A MIsrAKE-We look upon it as unfortu

ment, that Rev. Pierce was made one OF the
canvassing committee. From q report lie
made to the meeting last night it appears
that he has sought memberships upon certain
condi ions. The meeting OF Monday even
ing one week ago. gave him no authority
whatever in this respect, and he has simply
assumed it. Rev. Robert Boyd was chair
man of that committee. and yet Pierce makes
out and reads as chairman, report that
embodies matter ~h ch belongs entirely to
,ae present library officials. Modesty should
have prompted him to consult with, not
only the chairman Of the committee, but as
well, the library officials. His hints at
new library association, and certain presump-
items, savors Of desire on his part to create
some sort OF misunderstanding between the
library officials and the reading room people,
that would make an opportunity Tor an
attempt to build up the reading room Inie-
pendent OF the present library.
