point he endeayors to make ia not good one
whom he says that 1t was only fair that tho ap-
preparation Tor tho Public Library should bo re-
duced when tho appropriations for police, tlre,
public schools, etc., wore cut down. All tho othor

and have . supply which rondors 1t practicable to
retrench without seriously imrairing thoy uso-
fulness. The appropriation for tho Public Lii
brary Ia cut down to one.half OF what Ia allowed
by law, aud tliore ia not enough provided to moot

in its infancy, and but meagerly stocked with
