B few facts for Lawmakers.
Commuukaied.
f f ^ f
Tlie most important ques ion now
before the people of Idaho is How
shall we continue to miiiinain our
higher institutions of learning? The
law makers soon to meet will bo con
fronted with a deplorable siiuuiion

will n quire ability and statesmanship
Is it not better to call a hall and con
sider the faillie inten st of our entire
stale lather iliuu to go frorti bad to

localities.
As a risult of past legislation we
are iu the mrque situation of having
a state university, a state normal and,
by implication only, a state agricult
ural college remotely situated
in the Pan Handle of the state.
The Hatch and Morrell fund has by
some twist of tiie wrist been used by
the management of the university
for a number of It be
all right to teach the principles of
irrigation under an umbrella in
theory, but not in practice. Practice
is essential to succès«. Moscow is
but eight miles from Pullman where
is located the agricultural college of
the state of Washington, which was
established prior to the university at
Moscow. Docs any sane man con
tend that Uncle Sam will support
two agricultural schools in a section,
where there are not students enough
for one, especially as the distance
southeast through Idaho is over seven
hundred miles from Moscow.
As our future development iu
agricultural resources will di pend
entirely on reclaiming the millions of
acres of and land in the great Snake
Hiver valley, the agricultural college
or Paining school should be in the
arid belt. For here only can students
acquire a practical knowledge of
irrigation
Iu view of the fact that a new
impluse will be given to n claiming
arid land, by reason of national aid,
now is the lime to locate the agricult
ural college of the stale of Idaho, as
the law requires.
The place should be at jm'.. - '*

The university and n ith normal
schools, being children of premature
birth, will never have sufficient
vitality to be of any gteat value to
tlie slate at large. The university,
in Us present location, will not be
generally patronized, while Whitman

The attempt to establish and main
tain two mutual schools in Idaho was
sheer folly. These are not now nor
will liiere he in Idaho for several
years,a sufficient number of students
seeking a special training for teach

The greatest blunder of all along
educational lines was the establish
