REPORT 15 MADE UPON PUSIUFFIGE PHUJEGTS OTARTED IN WYOMING WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.—{Special to The Casper Tribune.)}—Through Senator Warren the Tribune has learned that the secretary of the treasury has furnished the senate with certain data in reference to the status of federal buildings mat- ters, where authorizations have al- ready been made for acquisition of sites, construction of buildings on sites already government-owned, or for both sites and buildings. The list of cities ana towns covers every state in the Union except Montana, and includes two projects in Alaska. Nearly three hundred projects are listed. As for Wyoming, the following information was furnished by the secretary: BUFFALO—Site acquired Septem- ber 14, 1911; cost, $7,000; balance authorized and available for build- ing, $62,500; estimated amount now needed for building, $97,500; increase in Inmit required, $35,000. CODY—Site acquired April 20, 1912; cost, $4,500; balance authorized and available for building, $50,000; estimated amount now needed for building, $125,000; increase in limit required, $75,000. GREEN RIVER—Site acquired Ostober “6, 1911; cost, $6,000—full amount authorized; estimated amount needed for building, $70,000. NEWCASTLE—Site acquired De- cember 22, 1916; cost, $4,400—$600 less than full amount authorized; estimated amount needed for bulld- ing, $75,000. In a separate lst of projects for which drawings have been prepared, the Wyoming projects of Buffalo and Cody appear. - Advertisements for bids for those two proposed buildings have been published repeatedly, but no bids within the present limit of cost have ever been received. It is the opinion in Washington that there is perhaps a chance— though a very remote one—that an omnibus public buildings bill may be formulated during the present congress. No such legislation has been enacted since before the World war. ae WIDE RANGE IN LOGAL TEMPERATURES SHOWN DURING LAST MONTH With a temperature range of from 29 degrees below zera on the first ang 49 degrees abo seventh, January exhihited of weather to the people of Casper.

Tucker, tank contractor, at Salt Creek, this morning pleaded guilty to petty larceny before Justice Puntenney and were given fines of $100 each and 90 days in the county Jail.

Casper Mirror Works We. are prepared to take care RAIDS PRODUGE LITTLE LIQUOR INTHERMOPOLIS Dozen Pics Visited But Officers Find No Evidence A general raid for booze was put on during the week by, city, county ang state officers. A dozen places were visited, among them six resi- dences, but the raiders came out of their efforts empty handed so far as intoxicating liquor is con- cerned. All of which is convincing evidence that there is no intoxicat- ing quer in Thermopolis. -. Yes! Thermopolis with a large floating population on account of) visitors at the mineral hot water springs bas had an unenviable’ reputation as a place for easy Uquor, but the town is not deserving of this. Re- ports have been circulated that Thermopolis moonshine would at a rock crusher’ in bed with “the cramps. The result of the recent raid is evidence there is no ground for this report. Probably no Wyoming town has shown proportionately as few HMquor convictions as Thermopolis, which gives reason to hope that some day this town will be as dry as Mr. Volstead intended it should be.
