(special Correspondence.

Washington, March 23.-The adver-
tisememt for sealed proposals for the
Salt Lake public building site is not
yet prepared at the supervising archi-
tect's Office. 1t will, however, provide
for the opening of the bids some time
prior to May l. at 10 a. M, in Salt Lake
City. The site must be centrally and
conveniently located, and corner is
preferred. Each proposal must be made
with the understanding and agreement
that if it is accepted the buildings and
all improvements on the property are to
be removed within thirty days after
written notice by the vendor and that
all expenses connected with furnishing
evidence of title and deeds of convey
ance are to be paid by the same. Each
proposal must also be accompanied by
a properly drawn diagram, giving the
metes and bounds of the property, and
showing the streets around the block
in which the property is situated; also
by written statement in regard to the
grades, character of ground for founda-
ton, etc. The right to reject any and
all proposals is reserved by the secre-
tary, to whom proposals must be for

PRESIDENTIAL PLANS.

The president has again been obliged
to abandon the trip to the Rocky noun
tain states, which he has seriously con-
aideTed each summer since his inaugu-
ration. 1t was only at the last moment
that he dropped this itinerary last year.
This year he again considered a west
ern outing, but was prevailed upon to
make the southern trip instead. 1t is
claimed that the desirabilty of a series
of important conferences, such as were
undoubtedly held with Hanna, Hobart
and Reed, was pointed out to him as
an argument for a southern rather than
a western trip. Adyices received here
are that the president again took UP
the matter of going to Denver, Salt
Lake and the Yellowstone while at
Thomasyille. Mrs. Mckinley has always
desired to visit the park and the presi-
delt has felt that this would be one OF
the pleasantest possible vacations for
himself and family, but it is now re-
garded as improbable that he will be
able to make the trip during his presi-
Dental term. Next year he will have
a national convention on his hands, as
we'll as congress, with the presidential
campaign pending, which will confine
him pretty closely in Washington dur
ing the entire summer of the century
year.

due in great part to the subject of

that fact, doubtless, its popularity is in
a great measure due. l presume every
