Excerpt from The California Architect and Building News, Vol. 16: January, 1895 The principle of the Bill, namely, the instituting a Com mission of high character to have charge of the architectural work of the Government, and to distribute the work amongst the most skillful architects in the country, is unquestionably a correct one. The Bill has received the approval of the Secretary of the Treasury. It has passed tue Committee on Public Build ings and Grounds, of the House, whose indorsement could not be stronger, and the Bill is now regularly before the House. Owing to its introduction at the end of the last ses sion of Congress, at a time when the House was entirely absorbed by the Tariff revision, it was impossible to have a day set for its consideration and passage; therefore it had to go over to the present session of Congress.
