could be utilized for our needs for
shops. dormitories, etc, far better
than it would serve any other pur-
pose; and our Western Slope deserves
this public assistance which it caz
secure in no other way.
If this property could be given to
our school with conditions imposed as
to the kind and character of school we
must maintain in order to hold it, We
believe 1t would be put to its largest
public use. If this would not be
possible, let it be given to the State
of Colorado for educational purposes
with no conditions attached as to the
States responsibility to maintain it
tfor that would mean. and could
mean, nothing but meagerly sup
ported Normal SCHOOL, and we be-
heve our legislature would decide
that it could be put to its largest use
by turning it over to us. We will be
glad to give any further information
that may be desired. or make any
change in our organization that can
be devised TO guarantee to the public
the largest service from any property
given into our control.

WANT PROPERTY
FOR THE SCHOOL

, charter from the State about year
ity. The charter authorizes the trus-
tees, who can receive no salary, to
hold in trust and administer for
school purposes all property. The
school must always be non-sectarian,
and the trustees are probably as rep
resentative of the various interests of
this section as could be selected.
The plans of the school are large
and in some ways unique Emphasis
will be laid upon Industrial training,
especially upon horticultural, agri-
cultural and engineering lines of
work. We believe that when once
equipped, these departments can be
made nearly, if not entirely, self sus-
tanning. 1t seems to us rather un-
reasonable to expect that pupils
trained under teachers who have the
running of well equipped agricul-
tural or horticultural plant can go
out into the world and buy their own
plant and run it at a profit, if their
instructors cannot make both ends
meet when their plant is already fur
nished. All tuitions will be based
upon the actual cost of instruction
and in all Industrial training pupils
will be paid for actual work. which
will be some considerable proportion
of the requirements for graduation.
This will enable a large number of
students to earn their way to an
education. AS far as possible, each
pupil in commercial and engineering
work will take, as a part of his
course, actual work outside of the
school in some one of the various
industrial projects whose need it will
be the aim of the school to supply.
a careful inquiry among business
men engaged in large undertakings
has convinced us that when we can
sift pupils so that we can recommend
for adaptability. honesty. stability
and some degree of training, more
places will be open to our pupils than
we can possibly supply. BY pursuing
this policy our school can certify not
only that our graduates KNOW
things, but that they can DO things,
and this is what every employer
wants to know and what every young
man and woman ought to know about
themselves. 1t will be the constant
aim of the school to give as large a
degree as possible of literary and
cultural training along the Industrial,
to correllate the mental and the ply
sical training. 1t is. perhaps, an un-
usual thing for school not under
State control to expect favors from
the State or the government. We
would gladly turn our project and
equipment over TO the State If our
laws would permit them to handle 1t.
AS they will not, we believe the stu
dents of this large section of country,
with its rapidly increasing popula-
tion, ought not to be compelled to
travel four hundred miles over the
greatest mountain range on the con-
n. s.rvf tRf ~
stitution to be educated there, and
the only way to prevent this is to
build our own school.
This property, comparatively value
less to the government when the
Indian School is abandoned, worth
but little for Normal School purposes.

Tonight or tomorrow a statement,
signed by all of the members of the
board of directors of the university,
which board is made up of prominent
business men and citizens, will be
bailed to each of the Congressman
and United States senators from Colo
rado. This statement will be accom-
panied by a signed endorsement of
the movement bearing the signatures
of nearly all of the members of the
board of directors of the Chamber
of Commerce. The movement seems
to be meeting with general favor
when the circumstances are explain
ed. The statement to be sent to the
Congressman and Senators is very
clear and comprehensive one and for
the benefit of the public and so that
all may know the reasons advanced
for the proposed turning over of this
property to the university, The SEN
tinel reproduces this statement in
full as follows:
Dear Sir:-In view of the probable
abandonment of the Indian School
near this city, the board of trustees
of THE Western University of In
dustries, Science and Arts" desires to
present certain matters for your con-
sideration relative to the disposal of
the property.
1t has been suggested that this
property be turned over to the State
of Colorado on condition that State
school of some character be main
tanned.
Our State Constitution fixes the To-
cation of all our State schools except
the Normal School. and our courts
have held that their work cannot be
duplicated in other parts of the State
by the establishment of either branch
schools or independent schools of a
similar character. A Normal School
would fill a very small educational
need on the Western Slope, especially
in view of our small representation
in the legislature. if it were estab-
lished we could hope to get only n
meagre support in competition with
the other State schools in sections
with much stronger legislative dele
cations. Onlyta few of the buildings
on the Indian school property could
be utilized for Normal School pur-
poses and those would require consid-
cradle remodeling.
Realizing that the conditions al
ready mentioned would be effectual
barriers to the securing, for the West
ern Slope of a State school that would
at all supply our educational needs,
however desirable such an institution
might be and however great the need,
IA few individuals who were very
much interested in education secured

the G. v. railroad near the plant OF
the American Horticultural Digtribu-
ting Co.; two near the G. v railroad
freight station. and the other one

passenger station. the lot now being
used fer bill boards. No site was
selected but thai matter 1ill be sakan
up In the near future.

chase of Corliss engine AMI the
