Lincoln Legislature Sees Real Estate Boom Amid Busy Session
Lincoln Nebraska February 21 The last week in the legislature was busy but not lengthy with few constituents visiting and many speeches brief. Real estate fever dominates the Capitol as options surge and investors trade corner lots for quick profits. The senate advances a railroad reform bill while other measures pass or are under consideration including a bureau of labor and industry and a home for soldiers and sailors. Major budget figures and notarial commissions are noted as the state faces growing expenditures and administrative plans.
