WILL BEAUTIFY ST. PAUL
MANY CIVIC BODIES FORM AN I'M
PROVEMENT LEAGUE
To Hold a Big Meeting to Organize
and ArOusezSPubIic Enthus-
1asmz for the
Cause.

Representatives from several of the
ward Improvement associations in the
city and from other civic bodies, met yes
terday at the Commercial club for the
purpose of forming federated improve
ment league. The following societies
were represented: Is Woman's Civic
league, the st. Paul School union, the
Burr Street Improvement association, the
Improvement associations of the Second,
F1fth and Sixth wards, the North and
South Improvement Association of ST.
Anthony Park, the Merriam Park I'M
proVement association, and the ST. Anth-
ony Park Woman's club
T. j. Smalley, president of the school
union, presided at the meeting. Mrs
Condo Hamlin was chosen secretary.
Mr.. Smalley explained briefly the object
OF the meeting. A union of the various
civil associations would better municipal
conditions, he declared Mrs. Condo
Hamlin told something of the recent
meeting of the National Association of
CIVIC Improvement leagues neld in Buff
Ialo. Mrs. Hamlin suggested that in the
event of the formation of federated i'm
proVement league it would be good
idea to have series of lectures delivered
during the winter on subjects relating to
CIVIC Improvement. Tit Federated I'M
proYement league she thought would
give the branch societies important aid
IN the carrying on of their work. I'M
proVements That would be of benefit to
the entire city could more readily be OBJ
tanned through the union of the different
pfanches that were all working toward
one end, the Improvement and beautify-
ing of the city. 1t was decided to send
a written request to each civic organiza-
tlon IN st. Paul, asking it to send three
delegates to a general meeting to be
held at the Commercial club about Sept.
10 At this meeting the organization of
a federated Improvement league will be
perfected.
Mr.. Snalley yesterday appointed the
following committee on organization: F.
b. Doran, George L. Wilson, Carl Taylor,
). w. Grigg, Webster Wheelock and
Mrs. Condo Hamlin. The committee will
consider the possibilities of work for the
fall and winter, and will devise a general
line of work by which efforts will be
economical, and, where possible, mutual
help given and the. duplication of effort
avoided. The result of their conferences
will be laid before the league, as soon
as it is formed, for ratification.

THREE IN THE FIELD
SEVERAL DEMOCRATIC CANDI-
DATES FOR WHITEHORNE'S
POSITION
THE COUNCIL IS UNDECIDED
DarI, Horse May BE Selected in the
Event of the Governor De-
cIaring the Seat
Vacant.

With County Commissioner Whitehorne
a fugitive from justice and his own
words admitting his guilt as to malfeas-
ance in office conveyed to the investiga~
ton commission by County Auditor
Johnson, local politicians have little doubt
that Gov. Van SAINT will order his dis
missal, without delay as soon as the
report of the commission is received.
The council alone has the authority to
name Mr.. Whitehorne's successor, and
this fact is responsible for the candidacy
of a number who think they are entitled
to the job.
At the election held last spring, four
Democrats Wed with as many Repub-
Iicans in trying to secure positions on the
county board, but the latter were sue
cessful to a man, and now friends of the
defeated candidates are offering them as
successors to Mr. Whitehorne. Fred
Schroeder. of the Fourth ward, and G.
J. Weyl led in point of votes at the
election last spring. and their friends say
they should receive the most considera-
ticn. Following them was w. ]. Preston,
of the Eighth ward, who also made a
good showing. ......
While these three are offered as candi-
dates, the council, it is understood, is
not a unit by any means on any par
ticular candidate and a dark horse may
be the choice. The Democratic strength
in the council is limited and if it should
divide the consequences would be dis
asJrous for Democrat.
The committee selected by Gov. Van
SAINT to make the investigation COM
menced its labors yesterday, and is
scheduled to meet again on Thursday,
but it is thought that it should not take
more than two weeks at the latest to
reach a conclusion. With its report in
the hands of the governor, Mr.. White
horne's dismissal should come at an early
date

BUILDING CODE READY
1T WILL GO INTO EFFECT NEXT
MONDAY.

The new building code will be officially
published this week, and will go into eff
feet next Monday
Just now there are a number of petit
lions pending before the council for spe-
cial permits in the line of hanging signs
frame buildings within the fire limits
and bill boards, and as these are doomed
under the new law, the petitioners are
naturally indignant.
There will be no meeting of the coun-
ell until next week, and in consequence
the petitions will not receive considera-
ton. Under the old ordinance the coun-
Gil could issue special permits over the
mead of the building inspector whenever
1t saw fit, but with next Monday that
will be thing of the past.

STORES IN DEMAND
RENTAL AGENCIES ARE OVER
WHELMED BY CLAMOR FOR
BUSINESS LOCATIONS
BUILDING BOOM JUST BEGUN
Many New Concerns Find 1t Almost
Impossible to Secure Satisfac-
tory Places, and Rents
Go Up.

That the general reign of prosperity
has reached St. Paul has never been
doubted, but many people will be sur
prised to learn that so great is the de-
mand for business locations in the down
town. district of this city, rental agents
and real estate men ind 1t Impossible
to meet the demand.
Every day there are inquiries for suit
able empty stores and store buildings
by business men,, said prominent st.
Paul real estate dealer to the q o 9
Yesterday Many new concerns are
starting up and they find it almost i'm
possible to secure satisfactory locations
in the business district. There is also an
unprecedented demand for office room.
If this sort of thing keeps on, the end
to our present building boom is long
way off.
People who have short leases on prop
erty find it very difficult to renew them.
The owners of the property can either
secure much higher rent for the same,
or they are contemplating building addi-
lions. In some cases buildings will be
torn down to make way for new and
modern structures of considerable magni-
tude.
1.-THE present building boom is very diff
ferent from that of the old days, when
the movement of the business firms from
the Third street district to Sixth and
Seventh streets occurred. Then there
were many desirable locations available,
and it was little thought that in so short
a time the business men of this city
would be confronted with the question OF
not having enough space for new blocks
in the heart of the city.
There is a general indisposition on
the part of new concerns to occupy stores
that are not exactly in the midst Of the
busiest retail section of St. Paul. They
have not the pioneering instincts that
were dominant in the old days of the
Sixth and Seventh streets influx. And
so, while there is plenty of good property
within a few blocks of the busiest streets,
there is a general clamor for more rooms
on the squares which are already crowd
