Santiago. Chile, June 26.-All peo-

gradual increase in the cost of life
as the movement of increase felt over

The circle has been the same. For-
eign products rise, salaries increase,
prices Of domestic products advance.
There have been some labor move
ments in the nitrate region in the
north n in the coal fields in the
south. both strikes ending with arbi-
tration of the demands of the work
men. Trade appears to be very active
and. although the market appears 10
be we'll stocked in most trading lines.
good orders are being placed for
British and American goods for the
coming winter.
The crops have been good. but
prices are going up owing to inability
of the railroads to transport the crops
to the great centers. Great prices
mark the scarcity of foreign pro-
ducts like sugar, print paper, rice,
which are not produced in the coun-
try.

group of officers at the navy war col
lege at Newport, in a recent communi-
cation to a member Of congress sug-
costing certain changes in the naval
organization.
This is the group of officers, Ad-
miral Decker declared. who have
stood ,out against the introduction of
politics into the navy and have sacri-
feed themselves for the good of the
navy and not fattened on it.

CONDEMN PLAN
x: OF T0WNLEY
One Firm Monopoly of State
Architectural Business
Deemed Unfair.

Fargo, N. D., June 26.-The North
Dakota Association of Architects in
session at Fargo yesterday passed a
resolution in condemnation Of the
poilcy of the board Of administration
IN the employment of a single firm
OF architects to care for all of the
state business operations. Upon as
Stunning the reins of government, the
Iown!ey administration secured Will
nam kurke Of Fargo as state archi-
tect, later they associated F. w.
Keith of Bismarck. These men are
in charge of the states extensive
building operations and according to
the association Of architects this ar
ransement is adverse to the best in
terests of the state.
Many Objections.
The architects reason that this firm
is not equipped to properly supervise
the states building operations and
that the monopoly accorded them
works a distinct hardship to all other
architects in the state. They believe
that the business should be distribute
ed so that building operations in the
northwest part of the state should
be handled by architects in Grand
Forks, those in the southeastern part
of the state should be handled by
architects in Fargo. and those in the
western part of the state by archi-
tects i'm Bismarck and Minto-wher-
ever there are architects that they
should be, in charge of the work in
n a locality. This question Of favor
itisn, is not the only one to which
the architects object. There appears
TO be no way in which the compensa-
ton OF this firm Of architects can be
estimated-like all other public af-
fairs connected with the present ad-
ministration. the public is not taken
into the confidence of the board of
administration. and whether these
men are receiving ordinary compen-
sation or five times ordinary com
pansation is not known.
The Resolution.
The resolution adopted at the meet
Ing at Fargo yesterday follows:
Resolved. that this association en-
dorses the recommendation of the
state board of architecture to the
governor and state board Of admin
istration in favor of distributing
state work among the various archi-
tccts of the state instead of placing
the planning OF all state buildings
in the hands of one man to the detri-
ment Of the state. and as being un-
fair TO all other architects, residents
of the state"
