STATE LIBRARY.
That Political Squabble Over
Ordering Books.

At the meeting of the Board of State
Library Trustees held at the Lick House on
Wednesday evening last a resolution was
adopted ordering the return to William
Doxey of $4,000 worth of books which. it
was claimed, had been ordered by ex-State
Librarian Wallis after the adoption of
resolution by the new Board of Trustees
prohibiting Wallis from ordering any books
for the State Library without authority
from the board.
William Doxey, who furnished a large
number of the books ordered returned,
stated yesterday:
The order was given me for these books
IN September last. At that time the old
board was in power, and everything was
harmonious. l at once set about filling the
order as have done in former instances.
when called upon to furnish books for this
library. l have filed many orders for the
State Library, and have never had any
trouble before Many of the books could
not be obtained in this country, and wrote
my agents in Europe to secure the desired
copies at once. In February large order was
shipped from London, which was received
here in March. In the time which inter-
vened between the giving of the order and
its fulfllment, a new Board of Trustees
had been elected. They went into office

early in March. and at their first meeting
passed resolution forbiddlng the Librarian
to purchase or receive any books Tor the
State Library.
two boards were divided in political senti-
ments, and the new board had no idea of re-
ceiving books ordered by the DID,
At recent meeting of the Board of
Trustees at the Lick House | was present
at my own request and made a statement
clearly showing the board that at the time
the books were ordered no resolution had
been passed forbidding the Librarian to re-
ceive or even order books and that no
reason existed why l should not fill this Or
der, as have filled many others in the past.
Notwithstanding this statement they
passed resolution directing the Librarian
to return the books. Many of the volumes
furnished are catalogued and stamped with
the State Library seal, which would pre-
clude the possibility of my selling them at
anything like the original cost.
" That the new board may wreak GER
tain amount of pent-up political vengeance
against the eX-Trustees am | to be COM
PEELED to lose several thousand dollars?
Wei, not to any extensive degree; that is
not my business. The Trustees may
pass resolution, or series of resolutions,
ordering the Librarian to return the books.
The Librarian may take the books from
their shelves and pack them in box, and.
marking it William Doxey,' forward the
same to San Francisco, but William DOxey
Will not touch the boOks-not one single
one"
Mr.. D0Xey was asked if he intended to
contest in the courts the right of the Trus-
tees to return the books which he had fur
nished.
He evaded the question by saying that he
knew very little about law.
Some interesting developments may be
expected, as the books are already packed
for shipment as directed by the Trustees at
their last meeting.
