For Federal Buildings in
This State May Soon Be
Appropriated.

WASHINGTON. D. c., Nov. 20
In anticipation of the passage of a
pcblic building bill at the coming
sess on of Congress, statistics have
been prepared showing the situation
in West Virginia in regard to the
sites already purchased and pro-
posed new buildings. 1t is shown in
this statement that provis on has
been made for the purchase OF sites
at Buckhanon. sistersville, Phil!ppi
and Elkins, but that no proyis on
has been made in any of these cities
for the erection of buildings.
While 1t can not be stated that
appropr atoms will be made at the
coming session of Congress for
buildings for cities where lots have
been obtained. in advance OF other
places which have no sites ready.
At the present tine, there fore, 1t
would seem probable that the cities
mentioned may get appropriations
before the adjournment of the conf

getting into-tEe cabinet or not, there
Win be a pretty tight among the
West vlrginia Democrats over the
distribution Of the FEDERAL patronage
In the state. The wen known
friendsh.p o. Col McGraw for wood
row Wilson and the Arm stand
which he took for Wilson early in
the campaign resulting eventually
in his nomination has undoubtedly
made him very strong with the new
president AS pointed out above he
is also very strong with Mr.. Bryan.
who Il 10 understood will have much
to do with the new administration
II would naturally be believed that
Col. MeGraw will have more lnfiu-4
ence than any one else in the d:stri-
button OF the federal patronage.
Bit the Senate. II Democratic at
all. will be SO by very slight mar
Gin, and Il will be necessary for
President-elect Wilson to carry
through his policies, to have every
Democratic senator friendly with
him.
1t IS not to be presumed that Sen.
ator Chiffon could be regarded as
IF endly. TO the president IL the pres
ident were to ignore him In all mat
tiers of patronage Affecting West
Virginia and allow the ofIlces of that
state to be controlled by the sena-
tors polit cal enemy. Thus sena-
tor chiltcn seems to be in posi-
ton to compel the president to dis
tribute at least part of the patron
age through him.
Whether an agreement can
be reached between Senator Chiffon
and Gel. McGraw as to the distribu-
ton OF the patronage is question
ableb but if,no such an agreement is
reached there will certainly be
merry fight over the Offices in West
Virginia with considerable doubt as
10 the outcome.
