4 Windser Nebraska , MONEY MEASURES House and Senate Entrenched and Ready to Fire Their Heavy Artil- lery Over This Question. } SENATE LIBERAL, HOUSE IS NOT (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, April 11,— (Special.)— While it may be considered that the thirty-fourth session of the Nebraska legislature is practically closed, ap- propriation bills still remain to be passed and enrolled. The two branches of the legislature are so far apart on what they con- sider the proper amounts to he ap- propriated and appear to be so strongly entrenched in their own ideas that it is useless to figure what the result will be. It simply remains to see which end of the legislature will give way to the other or whether both will recede somewhat from the positions they have taken throughout the session. Difference trom the Start. The trouble started right at the bemin- | ning bver the proposition of adopting the | new methods of running the legislature, | most of the trouble being on’ the matter | of the number of employés. The house | took the stand that the number should | be out fully one-half of that formerly | used while the senate contended that to | cut off about one-third the number was | sufficient to start on. | Both branches holding strictly to that | program the house got in its first blow on the senate by refusing to appropriate sufficlent finds in the maintenance bill passed at the opening. of the session for the payment of the amount of employes the senate decmed it needed. This called | for a conference committee with the re- ! sult that the house receded somewhat and | the senate got the amount it thought | necessary. — House Begine Cutting. | Then when it came to the general ap- | propriation bills/ the house under the | leadership of Representative Norton as| chafrman of the finance, ways and means | commitfee proteeded to cut the general maintenance biil in nearly every depart- ment from the university to the very smallest department in the state house, still farther cutting expenses by the con- solidation of several of the departments of the state. - Thie_was resented by the senate with the result that in mearly every case tho amounts which were cut by the house has been a frequent remark by members of the house as an excuse for voting for a cut in an appropriation tc say “Oh well let's cut it, the senate will put it back understood that the economy plan of the Liouse hae been carried out with the idea in the minds of many of the members needed.
