COMMISSION TOCARE
FOR BATTLE FLAGS
Fitting Repository Will Be Pro.
vlded in New Capitol for
War Relics.

"Some fitting repository will be pro-
vided in the new capitol for the battle
flags and other war relics in the care
of the state; and the Grand Army need
have no anxiety for the future of these
valued mementos," said Vice Presi-
dent Charming Seabury. of the capitol
commission, tot h Clio b e.
Mr.. Seabury's remark was called
forth by assertions made at the recent
state encampment of the G. A. r. at
Minneapolis, to the effect that in the
plans of the new capitol no place had
been provided for the war relics which
now occupy a cabinet In the main cor
ridor of the capitol This statement
aroused some feeling on the part of the
members Of the G. A. r. and a COM
mittee was instructed to confer with
the capitol commission.
In his statement Mr.. Seabury said:
81 am not able to tell you at this time
just which plan, of several that were
under consideration, Mr.. Gilbert has
adopted, for Mr.. Gilbert is now out Of
the city. But the statement that either
the commission or<Mr. Gilbert had
overlooked this matter is incorrect. We
have discussed it a number of times
in the commission and Mr.. Gilbert has
taken a great deal of pains to inform
himself as to what plans have been
used by other states. These different
plans he has reported to US, but I do
not know which one Of them he has
found to be the most practicable. Some
of the states have preserved their old
battle flags in glass tubes, each one
sealed up by itself, and that plan was
considered; but we all felt that the
flags could not be displayed to SO good
advantage that way as in one large
case. Mr.. Gilbert suggested a large
plate glass case closely sealed to keep
out the dust; but what form of de-
velopment his idea has taken I am
unable to say.
81 do feel perfectly safe in say
ing that the flags will be displayed to
better advantage and better protected
from dust than they are in the present
capitol. The members of the capitol
commission have every respect for
those battle flags, and I am sure Mr..
Gilbert fully recognizes the importance
and propriety of providing a suitable
place for them in the new building"

Congressman Buchanan gives it as
his opinion that the present session
will adjourn either late in April or
early in May. The impeachment pro-
ceedingS brought against Judge
Swayne, of Florida, may result in ex-
tending the session somewhat, but an
early adjournment is looked for. Con-

been unusually successful in the mat

been gotten through the department
for men in his district Of late.

it is probable that it will follow the

turn its Democratic executive.

Town Council DOinqs

The regular monthly meeting of the
town council was held las. Monday
evening but the principal business
consisted in the audit and allowance
of claims.
A petition from the Farmers club
requesting donation of 5000 toward
the expense of district fair brought
out considerable discussion. 1t was
stated that the town had contrib buted
heavily toward the construction of the
present fair building, it being the
understanding at the time that the
building should be painted and kept
in proper repair but this had not been
done.
1t was also held that the finances of
the town would scarcely permit of a
donation since the revenues had been
materially decreased without any
special decrease in expenditures. One
of the trustees stated that inasmuch
as one third of the $500 subscrib bed by
the county would come from the taxes
iSNiSu "Itiiih thc loWH ludU lulS
would seem about enough for the
town to contribute.
However, all realized the import
ance of keeping up the fairs and a
motion being made to contribute 800
for this purpose it was carried with
out dissenting vote, it being under
stood that the building should be
painted as previously promised.
Some time was taken up with the
discussion of the condition of the
courty roads in the near vicinity of
Glenwood, the statement being made
that not only had the county failed to
equitably divide with the town the
road taxes collected on town property
but that the roads near Glenwood
were apparently given less attention
than any in the county. AS an ex
ample it was cited that the road be-
tween the town and Bailor's ranch
had for long time been in very bad
condition but that it was now es-
pecially bad by reason of the mud :
holes resulting from ranchmen allow
ing waste and seepage waters from
their ranches to overflow the highway
The road leading down to the Car
dl fl bridge was reported in very
slanting and unsafe condition and the
clerk was instructed to address a
letter to each of the county com
missioners asking them to take steps
to improve this portion of the county
highway.
The question of placing fire by
drant on the corner of Grand avenue
and Eleventh street was discussed and
the matter left with the street and
alley committee.
The attorney was given power to
take such action as seemed to him
best with reference to the case of the
town against Ed. II. Reeves.
Doctor Crook made plea for a
sidewalk on the west side of Bennett
avenue from Tenth to Eleventh street
but after considerable levity over the
matter at the expense of the chair
man of the street and alley committee
without taking any action, the coun
ell adjourned.
