STATE HOUSE FORMS PRARIE LIGHT HOUSE AT LINCOLN, NEB. The new state house, or capitoL of Nebraska, at Lincoln, ( known to he country at large chiefly as the home town of Mr. Bryan), . has furnished an opportunity for a radical departure the beginning, perhaps, of a new school of architecture, with a sort of high visibility as its motive a 400foot tower crowned by a glittering dome visible 50 miles away ncross the flat country upon which it stands. The tentative plan for the Nebraska capitol. says a writer for the New York Times, has been chosen from an invited competition of ten artists, at least eight of them eminent, with three not less prominent architects from New York, Washington and San Francisco acting as judges. Each design was presented at an elevation, lest the fascinations of perspective draftsmanship lure the judges away from the clean-cut issue of a stark architectural idea. It was a -delib crate Judgment of Paris, with all the frills removed, Goodhue Is Architect. Bertram O. Goodhue, architect for the Gothic and Hispanic. "was adjudged tho winner, for it was the distino tive feature of this competition that the architect was not to be tied down to any without reservations rendering of his own original design. AM that will be required of him is to erejvte in the final building the sair.e spirit that imbued his first sketch. If Nebraska's state capitol be not as beautiful as if a more precedented idea had been chosen, that's Nebraska's lookout. At least it will be different from other state capitals. The building, as at present planned, coVers a big square of ground area, with its chief architectural featute that massive tower which will be built so it can be used for library stock rooms and for the filing of state documents. Its work in life is indicated by its architectural exterior, as every real art should declare its purpose, be it a hand-tooled book or a church facade. For the brief hour of folding bed art is over. Toppins the tower is a golden dome, which shall gleam like a lighthouse at.Bea,
i across the flat country. The main body of the building seems hardly three stories high, al will come from four inside court s The outside windows are small and ! few for two reasons. Partly the cli matic conditions have influenced the i design, as is proper, whether you are building in Cairo or in Rheims. The climate of Nebraska knows the bitterness of a wind-swept winter and the scorchings of an unshaded summer. Both are mitigated by the sheltered courts. Then, for pure architectural reasons, a window-broken wall would be too fragile a base for such a tower. Again, had classic pillars adorned the f.lj. facade they would have cast shadows too delicate for the massive thing! which they must appear to uphold. ! Waving mmmittoH Eolf n that cf .,. pendous tower, the buildingynust pay the price. Having chosen strength and brutal vigor as its qualities, the Nebraska state capitol must be content when that ambition is attained without any of your side lines like jeweled window's. It is neither Egyptian, Romanesque, nor yet the ruins of Roman construction in Northern Africa. Yet it suggests these three unrelated periods. In truth, what the architect has done is to select a mood and use form to create that mood. Has Stern Mood. The mood which Goodhue seems to be developing in this structure, as in his other recent work, is of a stern almost of a brutal nature Therefore it is gratifying to know that he has given a No, as stern as his own conception of a state capitol, when a practical budget fan suggested that the advantage of this plan was nunnnHnni

A year will probably be taken to draw up the plans and by the summer of 1921 it is believed that construction will begin. Then, for better and for worse, the monumental dream will become a reality. Either it will be a building of impressive force that will stretch its power millenniums into the future as architecture, alone of the works of man's hands, can do or else it will be a stern-browed reminder of 10 million dollars that could have been spent in better ways no timid copy of a dead art.
