ATTEMPTS TO III ,UP A DEAL.
Efforts Marin t Turn the Work Over
to Aruliltcoin and Contrai-tor Fa
Toruble the King-Why Should the
Machine He So Anxlousl Another
Scandal In Proepeotlra.
Harrlsburg, Sept. 7. It begins to look
as It the senKatlon created by the dis
closures concerning that $20,000 Indem
nity bond would shortly be followed
fcjr another sonpatlon equally as grave.
In this Irmtanc-e, as in the former, all
of the parties Involved are party lead
ers or managers. The kernel of this
latest threatened scandal Is the build
ing of the now state capitol. It now
looks as though a state capltol would
not be built for some years to come,
unless a different course Is pursued.
The present week Is likely to see fresh
sensations In connection with the bond
scandal. Additional facts have been
gathered concerning this which mark
It one of the HtrangeHt pieces of polit
ical work on record. Suits against high
officials, resignations and legal pro
ceedings of various kinds may be look
ed fur almost uny moment now. It Is
understood that a Arm of leading Phil
adelphia lawyers has been engaged
during the past week In looking up the
law to see If any of the parties to this
transaction can be reached. The peo
ple of the state have only seen the
beginning of the impending political
revolution.
A Cnpltol lltiltillnir Scnnilnl.
The capitol building scheme will In
volve a danger to the commonwealth
if It is pushed to the end. The readers
of these letters are more or less famil
iar with the attempts made In the
fate legislature to turn the building
f the cnpltol Into a gigantic Job. This
was to he done by putting a great num
ber of useless Individuals on the com
mission. At length a bill was passed
fixing the commission at five persons,
consisting of the governor, the auditor
general, the state treasurer, the speak
er of the house and the president pro
tern, of the senate. It was also decided
that, Inasmuch as none of the members
of this commission had more than ordi
nary knowledge of architecture, a
board of experts be selected, whose
duty It should he to choose eight plans,
the best of all those submitted accord
ing to their trained and unbiased Judg
ment. The eight plans thus chosen
were to then be submitted to the board
of commissioners, and out of this lot
one plan would he selected for the new
capitol.
The names of all architect competi
tors were to be kept secret from the
board of experts as well as from the
board of commissioners selected by the
legislature. The names of all archi
tects selecting plans were sealed up
and placed In the possession of a Judge
of a court of Dauphin county. Now It
In known that the names of some of the
architects have been given to the com
mission, and there is a fight In the com
mission as a result. The secret of fthls
contest Is another story. f
A Knvorlte Contractor,
It hns been known all along that Sen
ator Quay and his friends desired to
have the new capitol built by a well
known contractor of Philadelphia. This
contractor Is also a well known poli
tician, but It must be said that he Is an
excellent workman and has had a very
extensive experience In constructing
large buildings. This contractor has
his own nrchitects, or firm of archi
tects. The whole struggle, therefore,
since the new capitol commlslson or
ginfzeif, bus been to throw the vorlc
Into the hamls ft this contractor and
Tils arrhltects. When n hoard cf ex
perts was chosen It was expected that
ttie plans of this firm which does the
work fir this particular and favored
Philadelphia controctor would of course
e among the eight selected for final
i:holee by the commission Itself. But
they were not. How members of this
commission, composed of Governor
Daniel II. Hastings, Auditor General
Myllii. Plate Treasurer Haywood.
'Speaker Hurry K. Buyer and S. J.
McCarretl. president pro torn, of the
senate and candidate for lieutenant
governor, came to know that a certain
architect's plans were not among the
'final eight can he answered by them
selves. As soon n this was discovered, that
the Philadelphia contractor and his fa
vorite architects had been left out In
the cold, certain members of the com
mission brazenly suggested that all of
the plans lie thrown out and a new set
of plans ordered. Or, that this archi
tect whose contractor Is favored by
Senator Quay and his friends should be
engaged to superintend the construc
tion of the new capitol. As a result
of this there has been a continual fight
tin the commission. Senator Quay has
Klven orders to certain men of the com
mission, and they are trying to carry
v them out.
Tire Attorney Jouoral Opinion.
No such favoritism and scheming has
been known for yeurs. To protect the
state and save the people from addi
tional burdens and expense Governor
Hastings requested the attorney gen
eral to give an opinion upon the sub
ject. Attorney General McCormlck sub
mitted the following:
"There Is no limitation upon the pow
ers of the commission found ln the act
at assembly In the selection of an
arcfcitect. They could have selected one,
1 If they had so chosen, to do the work
' without competition. They chose, how
ever, to exercise their discretion for
what they believed to be the best In
terests of the commonwealth, and in
cited architects to exhibit their skill.
"The commissioners all being lay
:men and architecture being a science
with which they were not familiar,
they asked the board of experts to de
termine the ability of the architect
from the design he submitted. Of this
.all competitors ware fully advised, and
