The people who do not investigate or
only in an Indifferent way, make an
application of what other people have
discovered, establish their standard of
civilization and stamp 1t indelibly on
the history of their time. Individual
success depends definitely on earnest
application. Collectively the studious
character of a people determines the
greatness of the nation.
And yet there are too many who dc
not appreciate the benefit that is deriv-
ed from the money now raised and ex-
pended for the present system of edu-
cation. The payment of teachers and
professors ought to be more liberal and
the tenure of their respective positions
ought to be more secure, except al
ways that of a teacher or professor who
fails in ability to impart instruction or
is weak in character. The course of
the life work of the Individual is fire.
quently determined by his teachers.
The best work of mankind, the work
that appeals to the spiritual nature or
applies to the practical or material
things in life has ever been done by
persons who largely sacrifice the time
for other attractions and devote the
more active part of a life to a particu-
lar work or line of duty. The special
list in each of the emu of industry
the word industry | wish to be taken
in the broadcast sense in life work
must keep aloof from the fascination
of attempting a wide range on several
subjects.
Thus while many toward the close
of their life work have had a feeling of
regret that they did not try to c a
broader horizon, the world owes them
a debt of gratitude for the work they
have done and are doing.
The average person PUSHES through
life, much as the hurried individual
crosses the continent on a railroad
train. He catches a glimpse of beauti-
fields, majestic forests, mirrored
lakes and bold headlands. He knows
little of the method of cultivation that
makes the fields productive. He rough,
ly estimates the wealth of the forest,
and If he has a longing to camp among
trees it is through a sentiment inner
tied from his ancestors, a love of ma
ture that | trust may never be
eradicated. The average citizen cal
culates the economic value of the

headland with drill and dynamite
if it obstructs his way, but if

things from books and lectures of a
practical nature hat will equip and
strengthen the individual for better
work in his chosen vocation.
| believe that Mr.. C%arnegie's heart,
IN his generous donations, goes out
particularly to all persons who are sit
uated as he vas situated, when it was
a pleasure for him to have the oppor-
tunity of obtaining books from the IL
brary of a friend.
The principle on which all of the
Carnegie donations for library build
ings is made, is on the theory that he
will render assistance to those com
munities that accept the gift with the
understanding that they will support
the library after the completion of the
building. | here quote the words of
Mr.. Carnegie on the question, What is
the best gift that can be given a com
munity?' The result of my own
study of the question, what is the best
gift that can be given a community
is that a free library occupies the first
place, provided the community will ac.
cept and maintain it as a public insti.
tuition, as much a part of the city prop.

as an adjunct to these"

Dedicatory Exercises.

The beautiful Carnegie building, To-
Gated at the corner of Fourth and
Grand venue, in the heart of the city
and very near its geographical center,
built at an expense of more than 500
600. the funds being the gift of Andrew
Carnegie, is now the property of the
people Of Albany county, in the pos
session of the board of county com
m~issioners, operating through its duly
constituted board of trustees of the AL
bany county library, the keys having
been delivered to Mr.. Corthell, a men,
Der of the board of county commission
ers, and it's chosen representative, by
the chairman Of the building commit
tee, and by Mr.. Corthell handed to Hon.
w. H. Holiday, the president Of the
board of trustees of the library.
The formal transfer of the property
was made in the presence of as many
people as could find seats in the beau
tiful auditorium in the second story of
the building, the gathering being a rep
r~esentative one, every class of citizens
being represented in the audience. On
the platform were grouped the three
members of the building commission,
DR.. Aven Nelson, Hon. Eli Crumrine
and Hon. w. H. Holiday; Bishop
Keane of Cheyenne, bishop of the Cath
Ollie diocese of Wyoming; Rev. R. Ad-
church in this city; Judge H. v. S.
Groesbeck and Mr.. N. e. Corthell, a
member of the board of county COM
m~issioners. In front of the platform
was the university orchestra, under the
leadership of Prof. Graepp of the col
lege of music, the members of the or
chestra embracing students and others.
The seats we're filed with people of
the city to the number of several hun
dred.
The orchestra rendered a number,
beginning at s O'Clock, which was
quite we'll received. Mr.. Crumrine, who
presided at the meeting, introduced
Rev. Lansdell, who delivered 'fervent
prayer OF blessing upon the men who
had builded So well n upon the pref
ty and useful work of their handicraft.
DR.. Nelson was then introduced and
gave a history of the building, being
himself the inspiration, in a way. He
told of the inception of the idea to Sc
cure from the generous and public spir-
tied ironmaster a donation for a library
here. He had been at Cheyenne, where
he met Hon. Robert c. Morris and 9TH
er gentlemen, when the matter had
been preached. AS a result OF this
meeting DIR. Nelson came home ana
consulted with Mr.. Crumrine, who, he
had heard, was also interested In the
asking for a donation, and together
they prepared a letter to Mr.. Carnegie,
enclosing some printed Information
concerning Laramie and Albany coun-
ty. The great ironmaster was abroad
al the time and his private secretary
acknowledged receipt of the letter and
the package Of printed matter. 1t was
several months before a reply came
and then the correspondence began
which finally brought the promise from
Mr.. Carnegie of a donation of $4,000

