Matters at New Richmond.


EDITOR JoURNAL-Dedfi Sir. Hav
ing spent yesterday in the city of New
Richmond, it occurs to me that some
of the things observed there may be
Of interest to your readers. Most of
the business men have found temper
airy quarters, and others are now
building. No permanent buildings
are going up yet, except the city build
ing and the mill Office. Very little
complaint is heard among the people,
but all, though realizing that the
sums already subscribed for their re-
lief are woefully inadequate, are going
hopefully to work to recover their lost
fortunes. Those who have not lost
their ALL are doing splendid service in
aiding those who have. Notable
among these is o. w. Mosher, who has
given all his time and labors gratis TO
the work of relief, while he has, by his
personal recognizance, made it pos
sible for several OF the leading bust
ness men and heaviest losers, who
have not asked or received a dollars
help from the committee, to reopen
their places OF business, and then he
has followed it up by giving one thous-
and dollars to the relief fund. The
committee yesterday posted its first
list of awards, and it is notable that
every one of those to whom help was
awarded was householder, laborer,
who had lost his all in the storm, and
whose only help must come from the
committee. 1t is policy Of the com
mittee to help first those who are
without other sources of aid, and TO
let those who can in any way do SO
wait for their relief.
1t seems to be the object to get the
work Of rebuilding the residences go
| ing at the earliest moment possible,
| believing that the business portion
will then follow.
Very truly yours,
i w r. AMES

Some Of our people have thought
that in the work of relief at New

were getting large share Of the re.

derstanding Of the method committee
1t is true that the old committee paid
for all work done, but when the work
was done for some man able to pay
for it, the amount was charged back
to him and he paid the sum over tC
the committee, so that the relief fund
was left for those who needed it.

At the annual school meeting the
need of suitable room for the primary
grades was urged. These grades have
been accommodated in the best way
possible, under the circumstances, in

liar temporary purpose before the ad.
dition was made to the west side of
the building. The room Is not at all
suitable for the confinement OF child
rem. 1t is low, damp and poorly
lighted 1t is an impossibility TO
make it suitable for school room
But as no well-devised substitute was
presented to the action Of the meet
ing it was thought advisable to cons
tinue the makeshift until some defin-
tie plan for an addition could be de-
termined upon. 1t was suggested
that an addition of two rooms, one
above the other, could be built on the
north end of the house, convenient Of
access ar6 readily heated, at a mod
errte possibly for 5000.
