The reception accorded Secconretary of State Root at the gress at Rio Janeiro and the cordiality exhibited wherever he has landed in South America are regarded aa omena of success for his unprecedented tour. Never before baa the premier of this government undertaken a similar mission, and It Is unusual for such a high official of one government personally to visit the capitals of other governments and by. plain, frank intercourse endeavor to establish firmer relations between great powers. Mr. Root has as the object of his South American tour the correction of an erroneous Idea and prejudice that exists there against the United States. The people of this country are virtually unknown In South America. The United States hat no steamship connection with that section tfl speak of and our trade cannot compare with that of Europe. Unfortunately, the type of Americans with which the Latin- Americans have become acquainted Is largely that of the adventurer, A dlslike has grown up because of this and also because our language, customs and ideas are all different from theirs. It Is to correct this Idea that, Mr. Root Is visiting the republics and also with the idea of Monroe doctrine and perhaps to lay the strengthening the foundation for a still stronger bond between the nations of the Western Hemisphere as against the encroachment, commercially and politically, of foreign powers. Mr. Root will call to the attention of these South American countries the fact that from the time of their great wars for Independence, the United States has protected the southern continent from political aggression. He will endeavor to show that It Is to the advantage of these people to form closer commercial union with the United States and that, when an understanding Is effected, they will find American goods superior to those Imported from Europe, l. n - Latln-Amerlca- n time-honore- d Consolidated Wagon and Machine Company GEO.

It would require an expert mathematician to figure out just how many coats of paint, how many yards of plastering and how much expenditure of money there have been lavished upon this historic old building. Every year the interior la gone over and every year the outside Is either painted or washed, so that the glistening whiteness may be retained. The decorations of the executive mansion need careful attention always, and the paint and enamel work has to be kept clean and free from all marks and scratches. The multitude of pilgrims who annually visit this building is disposed to be critical, and If any dirt or any defacement of decorations or walls Is discovered, there is sure to be something ugly said about it. The hard wood floors have to be cared for whenever a flaw Is scon In their finish. The celling and wood work of the East Room is being gone over, and the Green Room and lied Room have both been overhauled. A good deal of attention has to be given to the magnificent State dining-room- . Minor repairs are being made In the private dining-rooand the columns In the corridor are being refinlshed. STANFORD WHITE AND THE WHITE HOUSE. The recent tragic death of Architect White, who was shot by Harry K. Thaw, attracted unusual attention in Washington because he was of the firm of architects that made the plans for the renovation of the old White House and the construction of the executive office buildings. There has always been a diversity of opinion as to whether the expenditures, amounting to about a quarter of a million dollars, in restoring the White House to Its original design, were justified. In the oplnton ot those of artistic taste, It was money well spent, although t,he general public does not appreciate what was done. The original design of the White House contemplated a terrace on each side of the main building. This had never been fully carried out, a huge conservatory on the west, an ugly structure of glass, wood and Iron, taking the place of the terrace. This was removed and the extensions on either side are now In accordance with the original model. Thq executive office building Is a very unattractive, homely structure, although it did cost $68,000. There was method in the work of the architects structure. For many years past congress has In producing this barn-likbeen asked to provide a proper building for the president and bis executive force, where the business of his office could be transacted and where proper salons and halls could be located In which Important official functions, like the signing of treaties, the reception ot foreign ambassadors and other affairs of that sort could be conducted. Congress has never seen fit to appropriate the money for such a building, and when the presidential offices were erected, it was supposed that nothing more would be needed. These offices are so ugly and excite so much contempt in the public eye and mind that the pressure Is growing stronger every year to have a decent executive building, one that will comport with the dignity of the nation, erected. e THE NUMBER OF ANARCHISTS INCREASING.
