JAMESTOWN HAS fine
LIBRARY FACILITIES
RECENT BEQUEST IN DICkEY
WILL OF $4,000 ASSURES
THIS,
Five Thousand Dollars Also Given for
Maintenance Of Reading Room
for the Public.

The recent bequest in the will of
A. E. Dickey of 100000 for a library,
and $4,000 for the support of a read
ing room, in memory Of his father,
will give jamestown library facilities
second to none in the state.
The growth of the library move.
ment at Jamestown is typical of what
can be accomplished from small be-
ginnings by judicious and enthusiastic
cooperation. It. was started as a
reading room In 1902, supported by
aid from A. E. Dickey and by mem
bership fees. In 1908 it was reorgan-
lied by Miss Miller of the state IL
brary commission and made free for
the circulation of books.
From that time it's development has
been phenomenal. The number of
readers increased from 22O in 1908
to 1851 in 1910. Rooms were given
1t in the city han where heat and
light were free. An annual appro-
prfation was made for expenses and a
trained librarian, Miss Alice Paddock,
was secured.
Or especial help in this development
has been the continued interest and
labor Of few devoted workers in
Jamestown, chief among whom has
been Mrs. A. NJ. Burt, whose efforts
toward library extension has been un-
'tiring.

UN|0N|SIS FAILED To
gain IN THE ELECTION

London, Dec. 19.-With the final bal
lotings today the general elections
have come to close. Today's results
are not yet known The last three
seats were formerly held by Liberal,
Nationalist and Independent National
it. Standing of parties tonight Is as
follows:
Government coalition-Liberals 270,
Laborites 43, Nationalists u, Inde-
pendent Nationalists 10; total 395.
Observation-Disclosures 272.
Coalition majority 1913.
The return of Nationalists and In
dependent Nationalists in the constit-
uencies yet remaining to be heard
from is considered certain, but there
is possibility of change in Wick
burgs in Scotland which was repre-
sented in the last parliament by a
Liberal. r. Munro The Liberal ma
jorty in this district in the July elec-
tion was 275 and it is considered
doubtful if the Unionists can over
come this
The elections have been the most
remarkable in the histor of British
politics and have upset entirely the
calculations of the Unionists, who had
seriously expected to gain not less
than twenty seats. On the contrary
the Unionists have not only gained
nothing, but are likely in the end TO
suffer loss of one seat.
A brief period of quiescence is ex-
pected to follow the final announce
ment tomorrow, after which te gv-
ernment leaders will endeavro to car
ry out their plans for curtailing the
power Of the Lords and carrying into
effect other important measures in the
new parliament
