demnation proceedings follow they may
be forced out into the cold, as no shelter
at present seems available. Far-seeing
men Of the city, 1t IS said, have antici-
pated just such a contingency, and have
tried to interest rich men in erecting
an office building on Main street, where
it is badly needed.

has been jambed to the roof, and owing
to the severe congestion o1lce-seekers
were forced into mean and dingy bar
racks not at all to their liking. Now

If the Omitted States Government takes
over the Shafer property there Is little
likelihood, it Is said, that the present
tenants will be allowed to remain, for
