MANUFACTURERS find the sub
Joined statement floating around in the
columns of our exchanges. 1t contains
suggestions worthy Of the consideration
of our citizens. We notice that in all
the towns around us m unusual interest
and activity is being manifested in the
establishment Of various lines Of manu-
factories. independence is as well situa-
ted for such enterprises as any town in
Iowa. and it bchooyes our people, if they
would maintain the continued growth
and prosperity of our city, to make an
earnest move in in this direction. Man.
uiacturvs constitute the only sure guar
anty for the future importance Of our in
land towns, and that community which
neglects to foster and build up manufac-
turing industry, is destined sooner or
later to decay and rctrogrcssion. But
to the extract:
Zone mandatory employing hun
dred men, will support an additional pop
ulation of five hundred people. These
hundred families, or five hundred people
will annually disbursc, on an average
the sum of $3.50 year for each family
or $65, COO in the aggregate. This mo
ney will be drawn into the city from thu
outside, where manufactured products
arc consumed The interest Of this sos,
600 will be Sc, 500 at ten per cent"

The Library.

EDITOR BULLETIN
DEAR SIR:-A single word in the edit
orial comments on Public Libraries"
which appears in your last weeks issue,
may cause misunderstanding among
our citizens ut the beginning of the move
ment.
You speak of Il proposition soon to be
submitted to Our citizens providing for
the purchase of the Association Library
of 400 or 500 volumes.
At the annual meeting of the Associa-
ton in November, the Executive Com.
mittce was instructed to take the steps
necessary for the establishment Of a free
library in our city.
They will first ascertain at the munich
pal election, in March, whether or not our
people favor the movement. Should the
result prove favorable, the present asso
citation will be disbanded as soon as the
tax becomes available and its property Of
every description donated to the city
council. Every cent Of the aid secured
at the polls can then be applied by the
new management in adding to the nucleus
our present libr ry will afford. The en-
closed statute may enable our citizens to
understand more clearly the merits of
the case, and thus prepare them for intel
igcnt action. Gro. B. WARNE,
Pres. LIB Assn.
The statute referred to above will be
found on the second page-ED.

Soribner's Holiday Number.

The third installment of DR.. Hollands
new novel, arthur Bonnicastle," appears
in the January holiday number Of
Scribner's, accompanied by very beau
tiful design from the pencil Of Miss Hal
lock. The same number is rich in short
stories and sketches, the most striking of
the former being SAKE IIolm's "OneLcg
ged Dancers" The list of names in the
table Of contents is altogether the most
interesting and distinguished yet givcn.
William Morris, George Macdonald. Bret
Harte, Philip Gilbert Hamerton (author
of Thoughts on Art" "The Unknown
River etc., Charles Dudley Warner,
Edward Eggleston, Christina Rossettl,
Edmund G. Stedman, G. s. Calverley
(author of Ely Leaves") Edward King,
and William G. Bryant contribute charac-
tcristic poems, stories, sketches, and
essays. Particular attention should be
called to Mr.. Morris's poem 1--WE believe
the longest he has ever published in an
American magazine); MacDonald's OK
quisite rendering Of spiritual Song"
from the German of Novalis: Mr.. Sted-
mans scholarly essay on victorian
Poets;" Col. Higginson's important sug-
gestion in the matter Of intercollegiate
Scholarships" tho splendidly illustrated
article on Virginia; and Mr.. Kings
graphic account of the "Finding Of Liv-
ingstone." Mr.. Warmers might in the
Garden of the Tuileries," and Dr. Egglcs-
toms 'Christmas Club" are both rather
marvellous stories, but we suppose will
not lack believers.
In sTopics Of the Time" Dr. Holland
discusses the Popular Capacity for Scan
