PUBLIC LIBRARY HAS FILE
OF COMPLETE WAR DATA
Pamphlets and Clippings Gathered
by DR.. Bowerman Give Full
Facts on Struggle.

As connecting link between the
books and the magazines of the Public
Library there has grown up there a
filing system of pamphlets and news
paper clippings which constitutes a
most interesting feature of work at the
institution.
This collection is especially rich in
matter relating to all sides of the Eu-
ropean war. the filing system being so
filed with articles and pamphlets upon
the subject that the overflow fills half
a dozen or more boxes in the ante
room, where all the material is kept.
AS pamphlets setting forth the vari-
Gus sides of the war come to the Ii
brary they are carefully scanned by
Or. Bowerman, and If of permanent
merit are placed In the collection. where
they are available to the residents of
the city.
One man recently spent several days
of unavailing search after figures re-
gar6ling a certain phase of the big war.
He was almost in despair. when he
thought of the Public Library. and call
ed u up on the telephone. Within
twenty minutes he was in possession
of the figures he desired. This is but
one instance of the service the Public
Library can render to students of the
great war through its very complete
file of war material
The pamphlet and clipping collection.

war but covers the best of recent I'M

Colombia Treaty to Go 0ver.

The proposed treaty between. this
country and Colombia, which seeks to
placate Colombia for the secession of
Panama with an apology and the pay
ment of S15.O00,0O0, will not be brought
up for consideration in the Senate at
the present session of Congress, it was
learned today. Republican senators
have declared their intention of fight
ing the treaty, and this means that the
necessary two-thirds vote, required to
ratify treaties, cannot be had in the
Senate.

Carlos Manuel de Cespedes. minister
from Cuba, who had been asked by the
President of Cuba to attend the ex-
erciSeS his representative, delivered
an address.
He said. in part, as follows:
In honor of those martyrs of duty the
floral offerings of Cuba have been sent
TO be placed, once again, where the
grandiose monument erected to their
sacrifice rears its towering masthead
lean patriotism amidst the sacred
tombs of your heroic dead. in sign of
reverence and perpetual gratitude.
Within a short time another beautiful
monument, now being executed by an
inspired artist, will be unveiled in
Habana, and dedicated to the battle
ship Maine, as a Cuban national tribute.
There is something that speaks of a
profound solidarity of principles and
ideals in this unfailing mutual cult of
dramatic page of history by your
great people and ours. which preluded
the birth of Cuba as a free republic,
ever to be an Independent and SOW

Especial stress is placed on the wa
riana' of the collection. this being a
topic in which the public is greatly
interested. The library is in constant
receipt of documents of all kinds from
the various publicity bureaus of the
warning nations. Especially complete
are the library's files of diplomatic cor
respondence. both of bound volumes
and the various colored books of the
nations as they were issued.
War books on the shelves OF the
library are in large demand. These
are admirably supplemented by the ma
terial in the pamphlet and clipping
room.

Fought for the Oppressed.

That the cry of the oppressed has
been back of every war in which the
United States has participated was the
declaration of Byron r. Newton, as
sistant secretary of the Treasury.
IN the battle front of every conflict
in which American soldiers have
fought has waved the banner of equal
ity and justice" he said. I'VE have
waged no wars of conquest. We have
never slaughtered our brothers to sat-
isfy the greed or the ambitions of ar
rogant rulers.
I'VE have drawn the sword only when
the piteous cry for deliverance came
from some oppressed sufferer, and over
the grave of every American soldier it
seems to me we may feel that the an
