Dr. William P. Gib- bons was the president of the first board of trustees and George H. Mastick was the secretary. The librsr;I' was first located at Park Opera-house. It was removed to Tuckers Hall at the end of a year and re- mained there vntil the present quarters on Park street were obtained. Librarian Harbourne, sketch, says: The State Legislature on March 18, 1878, having passed an act providing for the main- tenance of public libraries by a special tax levy, the trustees, on August 6, 1878, in- stricted Drs. Gibbons and McLean to appear before the Board of Town Trustees and offer to give its property to the City and ask for its cooperation and the sppoiniment of & com- mittee of conference. Town Trustees George N. Williams, W. B. Clement and J. B. Vosburgn re appointed such committee on conference, but not until the last day of the year was the proposition reported on and unanimously adopted. The Free Library thus passed under municival control, to be maintained by public | tax as provided in the act of 1878. i The first meeting of the Trustees of the Ala- meda Free Library and Reading-room was held on January 9, 1879, with J. C. Tucker, George N. Williams, Daniel T. Sullivan, George H. Mastick and Mrs. John Green acting for the town of Alameda, and Thomas A. Smith, W. P. in a historical garet V. Andrews and Helen M. Brown as Ho orary Trustees, representing the old associa- tion. Dr. Gibbons was chosen president, Thomas Smith vice-president and George H. Mastick cretary, and on the 28th day of February, 18 the library was opened for the cireula- tion of books, with George H. Stripp as its | librarian. | In 1880 the Legislature passed a library act | taking the place of the act of 1878, and mak- ing the office of Library Trustec elective. From 1880 to 1884 the Library Trustees were gin, George H. Mastick, W. P. Gib- McLean and Thomas A. Smith. the town of Atameds passed into a city of the fifth class, and under the corporate law the Library Trustees were appointive. The first board, appointed December 29, 1894, was composed of Dr. William P. Gibbous, George H. Mastick, M. P. Wiggin, Dr. J. T. McLean and G. L. Birkmaier. There are upward of 20,000 volumes in the library. Of these books 5960 are works 060 are books of reference and 870 ure of the juvenile class. The circulation of the books in the | library last was 108,270. Mr. Har- bourne says: *‘In 1893 the percentage of | fiction redched as high as 70.8 per cent, juvenile works 20.9, as against 10.3 per cent of all other classes, representing the solid reading matter. For 1894-95 the de- mand for fiction had fallen to 49.4, and that for solid reading advanced to 31.9.”" The following figures are given as show- ing the circulation of books in several | well-known California libraries last year: Los Angeles.........

LIQUOR TRAFFIC DENOUNCED. Keen Words by a Champion of Tem- perance on the Proposed Measures of the C. P. A. The following communication is self- explanatory: To the Editor of the San Francisco Call-DEAR In behalf of your many anti-saloon readers, I thank you for the liberal space given me, in reply to Mr. Edoff’s recent exhibit of his California Proteciive Association. THE CALL is true to label: it “speaks for all.” Not only for the vaunting whisky Goliah, with his hundred millions, but also for the *‘narrow, contracted, intolerant, bigoted, selfish and opinionated” David, with only his despised little sling. Mr. Edoff’s attempted reply in last Sunday’s CALL is manifestly no reply at all. He dodges the main question entirely and refuses to dis- cuss it in any way. Headmits that itwould be “absurd” to attempt to defend, the whisky traflic, when everybody admits that it is wholly indefensible. There can be nothing said to jus- tify the wholesale destruction which it entails upon the public, and so, Mr. E., to make a show of answering, sneers at prohibition and the Prohibition party. He is afraid to stand up like a man and face the terrible indictment placed against the liquor traflic, which he re- presents. But why does Mr. E. attack prohibition and the Prohibition party? There was not the slightest aliusion to either in my letter. The reason is simply this: The one thing on earth, in hell, or in heaven, that Mr. E. & Co. do ac- tuslly fear is precisely what he affects such a haughty contempt for, nameiy, prohibition. The traftic always fights it and does its very worst, in every possible way, to prevent it and to evade or overthrow it wherever it has be- come the law of the land. For example, right + here in Berkeley there has been a wholesome State law in force for many years forbidding the existence of saloons within a mile of the university grounds. It is the acknowledged law of the land, and vet Mr. E.’s people have persistently and defi- antly trampled upon itall the time. Who has furnished these anarchistic criminals with their liquors all these years? Mr.E. and his associates have done so, and thus been parti- | ceps criminis in lawlessness and rebellion aguinst the State. The whole truth is, the liquor traffic is thoroughly selfish, lawless and despotic. It assumes to dictate to political parties, to Governors, Legislatures, courts, Su- pervisors, and even to the Federal Government itself. It thinks itself bigger and stronger than the State or the United States, and pro- poses to take the government of this country into its own hands. Isuppose Mr. E. will turn his nose skyward when he reads that, and answer it with an- other handful of mtd At something or some- body; but the statement is true just the same, and he and all the rest of the horde of bosses know it is true. Why are Mr. E. & Co. so anxious to have the license raised, and so increase their taxes two or three million dollars? Is that a business proposition on their part? What other busi- ness wants its taxes increased? Not one on earth. Does the C. P. A. propose this “increase of revenue” as a donation to the public? believe it. The C. P. A. offers this bribe to the public for good reason. For the same reason that Collis P. is said to be 50 benevolent at times when the interests | of his octopus are endangered. And the same reason that the infamous Louisiana lottery offered mitlions of money right and left to any Government that would tolerate its rascally existence. That reason is the traffic’s own conscious- ness of guilt—that it has forfeited all right to exist, and that the American people is awak- ening to the terrible character of this most ¥ Ball Luilciaz at Alameda, in Which the Library Comvention Is to | deadly enemy that is surely enslaving and Bo Held. destroying the commonwealth.