ty of each product of the fields he goes
to the agriculturist who has made this
work a special study. If he wishes to
know why the trees grow to a seeming
perfection in certain localities While
other large areas are destitute of wood
land, he goes to the scientist who has
made a study of the peculiar effects of
climate on vegetation. If he would
know how the basin of the lake was
followed out, or why the mountains
rise above the level of the plain, he
goes to the geologist who may have
given a life study to this particular

One does not expect exact informa-

mentally all that tempts his curiosity.
The Observation-Disclosures Is never master
of any.
But Notwithstanding the exact
knowledge of the specialist, the
scientist and the inventor, the cooper
alton and best thought of the rapid
traveller, the average citizen must be
reckoned with if the oest results are
TO be reached in the common work of
life, including the work of schools, col

Cooperation is necessary for the
best results in everything that man
does. The playwright would as profit

inventor would return to it's natural
elements without benefting mankind
If there was not an intelligent use or
appreciation of its application. Thus
it seems necessary that the specialist,
the scientist, the inventor and the ay-
erage citizen must work in unison that
the world may have the best results OF
the work of all.
This library is not exempt from the
necessity of earnest cooperation by the
people If it is to be the public benefit
that it may be with such united sup
port. If l understand the wishes of
Mr.. Carnegie in making appropriations
now amounting to approximately $40,-
600 900, to be used in establishing
about 1000 libraries in the several
states and a great school of original
research at Washington, it was that
the whole people may be benefited
thereby; hat millions of people may
find their pathway through life made

saying too little" Education, and liter
ature in the broadcast sense, are lin

gressive, and apply to every human in

mar nature. In the field of scientific
research the student only passes on to
another part of the wonderful domain
where he investigates the work of ma
ture and adds the information he gains
to the fund of knowledge, which be-
comes a part of the literature of the
times. The knowledge thus gained Of

In this connection how quickly the

ern expressions of the same eternal
truths that, in this life at least, by

There never has been any doubt in
my mind as to the loyal and intelligent
support that the free library, properly
oused and intelligently directed, would
receive in Albany county.
The progressive spirit in all matters
pertaining to support of schools and
the study of literature, as manifested
by the people n by the Library asso-
citation, started in the early days OF
Laramie, has never Jagged. So well
was this understood in the early settle,

Washington, ID. c., 24.-The in
.surrection against the statehood bill
failed and the organization in the
house triumphed by a vote of 1872 to
165. The result was announced at
2:10 p. m. Intense silence prevailed
when the statehood call was made.
The gallery was crowded early in an
ticipation of a fight. Prominent among
the visitors was Mrs. Roosevelt and
Miss Alice Roosevelt. Four policemen
preceded them into the executive gal
lery. The fight opened Immediately
after the reading of the journal, at
1905 O'Clock. There were some alb
sentees on both sides. A hum of ex
element prevailed as Dalzell of Penn
~sylvania arose to submit the following
privileged report" This report was
the rule previously agreed upon by the
house committee on rules, providing
that the debate on the statehood bill
shall continue to 3 p. m. Thursday. At
that hour the Hamilton bill was to be
reported to the house, ~whereupon i'm
mediately and without further debate,
intervening motion or appeal, a vote
should be taken on the Hamilton bill
for its final passage. An agreement
was speedily reached between Dalzell'
and Williams, the democratic leader,
that debate on this rule should CON
tinue until 2 p. m, each to control one
half the time. The vote was announced
at 2:10 p. IN.
Williams protested against making
the question of The permanent welfare
of the two great territories a partisan
question. Payne of New York, the
republican floor leader, took the
ground that the bill was a party
measure because considered in a party
conference. IF the democrats ever
gain control" he said, they will admit
the four territories as four states. New
