mended to pass in the senate was the one

hibit at the Seattle exposition. The gem

appropriated for repair and servant hire
at the governors mansion was increased
from $4,000 to 5000. The action OF the
committee reducing the appropriation Of
81. 900 for the experiment station at North
Platte to $4,000 was reversed under an
agreement that the appropriation for the
payment of wolf bounties should be cat
down from $4,000 to $4,000.
