Again, the protests against child-labor

for which they cite many statistics and
much convincing proof, that practical
experience has demonstrated that child
labor does not supplement but displaces
the labor of adults. Fortified with like

summed up the discussion of the even

more, every word of which went right
home to the heart. Mr.. Castle told the
story OF the organization of the commit

of 2, 500 who were willing to work at 81

The Matter Comes Up Before the
Chamber.

The Matter Comes Up Before the
Chamber.
AT the chamber of commerce yester-
day the market house and public
library question came up on a report by
Mr.. Tighe that the present quarters of
the library are entirely inadequate,
ill-designed, improperly located, badly
ventilated, uncomfortable and forbid
ding and the tendency is to defeat the
educational purpose for which it is in
tended. That the mar ket house is
source Of expense; that the
total income received from it
is more .hau consumed paying
for lights and fuel janItors and
other expenses; that the upper story Is
practically unused, and the lower story
must be repaired; that to make the
building available for rent and for the
use of the library it would cost S24, 900.
the lower story, $1,000 for general re-
pairs. $1,000 for fitting halls in half of
the upper story and $4,000 for fitting the
other half for library purposes. That
there is no funds available for the pur-
pose; that if this was done it might de-
lay or defeat securing other and proper
location for the library.
Mr.. Hackett submitted a resolution
by request, looking to leasing to Mr..
Campbell or other parties. Campbell
proposed to lower the lower story and
refit the building if ten years lease
were granted, subject to cancellation
after FIVE years, no charge to the city
for improvements if lease runs seven
years. On motion of Mr.. Stevens the
whole subject was recommltted for sug-
gestiOns as to the sale, use or leas-
ing of the building. MessrS. Pyle,
Sanborn, Gilbert, Andrews, Jaggar and
Clough joining III the discussion. None
specially favored. Messrs. Andrews
and Pyle bitterly opposed using for
library purposes. MIR. Andrews pre-
Sented resolution, which was adopted,
favOring all appropriation by congress
for connecting the Mississippi and Lake
Superior. A New York Chamber of
Commerce memorial in relation to the
income tax was properly referred. Com
