In referring to the Free Library
presented to Baltimore by its distin-
guished founder, and BaItimore's
great phiIanthropist, Eaoch Pratt,
Esq, few days ago, We stated, as
we had been authorativeiy informed,
that "the citizens of Annapolis once
enjoyed the advantages Of a free Ii
brary through the. generosity of the
State; but on the plea Of want of
shelf-room, the Legislature directed
the Librarian to box up all the mis-
celIaneous books and store them away
in the basement of the State House."
&c.
Col. Swami, we. are informed, was
librarian at that time and: he report
ed to the Legislature the over crowd
ed condition of the library, and the
great necessity for more room, and the
Legislature directed him to sort out
all miscellaneous works and box them
up. Up to that time it had been the
privilege of our citizens to. go there
and have free use of the books, and
upon his own responsibility the libra
rian could loan the bookst any re-
sponsible person. We believe this
is still the case. It was tbs intention
of the legislature to convert the lib
rary more into law library, and con-
fine it more to the use OF the legal
fraternity. Since then greet changes
have taken place--the librafy building
has been enlarged and greatly aug
mented, and under its present excel
lent management, is free to all, but
the books cannot be removed except
by special permission of his librarian.
We are reliably informed that no
books are boxed up in the basement
of the State House, to the knowledge
of the present State official, and that
the library is as much free library
as it ever was.

so it is. But notwithstanding all
this how tenaciOusly they hold on,

To the Editor OF the World:
The Republican candidate for President.
Mr.. James e.. Blaine, In letter OF October
4. 1884, says: "li is utterly untrue that
ever advocated a residence OF twenty-one
years az q requirement OF naturalization.
On the contrary, l always opposed the
party that suggested it," Does Mr.. Blaine
mean to say that he was never connected
or In any way identified with the so-cslled
know.Nothipg party-or. as Henry wal
son called IL, the American party-or that
he ever belonged to q know-Nothing
lodge or council. II so, he must have
yeiy poor memory OF the past.
When the know-Nothing party was in full
operation In Massachusetts. and they elected
Henry Gardner Governor, was member
Of Bigeiow Lodge or Council I'm Boston.
and ON two occasions l saw Mr.. Blame at
our meetings, and he spoke at them and
strongly advocated the party's principles,
showing that he was member, ~ no one
was admitted but members.
One OF the strongest pianks or principles
Of the party or order was that no FOREIGNER
should be allowed 10 vote Till he had re-
sided In the United States TWENTY OSE
YEARs, the same a. those born here. Mr..
Blame also wrote articles for the american.
