volved Is the least Important part of the
matter.
Kf flclrlic.v or liixtrili-tlou.
The great tiling Is tho efficiency of
thn instruction, both In the liberal aria
and science and In agticultuto. If thoj
buildings of the entire university aro lo
cated sufficiently near together so that 1
the students In onn college, may convenl-'
entty attend another college, this will
very greatly Increase, the efficiency of
the force nnd tho breadth of the Instruc
tion! - it Is a great advantage to students
(n liberal arts to have certain courses in
agriculture. It is of inestimable advan
tage to students In agriculture to be as
sociated with students working in tho
liberal arts. This can only be accom
plished by a consolidated university.
"The problem of tho future development
of the University of Nebraska Is easy
as compared with that of the stato of
Montana. There the agricultural college,
the university and the school of mines
are located In different parts of the state,
In that state there Is now a strong
movement to consolidate all publicly sup
ported higher education In one' Institution, i
That this will be a wise move for the
state of Montana, there can be no question.
"In Nebraska the consolidation of the
entire university can be made at an ex
pense Insignificant with tho advantages
which will come from this change. Very
truly your,
