slope, to be erected in Gunnison,
would be built Immediately has been
made by DR.. z. X. Snyder, president
vi the State Normal school at Greeley,
in a lecture delivered here before a

fever heat following the statement by
DR.. Snyder that the appropriation of
$4,000 made by the last state Iegis-
lature is now available and that the
committee will at once advertise for
bids for construction.
The people of Gunnison have been
trying for nearly fifteen years to have
the state establish a normal school
on the western slope. The need has
been felt for a long time and each
year the fight was renewed to be an
swered only with promises ON the
part of the legislature. The end of
the long drawn battle for recogni-
tiop came last year when an approp-
ration was made.
The new school will be a hand

latest ideas in construction and
adaptability for normal work. 1t is
expected that ground will be broken
by the first of May and that work
