BOARD OF TRADE COMMITTEE REPORT Funds and Books Now Needed to Carry Out the Plan. THE LIBRARY TRUSTEES Among the reports submitted to the an- nual meeting of the board of trade, and briefly summarized in the annual address of the president, was an interesting one from the committee on public library, giv- ing a statement of what has been accom- plished in the direction of establishing here a free library. The report said: “The committee on public Hbrary, in a report submitted to the board of trade, and unanimously adopted by it on the 27th of March, 1894, discussed at length the urgent need of a public circulating Mbrary in Washington with rooms open in the even- ing as well as during the day, and sug- gested a plan of remedying this defect in our local educational system. The main features of the committee's recommenda- the maintenance of the public Nbrary, as an adjunct of the public schools. “The report of this committee submitted to the board of trade November 11, 1895, fully developed its contention that the tax- supported library is the only true public library in the modern sense, and suggested as the best plan of campaign for such a@ library (1) to secure a library subscrip- tion list, the subscriptions to be conditioned upon the creation by Congress of a library to be maintained on the same basis as the public schools and to be expended in books for such a library; (2) to secure, either through a separate ‘bill or through a pro- vision on the District appropriation bill, legislation creating the desired library and providing for its municipal maintenanc to secure from the United States what ever may be had in the way of books and space in a public building, but these are not to be essential features of the project and may possibly be obtained afterward if denied at the time of the creation of the library. “While there is just cause of warmest congratulitions both to the board of irade and to the whole community in the fact that the Mbrary legislation so much de- sired has been finally won, it is to be re- membered that the task set for itself by the board has not yet been fully accom- plished. “In the matter of securing a “hrary sub- scription fund for books conditioned upon municipal maintenance the committee has to report that there are available between $8,000 and $4,000 in cash subscriptions, a memorial fund of $2,000, to be increased later to $5,000, the interest upon which is to supply the Mbrary with scientific and other instructive periodicals, and several thousand donated books. A duty still bur- dening the board’ of trade ts to enlarge theee three classes of subscriptions in every feasible manner ungil they fully supply ail the books needed ina thoroughly creditable public library.

Fills Seven Columns of Hin Paper. |" An Atlanta dispatch says of the publi- gation of Watson's letter of acceptance: The letter of acceptance written by Tom “Watson, accepting the populist nomination | for Vice President, was made public to- | day. Seven columns of Watson's people's party paper are devoted to it. The letter is supplemented by four columns of advice to populists to “sit steady in the boat and | hold their party together.” The editorial | tone of the paper is one of fulfilled proph- | ecy. Watson declares that the failure of | the populists to support Bryan in the close | states brought about McKinley's election. He goes into a long review of the circum- stances leading to his nomination at St. Louis, and accepts the vice presidential nomination ‘because I said I would.” He declares that if the St. Louis populist con- vention had nominated a straight populist ticket, it would have been elected. It would, he said, have driven the Hills and Gormans where they belong—in the repub- lican_ ranks—and the Bryans and Blands would have joined with the populists. He complains bitterly of the treatment he has received at the hands of the populist lead- ers, and addresses himself particularly to Senator Butler in this way: “Senator, a reformer has no right to ex- ist if it has no valid complaint to make. Populists cannot denounce the sins of the two old parties and yet go into political co- partnership with them. The moment we make a treaty the war must cease. And when we cease our war upon the whole parties we have no longer any excuse for living. Whenever right compromises wrong it is the right which suffers. The demo- cratic managers seem to resent as a strange piecé of impertinence the fact that the populists dared to nominate a ticket differing at the rear end from theirs. Com- ing to them with the 2,000,000 voters they were begging for and piteously needing, I can say with a perfect assurance of tell- ing the unqualified truth that my arrival on the field of battle was not welcomed as heartily as Blucher was received by Wel- lington at Waterloo. They want my rein- forcements, but they do not want me to lead them. They need Blucher’s troops, but they draw the line at Blucher. That is hardly fair either to Blucher or his troops, nor is it the best way to defeat Napoleon. For this attitude upon the part of the democratic managers I believe that you, Senator, are largely responsible. You made no effort to have me recognized. You pub- licly stated that I would not be notified of my nomination. You went into the fusion policy, over my written protest, with all the zeal of a man who wanted to elect the democratic ticket. In this I think you were wrong. As chairman of the populist committee the party certainly expected you to do all you could to elect the popu- list ticket. “Had you demanded Mr. Sewall’s with- drawal from the ticket he would have been withdrawn. I have a letter of yours in which you state that the democratic com- mittee expected you to make the demand, but that you did not make it. From the perversity of temper with which the demo- cratic managers have refused to do the right thing by the populists, it would seem that they prefer McKinleyism to anything which might seem to be partly a populist triumph. Their subtle purpose is to couple the Bryan election with the complete de- struction of the populist party. “The position taken in this letter will be IF YOUR FOOD DISTRESSES You Take Horsford’s Acid Phoxphate.

