,Governor's Return May Tend to
Enliven the Situation This
Week.

The return Of Governor Swanson and
his presence at the Executive Depart
ment tomorrow Will tend to enliven
the situation about the Capitol, which
has been dull for many days.
When the Governor is in the city
there are always many callers at the
Capitol who do not come in his abb
sence, and the fact that he has been
away for several weeks Will probably
bring in many who wish to talk with
him I'm tho next few days.
There is a vast amount Of work In
the department Of the, Corporation
Commission, and 1t seems to be increas-
Ing all the time. Much Of 1t Is OF a
dull routine nature. but 1t keeps the
employees hard at It. even during these
long summer days. The commission
ers will all be here during the week,
but they have no important hearings
set for the near future.
