The Newtown bee., 1908-08-21

able to say with pride about our new library. It is ours all through-our Washington library. Washington people have given the money for it, people who live here now or have lived here. Washington people have built it. The architect, E. K. Rossi- ter, is one of us, and in addition to his other generous gifts the design of this building was his contribution. The contractor is a Washington man, and those who worked for. him on. this work have been very largely Washington men; and the result is a credit to those who worked, as well as to those who gave. It has been well done. l know that, for l have bothered them by looking on at very large part of the doing. I think those who worked here have had pride in it as public work, which all were interested in having up to the highest notch. The stuff in it is largely Washington stuff. The stones were brought by our farmers from stone walls which were in sight of the building; and this work was done almost without cost. The frame and timbers of this building grew in Washington trees in the woods which you can see out of the library win doWs, not quarter of a mile away, and even if the art memorials of so great beauty came from outside. from London end New York, the people to whom they stand for memor- ial-Mr and Mrs Frederick Gum, Sem ator Orville H. Platt, Mrs Mary Brins- made Brown and Goodrich Barnes were all Washington people, of our nearest and dearest Washington people. This is our library in sense in which libraries do not always belong to the towns which they adorn. We rejoice to have it so. and we believe that we will always enjoy it more because it is so. This is house which we our selves have builded.
 That brings the matter of our library history down fo datp Todav ma dpd- icate to future usefulness what has been so we'll begun. Long may this new and beautiful building stand to give adornment to our village, to pro- vide pleasure and instruction for its citizens, and to commemorate in it's walls and windows and by its very presence those who have been greatly loved and highly honored here in Wash ington.
The Newtown bee., 1908-08-21

as memorial tribute to our deceased son, Goodrich, who was born in Wash. ington, and after twelve years of a life peculiarly sweet and blessed to those about him, died here also. If this suggestion meets with the approv. al of those commissioned to carry on the work, we shall appreciate it and earnestly hope for the completion of the fund.
 Sincerely yours,
 ...... Richard s. Barnes.
 These two large gifts made the li- brary building and endowment an as- sured prospect. But the raising of the further ten thousand dollars in this small community was no light or easy task. It took five years to do that work. It took the cooperation of prac- tically every citizen of the community to accomplish it. would that l could rehearse to you all the individuals and organizations who gave. These were one hundred and forty in number, and as many of these gifts came from fam lilies and organizations which consist ed of many members, many times that number of individuals is included. It would be interesting and also amusing to go over the exciting and interesting events which were gotten up to help this cause. Remember the marvellous circus of 1904, under the capable man. agement of Victor McCutcneon, with the assistance of his many unrivaled stars of the first magnitude; it cleared S70O and gave the town of Washington something to talk about and laugh about ever since. Remember the series of delightful sales, or musicals at the Knoll, or at Mir Barnes, or at MT Ros- siter's. Remember the many plays where we roared with our comedians and wept with our tragedians -oh, we had good times even if we had hard work getting that money.
 The result of these efforts is to-day the assured fact that S25,OOO and S7OO over has been raised. We have our en- dowment of $13,0OO, and we have our new building without a single cent of debt on it. Our building committee has so arranged that every bill is paid, and we have a margin over. It is not a big margin. If I say S25 over, think I have gone as far as 1 dare, but we have not gone beyond the money we have raised to build.
 And friends, this also it is pardon

BOE:RS CHARGED
WITH ACTIVITY
FORMER FOES OF BRITISH
TROOPS SAID TO BE TRYING
TO FORCE CRISIS.

London, Feb. %. = Great Britain is
gradually coming to realize more and
more the chances of a revolt in India,
1t is limited that Beers are melting
the revolt with the ultimate object
easily OWNED. This Interpretation Of
the Boer movements in return for
British magnanimity in giving home
government to the Transvaal is amaz.
ing, but generally credited, even by
the governments critics.
On the other hand, such reformers
as Lala Lajpat Raj are very anxious
to gain home rule for India. Lala Raj
Is, a self-made man. He Is about 40
years of age, was born in poverty and
had an uphill fight to secure an educa-
ton. While still in his teens he be-
gan to practice law. He achieved
such success that the present secre-
tary of state for India designated him
as "an accomplished lawyer" He is
a religious and social reformer, an
educationalist and philanthropist, and
political leader, He is highly re-
spected throughout INDIA.
Mr.. Raj holds that che who sewers
his religions from his politics snaps
the chain that binds earth to heaven"
He always has preached self-help and
self-dependence and had for his slogan
The man Of any country who pre-
tends that foreign domination is for
| its good is either knave or a fool"
He believes that the English are in
India for material gain. He strongly
advocates home rule for Hindustan,
frankly denouncing the English regime
rs having economically drained India
80 that today 1t is a country of famine
and plague, which during the last 25
years has whitened the land with the
bleaching bones Of 25,Ooo,OOO dead
Hindus.
Mr. Raj has travelled extensively,
and in 1906 made tour of America.
He is in no sense an anarchist. Mr..
Raj gained such power and became
SO formidable in India that last year
he was kidnapped from his home in
Lahore. Punjah, spirited across the
continent in the special train and
smuggled into Rangoon. the capital
of Birma, where he was confined in
only tended to increase his popularity
among the masses, who looked upon
him as a martyr and almost worship.
ped him. On the 9th Of last November
Mr.. Raj was released and quietly
transported to his native home after
being incarcerated a little over six
months.
The British war Office is thoroughly
alive to the situation. Orders have
been issued to the officer of the
auxiliary forces throughout Great
Britain. asking that they state
whether mobilization is impossible.
These forces are instructed to be
prepared to move Immediately on re
ceipt of telegraphic orders. They
must keep their adjutants Informed OF
