lost sight of the great army of privates

the strength of the reinforcement Mr.

library in the modern sense. and suggested
as the best plan Of campaign for such

upon the creation by Congress Of a library
to be maintained on the same basis as the

for such a library; ca to secure. either
through a separate bill or through a pro-
vision on the District appropriation bill,

providing for its municipal maintenance:

while there is Just cause of warmest
congratulations both to the board of trade
and to the whole community in the fact
that the library Legislation so much de-
sired has been finally won, il is to be re-
membered that the task set for itself by
the board has not yet been fully accom-
plished.

he Editor of The Evening Star:

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
Permit me. through the columns Of YOUR
valued paper. to enter a strenuous protest
against the editorial of November TO- re-
lating to the "roping Of Streets" wherein
you state that DIR. Woodward is on the
right track when he urges the passage of a
law or the adoption of a regulation re-
stricting the privilege Of roping of streets
in cases Of sickness.
l have no doubt that the practice is
abused. but If 1t relieves the agony and
mental trouble Of one sick person out of
ten, then the ropes do a good work. and
any doctor or professional nurse will tell
you that the organ grinder, milk man. ice
man, umbrella man, the garbage man and
his horn, the huckster, etc, are by the
ropes kept at some little distance from the
stricken home. and all the tan bark In the
noises incident to the delivery Of merchan-
disc at the different houses
w nile II puts many people to great incon-
Venience. yet l believe the average person
with sickness or disease, and willingly is
lnconvenienced, and gladly makes the
slight sacrifices owing to these blockades
Let The Star endeavor to secure the adop-
ton OF regulations restricting the incessant
noises of the street vendors and the rela-
tives and friends Of the sick will have
strong reasons for thanking your paper for
espousing another good cause w. H.
Another communication has been received
on this subject, as follows:
To the Editor of The Evening Star:
Now that the agitation of the abuse of
the street roping. where sickness is is
called to the notice of the Commissioners
by the health officer, a suggestion is in or
der: by all means do away with 1t: il is NOT
just to the travelling public. Do not use
tan bark; II you do, your sewers will be
filled with it: the poor cannot procure IL.
Instead, let each physician have a few
signs made. such as used by the paving
companies to warn drivers of the steam
rollers: have inscribed on each in Iarg.
plain letters. Sickness: walk horses: keep
quiet. Place two of these signs in the
middle of the street either side of the
patients house. at night remove to the
Sidewalk. replace in the morning when the
noise begins. This plan has been tried in
this city several times with success
