THE PUBLIC LIBRARY MOVE
MENT

nj ESSRS. Frank X. Scott, George
M Young and Ricketts, Nelson,
the committee appointed to Sc
cure subscriptions to stock for a Pub
lie Library, have begun their work.
and have met with some very encour-
aging responses Certainly the object
is most worthy one and should re-
ceive the support of the community on
the high ground of public service. No
one seems to doub, the value such an
institution would be to the people OF
this town and neighborhood; the only
question is as to securing adequate
financial support We cannot. how
ever, think il impossible for the public
spirit Of the place to show itself equal
to maintenance OF an institution that
would be OF so much public service.
What good is money unless il is used
in min:stering to the best things?

Surprises will never cease in con-
nection with street improvements in
Walla Walla. and when injunction
suits and mandamus proceedings are
not occupying public attention, mis-
takes made in grades and other things
are always available. The latest de-
velopment is in connection with the
Improvement of Rose street by the
Rich &, Harris Construction COM
pany, excavation having been taken up
this morning on the block between
Third and Fourth streets. The floor of
the new fire station has been found
to be almost eight inches lower than
the street grade. and authorities are
today racking their brains for some
means of remedying the defect, other
than constructing a new floor in the
building.
Just who is responsible for the mis-
take in grade has not been determined
tn certainty. but it is known that
the station floor If the pavement is
laid on the original grade will be
nearly a foot lower than the street.
