LINCOLN, Nov. 12. --(Special.)--Th
acarelty of securities ot the Kind available
lender the lan- for the Invmttnont of the
.permanent educational funds of the Mute
lias caused the Slate Poard of Educational
Lends and Fund? to consider raisins thp
;tieual premium rate which has been paid by
Treasurer Stuefer. State uarrnnts, which
drw Interrst at the rate of per cent, are
lielnK bnt.shf for the permanent fund at a
premium cf onc-hnlf of 1 per cent itnd tho
rremlum uually paid for county bonds is
cf a size thai will leave the slate n revenue
of at least 3 per cent. These rates are rsv
erned largely by competition. There are
Innumerable bidders for both state war
rants and county bonds and oftentimes th
elate loses a bIr bunch of securities through
the higher bidding of outside persons.
Former Treasurer Mestrve frequently paid
as hinh as 1 per cent for state warrants and
when the rate of Interest was . per cent
the premium sometimes was 2 per cent.
Treasurer Stuefer and his follow members
of the board belleveijhat whenever th" un
invested balance of tho funds Is In the
rl?hhorhood of, or over $100,000 II Is Rood
business policy to pay such a premium as
vlll leave the state not less than ft per cent
Bo far Treasurer Stuefer hns made no In
vffltments on this basis, but It Is likely that
In tho future ho will do so if authorized
by the board. He thinks it Is better to have
$100,000 of the money In the permanent
funds drawlns 3 per cent revenue than to
l-.avn It lyinK idle and drawing no Interest.

Hcrdmnn Grin Snlnrj- Decision.
Judge Holmes this afternoon decided
that U. H. L. Herdman. clerk of the su
preme court, is entitled to draw $1,500
from the state treasury for salary as court
reporter. In the opinion tho court Insists
that the office of reporter has been cre
ated according to the constitutional provi
sions and presumably represents the will
of the people. Such an oftlco Is not de
pendent upon the whim, caprice or neg
lect of a legislature and is entitled to tho
salary specified by law. Mr. Ilerdman's
waiver was held to have no effect what
ever, notwithstanding it was shown that he
gave It. ns. the consideration of a contract
which was fulfilled. This waiver was
signed with tho understanding that the
arlous bills to discontinue the fees of
his office were, to be defeated.
