Ever since the time the Montezuma

arose not only among the old town
people, but likewise among Others on
the EAST side. The Optic states that
the best legal authority of the city
had been consulted, and that the de-
cision had been given that the park
could be used for a public library"
The best legal authorities, like the

may be permitted to state that some
OF the best attorneys have old me that
the park In question could not be used
for anything else but for a park, and
the very minute that one spade Of
ground should have been dug up with
a view of the erection OF the Carnegie
library, legal proceedings against the
city would have been at once institute

three councilmen being aware Of all

Editor Optic:
Your valued journal Of Thursday

to te action Of the city council towards
the erection Of a Carnegie library, AMI
the tone OF the article Gems to put
considerable blame upon those mon
who saw fit to vote against the propo.

M0ntezuma park. Having been a
member of the library board until re-
Gently, when the majority Of the mem

quite a lively interest In the creation
Uf our small library and the maintain

permit me to hold a somewhat differ
cnt opinion In regard to the action Of
the majority Of the city council and
grant me the space for expressing the
same with malice towards none,
with charity towards ALL"
The men who have repealed the
ordinance have done a wise thing, rc-
