Oklahoma City reports that maintaining the McAlester state penitentiary costs the state about $160,000 yearly, more than running the University of Oklahoma at Norman. The Norman asylum for the insane ties with the university at $150,000 each. The budget proposal sets a two mill levy, with one-fourth mill for common schools, estimated to raise $2,924,071 plus $722.04 income, totaling $3,045,415. The board of equalization also recommends funding outstanding pre July 1, 1901 expenditures by state bonds.
