A LOGICAL PLEA.
For the Removal Of the University
From Reno to Carson.

From Reno to Carson.
Editor Appeal
The frequent reference of the papers
of Reno to the subject of moving the !
Capitol of Nevada to Washoe, causes
q smile ON this part of the world
When bills of that import have ap
peared in the Legislature they have
been looked upon as intended simply
for trading purposes, to allow Washo-e
to put through some pet measure, and
have usually answered the purpose
for which they were constructed. But
the idea of removals brings UP very
serious side of this subject.
i. It is a great pity that figures ana
statistics were not properly brought
before the Legislature that they might
have taken action, as they proved
themselves a most generous and open
handed class of men. Had they been
shown the true condition regarding
the University, they would doubtless
have voted to remove that institution
to Carson as soon as possible, rather
then to have given money for further
building in Reno. The state of affairs
referred to is learned from the publish
ed account of it's Tri-Decennial cele-
bration. held last Spring.
The statistical table shows that there
has been a steady decrease in attend
ance since 1897, until the decrease
in 1904 reached nearly one hundred.
Each year larger sums have beer ap-
propriated by the State for this insti-
tuition and each year the number Of
pupils have grown smaller. Such q
condition needs some explanation and
it remains for one Of the Speakers of
school"
Citizens OF Nevada read the follow

the desirability Of removing the I'm
iversity of Nevada to Carson, one Of

There is no doubt. however, that
the marked decrease of the present

Whether deservedly or not, the City o.
Reno has recently gained an unenvia
BILE reputation, not only for it's larg'
number of saloons, gambling houses
land places of questionable resort, bu
for widespread influence for evil
resulting therefrom. This has caused
many parents to either keep theil
children at home or send them e
schools of other States, rather thar
expose them to the influences sup
posed to exist in their own Universit,
town. While the places referred t
are recognized by the Nevada Law
a law as rigidly enforced in Reno a
in other towns Of the State, the fac
remains that the reputed condition c
affairs has seriously crippled the wor
Of the University. So grave is tn

University visitors that they hav,
taken decided action concerning it. y
