ed the dismissal OF one OF the pres
ident's two stenographers and re-
ported against any appropriation for
the presidents house. The full
itemized account of appropriations
required was given.
A very liberal recommendation
for appropriation were made. The
committee deems it necessary for the
school to receive two hundred and
fifty thousand dollars during the
next two years. This is fifty five
thousand dollars more than it got
at the last session of the legislature
when DR.. Raymond was in Charles
ton to look after the matter in per-
son. This may be taken as an evil
denee of what would have been Civ
en- had he stayed away from here at
that time
1t has always been claimed by
those on the goound that he hinder
ed the real friends of the school in
their efforts to get plenty Of money
for the institution and this goes a
great way to sustain that claim.
The matter of expenditures had
been carefully investigated by the
committee anc they reported ad-
versely to the practice of the board
in allowing the President of the I'm
iversity to disburse them and re-
commended that the next board fol
lows the law and attend to this
themselves. 1t was not intimated
that there had been anything crook
ed in any of the transactions but
the members of the committee think
that the practice is a wrong one and
may lead to something that would
be of great damage to the state and
to- the institution.
Another recommendation is that
the preparatory branch of the Uni
versity at Morgantown be abolish
ed in time 1t is thought that this
is right in principal but that the
time is not yet ripe for it. The de
partment will be done away with as
soon as the Normal schools OF the
state can be brought up to take it's
place. Until that time any such a
move would be injudicious.
