Governor Cruce said he could not
tell when the first or the money
would be spent. Contract covering
expenditure has not been executed,
although its terms have been agreed
upon. The governor points out that
he is acting in the capacity of a
private individual and that neither
he nor the state is in any way liable
unless the next legislature sees fit to
ratify the expenditure. If it does,
then the capital company's obliSa-
ton in the $1,000,000 proposition OF
last winter is waived by the payment
of 100000 and delivery of deeds to
the land.
Those who will have supervision of
the capitol's construction are the
members OF the state board OF affairs,
who are also state capitol commits

with ample vault and Office room.
In making their estimates for floor
space the state officers included the
maximum, but this, no doubt, will
be reduced considerably. Plans will
call for about s1,0O0,000 building.
Since the Capitol company pays for
the city only 100000, this means
that the legislature must appropriate
100000, and accept the risk of re
imbursing itself at some future time
out of the land donated by the com
pany.
