Senator Scott, in the senate. and Com
gresham Dovener, in the house. are
determined to push the bills they intro
duced recently to provide Wheeling
with new government building. Their
bills, 1t will be remembered. call for an
appropriation of 100000 for this pur-
pose, and as both were introduced at
the beginning Of the present session it
is likely something will materiallze
soon. In fact the matter viii be dis
cussed before the senate committee on
public buildings and grounds next
month.
Attorney Samuel o. BOyce yesterday
received the following letter from sena-
tor Scott:

me i desire to have this information some
time after the first OF January, 80 l can
present 1t. to the committee.
Very turly yours, -
N. B. SCOTT.
Mr.. Boyce said he would circulate the
paper as desired by the senator, and
was confident a good showing of the
need of the new building would result.
Statements from business men, too,
will be furnished Senator Scott for use
at the same time before the senate
committee.

The scandal at the hospital for the in

te.n of the oldest and most capable en-
ploy-s refusing to serve longer under
the present management. These men
walked out yesterday and gave as their
rsss..ns for go doing that the manage
ment was Incompetence and worse, and that
charges that had been preferred against
the head physician and others had not
been investigated after promises had
been made that they would be. This Ia
a terrible condition of affairs and results
from the greed of the fusion political
managers, who, displaced competent
men for no other reason than to give
their position to politician henchmen.

We are glad to note that nearly all the
wives of Congressman are pledged to use
their influence with their husbands to
secure the rejection of Roberts by Con
gress. 1t is encouraging also TO be told
BY the Washington papers that the de-
LUCE of protests from men and women
all over the country is having marked
effect in the capital city.
according 10 J. A. Johnson mayor of
the city of Fargo, y. d., the saloon is not
a very profitable business for the city or
town. In a letter just received from
Mayor Johnson he says: When the
saloons were driven out of Fargo, it was
predicted that the town would die, that
the mi would go down and buildings
remain vacant, etc. The facts do not
carry out those dismal prophecies. More
than s 100000 has been expended in
buildings in Fargo in the past three
years and there is not a vacant house OF
store III town that is at all desirable. Dur.
ing saloon times Fargo did not have a
5 ngle block of paved streets with a
complete system of sewerage to all
parts of the city.
Ii is said Of the Northwestern Life In
surance company, of Milwaukee, that
they refuse to insure any n who is in
any way connected with the beer bust
ness ev.n Thought it be only a driver whC
hauls the barrels, so COZ WINGED are the,
that beer drinking shortens life and tha'
association with the business oft;
manufacture tends to the beer drinking
habit. In the face of this overwhelming
testimony from mel who have 10 special
interest ia Temperance, but who are look
ing sharp after the dollar, he must bt
truly blind to the truth who refuse TO be
lieve that the use OF alcoholic beverages
of all kinds shortens life.
