Men Needed for Construction.

Considerable difficulty is being exper-
fenced by the Northern Pacific and Great
Northern in securing men for construc-
nishing free transportation which was
tried some time ago with the hope of in
ducing laborers to go west, results in
somewhat of a failure. Railroad contrac-
tors state that many of the men who
they are receiving are little less than
hobos who have gone west simply for the
sake of the ride, and will not work. A
large number of the men sent from st.
Paul have deserted the construction crews
and have gone on to the coast.

LOCAL SELF GOVERNMENT.

Charleston Gazette.
Senator Osenton's bill relating to
granting licenses, which was passed by
the Senate Saturday, is intended to Sc
cure self-government for the cities,
towns and villages of the State. Its
main provisions are, first, that the
common councils of any city or town
shall have the exclusive right to grant
or refuse to grant licenses; and@second,
that the county court shall not grant
licenses to any one to sell liquor within
two miles of any city, town or village
without the consent of the council of
such municipality. These provisions Of
law are generally desired by all the
towns and cities Of the State, and Sen
ator Osenton has rendered the people
of the State valuable services by the
bringing forward of this bill 1t ought
to become law.

A DEFECTIVE CDRNTCE.

Yesterday afternoon just before tw0
O'Clock a large section of the cornice
on the southeast corner of the new
telephone building, at Chapline street
and alley Il, fell to the sidewalk with
terrible crash. An inspection showed
a considerable portion of the entire corr
nice was in a dangerous condition, par
ticularly at the northeast corner, and
the sidewalk and alley were closed to
traffic, while a force of men was put to
work to remove the dangerous mass.
The cornice was evidently not prop
erly anchored, and the frost had loos-
ened the material.