There is, moreover, supplemen- tary legislation to be assisied, such as that which will secure for the library about 14,000 uncopyrighted duplicates. in the Congressional Lit which now merely cumber the shelves, and also the 20,000 miscellaneous books in the depart- mental libraries.

These men will not vote for Sewall nor for Sewall elect- ors. If Senaters Jones and Gorman really wish to defeat McKinley let them lose no time in realizing this truth.” Roping the Streets. To the Editor of The Evening Star: Permit me, through the columns of your valued paper, to enter a strenuous protest against the editorial of November 10, re- lating to the “roping of streets,” wherein you state that Dr. Woodward ts on the right track when he urges the passage of a law or the adoption of a regulation re- stricting the privilege of roping of streets in cases of sickness. I have no Goubt that the practice is abused, but if it relieves the agony and mental trouble of one sick person out of ten, then the ropes do a good work, and any doctor or professional nurse will tell you that the organ grinder, milk man, ice man, umbrella man, the garbage man and his horn, the huckster, etc., are by ‘the ropes kept at some little distance from the stricken home, and all the tan bark in the world would not drown their cries or the noises incident to the delivery of merchan- dise at the different houses. While it puts many people to great incon- venience, yet I believe the average person appreciates the suffering of one laid low with sickness or disease, and willingly is inconvenienced, and gladly makes the slight sacrifices owing to these blockades. ivet The Star endeavor to secure the adop- tion of regulations restricting the incessant noises of the street venders and the rela- tives and friends of the sick will have strong reasons for thanking your paper for espousing another good cause. W. H. Another communication has been received on this subject, as follow: ‘To the Editor of ‘The Evening Star: Now that the agitation of the abuse of the street roping, where sickness is, 15 called to the notice of the Commissioners by the health officer, a suggestion is in or- der: by all means do away with it; it is not just to the traveling public. Do not use tan bark; if you do, your sewers will be filled with it; the poor cannot procure it. Instead, let each physician have a few signs made, such as used by the paving companies to warn drivers of the steam rollers; have inscribed on each in large, plain letters, “Sickness: walk horses; keep quiet.” Place two of these signs in the middle of the street either side of the patient’s house, at night remove to the sidewalk, replace in the morning when the noise begins. This plan has been tried in this city several times with success. PHYSICIAN. |HAVE GONE TO WORK Fires Lighted Again in Many Mills and Factories, INCREASED ACTIVITY IN POTTERIES Large Orders Come to the Iron Foundries at Chicago. ee CURRENT NOTES OF LABOR <——) - The Slattley plow works of Springfield, IlL, which have been idle for two mont have resumed operations, with seventy five of the 200 employes at work. The Wa- bash railroad shops, which have been run- ning with half a force, began running with the full force this weck. Charlie Ridgeley, president of the Springfield Iron Company, says that it is indefinite when the rolling mills, which give employment to 6%) to S00 men, and whict closed May 1, will again open. The watch factory, which has only employed 150 hands for some time, will not increase the force for some time at least. A great brick plant is to be established in proximity to San Francisco, which will add materially to the city’s manufacturing interests, and through new methods may lead to @ revolution in that important in- dustry. An organization has been incor- porated, under the name of the California Stone Brick Company, which proposes to expend $6,000 in the purchase of a site and the erection of a building for the man- ufacture of bricks from sand, no other in- gredients entering into their composition than is contained in s2nd or earth. There is a marked improvement in busi- nes among the extensive potteries at Kast Liverpool, Ohio. The manufacturers say that since the presidential election numer- ous orders have been received, and that aithough this is generally considered the dull season, enough orders have been re- ceived in most cases to keep the plants running until after the holidays. The McKinley business boom has struck Chester, Pa., and the trade depression that existed there so long is now being sup- planted