The following Is the report of tha school
and investigating committee , as presented to
.hi house :
i'o the President of tlio Senate nnd the Speak
er of tlio Homo of Representatives of tbo
State of Nebraska :
Your joint committee appointed to inrnilro
nto the "condition of all transactions relating
, o selling ncd leasing thn tchool land * of the
Btntc , " would lespectfully submit the follow-
"infr raport of their proceedings :
We held our first meeting for the taklngof
testimony Jar-uyy UO , 1885 , and continued
the Btine from day to day na tlio cir-
cumBtancoa and our dutit" ! permit
ted , The committee issued sub
pu'nas for nud examined a largo number of
witmxciM , mid g vc full lib-rty t $ ail perfons
who deilred to come before the committee
and giva oucionra upon nil queetions beiiring
upon the leasing and sale of tbo educational
landa of the Btnto.
The committee , as far aa possible , have had
all partio ) before < t who were supposed to
have auy knowledge cr could thiow
any lifilit upon the subject under
investigation. The committee hiva
given the widest latitude in their examination
of wtn ! < > s i in order that the full and exact
facts might be elicited and niter duly consid
ering the ovldenco your committee have
reached the following conclusions :
1. Tbat thprn is no evidence that the board
of educational lands and funds or auy mem
ber of raid board bin been guilty of any
frnud or wrong in the sale or leasing of the
educational lamU of the btnta.
2. Your committee Hud from the evidence
that the custom of the board of educational
Kinds and funds , since the organization of the
department has boon at oich regular meeting
on the second Tuesday of each month , to pass
the following order nud aproad Ihu same upon
the records of their proceedings :
"On motion , the bids for fduc.itionul lands
nro referred to the commissioner of public
Iniuld aud buildings , to examine and award to
thu highest bidder , where the land is subject
to Icaeo. " *
The idenco further shown that the said
commissioner , hla deputies nnd clerk ? , mmle
Biicli examination nnd awards in putauanco of
such ordor. but fails to BUOW in any p irticu-
lur or &inb ; $ instinct that in making uuch ex *
mniimtiouj nnd awards there bud baon nny
mnnlpuKtions , fraud or collusloua with bid *
prejudicial to the Interest of any bidders
ThH nvidenco of two ex members ot tlio state
board U to the elfect that an extended exam-
icatlon f eu h bid by the stite bo rd would
tnko much of their time , and bdng cxpeiitlvo
ollictvs the samu could not bo tpart-il fiom
dulina incident to tl.elr respective depart-
tnunts. 'J'ho evidenca further ihowiiig the
fact tbnt the examination of bids nna iiward
ing thorn utid iho Iieuing nf contracts porno
mouths required the attention of the uorcinis
fioner and his ontlro clerical force from in
10) ) /ouihvui ( I t ) days
3 , The oommltteo further find from t o cv-
Idenco that tha nutter of opunlng bids aul
awarding them nnd isiulng contracts waa
carefully guarded to pra\ent nny fraud , or
collusion on the part of any ono connected
with the department and out'iilora or bid1
dors ,
4. That the existing lawj are iueQicIent Is
patent , In that they allow one person to ob
tain an unlimited quantity of land at a very
low price and on loog leases at a time when
the lands were constantly and steadily in <
creailng in value , consequently tha commis
sioner of public lands and buildings and the
board of educational lands and funds
have been placed at a great disadvantage
in conducting the dliposal of laud * to
tbo best interests of the state , but that there
baa been any wilful neglect or wrong committed -
mitted by tbo bjard or any member of tha
board , there is not the least evidence to show ,
on the contrary , it teems to have been th lr
aim to BO diepoa of the lands aa to bring the
larger income to the state under their construc
tion of the law.

