Dakota University Fire and Church Recovery Appeal
A strong appeal on behalf of the M E church and Dakota University follows the March fire that destroyed the Sioux Falls granite campus building valued at 50 000 with 7 500 insured. The piece notes the school’s enrollment of 1 12 students and 1 00 entering, calls for funds, and mentions potential donor aid from Senator Stanford scaffolding a rebuild. It describes the Dakota Conference history and the need for a second to none institution, plus a political aside on the 1880 weekly Capitol and local cyclone news.
