She has spent much time in Car
son City in the interests of the bill
time which the State is paying for.
and time which she is required under
her contract with the state to spend
at the University attending to her
duties.
The present condition of the state
treasury does not warrant the eX-
penditure of $50 900 nor of $4,000 for
a historical society and like a few
more professors of the University
or rather who are not at the Univ
ersity, though they draw their sal
aries with promptitude. her time
would be better spent at the duties
for which she draws the money from
the taxpayers.
