The fact that Camp Sheridan is less than & mile distunt from, and in plain sight of the soldiers’ home, adds interest to to the com- ing meeting, Nearly all old soldiers have a desire to see for themsclves how the state provides for her disabled veterans and will embrace the opportutity to visit the home while nere, while on the other hand the in- mates of the home, if unable to reach the camp can look down upon the tented field and dream of troublous times of war, when they ‘were young and eager for the fray. Few can realize the Herculean task set be- fore the local committces, and in tois con- nection it might be well to remark tnat the few posis scattered over the state, who are inclined to protest if they do not fina every. thing exactly to.suiv them, on going into camp shovla remember thatif sverything was sereno as a summer’s morning the war days would not be very vividly recalled.

THE RESULT OF RECENT LEGISLATION Expenses Likely to Be Largely Increased by the Eight Hour Measure—New Plans May be Necessary for the Loeal PostoMce, 513 FOURTERNTI STRRET, WasiiNaroy, D. C., Aug. 16. Before his departure for the west tonight Supervising Architect Edbrooke toid Tne Bk oorrespondent that the operation of the new eight-our law might make a serious aifference in the plans for the Omaha building. When the law went into effoct a number of bids for building contracts were pending in the office and Mr. Edbrooke sent them with a copy of the new law so that they might be raised to conform with it. They came back increased by 10, 12 and 15 per cont, Basing his estimates on these increases Mr. KEdorooke says that ho believes the new law will make the government pay 12 per cent more than it has been paying or its building work The government spends about $25,000,000 & year on public buildings. S0 the economic democratic congress which would not spend a cent for now buildings Wasmixaroy Bureav or Tine Bee, } | this year has passed u law which will make them hereafter cost the government £3,000,000 more than formerly. The new vill will work a hardship in places wheve an appropriation has beon made unless congress does some- thing to chango the conditions. Under Mr. . brookes's estirrate the Omaha building as planned wiil cost nearly $150.000 less than the estimates. Unless the congress will appro- priate this additional amount the plans will be changed and the building will be made much less ornamental. Mr. Edbrooke will recommend that con- eress make the additional appropriation, Mr. [idbrooke says that he 1s golng to Omaha by way of Chicago on a general tour ol inspection. ~ He suys that his reports from Omaha are that the work on the building there is progressing favorably. Chamirman Cartor Actively ut Work. Chairmun Carterof the republican natioual committee spent the day in Washington. He talked politics, was presentea with a gold watch and chain by the employes of the gen- eral land office’ and saw 4 num- ber of men who are more or less interesting in the campaign. One interview of considerable significance was that with General W. W. Dudley, who was treasurer of the campaign committee in 1553, Ihere have been dark bints that Mr. Dudley would not help with s political knowleage in the coming campaign, because he was not satisfied with the way 1o which President Harrison had treated him. After his talk ith Dudloy, Mr. Cartor said that it could ated that Dudley would do all he could for the republican ticket. Ho was ready to work with the chairman to that end, Mr. Carter says that tho situation is all tuat could be desirea. There 15 no break in the republican lines and he expects succoss. He added: “In the north- west whoro the democrats have been fond of chasing rainvows, wa feel perfecily assured of carrying every state. Wo have informa- tion that there is some disatfection among tho Swades in Minnesota who were not en- tirely satisfied witn the nominatfon of Judge Neson for governor, and that the democrats ana farmers alliance party are trying to make some canital out of it. We understand they are not meeting with any great success. Third Party Movements. “So faras the third party movement goes it ill not render doubtful any of the north- western states, with the possible excoption of Nebraska, where they are making a deter- mined fight. Our information is that the democrats havo practically abondoned their cause in Nebraska, and if they turn their full vote over to the farmers alliance thoy may make some trouble for us, On the other hand, where the democrats abandoned their party 1n Kansas, overything 18 lookit.g bright and cheerful and there isno doubt about carrying that state.” From time to time Chairman Carter has been represented as beiug “all broke up' over the management of the campaign, and the statoment has been made that he was not able to cope with the executive responsibili- ties, His appearance bolies those state- ments and his conversation shows that he is managing the campaign very much as he has conducted the geneval land “office and other public positions which he has occupied, and that he is running the campaign upon o' suc- cessful basis, He says that tho details are beiug rapidly arranged and that withio a weak or ten days all the work will be par- celed out to the men who have been dosig- nated to take charge of different divisions and sections. Miscellancous, Although no definite word has been re- ceived from tho president on the subject it is understooa that his latter of acooptance will be ready about August 25, It will be given to the press at Wushington. It will be rather long, for in it the president will have his only opportunity to approach political is- sues as acandidate. The aignity of his offico makes it impossidlo that he should make any political speecnos during tho campaign.

Chief George Hale of the Kansas City fire department appeared before the board and explained the workings of the Hale water tower, which Chief Gallighn had asked the board to purchase. The Hale tower is built on the tel pe plan, and an apparatus stunding on Seventeenth street could throw o stream of water down nnto the roof of Tie Bee building, or lowered so as to flood any floor of any tall building. One of the Hale machines suitable for work in this city would cost $4,500, and Me. Hartman was strongly 1o favor of ordering one at once.
