"Do you know," said a famous
architect tlio other day, "that modern
architecture Is a Lugo paradox? Tho
honvlost and tallct buildings arc
ronlly housos built upon Band or
tho mud as tho cnao may bo."
'Than how do thoy stand?" ho was
nskod.
"Oh thoy aro safe enough. Take
tho Park How Hulldlug In Now York.
It Is tho tallost commercial structure
in tho world, and probably tho heav
iest also. It weighs ovor 55,000 tons.
which moans a pressure of nnarly
9,000 pounds on each square foot of
tho site. It Is about a hundred Union
as heavy a load as a good highway
bridge Is designed to carry. And yot
this onormous load rests upon a bed
of flno, wot sand scarcely different
from quick sand and a hundred foot
deep.
"It Is perfectly safe Nenrly 4 000
largo piles were driven In It by a
2,000'pound hammer falling 20 feot,
which compacted It until oven thoso
tromonduous blows could forco thorn
no further, nnd thoy could carry tholr
loads of 32,000 pounds onrh. droops
of those pllos woro capped with con
croto and pyramidal brick tlors woro
built on that. Stool beams woro laid
on tho lint tier tops to distribute tho
loads over tho surface of tho masonry.
Home of tho columns carry as much as
3,000,000 pounds each.
"Many of our hoavlest buildings
arc really supported, on stilts that Is
to say, on foundation pllos drlvon
through the sand or mud to tho solid
rook.
"In other cases hoavy buildings are
supported un pllos which neither roach
to hnrd bottom nor aro drlvon In Arm
soil. Long piles aro driven Into very
noft mud and silt, Into which they sink
ninny feet by tholr own weight nnd
by light blows of n steam hammor.
If thoy aro driven thoro thirty or
fifty feet mid loft undlsturbod a few
liourH, It Is found that tho adhesion of
tho lotinolouH mud Is so gront that
that thsy. can hnrdly bo Btarted again,
nnd may be safety trusted to carry
heavy permanent loads, which are
ronlly supported by the stickiness of
tho mud
"Tho St. Paul Building In Now
York Is supported on a very deep bed
of line wt sand which wns only ox
unvoted to a dopth of about thirty-two
feet. A one-foot layer of concrete
wns spread over tho bottom of the pit,
nnd on this were set tho real found
nttoim. consisting of crossed layers of
stwl Iiwuiih mid girders.
'The SpreekloH Ilulldlng In Snn
Francisco, whluh weighs over 34,000,
000 pounds,, rent on dens wet sand,
an which n solid platform of steel nnd
nrtlllelnl stone was laid as a foun
dation. This building hns passed un
injured through the tent of n severe
earthquake shock.
"In another big building the col
umns are settled un Inverted urches,
which distribute their loads over all
the space between them. The nrches
nre laid on long, wide concrete foot
Iiihu. whluh reduce the unit protHiuro
RUttloleutly for the line wet snud on
Which they ate built.
"Few If nuy, tall Imlldlu aro an
worse Hull than thoso of Chlenga
Uere, only ten or tltteen feet below
the Hiirfnoe, Is n orust of day not
more tltau ten feet thick, which tloau
on wet plastic mud from sixty to 100
feet deep, Pllw more than 100 feet
long would be required to reach the
hard pen or bed rook, and most of
the tall building there really stand on
rHt mttN built oh the surface of the
ok U has lieeu fuund that a load of
SJW0 pound per square foot of olay
etirfoK wilt settle slowly for Reveral
tuoMtka. After ttetUlHK irkatMi two
Inch It will becuHie ataUonary. and
my be eoHtlderaUly Increased with
eafeiy.
"Very often bulkting nre lUllbor
ately started atov gnulo. and It le
reckoned, that they will sink so many
Irnhe."
"He stmeluree bwllt on such
foundations are perfectly safe," the
art-hltMt eoHllHued. "Almost any
soft soil can be eueteeefbUy eonquerea
nowadays by an arehlteet who know

Tho lending newspapers of this
Stnto hnvo boun recently Interviewing
many prominent attorneys and mak
ing oxtondod commonts upon allegod
dofocts In tho taxntlon laws enncted
at the last session of our legislature
It appoars from such attornoys Inter

In tholr opinions that this law from a
legal standpoint is suscoptlblo of but

ing this fact, as wo undorstnnd some
of those IntorvlewB, It Is suggested
thnt n suit should bo brought In or

for tho ronson that thoy were oxcood
Ingly liberal In order to mako laws of
feotlvo when public Interests wore In
volved. It may be that such attor
neys have boen misquoted or In their
hnste havo not given clear expression
to thoughts Intondod to bo conveyed
for every well-Informed lawyor knows
thnt It Is beyond the province mid
power of a Judge to anact or change
laws. Our government was framed
so that one department should enact
laws, another should construq, and
etill another should enforce them.
The history or the past taught the
framers of our government that the
liberties of the people would be tram
pled down If the power to enact or
change laws and the powor to construe
laws were both vested In the same de
partment. If tho legislature has failed
to do its duty It Is solely responsible
to the people, but Judicial legislation
Is never warranted,

Concerning the value of the W. C.

"Todny wo are In demand. The
