We are disposed to believe that but
very few people have any idea, or at
least a very little idea of the magni-
tude of the State University, located
at Columbia. The establishing of the
State University was apr we'd on the
18th day of February, 1889.
The University is a big thing; but
it is costing the taxpayers of the
state some money but if the people
were not satisfied, they would proba-
bly, let hat fact be known. That in
stiturion is asking the legislature for
about 81, zoe, 100000, and will probably
get it. We are not qualified to say
how much money should be appro-
priated for the purpose, and are will
ing to leave that with the men we
have sent to the Legislature.
We do no know whether there is or
is not a student from Iron county at
tending. Be that as it may, if the
poor people of other parts of the state
are able to give their sons and dau-
ghters an education, when they could
not do so, were it not for the State
University, we would not enter an
objection.
We have been looking over the Of
fetal Manuel of the state, and find
that the State University is in real
ity a bigger thing than we had sup
posed, and for that reason we feel
that it might be a very nice thing to
publish something that would be cal
culated to give a comprehensive idea
of the cost and Importance of that
institution. When the Official Manuel
of the state was compiled, there were
3,081 students attending the various
departments.
