BOARD REVIEWS
LIBRARY SITUATION

At the request OF the Chamber OF
Commerce since there seems TO be
some misunderstanding concerning-
the county library and the proposed
erection OF a Carnegie library build
Ing the city library board makes the
following statement;
In the fall OF 1916 our board agi-
tated the matter OF the establish
mont OF n county library and peti'
tions we're circulated asking the
county court to establish one and set
aside a sum not to exceed one-fourth
OF mill tax annually for Its sup
port. These petitions we're signed
by 1859 voters and taxpayers.
After some delay the county court
set aside $500 to be used for the
purchase OF books for the year 1917
with the understanding that the
books should be owned by the coun-
~. but purchased by and kept In the
city library. Later the city council
made q proposition 10 the county
court that the county take over the
offer which the city had obtained
from the Carnegie corporation OF
3i2.500 to be used In the erection Of
a library building. The city had not
felt financially able to accept this
offer as II had no available site. The
council proposed that the city
should continue to give $1,000 an
nually. the amount II Is now appro-
priating to the library. and that the
county court give $500 cash. light.
heat and janitor service. and q site
on the court house grounds: an
agreement was made and since the
amount given BY the city and county
for maintenance was approximately
S2.400, and the building was for a
county instead Of city library. the
Carnegie people were asked to In
crease their offer TO $4,000 or S20,-
900. They refused. saying the sl2.-
500 had been reserved for us and
no more could be given. The county
court then wrote asking that the Of
fer might hold over for time, CIV
Ing as reason the increased cost OF
material. the war. and also because
OF the recent erection Of court
house they did not feel able to add
to the sum given. The reply was,
''the building must be erected now
or the offer named be withdrawn"
The county court then asked the IL
brary board to allow them to use
the $500, which had been set aside
for books this year, providing the
building was erected, to which we
agreed.
We would all be more than glad
to delay the erection OF this build.
ing until after the war, when the
cost OF materials may be less. but
the question which confronts lis Is:
Shall we lose the opportunity TO get
the s12,50O from the Carnegie peo-
pie? This corporation Is not maxi
ing any new appropriations. and we
are Informed the fund Is exhausted
and the affairs OF the corporation
are being closed
Our library board has no author
ity or direct connection with this
matter, but we are in favor OF OBJ
tanning this money and erecting
building. even n It should cost lit
tie more than the gift. In normal
times building suitable to our
purpose could be erected for s12.-
500. This may not be possible now.
We only wish every one to know
the facts and are willing to abide by
the wishes Of the people. At present
our rooms and capacity for services
are taxed to the limit.
