sion,

LINCOLN, Neb., March 11.--(Special.)-
BY unanimous consent Of the house McClay
OF Lancaster THIS morning introduced II.
r. 48S with the governors recommends
ton, empowering the board of public lands
and buildings to petition the city council

the first time.i
The house th4ns went into committee of
the whole and resumed consideration of
the revenue bill, beginning with section so.
An amendment by Loomis OF Dodge was
adopted to section 81, striking out the
words that operate on the assessment
plan, have no capital stock and make no
dividends" relating to the taxation of Ne
braska life, fire or accident insurance or
surety companies. except fraternal bene-
ficiary associations and mutual companies
on their gross premiums.
Section SO was the cause of prolonged
and sharp and at times, pointed debate.
1t was over the tax that should be ex-
acted of peddlers. The original section
provided an annual tax of So outside of the
limits of towns or cities for pedestrians,
SIS for peddlers with one-horse vehicles
and $25 for two-horse vehicles. An amend
ment by Rouse OF Hall changed these ag-
ures respectively to $25, $50 and SIS.
When that part Of the bill dealing with
corporations was reached, Gilbert OF Doug
las proposed the amendment looked for to
change the bill so as to admit street rail-
ways, water works, electric and gas COM
panies to the system Of taxation proposed
in the case Of express, telegraph and tole-
phone companies, to tax their gross earn
ings for one year as a franchise tax, In
addition to the levy on tangible property.
After a lengthy and spirited debate the
amendment was put to vote and lost.
An amendment by DeIes DeTnier of Cass
provided to assess by the state board OF
equalization instead of me local assessor,
corporations operating railroad bridges or
highways independent OF railroad com
panies, compelling the valuation fixed by
the state board to be returned to the
local assessor as a basis for taxation.
Ten Eyck opposed the amendment for
he said it would exempt from local tax
alton the East Omaha and Omaha & Coun-
Gil Bluffs motor bridges over the Missouri
river and let them be valued exclusively
by the state board.
Deles Dernier cast the lone vote for his
amendment, which therefore was lost.
At Sis O'Clock the house adjourned until
8 o'clock Thursday morning.
Governor Mickey today sent to the house
a request that these items be incorporated
in the general appropriation bill: Thirty
Thousand dollars for a hospital at the Sol
dlers' home at Milford; $1,000 for a stand

There is, of course, a limit to the cura-

fact tina this is seldom reached. There
are cases of disease so deep-rooted that
they will never be cured.
1t Is nevertheless a profound fact that

tihc food in the world, has effected mar
velous results in cases where medical
science has given up the sufferer and It
seemed there was no hope. Veterans OF

REPORT ON STATE PRINTING
senate Committee is of Opinion that
Some Reform is Neces-
sary.
From a Stan Correspondent

LINCOLN, March 11.-(Special)-The
senate committee on accounts and ex-
penditures instructed to examine into the
workings of the state printing board thinks
the expense of the state printing is en-
tirely too much and in its report today
made recommendations to overcome the
evil. Following is the substance Of the re-
port:
Your committee on accounts and ex-
penditures instructed to investigate the
workings of the state printing board, have
duly examined the records of said board
and find that only a portion of the printed
chased by and through the printing board
have been so purchased, and this not only
during the last biennium. but during the
committee as to Why ali supplies had not
been purchased by said board, the officials
of the board stated that it was due to the
failure of the heads of departments and
state institutions to furnish quarterly es-
Inmates as is plainly required by law. In
to the last biennium elected the same In
formation. The board was of the opinion
thai IL the law should be observed by all
situations. and the entire printing supplies
of the state be purchased and contracted
for by the printing board, as directed by
law, the costs of same would be materially
reduced.
Your committee visited each department
of state and by the heads of each in turn
~ 90 ShAAA A1@N
ennium the heads Of each department,
from the governors office down.. and the
heads of each state institution had pur-
chased stationery and their needed office
supplies as they saw fit, aiming to place
orders to the best advantage possible.
Their attention was called to the law gov
erning the purchase of such supplied. and
by each IL was admitted that the proyis-
ions of the statutes had been disregarded.
Ignorance of the law was given by
some as the reason for such disregard,
while these stated that they were familiar
with the law, but had simply followed in
the footsteps of their predecessors. An
agreed that the law should and would be
strictly adhered to hereafter, and each was
OF the opinion that such a course would
result I'm a great saving to the state.
A further conference was held with the
printing board and II was agreed that
hereafter the board would insist hat all
printing and printed supplies must be
furnished through and by the printing
board, as contemplated by law.
The committee suggests two plans-an
appropriation should be made to cover the
entire costs of state printing. advertising
for bids and the salary Of the experts, or
an appropriation should be made to cover
the salary of the printing expert, for adj
vertisiag and a specific appropriation for
each department of the state government.
In the report the committee favors the
latter plan.
Following this report. s. F. 275, provid-

These notes were again sent to the bank
pending the expected crash. The bank
showed deposits amounting to S32,C47.6S, of
which $4,000 was due the state. The Burns
notes were among the assets"
The attorney general took measures TO
protect the state. He made a demand for
the Burns notes. He said the money had
never been loaned by the bank, but had
~compatriots by the ~defaultllg state treas
urer. He applied to. the comptroller OF the
currency for an order for the delivery of
the notes. In the meantime he brought
suit for the other $4,000.
Pending the negotiations with the comp
troller of the currency, suit was brought
cured amounting 70 $5,3S3. Is. This was on
the 18th of July, 1897. Later, after eNecu-
ton had been returned unsatished. the
judgment was put up at auction on the
streets and sold for 800.
According TO the bank books which, as
has been stated, are now in a certain Of

peared on these seven notes with Joseph
Burns are Ed Bignell and b. r. Cowdry.
In two or three places where these notes
are listed in the loans and discounts and
the trial balance books their names appear
with that OF Burns. These books plainly
show where the item of SIS, 21O.05 appears
that the "1' and "5" we're scratched out
and in their places we're written "20,"
making it appear that the deposit was
