NEW STATE HOUSE
SOON TO COME UP
Legislature Must Determine It
Policy in This Regard at
. Early Date.
The Associated Commercial Clubs
of Western Nebraska at Bridgeport,
February 27 took up good roads, pub
licity, co-operation and legislation.
The' following officers were elected
for the coming year: President, H..M.
liushnell of Alliance,; first vice presi
dent, George .. Gorton of Crawford;
second vice president, Mark Span
ogle of Bridgeport; secretary, A. B.
Wood of Gering, and treasurer, Keith
L. Pierce'of Hemingford.

WHAT THE SITUATION
entertaining the Nebraska State As-
of Council Bluffs was defeated here I
, - Frora BUS Correspondent.)
Lincoln, March 2 (Special). It is
expected that the state house appro
priation will be the next big prob
lem before the lower branch of the
legislature.
The more the matter is discussed,
it becomes apparent that people are
more favorable to creating a fund1 by
special levy, as called for in the Rich
mond bill. This bill calls for a one
mill special levy nntil $he sum of $3,
300,000 has been raised. This would
probably take about seven years
under the present valuation of the
state, which on a one-mill levy would
raise about $500,000 a year.
Very few members of the legisla-
- lure but believe there should be a
new state house. Many problems
have arisen at this season calling for
impropriations. The finance ways and
means committee of the house have
oeen trying to keep the appropria
5ions down. Whether they are justi
fied in reporting out for indefinite
postponement bills simply on the idea
:hat the appropriations should be kept
down instead of on the broader idea
that the appropriation are needed, la
a matter which tht legislature will
hart to settle, 1 ,.-
r Stone Will Crumble,
When it wai first proposed to re
pair the old wing by tearing down the
wait, driving piling for the purpose of
giving a solid foundation on which to
rebuild the walls, it was figured that
the stone now composing the walls
could be taken out and used in re
building the wing. According to ex
perts, the atone will not stand mov
ing, but will crumble as soon as
taken out of the walls. In case- this
if true, stone that would match that
" now in the building and would have
to be shipped from the Bedford quar
ries in the east It it the opinion of
these men that at toon at the south
wall it taken out and the east wall
pulled down as far back at it thown
to be unsafe, the whole wall will
crumble.
A teriout problem is presented in
the minds of tome of .he membert
whether the- state would not be in
a bad predicament if an attempt were
made to repair the old wing and it
was found after tearing it down thai
the whole wing Wat likely to go to
ruirl. There would not be enough
money to make it safe for use and no
appropriation to build hew.
The present deplorable condition
of the state library must also be
taken into consideration.; The tame
business judgment which a man
would apply to hit own affairs in
protecting nfooertV aoeears to be
lacking in the .minds of many of the
. members, jr.'.:;' '?.'.
Many Vrgs Levy, :
Tax payers our in the state who are
really interested in the matter, are
urging upon their members to vote
the levy in many instances. Douglas
county, which pays a large per cent
ot the taxes of the state, has a full
delegation' for the new stats house.
Cherry county. Box Butte county.
' Sheridan county and many other of
die new counties wncre me people
very seldom get a chance to see the
state house', are anxious that the
"present disgrace to the state," as
they call the present edifice, shoule
be removed and a new one erected.
It is said that there are people
working in tne east wing of the build
ing who have been turned down by
accident insurance companies because
the risk is too great to carry either
front accident or death. If this is
so, the members of the legislature are
facing a prob'em of which there is
only one solution protection, to life.
