TUESDAY MORNING, JUNE "a.

more or less of them occurred in each year.
Appropriations are always made to cover esti-
mates and while i'll rare instances the eSti-
mates have been too low, in most cases they
have overrun, and the balance has reverted to
the treasury. But there are circumstances
connected with this appropriation for the State
Library, which were well known to the writer
and willfully suppressed by him, because falr
statement would have completely emasculated
his pretty story of saving to the State OF sew
enty-ive dollars, through the ability and homes
ty of the new Superintendent of the Public
Buildings and Greenback carpenter.
Now the facts of the case are these: The
Legislature on the recommendation of the ap-
preparation committee, made an appropriation
of one hundred and fifty dollars to finish of an
additional room for the accommodation of the
State Library. The purpose as stated by the
committee was to finish off room over the
Senate Chamber, to be connected by a door
with the document room, and in this room the
rapidly accommodating documents were to be
placed.
The appropriation was made with this ex-
press understanding, and has the will
of the Legislature been carried out? Not
at all. A cheap case of implanted shelves has
been placed through the centre of the old doc
ument room, and this is all and if seventy
five dollars were paid for this insignificant job,
the carpenter received more than it was worth.
L will build one like it in every respect, except
that it shall be painted, for fifty dollars. And
this insignificant affair has been seized upon
by the Greenback organ here and made the
subject of distorted and untruthful story,
which its Democratic allies have fastened to
copy and exult over. Truly they must be
short of material when they make use of such
rotten trash and this is great cry and little
WOOL Eastern Argus please copy. QUID.
