Norfolk Will Get $100,000 Instead -
stead of $75,000.
HANDSOME PRESENTOF ; $25,000
Congressmen Propose to Do the
Right Thing by This City Thanks
ofthe People are Due to Those Re
sponsible for the Bill.
From Saturday's Dally !
Washington , April 25 W M. Rob
ertson , Norfolk , Neb. : Iu the publio
building appropriation bill which will
bo reported tomorrow , Norfolk gets one
hundred thousand dollars.
J. 8. Robinson.
The foregoing tells Its own story.
Norfolk is to have a publio building
r costing $100,000 instead of $75,000 ,
which is the most that had been hoped
for by oven the most sanguine. The
bill introduced by Congressman Robin-
eon only provided for $75,000 , and the
amount of the appropriation was raised
in the committee on public buildings
nnd grounds , of which Congressman
Mercer of Omaha is chairman. Norfolk
can not but fcol under obligations to
Congressman Mercer for the interest ho
has taken iu this matter , which It is
understood comes largely through per
sonal friendship for some of the citi/.ens
of this place. Norfolk is not iu his dis
trict but he sennas to have looked after
the welfare of this place about us care
fully as though it formed a portion of
his constituency , aud the only regret
on the part of Norfolk people > will be
that they are not so situated that they
can not repay his solicitude for this place
with their votes the next time ho runs
for congress. Congressman Robinton
is deserving of all the credit that an ad
verse political situation in Washington
will permit. There is no question but
that ho introduced the bill iu good faith
and followed it consistently to the end ,
for which ho should have unstinted
credit , but the fact is that if Norfolk
haft not had n republican friend at the
head of the committee , the appropri
ation could not possibly have been secured
cured at this session.
The telegram announcing the increase
in the size of the appropriation wns sent
last night but it was not received by
Mr. P.obertson until this morning. Ac
cording to the statement given , which
is verified by press dispatches from
Washington , the appropriation bill will
be reported in the house today , and a
favorable report of the committee Is con
sidered an equivalent to its adoption by
the house. Having received the neces
Bary number'of votes in the house it
will go to the senate , where there is
every probability that it will pass.
Hence , while it is yet n little early to
lay the corner stone of Norfolk's public
building , it is considered a fairly safe
proposition that the building will be
erected as soon as the various prelimi
naries have been disposed of.
