The Costly weather bureau.
Hartford Times.l

There is a movement on foot that is likely to
proposed consolidation OF the Lighthouse.
Coast Survey and Signal Service Bureau. All
three of these branches of the public service
do the. same kind of work. and, in many
eases. the same work exactly Each OF them
costs great deal more than Ii should, and
by the proposed consolidation the whole
thing will not cost more than any two of them
cost under the present system. where la many
eases three men unemployed to do the work Of
one. AT present the Signal Service aud Weather
Bureau is under the War Department. though
there is no good reason for 1t, nor never has
been. The Weather Bureau has nothing
to do with war. aud the signal service is
more in name than anything else, the
greater portion OF the time and men
OF the bureau. Under the War Department It
costs nearly twice as much as 1t would under the
Treasury because a number of the generals.
colonels, majors. captains and other officers.
who do nothing but hang around this city and
draw pay. could be dispensed with. Observing
the weather is no part of the duty of
a soldier though it could be done and is done
by those employed in the lighthouse
or coast survey service One OF the strong
fhinga that is urged against the weather bureau
is that. according to the way it is now run. it
costs mere than u comes TO, and that we are
paving nauch too dear for our whistle This lis
no doubt true. as will be shown when the pro-
passed sonselidation comes before Congress for
