part payment for the Leavenworth
bridge. The Review Of two weeks ago
contained statement that the bridge
company had not built the approaches
to this bridge in accordance with the
contract and that the commissioners
would refuse to accept same. This
however was an error caused by mis-
understanding as to what the specif-
cations called for.
J. J. Green appeared before the
board and on behalf of the Brown
County Publishers Association pre-
sented a bid for the county printing at
full legal rates. It was the only bid

GOVERNOR WILL MANAGE CAPITOL
Legislation to Continue Capitol
Commission will not be Urged.

The disposition of the new state cap
itol will be one Of the important prob
lens to come before the legislature.
Unless some action is taken, the build
ing will revert to the absolute control
of Governor Johnson on March 80,
the second anniversary of the day on
which the last legislature passed the
Horton bill over the governors veto.
The second section of this bill says:
1.-Two years from the passage of this
act, or at such earlier date as it may
be completed, the new capitol building
shall be turned over to the governor,
and the latter shall assume and there
after have full control thereof
The commission does not consider
the building finished, altho there have
been rumors that it would turn the big
structure over to the governor some
time in advance of March 3d. The
bronze quadriga is now in place, the
stone walk and steps down to Wabasha
street are finished, and nearly all the
paintings are installed. The building
proper is in shape to be turned over,
and the main work left to be done is
upon the grounds.
Two years ago there was great
deal of agitation for permanent COM
mission to manage the building. The
present commissioners are believed to
favor such a system, though they
maintain that they are done with serv-
ing on the work, and would not take
places on permanent commission.
The principal argument in favor Of a
permanent commission is that it would
keep the control of the building out of
politics and tend to supply a better
quality of employees to care for the
art treasures.
ST. Paul members of the legislature
will have their hands full with the pro-
ject for capitol approaches, and prob
ably will not want to confuse the issue
with a contest that would be construed
as a reflection on the governor. Many
think that the passage of the Horton
bill over the governors veto created
feeling for him and increased the
Johnson majority in the last election.
Even if commission is created, it
will undoubtedly be left for the COVER
nor to appoint its members. There is
a proposition to put the financial mat
tiers in the hands of the board of con-
troll, leaving the governor only the APP
pointment and control of the superin-
tendent and his staff.
If the building goes into the COVER
nor's hands, it will give chin the ap-
pointment of all employees and the
control of an appropriation of $50, 900
a year or more for maintenance. Ap-
| plications for jobs in the building are
already on file, and the patronage so
turned over would require considerable
OF the governors time to determine.

Washington in one Of the most brilliant
society comedies ever written. Lady

Oscar Wilde successes. and has never
been equaled in brilliancy of dialogue
and sharpness of epigram. Its great

many other playwrights, who have used
the same situation in other surround
ings. This scene takes place in the
apartments Of Lord Darlington, who adj
mires Lady Windermere and has pUr-
suaded her that her husband takes far
too much interest in a certain Mrs.
ErIynne, who in reality Is Lady Winder-