Tha minority of yourcornmittos respectfully
lubmits the following report : From the tes
timony before your committee we have reach
ed the following conclusions concerning the
leatinir and sale of the public vchool landt.
The board of public lands and buildings Is by
the constitution charged uitb the manage
ment of our educational lands. The duties
and powers of thii board , and tbe conditions
under which school lands are to bo dltposed
of by sale or lease are fully defined by the .
statutes. It was Admitted by all
Uio members of the board wh- >
testified before this committee that
Its proceedings as. such were merely formal ,
although thu governor , tecretary of state ,
treasurer and attorney geueral nro e&ck as
much charged with the duties and retpami-
b.litiei imposed by law upon tha board as the
c jinmlenioniT of imbllo lands and building * .
It appears that the whole conduct of tcllintr
and leailug the school lands wai left with Mr.
Kendall , tbo Itta land commlitioner. It U
also tlnwo that Mr , Kendall hw often dele
gated to hla subordinates tin functions which
are Imposed by law upon the board or upon
tno land commltiloncr.
TnatfiroM nejliRfuco on llio jmt of 111 *
boatd opened the way for flagrant IrroRiiUil-
ties fuilloUtiom of law , wh'ch ' , whether
justly or unjustly , ha\o subjected ths board ,
nnd tr ere viw \ ally Mr. Kc.idall , to Rrft\
suspicion of dlshuuet cilliuion with land
p cu atorj.
The ooenln ? of bids for thn leading ol chool
livads by Mf. KcudnTs clerks before they
wo ( uuniltkd to the b ud was in it elf
ciletilAlci ! tj create the prevailing Imnrcstlon
' nlforded "m-

l.Uors . failed to dl'closs how profitable these
ttaii'vcllona hi\e Ut-n , aud nu nt idenco wa
jiroduc d to show that como of these dodoim

BcUool Und nt nominal Rmrtf , Indicates n
hck of fidelity and prudent business manage
ment on the put uf the board of public lanud
and bulldlrura whuh wo cannot oxcmo ncd
which rnnnot bo too severely condemned.
U'e furtlior find that somu of tfio Bgncul-
tural land in Cedar county nnd ROIIIB of tbo
common school lands in Grwjloy comity lu\o
t oen leased without fust offering for sale ns
thn BtUuto coutcnijilcteF.
\Vn further fiml tltnt a largo amount of land
li i cil by Bpeculatora are now held without
linyiug their rental ? , and tint the same ha\a
icon delinquent In n great Jinrt for n year or
mote without any i-Hott having been niado by
, he board to cancel the snice.
Wo also find from tbo exidenco that Mr.
Kendall askai that lands in Ouster county
which h d been appraised for le.iaius purpose
oliuuld be reapiiraisod , as the first npprnise-
mentTwas too high , llis request wai grnntui
and IhoupprnuoJalua WAS greatly it'duced ,
which xnid net of Kundall na land commission
er wna without statutory warrant nnd wholly
inexcusable and cannot bo too soerely cen
sured.

lic lauds nnd funds discharged its duties as
; ho Inw ditoct * , the school Innds could ! not
liavA bom loused In Ilia wholesale manner by
speculators aa has been done.
Wo nlio bolie\a Hsid. board to be guilty of
; ross nnd inexcusable negligence m thU mat
ter of Belling und leasing tlio school laudc ,
and thht all members of said board cannot bo
too ae\crely censured , and wo also belic\o
that the governor is especially censurable for

The undersigned wish to submit the follow
ing ; to your honorable body , In connection
with the two other reports of thta committee :
We protest against tbo admission of such
expressions ns are found in line 12 , pogo 1 of
the minority rnport. It was admitted by all
the members of tlio board that the proceed
ings were merely formal on the ground that
1 , Only two of said members testified be
fore the committee , and ,
2. They did not niako any such admissions
as stated herein ; also In lines 27 , 28 , 20 , 30 ,
31. 'V2 and 33.
The testimony of the member * of the board
shows that there were no tuch collusions
nnd that they were practically im
possible. Also , the cbarge made In
lines 23 , 21. 25 , 2U and 27 ia justified by the
decisioua of tbo attorney general on the
ground that the paid hind.s were vulusd BO
much below the minimum pricn as to niako
the offer of a len moro formality nnd expense
without benefit.
Also that the first section on piga 3 relat
ing to thu lands in Ouster county. That the
laud commissioner waa justitie 1 in asking for
a renppraisemcnt as the said appraisement
was made un.or a rnU-
uiiderstandingilSJJ by _ the appraisers
aud wni manifestly too high. Also eectiou 2
of same p.ige , we believe the board had no
authority under the law to restrict the amount
of land leased to each individual , ulao in the
third section of tha same pigo there U uo
ground for the censure of tbe governor aa ex
pressed hero , as the testimony will show ,

