and the Woman's Club to provide 5000

Alderman Gaueer thought that IL the
friends Of the library psoiset really guar
antssd whatever was needed for main
tsnsnee beyond what the council could
legally grant the resolution TO furnish
1880 might properly b approved: but
the understanding should bs that the
public give some guarantee Of the needed
balance.
The mayor urged that the council
should assume responsibility for any sum
over what the city could legally raise as
library was q public institution and =
public benefit.
Alderman Gaugsr said this would seem
70 be misleading TO Mr.. Carnegie.
Alderman Ri,ehie said that he felt tha,
It would DO stretching his conscience
some to vote for this resolution in the
present state o! the the town finances
and the money market. He though, the
proposition was hardly warranted by the
ou,loos bu, he did no, want to block the
library project
Alderman 6auger suggested to Mr..
Richie that he do like the old lady on her
church subscription: shut his eyes and
trust the Lord TO help HIM out.
City Attorney Bsall drafted very de-
tailed and specific resolution In accord
snes with Suggestions. Of Alderman
Sprinkler. but before Il got to the board
the mayor sprung the proposition that as
Mr.. Carnegie did not agree 70 any
wemans' Club rooms annex TO his libra.
siss. yet the lecture room Of the library
building would b available for club meet
ings. therefore all monies now subscribed
should b applied 70 the purchase Of
books.
This was ssssnssd to by the ladies pre-
sent
Then Alderman Sprinkler sprung the
further proposition that In view Of the
present financial strinssney. the time for
the payment Of the Aforesaid subserip-
tons b extended to Sept. LIST.
This proposition was received with
marked approval. and on motion the
clerk read the resolution.
Again Il was amended. 80 that the

$4,000 from Mr. Carnegie.
Alderman Sprinkler moved and Aid.
Gaugsr seconded the adoption Of the
resolution and It went through.
Then the honorable body got down to

some ways and means Of getting such
