Two bills reported by the com
mittee on appropriations give some
indication of what the members really
have in mind as to the probable date
of adjournment Senator Thomas
upon behalf of the committee rec
commended the passage of both meas
ures which provide an appropriation
covering compensation, one for men,
bers and one for the employees up
to and including the Goth OF tie
present month.
Senator Davidson of Muskogee cal
ed up and secured the passage OF
house Bill No 179 which is so framed
as to apply to Muskogee county only
Ii cuts the salary Of the county
treasurer court clerk and county
clerk of that county from $4,000 &c
se.40O per year: cuts the chief dep
utv in the treasurer's office from
S125 per month to $780, and the dep
uties in the other two offices from
$50 to $50 per month. In some in
stances extra clerical help is pro.
vided for but in the main the senator
claims that it will bring about
saving to his home people of prac'
tically $4,000 per year
Exception Taken.
Senator Bickel took exception t
| the action of the joint committed
wherein it had voted to recommend
that no appropriation be made fol
additional buildings at the state in
stitution for the insane at Supply. He
submitted in writing a short bu
pointed statement with reference tC
the conditions at Supply and secured
reversal of the committee action
In presenting the matter Senator
Bickel said
II wasn't present when the join
session of the senate committee OF
appropriations and public buildings
met and passed on the bill for
building at Fort Supply. The state

committee that the state had no titlt
to the 7,11O acres on which the asy

does not have fee simple title to thi
property. but the UniteG States gov
ernment gave the state the use o
the property so long as it is use,
for asylum purposes.
"a little over a year ago two o
these buildings burned and the stat
collected the insurance amounting t
about $4,000 1t would be folly t
claim it had no title after collectin
this insurance.
Asylums are Full.
The asylums are all full and NOR
room is necessary somewhere. Their
are about 600 patients in the Suppl
institution and ii would be convenien
and economical to have the insan
sent from the northwest part OF tn
state to Supply.
while | do not consider $500
adequate. yet in view of the fac
that the demands on the state ar
heavy. | am satisfied it is the bes
that can be done at this time"
