WASHINGTON, March 26-Lots of
the almost "time-expired" Congress-
men were we'll aware before the close
| of the last session that mighty few of
the many costly public buildings auth
orized in public buildings bill could
be begun before the next couple OF
| years, and that's the real reason OF
their remarkable c~omplacency when
Burnett, the doughty little Alabam-
ian, told them they'd have no show in
that measure for a ley Federal Rost
| Office or Customs House in their home
towns. On the other hand, not a few
of their colleagues were practically
unaware of the situation, caused solely
by the congested at the crowded Off
ices of the U. S. Supervising Archi-
tect of the Treasury Department; and
as a result. now that they have learn
d the truth they are furious, because
they assured their respective con-
stituents that the dignity and splend-
i'd architectural proportions OF the new
and handsome Federal structures,
built with uncle Sans money at their
especial instance. would before long
dignity and beautify their cities and
towns, and at the same time greatly
enhance the values of surrounding
real estate property.
Now when they find beyond all
doubt whatever that there is but little
prospect of the construction Of such
buildings being commenced within the
coming two years they are mad all
over, and there is every possibility
that they will gladly join hands with

STORMS AND r

Washington Star: Owing to
the fact that overhead wires
are still maintained throughout
the greater part of the country as a
mean Of electric communication the
very conditions that cause a demand
upon them for the transmission of in
telligence render them unserviceable.
Here is the visitation of Omaha, and
other cities in the west by cyclonic
storms Of terrible intensity, causing
the death of hundreds of people and
at the same time carrying down the
telegraph and telephone wires. Con-
%sequently, for hours the country waits
for information regarding the extent
of the disaster, with widely exagger-
ated reports in circulation to increase
the apprehension of the people and
with ne means readily available
verify or correct these alarming state.
ments. If, in the light of past expert.
ences, precautions had been taken to
bury the wires, there would be no oc-
casion for failure to know the exact
conditions. Four years ago Washing
ton was in this manner isolated from
the world, with the exception Of a
single wire to the south, at the time
of the Inauguration of President Taft,
and it is gratifying that in this case
at least the warning thus given was
needed, SO that on the recent occasion
of President Wilson's Inauguration
there were conduit connections be-
tween Washington and the north for
use in case of emergency. Reliance
upon wireless telegraphy is unsafe.
a wireless plant requires a consider
able installation, which may be easily
disarranged in the event OF a storm,
whereas a buried cable can be worked
with q small equipment, which in case
Of need can be quickly improyised. In

communication, through the falling OF
telegraph and telephone lines, there
should be an immediate movement on
the par Of the telegraph and railroad
companies to establish %conduits, SO
that in case Of emergency there will
always be in all parts of the country
at least single lines to be relied upon
for at least bulletin transmission.

BALKANS AND THE POWERS

Minneapolis Journal: The Powers
have handed to the Balkan allies the
terms OF final settlement with Turkey.
These provide a boundary in Thrace
somewhat more westward than that
the allies have proposed, and refuse
any money indemnity. AS the Porte
surrenders about all its European ter
ritory, an indemnity may well be con
sidered s%uperhuous, while it IS not re-
ally essential just how much territory
IS to remain Turkish around Constan-
tinOple.
But the Powers reserve the DISPOSE
ton of the Aegean Islands, and insist
upon the creation of IN Albanian prin-
cipality at Austria's demand. The
first is a blow at Greece, while the
second will preserve a cause of dis
cord and a pretext for intervention
The settlement of 1878 was no set
Element, although it allowed time for
the ley Balkan States to grow till
they could enforce a real settlement.
Europe in 1913, as in 1878, is forced to
sacrifice the highest interest of the
Balkans to the preservation of her
own peace.
Eut if the temporal exigency justi-
fies a temporal expediency, it is a de-
fusion to suppose that anything short
of the complete exclusion of the Turk
from Europe can effect a permanent
peace. Retention of some Of the Ae.|
gean Isles Or occupation Of some Of
the strategic one by the Great Pow
ers, moreover, can be nothing less
than a great injustice to the Greek ma.
ton.
The lesson to the Balkan peoples
is obvious. In proportion to their un-
ion and force will they obtain Justice.
They never will receive justice as a
hoon from a benevolent Europe. When
they are too strong to be dispossess-
ed, their aspirations will be respected.
In other words, they must work out
their own destiny.
Austria is their foe, as she was the
foe Of Italian nationality-of German
unity. But Austria cap be foiled now,
as before, provided Bulgar, Greek and
Sero hang together Iesolutely.

TO THE CITIZENS OF BISMARCK:

~ TIE VII IZGNS VI DION AnNN {.
Since becoming a candidate for pres
ident OF the city commission | have
been asked so often as to my view
upon the subjects hereinafter men
toned, tnat | have decided to make
this announcement.
| believe that a public office is a
public trust and that the officer is the
master; that it is the duty OF the Off
Ger to administer the office according
to law.
| also believe in publicity in public
affairs, so that the public may know
what their servants are doing in mat
tcrs OF public concern, and how their
moneys are expended, and their inter-
ests taken care of, and believe that
the proceedings of the city commits
sioners should be published for this
reason.
further believe in lower rates of
public utilities, particularly the wa
ter and light rates. The natural ad-
Vantages OF Bismarck are such that
both the water system and the light
plant are so constructed that it is far
cheaper to operate and maintain the
same than those of any other city in
the state, yet the charges for both
water and light are higher in Bis
marck than in any other city in the
state Of the same class. | have cor.
responded with such cities as Fargo,
Grand Forks, Minot, jamestown, Val
ley City, Devils Lake, Williston, Dick.
inson and Harvey, as well as others,
and in all of these cities | find that
the rates are lower than at Bismarck.
would, therefore, favor an investi-
cation Of the charters of these corpor-
ations and if the same can legally be
done, have the rates reduced.
| believe in economy and efficiency
in public service, and am opposed to
the unnecessary and useless expense
in the manner. of improving and main
tanning our streets as exenplifed by
the policy of the present commission.
1T seems to me a useless expense to
haul snow away from the streets dur
ing the spring months when the same
would thaw and run off into water in
about "a hours If left in the streets.
Neither a | see any benefit to the
people of the city in paying a man a
large monthly salary, to do nothing
but guard the City Dump.
| am also opposed to the vacillat-
ing and indecisive policy of the pres
ent board of commissioners as illus
trated Nby their conduct in reference
to the City Auditorium, voted by the
people of Bismarck; and believe that
in such matters, the wishes of the ma
jority of the people should control.
am also opposed to the police force
Of Bismarck as now constituted and
believe that this department should
be thoroughly r%eorganized and that a
reorganization of the same is impera-
tive in interest of the public good.
| believe in equal taxation and am
opposed to allowing anybody special
privileges.
On these as we'll as all other ques-
tons pledge myself if elected to rep
resent the people to the best OF my
ability.
! respectfully ask your support.
