COLORADO STATE AFFAIRS AND
DOINGS AT THE CAPITAL CITY
mn School of Theology.

The paying OFF of the debt OF the
University of Denver will make some
what radical change in the manage
ment of the school. This has been
brought about the separating of the
Iliff School of Theology from the uni
versity and placing 1t under an indie
pendent board of trustees. The change
was a condition which Bishop and Mrs.
Warren attached to their gift of $4,000
toward the university debt. and the
transfer was formally completed FRI
day. Bishop and Mrs. Warren are leay-
ing tomorrow on their trip to India,
and it is possible that the board will
be named at once in order to have the
affairs of the school carried on. 1t is
not the intention to open 1t this year,
or perhaps for some time to come, but
preparations will be made toward that
end and the school opened as soon as 1t
is deemed best to do so.
in making this change" said Bish-
op Warren last night, I'VE are only
seeking to follow the precedent estab-
lished by the great theological schools
of other denominations. This is the
original design now fully carried out.
The board of trustees will be selected
from prominent Methodists, and every
professor must be approved as to his
orthodoxy and be qualified by the board
of bishops"
The plan is one which has long been
discussed by the university board" said
Dr. Frost Craft. There has been some
nf in, Mt I'm no 70 ha
wisdom of the plan, but never any fric-
ton. Some members of the board,
among them Chancellor Buchtel,
thought the university was too small a
school TO attempt to make the distinc-
ton, but they are now quite reconciled
to the idcs.
"ynGer the new rule the Tiff School
OF Theology vii. be a separate institu-
tiun, and yet as much part of the uni
versity as the law school or any other
department. The same thing obtains
at Princeton. the Northwestern univer-
sity, and in fact in nearly all the larg-
err institutions of learning"
The lliff School Of Theology was
founded by Mrs. Warren in memory of
her frs: husband Mr. lliff, and he son.
William S. Iliff. erected the fine, red
stone building at cost of 10000. Mrs.
Warren donating an endowment of
100000. 1t is stated that with the
transfer of Friday, Bishop and Mrs.
Warren are given the privilege of nam
ing the board. which will perpetuate
itself.
The change of management in no
way impairs the credit of the universi-
ty. nor does 1t affect the extinction Of
the debt which was accomplished last
week.

Shortage Of Fund. Certain.

The belief that the state Will not
be able to pay many Of the appropria-
tons made by the last Legislature
grows with the return of the abstracts
of the assessors of the different coun.
says the Denver Republican Of August
2sth. forty-one counties had been heard
from. The decrease in the assessed
valuation of the states based on the
reports that have already been re-
ceived by the state auditor will be
about $56,000,000. This is an estimate
and Governor Peabody says nothing
can be said definitely concerning the
matter until all of the counties have
reported. The indications at the pres.
ent time show that the state will DO
short at least 100000 for the two
years of the present administration.
1t has been estimated by Auditor
Holmberg that even If the State Board
of Equalization were to raise the as.
sessed valuation of the railroads of
the state over ten per cent. there
would not then be enough to pay all
the appropriations made by the last
Legislature.
The state can look only to the in
heritance tax of the Stratton estate.
If that were wholly collected all OF the
appropriations could be paid. But
there is every prospect that the STRAIT
ton case will be tied up In the courts
for many years.
All assessors must file their alb
stracts with the state auditor before
the middle OF next month.
What the state will do to make up
the deficit is not known as Governor
Peabody yesterday refused to state
anything concerning the situation un-
til 1t was more definite. 1t is not
likely that the banks of the state nor
private individuals will :oan the state
