ECONOMY IN SOUTH DAKOTA.
Appropriations 100000 Less Than
Two Years Ago.

Two Years Ago.
The total appropriations provided
Tor by the last legislative session out
side of the general bill. as included in
the special and continuing appropria-
tons, amount to 1855, O4456 which is
but little over half the special appro-
priations provided for two years ago.
The general appropriations bill for the
session Of this year exceeded that Of
two years ago by little over 5000, 900,
but the total combined appropriations
Of both classes were $210,S04.45 less
this year than two years ago.
Two years ago not only were appro-
priations fixed at the amounts asked
tor, but in several instances they were
increased to higher point than the
friends of the appropriations expected
10 get. If that policy had been carried
out this year, the total amount to be
met would have been fully as great,
If not greater, than for the former ses-
sion, but nearly every claim or request
for cash was pared down, and the
amounts were reduced to the lowest
possible point.
