TEMPLE OF JUSTICE TO Be READY BY JANUARY

The minor court room, Offices of the
Judges, rooms for the attorney general,
law library and librarian, will be com
pleted In the states new Temple. of
Justice before the first of the year, SO
that these Offices can be moved to the
new building from their present 10
cation In the capitol prior to the next
session Of the legislature.
Architect Copeland, who is supervis-
Ing the work for the state, says there
is no question that the building will be
that far completed by the time stated.
This week the roof beams have been
placed for both roofs of the pavilions
and work was started on the interior,
getting the partitions ready to plaster.
The plumbers and the electricians are
already on the job and are keeping
close behind the other workmen. The
boilers have arrived and are on the
site and the steam filters have begun
their work.
In the construction of the Temple of
Justice Contractor Hans Peterson is
said to be using more modern methods
than have ever been employed any
where before In building construction.
The feature Of the operations Is the
elimination to a great extent of hand
labor.
All the material is being transported.
from the water level to the site 1T an
Of more than 100 feet by an
aerial tramway. The lumber. sand. !.
gravel, cement and brick are brought
here on sc0ws and taken directly from
the scows to the building.

ern Pacific tracks and from the point
on these tracks Immediately beneath
the aerial tramway arrangement has
been made SO that the building steel,
the boilers, and other articles brought
in by rail can readily be picked up
and transported by the cables through
the air.
Four large steam engines and two
electric motors furnish the necessary
power. Part of the equipment used in
the construction is a complete saw
mill. In this mill all the forms for
the concrete work are manufactured
and all the woodwork is chased and
sawed. SO that the carpenters do moth.

Giant derricks with arms capable of
handling material over a radius of 100
feet. deliver the concrete or the NOR

building for immediate use by the
w0rkmen. .
Two horse loads Of lumber are de-
hvered In one swing of the derrick.
or 1,200 brick or a yard of mortar or
OF concrete. This method of delivery
practically wipes out the employment
OF any considerable number of helpers
for the bricklayers.
The payroll on the job averages
about 5000 week. This amount will
Be Increased, of course, when the In.
terror crews get to work.

plans for the energetic campaign
which will be instituted after the pri-
maries. The most active campaign
that has been waged by any set Of

Ever since the county ticket was
placed in the field the candidates have
been laying the groundwork for the
campaign and they are enthusiastic

Of the county indicate that the Demo

capable men. will be found on the
winning side when the complete count

A CHECK ON SOCIALISM.

After two years of trial with So
cialist administration of it's municipal
tintefests, Milwaukee, at an election in
which, extraordinary popular interest
was manifested, swept the socialist
party out of control and elected a
partisan administration. The
vote was $4,000 to 10000 against the
socialist party.
The socialists have grown remark
ably in Milwaukee, and have shown
more strength in that city than in
any other American community. They
obtained complete control of the ad
ministration OF the municipality at
the last election, and their success
attracted wide attention. The ad-
ministration of the city's affairs has
not come up to the expectations OIL
the promises that were made by the
supporters of socialist principles, and
there has been, for some time, report
of dissatisfaction with conditions.
The reputation of the socialists in
Milwaukee is of more than passing
interest. The party had a fair op-
portunity to prove it's efficiency in
control of the municiparity's affairs,
and it has evidently failed to JUSTIFY
itself in the opinion of the great ma
iority of the voters. The municipal
ty IS, undoubtedly the fairest field
If socialist activity, and the failure
If the party to satisfy the people of
of its capability to admin !
ster the city's affairs, will put a
heck upon the fortunes Of she So

Brunswick people realize that a
congressman from the Eleventh dis
trict will have to devote much of
his time to the interest of this city,
for the simple reason that Brunswick
is the only city in the district which
has harbor to be cared for. For
this particular reason the people of
this city want to see the best man
eicc ed, the one best qualified to fill
the position, and it is evident now
that the man best fitted to perform
the duties of a congressman will re-
ceive the votes of Glynn county.
