The Alaska Agricultural College
and School of Mines was dedicated
yesterday afternoon with imposing
ceremonies and with about 500 resi
dents of Fairbanks and visitors in
attendance. A special train took a
large number to the college and
many made the trip in autos, about
75 cars being parked near the camp
us during the afternoon. The school
children paraded from the school to
the depot, and took part in the ex
ercises air the college. The parade
was headed by the city band, and
the line of march took the paraders
past the reviewing stand, occupied
by Governor Scott C. Bone and
other visitors.
i Upon arrival at the college, the
ceremonies were opened by Presi
dent Morton E. Stevens, of the
board of regents, who ex-plained the
I purpose of the gathering briefly. He
I was followed by Rev. Fred G.
Scherer, who offered prayer for the
success of the institution, and then
came the flag raising, while the
band played patriotic airs,

dress of the afternoon. He said, in'
part, as follows:
“The opening of this institution,:
the first of higher learning and{
technical training in the Northland,
is a potent sign of the times. It
speaks progress. It tells the world
that Alaska is going ahead. It pro- j
claims, in its name, the fact that!
agriculture and mining are twin re-1
sources of this rich domain. It gives’
denial to the popular fiction that:
Alaska is a forbidding, frozen up
heaval of ice and snow. It empha- i
sizes the real Alaska. It will be a
helpful factor in service to Alaska.
“The President of the United
States hoped to be here on this not
able occasion. It was included in his
tentative arrangements. He looked
forward expectantly to the pleasure
and profit of visiting Alaska. Par
ticularly did he wish to see this
great open country of the Interior.
The thriving homesteads and ex
panse of growing wheat would have
inspired him. He would have seen
here, in this fertile land watered by
the Tanana and Yukon, the Miss
issippi Valley of Alaska. He would
have grasped the full meaning to the
Territory of the Government enter
prise, the Alaska Railroad for which
as senator, he voted, in opening the
mineral, coal and farming lands
along the way. He would have found
and applauded the pioneer spirit
at its best and recognized in all
Alaska a habitable and inviting
land. But his visit is only deferred.
He will surely come. His interest is
abiding.
“Natural obstacles have prevented
the rapid growth of Alaska. Climate
is not one of them. Distance and
inaccessibility are the chief. To these
have been added and imposed for
fifty-five years since the Seward
purchase indifferent and inefficient
systems of administration. They have
been a heavy handicap to settle
ment and industry. But a measure
of coordination is coming about
and constructive policies are now
assured. No longer can it be said
that the Government at Washing
ton is neglectful and unconcerned.
An awakened public interest in the
welfare of Alaska is speeding a bet

been marked during the year and
every prospect is today most heart

“The opening of this Agricultural
College and School of Mines is an
augury of brightest promise. All
honor to those who conceived the
institution and. through Congress
and the Territorial Legislature,
brought it into being. And may it
for all time be guided with wisdom
and ever growing strength and use
