LiKoot.x , July 21. [ Spcchl to TUB Hr.B.J
There Is a lively ImprnMion about the sti'o
house that the superintendent of thoNorfoik
Insane asvlumjs evincing too great an anxiety
to run Into debt so early In the biennial
fiscal period. Ho has written a very plain-
tlvo letter to the State Board of PublUs
Lands and Buildings , In which ho draws a
most dismal pletu.ro of tlio finances of the
institution. He complains that ho has been
compelled to reduce his piy roll nnd Inti
mates that a great many of the patients vvill
have to bo returned to the counties from
whence they came , In order that the state
may come out oven.on its appropriation. He
winds tip his touching appeal for nytnnithy
by asking the board whether ho had bettor
run into debt.
The State 'Hoard of Public Limls and
Bnlldlntrs has very properly Informed the
Norfolk superintendent that he must on no
account go Into debt to maintain the Institu
tion In other words , ho is expected to do
Just what the legislature Intended that ho
should do conduct thu institution upon an
economical basis nnd reduce expenses to thu
irlnlmum. The legislature appropriated
$ .3.1.000 for the maintenance of the institu-
tlon for the two years commencing April I of
the present year. This ts a decreiso of 129-
400 from the appropriation of two vcais ago ,
nnd It may be possible that the end of the
f.cil period will show that ttio amount is
too small ; butfinm tbo present state of the
nsj linn's finances It looks as if thoNorfoik
superintendent is frightened bcforo ho gets
into the woods.
Condition of tlin Sovornl VinuU.
An examination of the appropilatlon hook
shows that while ho is allowed f5,00 ( ) for hrs
own salary , ho has drawn but J141 III on the
now npprnprl uion So. persorially ho is all
light. Iho decision of thn supreme court
has enabled thu auditor to i > warrants .
U | on the old hospital fund , there being n con-
Hldcrnblo nn'Oiml of lilouey jet remaining
unexpended In that fund. Consequently it
has not been uei essary logo into tire regular
appropriation extensively. On the fuel
and light fund the appropriation bus been
reduced bj ? b7l 20 and thi'iu was $12,000 in
thu fund originally when the account was
opened. The board and clothing fund , orla-
tnally S30MX ( ) , has been touched for W.410 SO ,
leaving a b ilancoof something like $27,000 to
bo drawn upon bufoio poverty stares the
Norfolk asylum in the faio
The nppiopriation for drugs , etc , Is un
touched , and so is that for furniture and
bedding , carpets and curtains Of the $ .100
set aside for books and stationery , S1U 25 has
been expended , leavinir a liberal margin for
the balance or the two i cars. The music
and amusement fund is still untouched. Out
of J500 for repiirs and improvements , $31 03
has been expended. Ttio telegraph , tele
phone and postage fund has been dipped
into to the extent of S'Jl.tt. ! , leaving about
? .iOO for the superintendent to draw upon.
The superintendent pays 8100 per year for
his telephone rental , while the churgo to-the
business men of Norfolk is uut MS uur jear ,
and there Is a lively suspicion that he might
secure a reduction In tills expense.
Not : v single fund has been exhausted , and
in the light of this fact the superintondont'a '
rt > ( | uuHt for permission to involve the state
in debt comes a little early In the day.

The State Board of Transportation today
received an otllcl.il notice from the manager
of thu B. & M. railroad to the effect that ail
freight tariffs , billing rates or special rates
of any kind uppUrng between points In No'
braskn on that line within the state of Ne
braska will expire .luly 21. The * general
manager further Infomis the board that the
tariffs in accordance with the Nebraska
maximum rate law , effective on August 1 ,
will be prepared nnd mailed to nil agents at
an early date.
The effect of the order will bo to wipe out
all special tariffs heretofore enjoiod bv ship
pers In Lincoln , Fremont , Beatrice and other
interior points in the stato. The special
commodity rates vvill likewise bo effected ,
and the order will fall especially heavy upon
the beet sugar men of Giaiul Island and Nor
folk , the brick manufacturers , paper mills at
Lincoln , sand shippers , and the starch and
canning factories and the Kearney cotton
mill.
In this connection it may bo stated that
the railroad bill prepared and introduced by
the late Senator Clarke of Douglas county
contained u provision which would secure to
the manufacturers of beet sugar , tw ino , etc ,
a continuation of the favorable terms which
thov hud always enjojcd. Clarke's bill was
killrd by the legislature , however , arid this
clause , which would undoubtedly have been
of great value to Nebraska manufacturers ,
was killed with It.
. . , Something of n Complication.
Shortly after the Farmers State bank at
Shubott failed the supreme court issued an
order drroetlng the bink to show cause on
the 20th rust , why the bank should not bo
placed In the hands of a reculver'and its
business wound up in accordance with the
law. George W. Uoodell had bocn named as
temporary r eccivor and had taken posses
sion pending thu further action of the cotitt.
In the meantime ) the creditors trad attached
certain property owned by the absconding
cashier and the attorney general's adieu had
taken stops to pruvent the depositors from
losing anj thing ny thn ntt ichmunt. Ycstur-
d'vy tjio tii.io in which the hank could show
cause why n receiver should not bu appointed
oxplrpd , but Attorney Frank Martin of
Falls City went before Chief Justice
Maxwell at Fremont and secured an exten
sion of time until August 1. Before the at
torney general's office could learn of thfl
lact , however , It had prepared thu papers to
contest the attachment proicodings insti
tuted against the bank. The attachment
case cynics up for hearing on the ! Mth , but
before the legal department of the state can
protect the Interests of thu depositors a per
manent receiver must bo appointed. The
action of the chief Justice has complicated
the matter to a uniaidorablu extent
The order of thu chief Justice extending
the tlmo until August 1 was Hied with the
clcik of the supremo'couit nt noon today. It
Is based upon an aflldavit of Frank Martin ,
attorney for the stockholders of tha bank ,
who intiiuAtes b thu tlrst ef the next month
he will either bo able to show that a re
ceiver is unncccH3.il J or that some other re-
colver ether than thu ono already appointed
temporarily should bo appointed.

