quite snow storm opened the winter cam
paign, covering the earth to the depth of about
three inches. 1t ceased about noon, and the
weather the rest of the day was quite mild,
causing the snow to partially melt.
Although the sleiging was not good, yet the
cutters were gliding around quite briskly,
bringing back the familiar music of the sleigh
bells.
The police were kept busy for awhile notify
ing property owners to clean the snow off of
their side walks. There is a city ordinance
prescribing penalty for neglect to do this.

The ST.. PAUL LlBRARY.-At meeting
of this Association on Tuesday evening, it was
resolved to raise the amount of the Annual
Dues to four dollars. 1t has hitherto been two
dollars. but it was found that this was INSULT
cient for the support of the Library.
We cannot help thinking. however. that four
dollars is too high. Three dollars would do
better. The former sum will put it beyond the
reach of the very class public library is in
tended to benefit, viz: clerks, mechanics, and
employees ON limited incomes The rich can
have private libraries, and do net generally pa-
tronize public libraries. 1t would have been
better, therefore, to have left the dues as low
as possible, and endeavored to support the Lii
brary properly by increasing the membership,
which could easily be done by general effort
of the present members, or by course of lee
lures, &c, annually. We are inclined to think
that the revenue will not be greater under the
new rate of dues than 1t was before, as many
will find themselves unable to pay the advanc
ed rates, unless allowed to pay it quarterly,
which, we are told, cannot be done.

Our Railroad.

The Majors came down Sunday with
the first load of iron for the Union Pacific
Railway, Eastern Division, and landed at
our levse.
Some of our people, thinking perhaps
"the better the day the better the Decd"
got out the cannon and made the hills and
valies reverbsrate with its echoes.
On Tuesday the Majors brought anoth.
or load Of iron and the first locomotive for
the road. The cannon was again brought
out and made to speak the joy of the cit
izens.
The laying of the iron on the ties com.
menced Immediately, and will be pushed
forward with energy till the first section
is ready for the rolling stock. Then bur.
rah for trip to Lawrence by rail.
We understand that the iron for the first
forty miles will be delivered here how as
rapidly as it can be laid down, and two
more locomotives will be here in . short
time.
Who says ''the forty miles of railroad
west from Wysndotte, are forty miles of
humbugs'' A few weeks will tell the story,
and if We are not very much mistaken. the
forty miles of railroad west from Wyan.
do,ts will be living reality, while the for
ty miles of humbug will be west from some

Another Fire I'm Leavenworth.

o'clock yesterday morning. It lasted till
nearly seven o'clock, and literally burned
to ashes every store between the corner of
Third and Delaware streets, on the South
side Of Delaware, as far east as the store
Of Henry eraser.
The buildings were wooden and Of the
most unsubstantial character, and it is re.
ally an advantage to the city to have them
out of the way.
The locality, however was one of the
most popular in tewn for the retail trade,
the stock of goods destroyed were large,
and the loss 10 their owners is most seri-