ber of other prominent persons including
many officsra of tlw army nnd navy , n-d the
diplomatic corps. There were n great many
ladies on the stand , and their rich costumed
andcd to the brilliancy of the
scene. It is estimated there were
on the stand about a thousand
persons. It was 2:10 : when the president , ea-
corted by Col. Benett of the iuaugurnl com
mittee , took his place nt the front ol the
stand and the head of the procession etaited
from the corner of Fifteenth street to piss in
review. '
The president's nppoaranco was the signal
for a geueral shout from the concourse of pet-
pie , n ho had gathered in front of the stand
ad filled the streets f or soer.il hundred yards
both ways. The president quietly bowed his
ackowlodgernents. A good deal of confusion
was caused in the \icuity ! of the stand by the
efforts of the police to clear the stieats for the
procession. The work waa finally tac-
complishtd , but with great difficulty , mounted
police riding into thn dense throng und driv
ing people back \uth their batons. Tha re
view from the presidential stand wcs
A GBANH SIGHT ,
and : t wai the generally expressed opinion no
more brilliant pageant has ercr been wit
nessed in thii country. All the organizations
gave the mnrching salute as they passed the
grand stand , nud the president recognized the
compliment by raising his hat. The first di
vision was composed of regular U , S. troops
nud all the local military organizations. As
they passed the stand the president tainted
tha chief marshal and lit * aides , and the ex-
chief companies , which marched in good time.
The second division was cjmpaaed entirely of
brigadiers of the Pennsylvania National
Guards , There were r.bout 7f 00 in this di

of tha Thirteenth and Eighteenth and several
other regiments , The president puid the
same compliment to the Sixty-ninth New
York regiment , Hoclmtubeau Granadier and

A largo number of colored troops included
in the Third division and their soldierly bearing -
ing and good inarching elicited much puiso
from the people. The Now Jersey soldiers

The publia celebration of the dny ended

\VM llko all displnjR of Ilieworka , but in vol
ume nnd variety it la eatd to have excelled
any former pyrotcchtiical uxlnbitiuuupon this
continent The brilliant finale of the Inaug
uration ceremonies was the bill to-night In
the unfinished new pension building. As the
door opens on the interior the eye fa dazzled
by n BiulJmi blaze of light nnd color , nnd the
mind confused by the Immunity of the
suenn ro\enled nt n glnnca , A hall 316 feet
long by ICO wldo is lighted by
sixty gigantic gai burners of COO
cacdle power each , which are
suspended from the roof , whose peak is lost to
sight , ninety feet above the floor , in n perfect
forest of streamers and flags. On the acre of
waxed floor thousands ot couples in brilliant
t ilets are moving about in the mazes of the
dance , while thouaamU more circle around on
the outskirts in ce soloss promenade , and other
thousands look down on them from the num
berless balconies surrounding.
The decorations , rich in color , cover the
whole Interior of the structure , the red , white
and blue tints of the American Hag predomi
nating. Banks of tropical plants gurrouud
the bases of the eight large columns which
euupppit tha roof nni wreaths of evergreens
are twined around the columns from base to
capital. On the broad faces of the columns
are pcn'.tered , with unique effect , great leaves
of palm. At the ont end of the hall rx pinto
glass mirrorj , 10 feet highacd 10 feet widnand
a f ramo composed of 000 plecesof cutglamrljea
from masses of ( lowers against tue background
of deep crimson nnd reflects from its burfnco
the lights nnd colors of tlm ball room. The
music stands are hung with rich gieon nnd
purple silk damasks nud flags are twined
about tlieir supports. In each of the four
corners of the ball room tiers of stands wliich
reach the height of the balcony are placed ,
and on these , ferns nnd othtr foliages are
massed in prolusion , Tha richest part of the
decorations , however , ia on the front of tbo
b\lciiiy. ! _ Along the entire length around the
ballroom is stretched on this balccny a deep
band of maroon velvet two yards wide , ( heav
ily embroidered for half itd depth with gold
thread in elegant ilrnipu. Tee background of
tbis balcony is the tricolored tunting with
which the walU are hung. Outlined ngatnst
this are small pillar/ which enclose the
balcony nnd support one above it ,
of the > u is Fuspeuded an American silk stind-
nrd burmouuted by a circular shield on which
ii emblazoned the arms of cue state or teni'
tory. At the height of the balcony atone end
of the hall n larjre spread caglo formed of gas
jets and nt either end u fine painted atnr
formed in the aamo manner. Over all in thu
bewildering net work of half moon shaped
flags projecting downwnrda from the peak of
the roof and from which spring _ n marvelou *
numberof streamers in all conceivable colors.
The rooms sot apart by the committee for the
use of the president are magnificently decorat
ed nnd the nir is heavy with their perfume ,
of ( lowers , which nbound everywhere , on the
wall * anil ceiling , and art ) grouped in largo
stands distributed about tlm room. A prom
enade concert opened the festivities of the
evening and wna continued from 8 to 11 p.
m. Dancing began upon the close of tbo
concert. It wna 10:30 : when President Cleve
land arrived nt the bill room. Ho was im
mediately escorted to the pre iilcut'ti loom ,
where for half an hour ho held an informal
reception. The president was ncaompauied
by Miss Cleveland and Mrc. Hoyt , IIH ! E ! -
terj , and by Ida brother , the K v.V , A.
Cleveland acd wife nud their two
eons , Mr. Hustings , his nephew ;
Mien Hastings , Miad Nellie Xeamana ,
nnd l.iz/ette Yeamans and Mrs. Bacon , the

