Congressman Asked for Appropriation
for Public Building.
. Congressman Hardy writes to cor
rect an editorial paragraph that ap
peared in the Pilot a short time ago,
in effect that no bill had been Intro
duced in Congress asking for a gov
ernment building for Bryan. Such bill
was Introduced Dec. 3rd, 1907, but Mr.
Hardy does not think that any town
in Texas will get an appropriation at
this session. Following ig copy of the
bill:
A BILL

Among the Eagle and Pilot's ex
changes that are hostile to Attorney
General Davidson several give all the
credit for the oil trust victory to As
sistant Attorney General Lightfoot
and at least one says "the work was
done by Gregory & Batts and Geo. W.

general's assistants did good work,
but the valor of the soldiers In a cam

due the victorious general.
