A SPLENDID LOCATION.
The Lancaster Property Purchased for
the New College.

The College Of Physicians and Surgeons
will be located on the Lancaster property
instead OF on the Pinel, as was originally
intended When the Pinel was first pur-
chased il was thought that 1t would be
possible 10 get gas, water and sewers at
an early date, but when the Finance
Committee Of the City Council was ap-
preached on the subject they declared
that the condition Of the treasury would
not admit Of any appropriations being
made for that purpose for some time 10
come. This action Of the committee made
IL necessary for the board Of the College
Of Physicians and Surgeons TO look out
for another location, which 1T would be
possible TO get i'm order I'm time 10 open
the work OF the institution IN the fall.
The place selected is suitable i'm every
sense Of the word. and the friends OF the
institution highly commend the chtice.
The property fronts a whole square on
Clay street, extending from Eleventh to
Twelfth running back 10 an alley 80
feet. and has upon IL three large build
ings, which will be improved and re-
modelled. Negotiations for the purchase OF
this property have been pending some
time. and were conducted with Mr.. r.
A. Lancaster. in whose name the property
stands. through MIR. Charles Rose. Messrs.
Lancaster and Rose were present at the
meeting OF the board at 1 o'clock yester-
day. and the sale was concluded. The
price paid was 500 600. 5000 cash and the
balance I'm instruments on time. The board
instructed the building committee 10 make
arrangements TO commence the work OF
remo1eing the old buildings at once.
The dispensary Of the new hospital Will
be opened very soon. probably In week
or ten days. The purchase Of the proper
" was ratified by the board Of directors
OF the college. the board Of directors OF
the hospital. and approved by the faculty
Of the college.
A Faculty Meeting
The faculty Of the College Of Physicians
and Surgeons met last evening In the
office Of the president. Dr. Hunter Nc
CURE. The business Of the meeting was
the making of appropriations TO equip
with teaching apparatus the chairs OF
anatomy, chemistry, pathology and his
tology and physiology and the dental
department. The faculty heartily indorsed
and ratified the purchase OF the Lancas-
ter property, to be used for the new
college.

Union Labor Gazette: The Gazette
is glad the sentiment against the sale
OF the school land is growing, especially
at this time, when land is increasing so
rapidly in value. In the counties where
school land was sold last. year and
again this year. the price has advanced
not less than 20 per cent, and there is
no question but what the advance for
several years more will be equally rapid.
What folly, then, to sell lands in order
to realize paltry six per cent. interest
where the mere holding will bring
three times that interest to say nothing
of whatmight be secured for the use of
the land.
That's queer position for reform
organ to take. Why should the state
desire to make money out of its people?
Who must pay the increased cost of
the school lands and the increased in
terest rate? Is this in line with the
theory of government operating at cost?
Would not the same logic justify gov
ernment railway or telegraph line in
keeping up rates that a bigger percent
age might be turned into the public
treasury? Is it fair Or equitable for a
small proportion of the people to have
to have to pay big prices for land now
that the great body of coming genera
tions may enjoy cheap school privileges?
The school lands of the state should not
be sacrificed; neither should they be
held for speculation.

both cypress and pine and miscel-
laneous lot of other goods were precipi-
tated through the ground floor and into

Pate, colored man, was crushed to
death under the debris, and has not

We're injured. The loss to the building

years ago. Then the people were led

Of four inches an hour.

We are promised very soon a full in

by the press and the people of the
state. whose chief complaint against
the whole outfit is that there has been
a woful lack of frankness and fair deal
ing toward the public which pays the
bills. In this connection the State
Journal makes the following observa-
ton:
The State Journal takes this position
that Gov. Sheldon is not wholly to
blame-scarcely more so than incident
ally. The Board of Regents are not
wholly to blame, neither is President
McLouth WHOLLY to blame, and when
the people of South Dakota are finally
furnished with published copies of the
certain documents which the State
Journal positively knows to be in exis-
tence they will agree with the position
which we take in this article.
