Senate Road Bill Killed The effort of Senator Laverty a members of the senate to pass a bill which would contribute to good roads In Ne- braska have proven unavailing. The mem- bers of the house this afternoon with little ceremony \Indefinitely postponed “the bill after it had passed the senate. 8. F. 91, by Laverty, provided that the State Board of Equalization should levy one-fourth of 1 mill annually for the crea- tion of @ roaq fund. After it had been de- cided by the prgperty owners, county com- | missioners and the State Highway commis- sion to build a permanent road, the state should pay one-half of the cost, the county | 5 per cent and the property owner abutting the road 15 per cent. Thes money collected {by the state from the various countics | should be spent in the countles to an amount equal to that paid in. In a com- panion bill, which was also killed, the | State Board of Irrigation was made the State Highway commission. Nettleton of Clay county led the fight against the bill, arguing that it was an interference with the county for-the state to take & hand In the matter as provided in the law.

When the bill came up Taylor of Custer and Taylor of York both spoke against ft and not a volce was raised in its defense Taylor of Custer told how the senate was spending money for the university by rea- son of the medical college in Omaha and how it had cut down the appropriation for a normal school in western Nebraska. He thought the university could get along without the school of cltizenship. Taylor of York said there was enough politics {n the oniversity now. So the bill was killed with little trouble. P But when the committee arose Kotoue of Richardson county moved not to concur in the report of the committee, but to recom- mend the bill for passage. This carried be- cause the members who had voted against Mr. Bryan's pet idea in the committee of the whole where no record was made, were afraid to record themselves against him when there was a chance of the presiden- tal candidate finding it out.

The bill has created considerable Interest and it has been hard fought, so when it reached the house in such bad shape sev- eral of the members began to wonder why. The bill will be amended in the house to include the portions left out TO ADDING APPROPRIATIONS Senate in Committee of the Whole Raises the Amount. (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, March 27.—(Spectal.)—Ninety- seven thousand dollars in appropriations was added to the general maintenance bill by the senate committee of the whole to- day above the figures of the senate finance committee, which carried an increase of $321,000 over the bill as it came from the house. The house biil carried an appro- priation of $1,965,128. The senate committee reccmmended changes, making the figures $2,286,418, and the scnate committee of the whole added enough to make the total $2, 383,418, Consideration of the hill was forced today, the amendments of the commiftee not being printed. ' The new items were as follows: Site for hospital in connection with medical school in Omaha.... New building for nurses and atend- aats at Norfolk.. Traveling expenses for district judges Increase for employes at Milford Sol- diers' home....... Wing for State bullding Hog cholera investigations & Overruling the cut to 350,000 of §76,000 house appropriation for normal training in high schools, making dif- terence in bill % 4 attdrney general prosecution ex- penses, increase......... § 1,000 m.wmm ‘soclety 25,000 5,000 8,000 407,000 Included in the bill as recommended to pass is every item favored by the finance colmmittee and published at length in The Bee today, with the above additions. This includes the $10,00 for an extension of a sewer for the Grand Island Soldiers' home, $10000 for a fine stock coliseum for the state fair grounds at Lincoln and $50,000 for “physical valuation of railroads.” The bill reads in this form and If the legislature seeks to confer any added powers in the physical valuation line it fis doubtful whether the bill wil cover such expense. Fuller of Seward made a fight against the $10,00 item for a sewer at Grand Island and declared the senators had made more trades to vote for this item than they had for any other thing in the bill. Senator Miller said that the Hall county contingent, which had beaten his Lincoln charter had never come to himy about the matter until they had done “their dirty work,” but he saidhe believed it was due the old soldiers to put in the sewer and notwithstanding what Hall county had done for him, he would favor it. The senate concurred. A long discussion took place over the appropriation of $100,000 for a fine stock pavilion at the fair grounds, which Sena- tor King sald would be used but six days in the ytar and would lie idle for the re- mainder of the time. The item was favored by Miller, Gammlill, Donohoe and Ransom The enterprise of the promoters of the corn expositfon of Omaha In securing subscrip- tions themselves was referred to as a gulde for the State Falr board, but in reply it Total was sald the fine stock in dustry was some- | ——————————————————————— LESS MEAT Advice of Family Physician.

Provision for the wing of the State His- torical society building on the sits pro- vided in Lincoln, across from the capitol grounds and where $i0,000 has already been expended, was made on motion of Fuller of Seward. The amendment to the bill carried $5.00 and an appropriation of 000, as yet unexpended, from the ap- propriation of two vears ago. Early in the day the senate refused to give the attorney general $3.000 ‘additional for prosecution of corporation cases, but later reconsidered on motion of Oills and made the iocrease desired, making $15,000 in all for this purpose. Tibbets of Adams got in a side swipe at J. Z.
