubtful if any contractors would
care to take the chance, Ii would then
be an easy matter for them as success
ful bidders to handle the work in their
own way. The result might prove to be
a colossal scandal
NOW let TINS be a fair proposition to
all interests concerned, before any
final action is taken let the Levy Court
compensate the competing architects
according to their worth Then. let
there be conducted a competition for
the new building under the code Of the
American Institute of Architects con-
hning it to architects of New Castle
county and compel the winner of the
competition if need be, to employ a
consulting architect of some reputa-
ton on this class of work to guide him
in its construction.
There is good talent in this city. Let
us develop it.

said like the New Jerusalem, New Will
mington would be clean, beautiful,
everybody would have a chance, and
gold would be used for street paving
instead Of worshipped He said the idea
was old-fashioned. that people should
wait until they went to heaven for re-
forms. that heaven should now be
brought to earth, and the duty OF every
citizen was to bring it TO earth in his

work for the community and cared
only 10 save their own sOuls,>were on
the way to the bottomless pit, said the
speaker
Or Batten said Wilmington was very
attractive I'm many ways, but even
Des Moines could be improved. He
suggested for Wilmington a definite
plan instead of haphazard reform He
said everybody ought to go to work at
once to find out the facts about their

The speaker said the city had only
itself TO blame If it's children went
wrong. because instead of realizing
that its children were it's most value |
able asset, it distinctly did not want
them. would give them no places to /
play and did not want TO rent houses

Dr. Batten emphasized Fairgrounds, |
saying they should not be two or three /
