have not turned over TO the state board
of land commissioners the proceeds
derived from the sale of lands, nor
the lands remaining in the university
grant amounting in all to about $1,000
acres.
The board would like to have the
transfer made as soon as possible, and
the several members individually and
collectively are beginning to look
anxious.
There is said to be a reason why
the transfer of the cash, which aggre-
gates some $4,000, is not made. 1t ap-
pears that appropriations made by the
legislature have peen paid in war
rants, instead of coin of the realm, and
that hoping that matters would change
and the territorial paper go to par,
the university authorities have used
the cash derived from the sale OF lands
and transferred the warrants to the
cash account. Warrants are soms-
what below par and 1t will require a
cash payment on the part OF someone
to make up the difference. However,
there is little probability that any dis
turbance will result over the matter
as every one agrees that the university
folks have done what was right in
this connection, and that within a very
short time the entire business will be
adjusted to the satisfaction of all con-
csTnedl
