The big elm tree on the library
grounds which is on the side of the
library that faces jefferson street, is
just now causing considerable discus
sion. and some of it very heated 1t
seems that, in order to carry out the
as designed by architect
Mayer. the aforesaid elm tree must be
cut down. Either the tree OF the i'm
provements will have to be sacrificed.
ut has saken so years to grow the tree
and it is the most handsome one in the
city," say those who oppose cutting it
down. The library board aver that it
is in accordance with the architectural
plans, which, when completed, will be
vastly more ornamental and in keeping
with the general idea of the park and
library building than to leave the tree
and not put in the improvements.
