PRESIDENT C. E. BUNNELL
SAILS FOR JUNEAU ON ALASKA
President Chas. E. Bunnell of the |
Agricultural College and School of
Mines, at Fairbanks, passed through |
Seward Saturday night en route to j
Juneau, where he was called before \
the appropriations committee to ex
plain some matters in connection with
moneys wanted for the college. Mr.
Bunnell stated that Fairbanks looked
ripe for a good mining business this j
year, as the two English companies
are paying out much money on op- |
tions for claims in that vicinity.
He stated that although the college |
was badly hampered for lack of room
the attendance was steadily increas
ing, and that it was a great boon to
students desiring an education at a
small expense. A dormitory is badly
needed as is also a building to be used
as a museum for the thousands of
line exhibits from all parts of the
Territory.
Mr. Bunnell may make a trip to Se
attle before returning north.
