LINCOLN, March 18.-(Spcctal.)-Judge
Paul Jcssen of Nebraska City, has filed
In the district court of Lancaster county

to declare nult and void the action of the
last legislature In voting an appropriation
of J20.000 for a memorial armory on the
grounds of Old Fort Kearney In Nebraska
City, for tho use ot tho company df Na

for the last twenty-five yeors.
Soon nfter the legislature adjourned, the
university legislative league, a sort of

Avlsworlh. Tucker and Sorenson, began
a campaign to have the work of tho leg
islature In voting the appropriation sub
mitted to a vote of i the pcoplo for tho
purpose of killing the appropriation. Peti

coln, sent out to other portions ot the
state and a general campaign made to
secure -sufficient names on the petitions
to Insure the proposition a place on tho

the needs of tho guard. Ho also sets out
that many of tho names of the petitions
have not sufficient address, that tho pe
titions are not properly certified to and
that some of tho petitions appear to
havu the names written by the same
person.
Tho grounds on which tho proposed
new armory will be erected are owned by
Colonel William Hayward, formerly cap
tain of tho company and later colonel ot
the Second regiment, and a prominent

Considerable criticism of university pro
