New York, was decided upon as the
seat of government for ten years.
on December q. 1890, the third ses-
sion of the first Congress met in the
hall, the first Speaker of the House OF
Representatives being Frederick Au-
gustus Muhlenberg. George Washing
ton was inaugurated in the hall on
March f. 1893. and in ii he delivered
his Farewell Address. John Adams
was inaugurated as the second Presi-
dent OF the United States within its
walls. and Thomas Jefferson was there
sworn in as Vice President
The old structure has been restored
to almost its original appearance after
years OF patient efforts on the part OF
architects, who searched all existing
records to make the building look as IL
did when Washington delivered his
Farewell Address within its walls.

that the law was unfortunately worded.
To some people II conveyed the idea that
the doors were TO be unlocked 20 tina;
people could get access 10 the factory
from the outside. whereas the intent was
10 enable those inside to get out.
The great cause Of fires. he said. was
carelessness. Owners of factories lie held
responsible for their prevention II tho
were careless, legislation would be Of 1T
tie value.
Fire drills. he said. were of no value
if there were not discipline and the prop
er spirit He said that If fire sprinklers
had been installed at the Asch Building
not one Of the III lives would have been
lost. In comparing fire prevention and
legislation in the United States and the
European countries, he said:
THE citizens OF this country are hope
lessly behind the standard OF Europe.
The average loss by fire I'm European
countries is about one-tenth of what
IL is I'm this country. In the aggregate
$50. 900 OF property is destroyed by fire
annually in the United States, and a great
deal Of this loss is preventable."

Life Was Simpl. Then.


Il must fall back if l would serve
my conscienc upon these things winch
are fundamental. rather than UPON
those things which are superficial l
ask myself this question: How are
YOU going to assist in some small pert
10 give the American people and, by
example. the peoples Of the world, more
advantage more liberty. more happi-
ness. more substantial prosperity, ard
how are you going to make that pros
perity a common heritage instead OF
possession?
The men Of the day which we now
celebrate had very great advantage
over us in this one particular: Life
was simple in America then; al! men
shared the same circumstances In al
most equal degree. our task is very
much more difficult. That sympathy
which alone interprets public duty is
more difficult for a public man to &C
auire now than it was then, because
we live in the midst of circumstances
= and conditions infinitely complex.
The city Of Washington is in some
respects self-contained. 1t is easy
there 10 forget what the rest of the
United States is thinking about l
count il a fortunate circumstance that
almost all the windows Of the White
House and its offices open upon unoc-
cupied spaces that stretch 10 the banks
of the Potomac. and then out into Vir-
sania and into the heavens themselves.
As / sit there l can constantly forget
Washington and remember the United
States.
Thinking About Reelection.
Not that l would intimate that all
Of the United States lies south Of
Washington, but there is a serious
thing back of my thought. If you
think too much about being reelected
il is very difficult to be worth re-elect-
ing. You are so apt to think that
the comparatively small number of per-
sons, numerous as they seem to be
when they swarm, who come TO Wash
ington TO ask for things, do not con-
stitute an important proportion of the
population OF the country, that IT is
constantly necessary to come away
from Washington to renew ones con-
tact with the people who do not swarm
there who do not ask for anything, and
who do trust you without their per-
sonal counsel to do your duty. Unless
one gets this contact he grows weaker
and weaker.
MY theme here to-day, my only
thought, Is a very simple one. DO not
let US go back TO the annals Of those
sessions Of Congress TO find out what
to do, because we live In another age
apd circumstances are absolutely diff
ssrert Let Us be men OF that Kind.

custom of sending messages to Con-
