The City Government md the Public Lii
brary.
TO the Editor Of the Press:
In your report of a late meeting of the City
Government find the following: "Mr. G. e.
Jose on behalf of the Mercantile Library said
he thought that that institution had equal
claims upon the city with the Public Library.
They asked for $1,000. This was all he had to
say on behalf of the Association"
Having expressed such an opinion, it seems
to me he should have explained on what he
predicates his claim of equality; the relation
which the two institutions sustain to the pub
lie being SO widely different. Do they propose
to make their library free and keep it open to
the public, on condition the grant is made? Or
do they ask it for their exclusive benefit?
Suppose some of our wealthy citizens should
conclude to set up private schools for their
own children, and ask the city for portion of
the school money to pay the expense of the
same; what would be the difference in princ-
pie between this claim and that presented by
Mr.. D.? while the proposition of the Trustees
OF the Public Library, if accepted, would in
troduce very important element into our gen.
eral educational system, and directly benefit
the great mass of our rising population.
It's evident that if Mr. j. ''spoke by author
ity," the NJ L. A. will need no appropriation
from the city to pay their ice bill.
Again, "Mr. Holden, for the Mechanics AS
ISOLATION, asked for share of the funds, if any
were to be given to other associations. He
thought that the raising of small associations
would reach different classes, and be produce
tive OF more good than one grand consolidated
library. Does Mr.. Fl. mean to say that small
libraries, owned and managed by different
classes for their especial benefit, and available
to none except on the payment of an annual
tax of two to five dollars, and open but three
four hours n wpptx ha iva of
more good than one large one, free to all and
open every day?
And will Mr.. HI. hazard his well-earned rep.
utation as a financer by recommending tile
establishment and maintenance of several Ii
braries in sucl city as Portland, the expense
OF each of which must be about the same as
for one large one furnishing the same advanta-
ges and facilities?
hope the Trustees and other friends of the
Public Library will press their claim till a de-
cisye vote is reached and that it will be taken
by yeas and nays, and be published in the pa
perS for future reference. e. r.
