THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 80 1889,
A FREE BAPTIST COLLEGE.

Mention has been made in the
Eagle heretofore Of the plan set
on foot by the Texas Free Baptist
Association for the establishment
of college in Texas. Elsewhere
in this issue appears an outline Of
the proposed plan by the board of
directors. The plan contemplates
the organization Of stock com
pany and the erection Of a suitable
two story building and recon.
mends that the school begin with
the beginning Of the year 1900.
The Eagle is advised by one
in authority in the matter that the
inference which might be drawn
from the article referred to, that it
is settled matter that Bryan will
get the school, is erroneous. Bryan
will get il if she offers superior or
equal inducements for its location.
and it is hoped that she will do
so.
Bryan already enjoys the dis
tinction Of being II school town,
which fact constitutes one of her
chief claims to superiority. The
addition Of another College, which
will bring with it the patronage
and influence Of the Free Baptist
denomination, will add very
materially to the merits and repu,
tation Of the city as an educational
center, and we feel sure that Ia,
hearty and general approval the
establishment of the school will
meet with here will leave no doubt
