Great state University.
From the chartering Of three UNIVERSE
ties fifty years ago, from which nothing
came, the University of Nebraska, with
a plant valued at $1,5OOOOO. stands at the
head of universities in the state and among
the foremost universities in the United
States. Besides this great state institu-
ton there are some sixty-five colleges and
academies in Nebraska, without counting
173 smaller private schools. The value of
the plants Of these colleges In this state
is nearly 100000, making a total Of
millions in the educational development of
this state, where there was not a single
dollar for the promotion Of education fifty
years ago.
In this so much briefed summary Of the
material development of Nebraska in the
last fifty years, what more fitting climax
Of the growth in wealth and business in
every direction than that shown by the
educational growth of the state? Only
through the intelligence and the honesty
and manhood that education puts into the
individual can we hope for business sue
cess and financial triumph and for the
high moral principles which underlies all
