CONCERNING GALLOWAY COLLEGE
A Few Thoughts sugTcsted BY Rev. J.
L. Futrcll, Agent.

Rev. Futrell has been assisting In
the meetings at present being held In
this city. and yesterday was inter-
viewed by a CHEFrAis representative
on the subject Of Galloway college.
The question Of providing funds for
completing the college was considered, +,
chiefly, from q business standpoint
and Mr.. Futrell said, In effect:
II vInita furnish 5000 we feel sure
Of 1000 more elsewhere; this puts a
school which will bring not less than
100 pupils. These pupils will spend
$50 each per month 1890 per annum J
OF $4,000 per annum which will be q
direct income 10 the community.
Then; quite q um Der Of boys can be
educated at home who would go away, q,
and thus $500 each is saved to the
community.
Families move in. in large mum bers
and thus give additional business.
Property 10 enhanced in value.
Then numbers OF boys are educated
who would otherwise remain ignorant,
and thus the intelligence Of the COM
munity 10 raised.
These advantages are not only for
the town but for the whole community y
yea for the whole Indian Territory.
First. they give q market to those
near here for all their produce, FOR
this increase must be fed.
Again, it is we'll to note that the
class Of people Who move in will be OF
I the lse. and thus the moral tone is
raised, as we'll as the financial help
given.
These are no fancy sketches. but
are the history OF every place waerc
colleges have been built. Instance,
Altus. Ark; college built out in the
wilderness; q town OF several thou
sand inhabitants has been built around
IL and IL now has 40 boarding pupils
Fayetteville, Ark, went up from less
than 1000 to about 5000. starkvills,
Miss., had the disadvantage OF two
railroads missing her ten or twelve
miles on each side and would have
died, but she built college which has
grown into ono Of nearly 400 pupils.
Result, the town more than doubled in
size and two female colleges have been
built and she is now offering nearly
$4,000 for another male college
About the Same is true OF Emory col.
leEe. Ca, whore our Bro. Rivers Was
educated; the place would have beer
dead long since but fol the school. Ia
fact, 10 where you will and the same
fact Is patent colleges are the best
feeders for towns; they beat railroads
Another point might be made:
When it was decided to build a Metho
dist collage in Mississippi, Col. Mill
saps, at Jackson, said to the church
"I will give $4,000 when you raise Al
equal sum-" They have nearly all thal
raised so will seon be able 10 iool
around for a location. Would that VI
had n,an who would say, "I will put
down $4,000 IL the church will dc
likGWise."
Mr. Futrell stated that he was IA
Starkville not long since and two Bsp-
lists told him they we're helping tC
build q church; one had subscribed
Sl00, the other $3.50 but they would
give $3.50 and $500 for the Methods
college 10 be located there.

KaumakapiIi Church.

A largely attended meeting OF Kauma-
kapili Church congregation was held in
that ediiee yesterday evening. Its pur-
pose was the consideration of a majority
decision of the trustees to mortgage
the property to the lunalilo Estate for a
loan of $4,000 to be applied to pay
ment OF the debt. Nine of the
trustees signed the mortgage, but the re-
naming four withheld their names.
After an earnest discussion the congre-
CATION decided to support the majority
in having the mortgage executed. In
consequence of this decision the four
hesitating trustees will sign the mortgage
to-day. The debt amounts to 81, 500.
MIR. 2. c.. Jones has offered to endorse a
note for 81 900 or the balance after the
loan is effected. All the trustees are
Hawaiians.
