BLAMEs CITY FOR
SEWAGE CONDITION.

Occasionally and not infrequently It is
because of insanlJary acts Of citizens but
largely 1t Is because Indianapolis does
not take proper care Of disposing Of her
sewage. We polluted our streams years
20 and We DO so today. We polluted
White River until our neighbors down
stream sued sus We can't sue our
selves. but It IS high time that we clean
house ourselves. because II we don't do
il we will have q scourge Of typhoid that
will put US IN first place so far that we
will not get out for several years.
But I feel that II isn't the work OF

nous George Washington Monu- ment to Great Britain in Spring.
 Richmond, Va, Feb. 1S.-Presen- tation to Great Britain by the State of Virginia of a copy of the famous Houdon statue of George Washing ton the original of which now stands in the rotunda of the Virginia state capitol here, will take place this spring.
 The governor of Virginia, Vest moreland Davis, who was to have headed a commission of Virginia of- ficials which is to make the presen- tation, has found it impossible to make the trip to London and has delegated in his place pr. Edwin A. Alderman, president of the Univer- sity of Virginia. The other members of the commission which will leave for London in May are B. F. Bu- chanan, lieutenant governor of Vir- ginia: Richard L. Brewer. speaker Of the house of delegates, and John L. Williams, clerk.
 The statue was to have been pre- sented in 1914 but the ceremonies were delayed by the world war. Ira falgar Square is understood to have been selected by the British govern rnent as the site for the statue, which is of bronze although the original is in marble. It is expected appropri- ate ceremonies will be conducted at the time of the presentation, the date of which has not been set.
