A 5000 LETTER.

This Boost for the Y. M. C. A. Is
Worth That Amount Anyway.
In this mornings mail the following
letter reached the T.-R office which
will be read with interest by every Y.
NJ. C. a. friend in the city. 1t ar
rived this morning, but Is just as well
come as tho it was absolutely neces
sary to the success of the campaign.
1t Is from a regular subscriber and
reader OF the T.-R.
1t says:
II have been watching with great
deal of interest the canvass that is be-
ing made In Marshalltown. to raise
money enough to pay off the indebted
ness of the Y. NJ. C. A. 1 have been
hoping the citizens of Marshalltown
would rally to the support of this most
excellent institution. and put it out OF
debt, as it should be. and l have been
pleased to notice the good work that
your paper has been doing, and the
citizens and the committees generally,
and 1t Is pleasing to me to note that
the goal is In sight.
LAS you will remember, few years
ago when the new building was put up.
l added my mite. Being interested in
Marshalltown. always interested and
believing always will be, not only in
business way, but having heinterest of
the city at heart feel that ! should
contribute to this grand and noble
work. 1 have not been solicited, no
necessity for that. I see there are two
committees doing valiant and splendid
work The heads of those committees
are both friends: the gentlemen on
these two committees, know well and
esteem and / do not know to which
committee any little contribution that
should make would go. So am
prepared to say to you, and you can
say to the committee or committees,
that they may call upon me In due
time for 5000, to help along with this
work. This with the understanding,
as understand the subscriptions are
made, that the entire indebtedness
will be raised.
wishing the undertaking success,
and that the money will be raised, be-

Local Comment

Some people are inclined to ridicule
chautauqua but the mere opportunity
to hear and see the celebrated men of
the day and of the hour is worth the
price of season ticket. The other
lectures are entertaining, the music is
good and the amusement features very
enjoyable. The effemin1te name Of
chautauqua is it's worst enemy and
must be lived down before the enter
prise has to have them. So long as
large attendance.
Didn't that bell ring yesterday do
your heart good?p and it did Every
canvass for public subscriptions is the
most disagreeable work a business
man ever did. 1t always has to be done
by about the same set of fellows and
any one Of them would rather double
the average subscription If he could
buy off from the work Of soliciting.
But they always win when they UNDER
take it, hence the next public enter
prise is to be really appreciatde by

disagreeable as it is. The same thing

management while the rest just help.
or course, the thing that grinds most
is the dispropOrtion in which men give.
The salaried man with four children
will give $50, and thank the committee
for calling, while the man with fat
rents from the business property he
owns Will turn them down with an In
suit. But this campaign was the most
notable Of all that have ever been
made in that some gave in large
amounts instead Of coming in 'on the
level with everybody regardless Of how
much more interest he might have in
the enterprise or how much better
able he might be to give.
Local news columns this week have
mentioned the building of several new
blocks for business purposes. A few
are added to the town every year and
new dwellings go UP every season, yet
they all seem to be occupied the ma
jor portion Of the time. Can anyone
figure out that the town is not grow
ing larger? The T.-R.'s subscription
receipts from subscribers living on car
rier boy routes within the city for the
past twelve months indicate an In
creased list of $50 names over the city
list Of the previous twelve months.
With no change in conditions other
than an increase in population, this
would indicate something more than
100 new families living in the city or
from 500 to 700 more people.
It is seldom that we have city
council with two physicians occupying
seats therein. 1t would seem that an.
ordinance providing for inspection Of
milk and meats ought to be drawn up
and passed without opposition, in fact
the two doctors on the council must
do it or no ordinance Of the kind will
ever pass, for the reason that their
Judgment will prevail on subject OF
this kind and the other members would
not undertake to carry out the sugges-
ton unless the two doctors led off with
hearty support and approval.
