When we read one day this week ' that President Blackstone of the . Alton railroad had just presented his ‘ native town of Bradford Conn. on the sound just east of New Haven. with a Public Library building cost- ing $300,000 and then gave the town $200,000 more as an endowment. fund to buy books, etc. Well, we envied Bradford; in 1890 the population was 4640, but a little more than we have: they have Long Island Sound to look out upon, and we have Lake Michigan. 'Just think of it; the in- terest of it,’ the interest of $2tll,0tl), or $80tll to $10,000 per annum to pay current expenses and buy books. Here we get $200 to $300 a year. and $100 or more is used for run ning expenses. When we get to be ' postmaster, giving the town $300 a year. it will have instead of $100 as now to buy books, about 55(1). for none of ours will go for expenses. and We, guess We shall compel the city to put’ $300 into books.

Park, or mtfléfihér'e' else will us some money for a libra- ry building, not a quarter of 3 milâ€" lion, but SSMM' or $10,000 more, and then someone also help us on the books.