there can be no reasonable ground for
'Complaint.
"1 therefore conclude, first, that the
MinmlsBloners, neither In paragraph 11
.at part 1, nor elsewhere la the pro
have abdicated, as such com
missioners, or delegated to others, the
powers vested In them. Second, that
it U the duty of the commissioners te
: as an architect of the mw capitol
building the author of one of the tight
designs reported by the board of ex
perts as exhibiting the best talent. To
do otherwise would, in my Judgment.
be an act of bad faith on the part of
the commissioners and the common
wealth represented by them. Third,
that the commissioners possess tht
power, after the selection of such archi
tect, to require him to make such re
vision and alterations of the design he
submitted as will meet the views of
the commissioners and bring It within
the appropratlon made by the act of
assembly." x
Certain Hchemln Com m I u Ion era
An editorial In the Philadelphia Press
of last Friday explains the situation In
a nutshell:
"The capitol commission failed agatn
yesterday to select an architect, though
every favorable condition was present
for doing so under the agreement made
by the commission Itself when It be
came bound, as did all the eompeting
architects, to submit to the selection
of one of the eight presented by the ex
perts.
"The situation with respect to this
matter seems to be much misunder
stood, due in large degree to the fact
that the Important sessions of the com
mission have been held In secret, and
much misinformation has been given
out by Interested parties. It has become
very apparent to all who have kept a
close watch of the matter that some
of the commissioners are determined
that the agreement entered Into shall
be broken by those who are acting for
the commonwealth and that an archi
tect shall be selected as a pure matter
of favoritism and In accordance with
the conditions made, and binding upon
all parties, to insure entire impartiality
In the choice. This is something that
public opinion Is not likely to tolerate.
"The commission has unfortunately
and Inexcusably allowed Itself to be
delayed in its work by the unprofes
sional action of certain architects who
have by their course revealed the fact
that they are not among the successful
eight. How they got Information of
their failure can be easily explained by
some of the commissioners, who have
for some time shown a settled purpose
to make a choice of some favorite in
violation of their own agreement and
program under which plans were in
vited. This Is one of the unfortunate
results of the secret meetings of the
commission. The public ought to be
put In possession of all the facts.
"Attorney General McCormlck has
thrown much light on the matter and
rendered a valuable public service by
his plain Interpretation of the terms of
the agreement which all are bound in
honor to respect the competing archi
tects as well as the several members of
the commission. The attempt to undo
this agreement to permit a selection by
favoritism for that, in plain terms, Is
what is Intended Is nothing less than
disgraceful. It much reflects upon the
state which thus lightly repudiates its
contracts.
"The complete facts In this matter
cannot be much longer withheld and
obscured. Every meeting of the com
mission serves still further to reveal
the hidden and unjustifiable purpose
of some of Its members, and they muBt
expect to be held to a full responsibil
ity." . Lawsuits In Sight.
f the commissioners for the building
the new capitol, who take orders
from Senator Quay, persist in their
course of determining to employ a
contractor and an architect favor by
the machine, the result will be no end
of litigation, trouble and expense for
the commonwealth. The commission
ers are under a solemn agreement to
treat all competing architects fairly,
and If they discriminate in favor of
Senator Quay's friends or anybody
else every architect will Institute suit,
and an endless course of litigation and
Injunction will follow, with the result
that no new capitol will be seen for
years to come.
This Is the scandal that Is surround
ing the building commission at this
time. It happily may be averted. It
ought to be, if the interests of the peo
ple are consulted. If the present dilly
dallying system about adopting plans
and delaying action in the interests of
one man, or set of men, is persisted In
the people will know Just where to
place the blame, for the statements as
set forth above are founded upon fact.

ONE OF TWO WAYS.
The bladder was created for one
purpose, namely, a receptacle for the
urine, and as such it is not liable to
any form of disease except by one of
two ways. The first way is from
imperfect action of the kiilnevs- The
second way is from cureless local
treatment of other diseases.
CHIEF t'Al'NE.
Unhealthy urine from uulieultliv
kidnevs is the chief cause of bladder
troubles. So the womb, like the
bladder, whs created for one purposes.
and if not doctored too much is not
liable to weakness or disease, except
io rare oases. It is situated back of
Hnd very close to the bladder, there
fore any pain, disease or inconveni
ence manifested in the kidneys, back,
bladder or urinary passage is often, by
mistake, attributed to female weak
ness or womb trouble of some sort.
The error is easily made and may be
as easily avoided. To Mud out cor
rectly, set your urine aslda for twenty
four hours, a sediment or settling
indicates kidney or bladder trouble.

when the Creator said to woman,

but the joy felt by every Mother