same time ox-lV.sulcnt Arthur nriivid und he
too VVMH escorted to the president's room.
With him wereSscretnrysLiucoInnnd Chaud-
ler , Secretary nnd Mrs. JkCulIoch , Attorney
General Brnwster , Postmaster General Hut-
tea nnd Mra. Hntton nnd Secretary Teller
and Mrs. Teller. Arlce Preside nt liendricka
arrived about the oanio time and
jjiced the president. In the room
at this time waa a largo anil
distlnguithed gathering , tncludicij persons ol
the moat diverge bhades of political opinion
Benidex the persons already Lamed thnro were
present : Snnator Bayard , Col. Vilus , ol
Wisconsin , Gen. and iMr/i. Sheridan , Gen.
Itosccrnns , Daniel Manning and wife , Sen
ator Pendleton , liichard 1. Mertlck , Wade
Hampton. Senator Brown , of Gnorgip ,
Justice Fie'd , of the supreme court , nnd
Speaker 0 irhilo nnd Mis. Carlisle. Thera
was no formal reception by President
Cleveland , but large cumber of persona
prexeod about him , nnd pome uf the gentle
men standing in thu immediate vicinity made
pJCBontatuma. .Aftcrjhalf nn hour spent in
this manner , the room became over crowded ,
and the preeidoiit and vice president , the
former escorted by Senator Peudlcton nnd
Hicbaril I Merrick , and the latter by Jtepra-
etmt.itive Katcu and 8. Y. Nileo , left the
room and made the round of the ball room ,
the band p'ajmg ' "Hail to the Chief. "
After the presidential party had left
the reception room the crowd continued to
pour into it through other doors , unaware
that Mr. Cleveland had left. Standing in
the center of the room was Senator Bayard ,
and the crowd preaaed about him and shook
bands with him aa they paaied , apparently
under the impression that he waa Vice Presi
dent HendrickH. When the ( senator at last
discovered that he was being mistaken for
somebody oleo ho abandoned tbo room , The
spectacle in the ball room at this time waa a
magnificent one. The great hall with its wide
weep of floor nnd towering galleries filled to
its utmost , while the bright toilets of the la
dies and glittering array of diplotrata and
army and navy officer * , the flowers , sparkling
jewels , decorations and llehtH were prominent
feature of the icene , which , It la eafa to tay ,
will never be forgotten by any of the partici-
pantr ,
The president , after making a tour of the
ball room , returned to the reception room ,
and for a little while received nil who came
In to pay their respects , but at 11:30 : ha and
hia party left the bmlnlnp , and Ylco Presi
dent Hendricks and hla party also retired.
Dancing continued until a very late hour , and
10,000 appeari to be a low estimate of the
number of persona present in the ball room
and balconies during the evening.
