THE PUBLIC LIBRARY.

How valuable is the Paducah public
library and how well appreciated 1t is,
are shown by the remarkable statis-
tics of attendance and the circulation
of books. In four years the circula-
ton of books has increased from
$500 to 32.527. That does not rep
resent the increase in the number OF
books. which has been necessarily
modest on account of limited appro-
priations, but 1t represents the times
they are read. The public schools
are the great producers of library
patrons. Children are taught TO use
the library, and taste for good liter
AZURE is cultivated. When they leave
school. they are no more able to quit
patroniMng the librsry and good
books, than those, who do not at
tend school, are able TO quit other
kinds of habits. In towns where
libraries have existed a great many
years, the most regular patrons. be-
sides the school children, are work
ingmen, and during the hours between
factory closing time and supper time
the libraries are filled with men, get
ting books to take home. The public
library, like the public school, is a
poor mans institution. The rich can
have their own private libraries. The
annual circulation of books has
shown a gradual increase for three
years. each succeeding year SHOWING
gain OF about 1000. The figures
also speak well for courteous and ac-
commodating management, that goes
to stimulate patronage and makes the
patrons feel at home among tn.
books.

SCHOOL BOOKS

Bills, emancipating first, second and

introduced in both houses of the gem

actment. At present the price, quail

fixed by the state, and It is charged
that inferior books are being dumped

that only one concern in the United
States has been a bidder for the state
patronage, so that the present law
has created a practical monopoly

do. Under the proposed new law
each city, of the classes designated
will have the right to select its owl
books and mark out its own course
of study, the only provision as t.
price being one to protect the cities
compelling concerns to sell at thu

are attempting to run the American
Tobacco company, the biggest buyer
of all, out of the state, and as they see

be that the trust will locate in Gin

will be for rent. Members OF the

radical lines of procedure. They
have already declared q combination
of agricultural produoeH legitimate.
and they propose to make it a pun

his pledge to a pool of planters for

At the same time they are making