Today ono of the most uotablo features was

Notwithstanding the fact that the city
has been unable to dispose of Its piving
bonds owing to the stringency of the money
market , Chairman Hicks says that the
IJonrd of Public Works is making gratifying
progress in public improvements. The
pavers are at work on C.istO street , on F
street from Seventeenth sticot to Twentieth
nnd on L street between Sixth and Eighth
btreots. The bunds to pay for the paving
have not jut been sold , but the contractors
are going ahead with the work , being per
fectly willing to take their chances in gut
ting their pay. The city settles with them
by certificates of the amounts duo them from

, these coitrilcates are
taken at a slight discount by local capital
ists. In this way Lincoln has solved a prob
lem which Is prodding the wjts o ( the au

of local capitalists alone has enabled tha city

in spite of the financial depression.

BURNING PROTESTS.
Two Citizens of Lincoln Kxprnan Indignation
nt Olllcml Corruption.
Throughout the recent lecislativo session
and impeachment trial at Lincoln THE Bi'.u
was compelled to indulge In plain talk con
cerning the insufferable conditions which
made possible the corrupt raids upon the
state treasury. The Lincoln Journal and
Call , two pauera pledged for the protection
and defense of the Capital city rlngstcrs ,
condemned Tnn BEE'S utterances and con-
strufd them as attacks upon the good people
of that city as .veil as upon the political plun
derers. THE BEE all the while , however ,
was in receipt of assurances from
some of the best men of Lincoln
that its course was approved and Applauded.
Even to this day letters are being received
from these whoso indignation rises to fever
heat at the political conditions now existing
in Lancaster county. Two such letters wo
reproduce today. If the newspapers above
lofcrrod to imagine that their policy of sup
pressing news and apologizing for unfaithful
ofllcials moots the endorsement of the average -
ago taxpayer of Lincoln , lot them road these
burning protests :
In Dullnnco nt Jtntlro.
LINCOLN , Neb , July 14 To the Editor of
TUB BFB : 1 believe you are entitled to a
great amount of commendation for jour
stand throughout thn impeachment business
nnd it seems as everything falls short of
honest manliness hero , in dellanco of justice.
That prince of scoundrels that has stolen
this bank clean has by the use of that
money manipulated nnd wheedled every
thing in his owu favor , thro Jgtr the many
ramincations of corruption that ho bo al
lowed to confess to the minor charges of the
indictment , and now tlio high authorities
nave been trying to II nd some easy place for
him to servo out his term , under the as
sumed idea of helping the poor depositors.
Tlio only thing that ho can do to help them
Is to bting out of its hiding place the stolen
money and pay it out to thorn. Ho Is , and
has been for i onrs , the greatest corrupter
of pirtics nnd oftlcials this part of the coun
try has had , nnd his hand hath not lost Us
cunning yet.
Now comes the next part of the program ,
vv hen the state through its bondsmen will
endeavor lore-cover its lost funds. You are
ilk-lit when vou state that it will bo lost to
the state of Nebraska. Wo have three law
yers in this place that are known to be "ban-
dlcis of Juiies , " and after their work is done
the trial then is n farce , either for murderer
or anything whoralargo money ts at atako.
Can vou not got on these villains and in
some way break partially the Infamous cor-
ruptionists that this capital Is Infested with ?
You are tlio only man so far that has tried
to stand up fur the right In these matters ,
except Judge Maxwell. Now the faice will
go on. They have moro money than Belts ,
and will certainly get out of it without any
trouble.
If these things denote our high civlliza
tion nnd superiority to other nations , it
seems to reverse the order of things and wo
shall ere long want n stronger and more oftl
cle nt government. JUSTICE.

The Barber Asphalt company's bills for

the company desires to replace w ith bonds.
The re ) > air claim of the company for the
first nix months of the year , amounting to
til,110 48 , was presented , but action do-
feued until the next meeting. The claim
has been leferrod to City Engineer Hose-
water and ho submitted his report. Mr.
Hosowater passed judgment as follows :
"So far as the claim is concerrcd , I con
sider It not justiliod. Under the ( Oiitiact of
the Barber Asphalt Paving company with
the city to maintain the asphalt pavements
in good condition it is presumed that such
stieols are to bo kept in continuous good con
dition through the year and not rupaiu-d
spasmodicallyvvhcn the streets are tendered
impassablo. An examination of thosticuts
cmbiaccd in this contract in the first part
of thu month and again on the With , shows
many of rho streets in exceedingly bad con
dition , with largo holes worn down to the
concrete , and in many places with stagnant
water upon the streetdisfiguring itsappoar-
anco.bosidcs creating an unsanitary condition
In Us neighborhood. On the greater per
tion of the area embraced in the bill under
their contract very little , if any , repairs of
work have boon done. The least that should
bo done Is a deduction from the bill for so
much of su3h streets as has been loft un
touched , to the detriment of the street and
public interest. I Invo marked crosses op-
l > osito such Items as in my opinion should bo
rejected , and the llgures one-half opposite
such wlioro oao-hulf the bill should bo do-
ductod. Thesu will aggregate t'JSS Dli , and
that amount Is the least that should bo de
ducted from the account sumnltted.
II Hall was again given the contract for
grading Jones street from Twenty-second tea

street , and Twenty-fifth street from Leaven-
worth to the south line of Marsh's addition.
