There is no lobbying for this measure

purely in the interest of thirsty humanity,

Mr.. Fuerth is opposing the Capitol
Park Extension Bill, and at public
hearing on Thursday night last, in Har-
risburg, in which Senator Fox spoke at
great length in support of the measure,
and answered many questions put by
members of House Appropriations Com
mittee, the member from Wayne elected
from him much information concerning
the appraised and assessed valuations
of the property proposed to be taken for
the extension, which will enable MEM
bers to discuss the question intelligently
when it comes up in the lower branch.
At the executive session of the commit
tee, after the public hearing, it was de-
cided to report the bill with two import
ant amendments.
One provides that the park extension
commissioners, three in number, are to
serve without compensation other than
their necessary expenses.
The other provides that all property
in the extension district be acquired by
condemnation instead Of by purchase.
