The Star desires to remove this misappre- hension. In the conduits the electricity is im the wires only, save when it is being used im the car-motors; there is a perfect metal- Ne circuit. Escape to the street is prac- tically impossible and there is no evidence to show that such action ever took place sentative of the government in all matters connected with the erection and completion of such buildings, the receipt of proposals, the award of contracts therefor, and the disbursement of moneys thereunder.” It is further provided by the act that the Sec- retary has power to modify or change the drawings and specifications whenever he sees fit to do so. The fact of the matter is that the people of this country are tired of official architecture as it is exempli- fied in certain monstrosities scattered through the land. It is proposed to make a change and this change is certain even though it involves the existence of the en- Se. Ladies’ Fancy Border Handkerchiefs. Jerseys and Shirt Waltstss 50c.

The orily remedy for thjs would be the adoption of the double trolley system, and that would Mean twice as much highway obstruction as exists at the present time, to say noth- ing of the expense to the companies; the original equipment and the refitting inci- dental to such change would cost more than an underground line.
