brother ftuo swearing, but We IN
always sisd 10 sd1ishtsa him on pub
Lilo ousseoas and to answer his ques'
tioas specifically. So, to his question.
"vho mado the debt'' OF Nebrpska.
10 answer: A defective revensue law.
under which IL was impossible to naise
enough money 70 pay the necessary
expenses Of the state and provide fol-
the needs Of our growing state insti-
tution&.
The trouble has been, not extrava-
CAN'T appropriations. but low assess
ments. The man who "swears at
the l~egislatu.es under which our state
debt has accumulated, places himself
on record - IN enemy to our state
u~niversity and every other institution
In tho state. the price OF whose
growth il represented in our state
debt. and whose growth under our
antiquated revenue system would have
been impossible without it. True,
our Constitution limits the states in
debtedness to 500. QUO. So might .
husband when he il first married limit
his wife 70 two dollars . week to
provide for the table. But when .
family Of six children has come, the
mother will find Q can 70 feed
them. even IL she has to over.step her
husbands allowance. and most people
would give her praise for feeding her
children rather than swear 1t" her
for oversteppinR . rule and creating .
debt for her children's sustenance.
Still. II our brother insists on criti-
cising the mon who have, BY careful
and eoonomical management. built ny
our state institutions till they are an
object Of pride to every citizen and
built them ut the cost of . state debt
that will be Insignificant under the
new revenae law. We are glad to give
him the statistics SO that he may
swear at the right fellows here
after.
Ii is clear, Of course. that the in.
GREASE in the state debt from year TO
year is measured BY the difference
between thu total appropriations and
the total assessment for the same
year. Now, taking the period from
1898 to 1902 which sandwiches the
populist administrations between re-
publican administrations. and con-
sidering the fact that appropriations
for that period wer about uniform.
the variations In the total assessments
for the came period will indicate the
increase or decrease Of the state Gebt,
the lowest assessment indicating the
increase in the debt. Here are