by an era of buriness activity. The hammers of the boiler maker and the iron Steamship builder and kindred industries are now beginning to be heard again. Workshops are filling up with busy em- ployes, und dejected countenances, the re sult of long enforced idleness, are being replaced by the bright and saUsfied looks of men who are able to look forward to times of profitable employment and pros- perity. The Industrial World of Chicago says: ron has experienced the impulses of a new and more active life. Pig iron has again advanced from 25 to WW cents per ton, according to delivery, and No. 2 local coke is quoted $1 to $11.75. Southern foundry is also correspondingly higher, and No. 2 foundry is now selling at $11.40 and Orders during the past week have the largest in many months. They come from many sources, and indicate a wide awakening of ir dustrial activity. The plate mills at South Chicago have reopened, and for all kinds of finished mill products there is much better inquiry. But the mills have been famished for orders, and there is no improvement in prices.” The Hooksett mills at Suncook, N. H., will start ap on the Ist of December, after a shutdown for repairs and lack of orders of fificen weeks. The mills give employ- ment to 300 hands, and cotton goods are manufactured. £. C. Stearns & Company, bicycle mak- ers at Syracuse, Y., whose tac y has been closed for several months, will reopen Monday, with a force of 1,200 men, at the same time increasing wages 10 and in some cases 20 per cent. There is to be a new rubber mill started at Bristol, R. 1., for the manufacture of gossamer garments. The building will cost $25,000, and the morey to be expended in the enterprise is all Rhode Island capital. A meeting of Arkansas lumber manufae- turers was held at Little Rock, Ark., to in- formally talk over the sitfation in the lum- ber trade. Many of those in attendance re- ported an increased demand, with suffen- ing prices. ny of the large mills have vooked orders far ahead, COMMISSIONER TRUE Some Remarks Upon Hix Northeastern ELL. Critics, of The Evening Star: ang of the Northeast Citiz Association November 9 the following marks vere, according to your re dulged in: Neat Comminston, Mr. Colvin satd he thought the wssovia- tions should be looking into the matier of the appointment of the next District Com- missiorer. “We want oae from East Wash- ington the next time,” he said. “And,” said President Tucker, a strange thing if you ever ointed from a section other horthwest, and the improvements ty apt to go near where they resi Where does Commissioner Truesdell he was asked. Way up on the heights, and he has a pavement leading almost to his door.” * said Mr. Colvin, “the pavementa are only on one side. And that’s on the side where his house added President Tucker. Idle and reckless statements about public officers are constantly made and are usual- ly unworthy of notice. Unthinking people however, are apt to believe that, becausi unrefuted, they are true. The unjust criti- cism and abuse heaped on the Commission- ers is a poor encouragément to men of ability and integrity to take an office which usually involves @ fluancial sacritice. I am a resident of the “heights” ‘re- ferred to, and I share with all my neigh- bors the firm belief that while the whoie District profits greatly by having the serv- ices of so efficient and public-spirited a man as Col. Truesdell, Washington Heights would fare very much better if it were not the home of a Commissioner. It is well known that were a Commis- sioner to give any real cause for such criticism as the above he would be hound- ed out of office. “Col, Truesdell,” remarks one of these northeastern gentiemen, “has a pavement almost to his door.” Col. Truesdell’s property abuts on four streets. Wyoming and Kalorama avenues are paved with asphalt—entirely at the ex- pense of the property owners, including Col. Truesdell, who, indeed, has paid more than his share. Woodley lane and Co- lumbia road have only indifferent Mac- adam roadways. There is an asphalt paves ment half way up Columbia road hill on one side. It stops two blocks from Col. Truesdell’s property; and it was entirely paid for by the property owners, The fact is that Washington Heights has neve: received fair or just treatment. It pays taxes as though in the heart of the city, and what has it received? It has been given almost no pavements (near- ly every yard of asphalt has been paid for by the property owners), a large portion. occupied by fine residences, has no sewers, no sidewalks and no shade trees.
