Packing company differs from oth

to be associated with the company
at no additional expense or burden.
The growers are highly Interested
and all those visited in the dfstrict
are said to be highly receptive to
the organization of this kind? of an
association as they have met with
keen disappointment in prices for
produce and the markets fn the
last few years. ; I ;

Representative Kilham ; to
Introduce Bill for 400,- ;
000 in -Future''- U
Believing ihathe state has out
grown the present capitol building,
Representative H. 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
