The popular significance Of a word runs far beyond its literal

,auuu i,asons are gwen to account FOR the loss, but the main
contention is that the building is too large and entails needless
expense. Perhaps it may be found that the whole scheme has been
carried out upon a scale too %grandiose in every way-that there might
have been a better artistic a s well as a better financial result had
there been less effort at m~agnifcence and magnitude.
Once upon a time n certain German Duke undertook to set
up n new theatre in his home town, Weimar. lie did not spend
much money on the building nor on the scenery. But he got Goethe
and Schiller to write plays for him. There is no record that he
lost money.

The interesting point in the discussion Owe tho issue is the
revelation that the business world looks forward to a speedy coming
of the time when the whole Manhattan frontage on the Hudson
will be needed for commerce. This is n forecast that Riverside Drive
like Fifth avenue Of to-day and the Battery Of Yesterday, will pass
from residences to trade. Wealth in search Of mn exclusive quarter
will have to go elsewhere.
But where? Brooklyn is growing and so is Harlem and the

The President and Congress.

Justice Van Orsdel Of the District Court
Of Appeals is unduly alarmed about the
state Of the country. with reference to
the Presidents call Of an extra session
for the purpose OF acting upon the Cana
dian reciprocity agreement There is no
general feeling OF apprehension, nor are
the people asleep to the danger Of execu-
tive usurpation. There is nothing abnor-
NAL or unprecedented about this situa-
ton. Extra sessions have been called be-
fore for specific purposes. Indeed. Presi-
dent Taft called one only two years ago
to put Congress at work without delay
upon the revision Of the tariff. President
Cleveland called one soon after his fnau-
guration in 1893 for the sole purpose Of
repeating the purchasing clause Of the
Sherman silver law. And he accom-
plshed that purpose. against tremendous
opposition, b. diut. IL was not even dis
creetly whispered. of the employment Of
the federal patronage to win recruits
The country welcomed this action. 1t was
in the throes Of a panic and il recog-
nized the perils Of the double monetary
standard. MIR. Cleveland was applauded
for his nerve and even praised for his
use Of patronage to effect his end. The
country still lives and Is the better for
this manifestation Of one mans capacity
to recognize a danger and thwart It,
Hardly a President has sat in the White
House without influencing Congress In
some manner and by some means Some
Presidents have scolded the houses, some
have threatened them, some have simply
held thep to their tasks and made them

The Achievement.

He sought for fame. His life he spent
To rear a fitting monument
Unto his energy and skill.
He cleared the land. He built q mill.
Careless Of comfort and Of health
He called for labor and for wealth.
And soon far Ger the hilltops rang
The echo Of the iron clang;
And men and women gathered round
And childish daughters joyous sound
Was heard amid the mighty din
AS trade and fashion hustled in.
At last he said with pride. Now this
Is truly a metropolis!
Which men Of future days shall see
With deep respect and think Of me-"
The train speeds through. We hear Will
shame
The brakeman mispronounce its name.

And though its office buildings rise
And seem to penetrate the skies,

work. It may be true that the makers of
the Constitution did not contemplate that
the executive should dictate precise
courses OF legislation when they provided
that he should from time to time recon-
mend to the consideration of the houses
such measures as he shall Judge neces-
sary and expedient." But they knew
doubtless perfectly well that 1t would be
but poor President who would merely
content himself with laying his recon-
mendations before Congress and allowing
that body to ignore them. If certain
course OF action is needed and the Presi-
dent firmly believes so he is derelict in
his duty II he does not urge It in strong
terms.
In this Canadian reciprocity matter
President Taft has not in any degree
transgressed the bounds Of propriety. He
laid his message before the two houses
and urged prompt action. There was OPP
portunity for both branches of Congress
to vote. but only one Of them did so. The
President was under a double obligation
to call an extra session, to the people Of
the United States. to whom he is always
responsible for the prosecution Of what
ever he regards as policy for the bene-
fit of the country. and to Canada, whose
representatives he had assured he would
press the agreement for the earliest pos
sible action. He has not attempted to
coerce Congress. He has not played
politics." He gave his own party its
chance to approve the agreement or to
reject it. Failing to obtain either result,
he passes the responsibility to a Congress
composed Of a democratic House and a
republican Senate. He will presumably
repeat his recommendation in as strong
terms as at first, and will hold Congress
in session until it acts squarely upon this
measure. 1t will have the right, as Con-
gress always has had. to disapprove after
debate.

The British Bear Pit.

The British house Of commons has a
reputation as an orderly body which
Il maintains with but few lapses.
Ten years ago 1t had a fit Of Impotence
and passed a few troublous hours under
the shadow Of the mace. with a final
Eruption of police to quell riotous
outbreak Of Ill temper Thursday night
It experienced another flare-up Of par
tisanship. disclosing the sharp feelings
that exist under the cover OF ordinary
parliamentary procedure. An all-night
session in London is perhaps a differ
ent sort Of thing from one of the con-
tinuous performances In Washington
that mark the close OF every session
Of Congress. The cables tell Of ran
corous eruptions of factionalism. a
threat to throw an entire group Of
Legislators out OF the hall. a yell Of
defiance from the Irish benches and
hnal subsistence as the clearer heads Of
the chamber dominated the situation
and prevented Donnybrook fair spec
tacle that would have set the world
a-roaring.
The fact Is. English politics is in a
serioels state Of strain. There Is no
single authority. The liberal coalition
holds power by virtue OF a combina-
tion with the laborites. who are in the
main socialists. and the Irish nation
alists. who are home rulers. In order
10 put through the program II has out
lined. reform Of the lords and budg-
etary reforms involving heavy land
taxes. tho ministry has had to offer
terms 10 widely separated groups Of
allies. The program is in truth being
advanced. and the opposition, the old
tory party. now styled conservative.
working in alliance with the 'tariff re-
formers" or protectionists. Is nettled
by the prospect Of a successful con-
clusion Of the liberal course. To be
sure. the loss Of temper Is a confess
sion II argues despair. But II is not
unnatural in the circumstances. Things
are changing in England. and the out
look is dark for those who hold to the
ancient doctrine. that whatever is. is
right.

If Senator Bailey of Texas reads
