The February Building Record

The shortest month Of the year. just closed broke tine buildfug record Phoenix with thirty eight permits for buildings of an aggregate esti- mated cost of than z121ooo. Only one month in the building history of Phoenix excels it. that was the month when the permit for the Hotel Adams was granted By more than loo per cent Was the corresponding month of last year sur passed and thought that that was a very good month.
 We have had many months when We thought that Phoenix Was building rapidly but there was never any month in which preparation was made for such activity as we shall shortly witness
 The story ot the breaking of the record, which is told elsewhere in The Republican this morning is mot the whole story. IL is confined within the cor uorate limits. Much building, more, believe shan ever before. is going on in the new additions which are essentially parts of the city, enjoying all. its couveuiences and are yet without the jurisdiction of the building Inspector. that have record of the volume of buiding
 The houses being put up in the additions are. per Eaps on average, more costly and of better character than those being erected within the city limits. of them are building under restrictions think. never less than $2.500 and the residents of each additions are wing with those of the other additions create the most attractive residence district
 February is not ordinarily the best month for making building preparations but we cannot com plain the start that it has given the city this year. We only speculate upon the increase of - the activity when We come into what is known as Inc building season We believe that at the end of the year the February record of which we are now hoasting will seem a pitifuI achievement

A Pardon That Game Too Late

Tn the March American Magazine. Brand Whit lock. mayor of TOledo Ohio, tells the story Of some his experiences with Governor Altged of Illinois, who pardoned the anarchists. The criticisms that were heaped upon the governor for pardoning the anarchists was severe that he became very eau tiOus. NhitI0ck was acting the governors sec retary and took up the case of man with the gov crnor, but the governor declined to do anything. giving his reason the following. No will not pardon any more The people opposed to It. They do not believe in mercy. They love re- yenge They want prisoners punished to the last extremity MT WhitlOck goes follows:
 Three four days afterWard l met the gov ernor one morning he passing through the the house, his head bent in habituai abstraction, and seeing me in what seemed always some subconscious way he stopped and said:
 oh, by the way that pardon case you spoke of the other morning-I somewhat nasty fear and hUmOT If yOuu get the papers I'll see what be done.
 T knew of course what could be done, and knew then that it would be done, and l made haste to get the papers which had been kept on my desk awaiting that propitious season which had the faith feel would come sooner or later, though I had not expected it to quite so soon as that already anticipated the gladness that would light up Brennan's good Irish face when handed him the pardon for his friend, and could dramatze the scene in that miners cottage in BraidWood when the pardoned boy flew into his mothers arms. intended to say nothing Brennan then how ever. wait until the pardon, signed and sealed could be delivered into his hands. l was going the hall to the governors cham bers I encountered Brennan, and of course could not hold back the good news. And so l told him, looking into his blue eyes to behold the first ripple of the smile expected spread over his face; bat there was smile. He regarded me quite sobery. shook his head. and said:
 late now.
 And he drew from his pocket telegram, and without any need read it said, He died last night
 'I took the papers back and had them filed away among those that had been finally dis posed though that formality could not dispose of the case for me. The governor waiting for the papers, and last when the morning had al- most worn away l his chambers to add another burden to that heavy load which had thought it was to be my day tighten the doing of act of grace and pity. l told him he alone at his desk, and the shade of sorrow deepened moment his pale face; but he said nothing, and I glad to go."

Sunken Garden

An Italian landscape gardner, Signor Franschecci, arrived at Tucson the other day to consult with Walter Douglas, general manager for Phelps, Dodge & Co, in the southwest regarding the sunken gardens with which the handsome passenger depot and grounds the Fl Paso and Southwestern are to be embelished.
 It is proposed to create beauty spot in what is al present a rather unprepossessing section of the city and it will doubt excite emulation whose effect will be for many blocks around Real estate that vicinity will take values
 On the other side the town the Southern Pacific has a passenger depot and office building the handsomest and most striking, costly along that line in the west. The locality how ever does not lend itself to sunken gardens which now uppennost the minds of Phoenicians who naturally inquire why railroad lines do surround their depots here with sunken gardens.
 We do not kHow precisely what sunken gar den is but it must be something worth while; other wise the Fl Paso and Southwestern whose gifts usually princey, would present to Tucson
 An objection may be raised by those who are narrow -mindedIy consistent that a sunken garden any Identification of the landscape appurtenant either of railroad depots would give congruous effect, something like mural decoration in woodshed. Never mind the incongruity- If Tucson is to have sunken gardens, Phoenix the capital. the beautiful city in the southwest all travellers assert wants sunken gardens.
 The railroads could then whatever in congruity might by building depot fit the surroundings. Give the sunken gardens; We will be satisfied with nothing else first
 We trust that the railroads will give this mat ter serious consideration We believe it would be to their advantage and know that it would be to the advantage of Phoenix The railroad depots and their general surroundings give the stranger visiting Phoenix for the first time, favorable impression. He gets that when he the paved and brilliantly lighted streets and he leaves Phoenix with an impression that the rall- unworthy of town; that they tagging behind it.
 If the roads would agree upon handsome ion depot with suitable surroundings, we would rot, after alL strenuously insist upon the sunken gar dens Anything modern that would comport with
