OF law involved in the matters en-
braced herein. but would regard It
remarkable indeed if there is not
some remedy, civil or criminal, or
both, to bring these nalefactors to
Justice and to some. extent to re-
dress the wrongs Of the State.
We feel that what we have re-
ported. and the testimony taken. re-
veals dark picture. 1t is true, but
nothing short of an actual lnspec-
ton of the W. * can convey an
adequate idea of the nonstrous
swindie of which the State IS the
victim.
The committee closes with the tol-
lowing recommendations:
I. That appropriate legal steps
be taken to recover, if possible,
from Frank P. Milburn and Nc
Twain Cnkefer Company as much
as possible of the damages the State
has suffered through their miscon-
duct and breach of contract, and
such other legal redress as may
seem to be advisable
2. That the most glarlng and
damaging defects in the work be
repaired under the authority OF the
Legislature until such time as the
finances of the State will admit OF
the whole work being done over IN
a manner to conform to the original
design.

item the State has lost in the neigh

a.. The plans and specifications
and the drawings call for two in
uerg mite columns on the front ror-
tico. They are not there. The
absence of them is explained by the
fact that in attempting to elevate
them into position the contractors
broke one of them into two pieces,
and rather than put the contractors
to the expense of replacing the brok
en- column, they were generously ex-
cused from putting them in at all,
they paying the State $500, leaving
them s3,4oo profit on that transac-
ton. The Office these columns
were to perform was an important
one, namely, to support the front
pediment of the portico and a bond
and tie to the main building, IN
other words to carry a large Intel
stone securing the po1sico to the
main building, and thus preventing
it from falling away, which it has
tendency to do This estimated
loss to the building: in all respects
on account of the absence or these
columns and the accompanying
parts they were to support is s4,5oo
On page 81 Of the report OF the
commission is letter from Archl-
tect Milburn on this subject, in
which he says: 1--WE can take these
out without in any way narrlng
the appearance from the exterior
and without in any way interfering
with the strength of the structure. "
Capt Hunt was asked by Senator
Manning his opinion on this point,
and answered as follows: II con-
slider that an insult to the intelll-
gence of your committee.
s. The beautiful leafwork upon
the capitals OF the old columns will
stand for all time as monument to
the skill and taste Of the artist who
carved them; that upon the new
columns, furnished by these con.
tractors, required to be and designed
to obemodelled after them, are coarse,
unsightly and unfit to stand beside
the old ones.
s. The columns at the rear OF
the portico, joining the main build
ing, should correspond with the
front columns, tinted stones ex-
tending from one to another. They
have none, and to dll up the space
between the capitals and the cell
ing they have put in tin or sheet
iron boxes, painted to resemble
granite; while all the balance of the
work was treating the State with
Injustice, this can only be construed
in the light of ridicule coupled with
contempt.

the portico in bad weather, we find
that the roof leaks badly, flooding
the lobby after protracted rains.
Ascending the roof, as we did, we
discovered the cause of this is to be

AT Salt Lake City last Monday
occurred the marriage of Mr.. Marion
Fitzpatrick of this city, and Miss

Ben Fitzpatrick Of this city; he has
grown to manhood here and is held
IN high esteem by all who know
him. He is now baggageman on
the Short Line and runs between

His bride is practically a stranger
in Montpelier, but by those who
know her she is spoken of as being
a most estimable young lady, and
very popular with her associates at
home.
Mr.. and Mrs. Fitzpatrick will be
at home to friends in Salt Lake
City after October 1st.

The Tax Levy.

The County Commissioners met
last Monday, and fixed the tax levy
for the present year at $2.3 on each
500 of valuation. This Is the
same rate as that fixed last year.

some this year had it not been for
the improvements that are to be
made on the court house. These I'M
provements will consist of new
vaults anda two or three room adj
dltion to the building, all costing
about $4,000.
The details Of the levy are as fol
