THE SCHOOL OF MINES


 Why not start a movement in Bsbee for the To- cation of the Arizona School Of Mines in the Warren District? If the School of Mines be separated from the University of Arizona, why not locate it in Bis. bee rather than in Globe? Has Babee and the Warren District more mines better mines, bigger and richer mines than Globe? Is Che community popua ton larger and thc opportunity of drawing students from the mines and miners families better Why should not Baboe and the Warren District pick the pums from the limbs of the stato educational institution if t s tc be stripped?
 Why NOT? There many reasons.
 But there is only one reason for starting such an agitation
 If he Warren District should demand of Che leg. l.aturo that the school oL mines o the University o Arizona be removed from the institution in Tucson, and located in Chs district H would partially countcract the claims of Globe and GHa county dwould ef roctualy kin the bin which Globe business men have prepared and with which they would prue from the University one of its cHier branches of education.
 The Globe idea is ridiculous with all due deferenc to the business men nde Gta county seat It is a rromoters idea with the object of beneftlug part of the state at the expense fthe University which the whole fthe state has beer industrously working for many years to place on a equal footing with educatona. institutions throughout thc country. It has merits and possesses demerits oj dividing from the University of Arizona that fstudy which Arizona above all states should teach proncenuy
 Globe itself can offer advantages to the minins student which Tucson denies. Near Tucson are mines which the student may study. On University land af Tucson. the students are to have their own mine in which they may gain actual knowledge of underground work In Addition the School of Mines of the Univer sity of Arizona demands that each of its graduates have certain amount of underground experience in some large mine of the sato before diploma is granted and to that end places n the mines during Che summer months for its students
 Mining may be studied mtcnsvey in Tucson as in Globe It may also be studied extensively. In addition tb cadvautags fhavng the School of Mines connected with the other branches of he University i offered in the present location. Literature, science mathematics, orts engineering, much part oi .he educauo moi the mining student as is mining, and in many schools such as the University of Arizona, part nhe literary course is required of the embryo mining engineer The mining engineer in the University of Arizona uses in his work the science laboratorie. which the chemistry student uses. New laboratorie. would have to be established in Globe h the schoo were removed In the same way repetition Of many of the factor svhicb are combined in the one nstitu ton would be necessary the University divided to satisfy the demands Of Globe
 with tho mining achooI at present connected witt te University Arizona it receives the advantages o thousands of dollars going into the coners fue in ruutiou as whole The state forestry reserves, sat' school lands the federal government, each donates u the fund yearly which is necessary the nstitu tion Every branch O; he University benefits in th' expenditure fthese funds But it is doubtful if school of mines at Globe would receive any of thes' funds and 1t is certain that were it to receive equan with Che other branches Of rhe University share, tha proportion would not have beneficial results attained through the same moneys uow
 In addition there is h the Globe plan the expens of maintaining two institutions The University of Ar zona needs money There would be demanded ney set of buildings The University of Arizona has bee after Che state legislature for years for buildings whlc n has soroy needed More teachers would be required Dormuorics new equipment for new shops and lsbora tories ar would ur the cash which the present iu sututon must sooner later have. Doubled eEpens Sopld be gained; half present efficiency would be al di85d.
 Globe would benefit in one manner. In that sam uaHoor- Bisbee, Phoenix, Douglas Prescott or Yum
