NINE BUREAU, IMPRESSED
WITH MOSCOW
Local Citizens Optimistic Over Out
look For Securing Mine Expert
ment Station

Van H. Manning, head of the fedora
mine bureau, and his associates who
were here yesterday visiting the uni
versity, left this morning to inspect
the Washington state college at Pull
man to complete their survey of poss-
ible sites for the Northwest mine ex-
pertinent station. 1t was learned to-
day that Mr. Manning and his assoc
iates were greatly impressed with the
advantages presented by the universi-
ty and expressed pleasure and sur
prise at the extent of the mining de-
partment.
Local citizens are optimistic over
the possibility of the station being
located at Moscow. 1t was pointed
out that every argument advanced
thus far has greatly strengthened the
claims of Moscow for the station. 1t
was learned that at Wallace Mr.. Man.
ming and his associates were advised
by the leading mine operators OF that
district, that at first plan had been
perfected to advance some point in
the Occur d'Alene mining district as
the location for the station, but feel
ing this would appear selfish, it was
agreed that because of the superior ad-
vantages afforded at the University of
Idaho that the combined interests in
the Occur d'Alenes would back the
in it's claims for the sta
ton. 1t is stated that Mr.. Manning
was told that if the station were To-
Gated at Moscow that unlimited sup
port would be accorded but if the sta
ton were located elsewhere they
would not feel interested
Boise has come to the aid of the uni
versity in it's endeavor to secure the
station. The board of directors of the
Boise Commercial club Thursday sent
the following telegram to Director
Manning.
Believing that Idaho is one of the |
greatest mineralized state in the |
Union, and destined in time to be-
come the largest producer of precious
