CAPITOL COLUMNS
MAY Be NONOL|THS
Fact That Great Granite
Blocks Are Taken Out
Raises Question.

While no official discussion Of the
question of adopting monolithic granite
columns for the exterior Of the new
capitol has taken place, and cannot
until the various members of the CAPT
tol commission, return to the city, 1t is
probable that this will be live issue
at the next meeting Of the board
During the past few days the statement
that granite monolithic columns of suf-
fcient size can be obtained and would
be much better has been heard on many
sides, and members Of the commission
arc inclined to give serious 'consldera-
tion to what they at first refused to
entertain.
John Dern, chairman of the building
committee of the capitol commissioners,
virtually said yesterday that he per-
sonally favored the monolithic column
although he would not say as to the
opinions Of the other members. He
said he understood that the stone com
pany has demonstrated its ability to
take pieces of granite out of the Little
Cottonwood canyon large enough for
the proposed one. piece columns.
The question of added cost seeus to
be uppermost with Nj. 5. Browning OF
Ogden, a member of the commission.
He said yesterday that while he was
not ready to express an opinion at this
time he thought much would depend
upon the added expense, if any, at,
tacncd to changing to the columns Of
monoIithic type He said that the state
is nearly, If not quite. up to the limit
of expense and will have to proceed
carefully.
Monolithic columns are not specl-
fed in the plans under which we have
been working,' said David II. Mattson,

BYHOWER IN FAVOR
OF CITY NURSERY
Will Probably Be Established on Ter.
raced Ground Overlooking
Reservoir.

Establishment of city nursery on
the terraced ground overlooking the
Thirteenth East reservoir, on the east,
where pine trees aud shrubs can be
raised for stocking the city's parks and
boulevards, is being considered by the
city commission on recommendation OF
Nicholas Byhower, park superintendent:
Commissioners Heber NJ. Wells and
". H. Shearman, Superintendent By
hover and Superintendent G. F. Barrett
of the water department, went over the
ground yesterday afternoon and ap-
proved the suggestion of the park
superintendent. If the other commits
sioners will agree to the plan an ap-
preparation will be made at once to
put the plan in practice.
Superintendent Byhower also con-
templates the parking OF all the city
grounds around the reservoir. Lawn
terraces can be built on all sides of the
reservoir for a few hundred dollars,
he believes. The aren around the reser-
voir is unsightly at present, being COW
cred with weeds and broken ground.
