They advised us to proceed with the sale of lots, and prepared a written request, asking us not to deposit the proceeds of the lot sales with the State Treasurer, but to use the money in carrying out the provisions of the law, paying for the erection of a capital, and report to the coming Legislature our actions in full. The sale of lots came off, and was reasonably successful ; so much so that the Commissioners felt authorized to proceed to advertise for plans and specifications, and to let th...e contract for the building. The funds were kept in hiding, Mhere no injunction or attachment could find them. I was often asked by certain parties of Omaha Avhy the money for the sale of Lincoln lots was not placed with the State Treasurer, as the law directed. When pressed, one of the citizens said they wanted to enjoin the funds in the hands of the Treasurer from being paid out, and thus keep us from building the capitol at Lincoln. I informed the party that the funds would be turned over to the State Treasurer the next day to pay his bill for advertising.
