The first Capitol at Washington
was commenced 120 years ago to-
day, when President Washington
iaid the corner-stone of the edifice
which was to be the centre of gov-
ernment in the new federal city.
Only the north wing was completed
when the seat of government was
transferred in 1800 to the rude vil-
lage in a wilderness. This wing was
fitted up to -accommodate both
houses of Congress. Apath through
an alder swamp led from the Presi-
dont’s house to the Capitol. The lst-
ter building was illy adapted to its
‘purpose, and the dissatisfaction of
the law.-inuksrs almost resulted in
the removal of the capital back to
Philadelphia. Except for the oppo-
sition of the southern members, tho
resolution would have passed. The
first Capitol was burned when the
British occupied Washington in 1814,
and was replaced by a more satis-
tory edifice.

Kt., Liberal leader in the Canadian
Senate, statesman, iournalist and
author, was born near Nain, in Mid-
dlesex County,‘ seventy-two years
ago today, Sept. 18, 1841. 1-lis pa-
rents, James Ross and Ellen McKin-
non, were natives of Ross-shire,
Scotland. Ho was educated in Tor-
onto Normai School, and _at Toron-
to University and St. Andrew’s,
Scotland. His first employment was
as a pedagogue in what he has de-
' scribed as "the little red' school-'
house at the cross roads." He he-
csmo an inspector of public schools
and of model schools, and also took
occasional journalistic flights. As a
edited the Strathroy Age, and later
the Huron Expositor and the Onta-
rio Teacher. His parliamentary car-
eer commenced in 1872, when be was
elected from West Middlesex, and in
1883 he was made Minister of Edu-
cation. He continued to hold that

lished works include "The Life and

zie," and-"Getting Into Parliament

of the last forty years. "During the
thirty-five years fn which I repre-
sented West Middiesex," be wrote,
"I ran (to use the common expres-
sion) eleven elections. In onel was
elected by aeclamatlon, and a happy
day it was. In uve the contest was
close and severe, and -in the other
live the opposition was weak and
easily overcome."
