W. Kilham.- of Portland, is preparing a bill for the appropriation of $400,000 for the construction of an adequate and modern state, office building. The measure is expected to be in troduced in a few days. ' J J The present structure is held to be old-fashioned and in a danger ous condition, particularly in case of fire. Representative Kilham has gone over the situation care-' fully and is far from satisfied with conditions. He believes that in case of firei there would be great loss of life, for with the building having been cut up from time to time and remodeled, the exits are hard-to find and particularly those employed in the basement would, in case of a fire, find it impossible to quit the building. ' - f : . Though an, old landmark and one of the finest buildings of its kind when constructed, the pass ing of a full half-century has plac ed the stamp of time upon the structure. Representative Kilham claims the building to be the fin est old ruin west of Independence hall, and while adequate for the needs of the main departments, the increase in employes and depart ments is such as to demand addi tional room, thus relieving much of the congestion '.. of the present structure and by the removal of many of the departments, make the to turn to fixing" as well as to start as those who own ; ' Woolen Mill ; , building adequate would remain. As it stands j today j house and senate, j when not used during the legislature!, are parti tioned off and u&ed jfor offices. These, and the records of each, should be fire-proof and modern should be In fireproof and modern would have roomjfor jthe commis sions in Portland which demand heavy rental moneys! from the state. : " NEW ELKS TEMPLE It Will Be a.Vpry Fine Build ing in Appearance as Well -As in Convenience " ' Work on the new Elks temple is progressing rapidly, and it is hoped to have jthe building com- pleted by the firs of May. xzasew" READY BYMAV FIST men are employed on the building," handle the best grade of cord and a crew like' that can not help wood that can be" obtained.
