movo tho Btnto university to tho Btate
farm. Kirk's resolution has been
awaiting a favorable opportunity for
several days. It was brought up yes
terday by its author, and at once Ger
dos of Richardson moved .an amend
ment. His nmendment was primarily
to protest to the right of the speaker
to appoint special committees, nnd
second to separate the investigating
committeo from tho standing commtl-
-of-ilnnjice.amL.of universities
which must later act on the question
of appropriations. After considerable
debate the amendment carried.
Declared Important.
Oerdes declared the Kirk resolu
tion to be of more importance and re
quiring more careful study than any
thing that had come before any legis
lature of which he had been n mem
ber. Ho pointed out that It con
corned the appropriation of at least a
million dollars. He wanter an impar
tial committeo to act Independently
of the standing committees. Evans of
Adams defended tho original motion.
Prince of Hall seconded tho efforts of
Gerdes, and declared safety in legisla
tion depended mostly on securing in
dependent criticism of plnns from dif
ferent sources. Grossman of Douglas
outshone Mr. Prlnco in oratory in sec
onding tho attitude of the former on
the question. Ho declared that he
fayored liberal appropriations for the
university. It in his mind is the best'
advertisement tho state has. Ho want
ed light from tho best source obatin
able as to Uio best course for tho In
stitution's advantage.
Couldn't Understand.
Qunckenbush of Nomaha could not
understand why the special committee
should bo called for. Ho favored leav
ing it to tho stnnding cbmmlttee on
finance. Fries of Howard agreed with
him and moved to lay tho matter on
the table. Tho motion was killed by
a vote of 50 to 37 and after tho pre
vious question had been moved, the
vote was taken on tho amendment of
fered by Gerdes, which carried by a
substantial majority.
Speaker Kuhl appointed tho follow
ing committee: Messrs. Kirk of Knox,
Gallagher of Thurston, Bassott of

vle of Lancaster, Gerdes of Richard
