THE QUESTION OF THE TExA$UNivER-

In another column of this issue will be
found an interview last evening had with
PROFESSOR ALEXANDER HoGG, superintend-
ent OF public schools at Fort Worth, on
vital questions pertaining to the public
school system and the University of Texas.
The main facts in the establishment of the
university are substantially as follows:
The founders of the Republic, solicitous
of having public free school
system, made certain grants and provisions
for free schools and university. In 1899
there was an appropriation made of some
222, 400 acres of land, and in 1876 the consti-
tuition authorized the location of an addi-
tional 100000 acres. Last September the
account stood for the permanent furd as
follows: State bonds, $685., 772 SO land sale
notes, Sl52, 900. This includes the 1884,.
472 % borrowed by the general
revenue fund OF the university
fund. OF available funds the account
stood, interest on notes, $GG,053 &c, and
lands, acres, ,032, S25. Now, the building
Is to cost $4,000, and it is estimated that
the furnishing of it will cost some 500 COO
more, while for apparatus, library, speci-
mems, etc, some $4,000 is figured, or a to-
tai OF $4,000 The current annual ex-
pensc is put down at $4,000, and the an
nual available revenues amount to but
about $4,000, This leaves a deficit Of
about 500 goo per year, which will have to
be made up by taxation, rs is sometimes
contenled. But it will be remembered
that on the loan Of $l3i, i79 % made in 1860
there is due an accrued interest that to-day
exceeds 100000, This, ii paid and turned
over for annual revenue, would give for five
years $4,000 each year, and which
added to the $4,000 already annually
available, produces the required $4,000.
1t will be further remembered that the
University Fund owns some 900 900 acres
OF land. Before the five years shall have
expired this will surely have been leased at
say two cents per acre per annum, which
would yield the deficit of the $4,000. Thus
the university can be established at once
without any extra taxation at all if the
legislature will in its next session
do the fair and honorable thing
of restoring the amount of $l34, 472 % bor-
rowed, or pay the accrued interest Justly
due. So, there can be no question as to
any conflict between the establishment and
endowment ofthe Texas university and the
maintenance Of thepublic free schools. The
people demand this great and essential link
in the grand educational system of the
state. Last April the regents
met in Austin and continued
their sitting for ten days, but adjourned
without consumWatins anything, deter
mining to await the action of our repre-
sentatives this coming winter. 1t is to be
hoped that next spring full arrangements
will be made for the organization OF the
Texas university.
