For e briefly the most important reason which led them to dis ugprove of the measure rec the blennfum which will close March 31 these Institutions will have cost the state in round figures $1,000,000. This encrmous sum has been expended for the treatment, men, women, boys and girls and babics. It may strike the average taxpayer in these drouth-stricken times that there 1s something radically wrong in a system that nditure of 0,000 a year for the care of less than 3,000 people, a the most of whom are kept in the cheapest form of clothing and fed upon the most (Here | Simple foods. The following comparative row a little light upon the present em in vogue in this stato. The rst column of figures refers to the amount of money appropriated for these thirteen Ine stitutions for the past two years.

Many people naturally nder how it is that with no apparent in- o in inmates, or at least with such a small prospeet’ve incrcase that the number Is receive, €uch large increases in their appro- priations. This matter can be better un- 1 the history of cach of the inst'tutions and running backward through a period cf years. An casy examplo will be the Institute for the Feeble Minded Youth at Beatrice. In referring to the Beat- rice institution it must not be inferred that it is an exception to the rule. The state of Ne- y swindled In a let for majority of the contracts it has house, the penitentiary, the dilapidated strue- tures at the State university, at Hastings, at Norfolk, all attest to the fact that the state But, take the institut'on at Beatrice as a 5, by a series provided for new institu- trice. The Beats d as the Insti- tions at Norfolk and at Be provide a fund for the maintenance of the in-' stituton the legislature enacted a law di- recting the impositicn of a tax of one-elghth | ¢ dollar’s worth of taxahle property in the state, The legislators, who tly themselves stood sadly in need of riety of instruction to be given at the institution, honestly or dishonestly, believed that the oneeighth mill levy would serve to maintain the institution.