Delecates from all the cities in the central portion of the State are to be pres- ent, and it is expected that the large Coun- cil hall of the new municipal buiiding will be thronged. Four addresses are to be delivered by Alameda men. The subject is, “*Pulpit, Press and Public Library as Means of In- fluencing Public Opinion and Elevating Humanity.”” The speakersare Rev. George R.

Why does he want to sound a retreat from | politics? Because as all politicians know, and the public is beginning to know, the liquor traffic is the most notorious and in- famous corrapter of politics ever known. In Mr. E.'s reply he says: “The subject-mat- ter of his communication is the old threadbare sermon which has been preached and sung by the Prohibitionists for a century.” Yes, call it two centuries, as seen by the following from Sir Matthew Hale, Chief Justice of England in 1670: “The places of judicature I have long held in this Kingdom have given me an opportu- nity toobserve the original cause of most of Not one of your readers is foolish enough to | the enormities that have been committed for the space of nearly twenty years; and, by due observation I have found that if the murders and manslaughters, the burglaries and rob- beries, the riots and tumults, the adul teries, fornications, rapes and other enormities that have happened in that time were divided into five parts, four of them have been the issues and product of excessive drinking.” Such being the case we can hardly suppose that the Chief Justice of England was in favor Of Mr. E.’s traffic, but was heartily opposed to it and would prohibit it if he could. Hisex- perience and observation are the same as those of other Judges all along down to our time, as I showed in my quotation from our Supreme Court in the former letter. Archbishop Ireland is & prominent and highly honored instructor of morals and relig- ion. He also has had a wide observation of the liquor traffic and has the “moral courage” and “mentality” to freely express his opinions regarding it. 1 numbly hope they will prove interesting and instructive to the C. P. A. He says: ““There is a class of men rebellious to all law, glorying in their rebellion, defying the people to curd their power—the saloon-keepers. And this shameless rebellion against law is in or- der to flood the land more freely with alcohol to make drunkards, ruin families, fill jails and poorhouses. The organ of the liquor-dealers pointedly asked the other day why temper- ance speakers attacked .men who are doing business just as others in the grocery or the clothing business. The reasons are very plain. No other business entails woe and sin as the liquor trade and no other business is lawless in its methods and defiant before the country GRAND DEGREE OF HONOR Annual Session of the Order in B'nai Brith Hall Yes- terday.

This is a social organization largely, though members have the privilege of insuring to the extent of $1000. There are at present only forty-seven beneficiary Mrs. Esther A. Lovejoy, Grand Chief of Honor of the Degree of Honor of California as the liquor traffic. And to secure immunity in their lawlessness and prevent the enactment of new laws and a wish on the part of the country to enforce any, the saloon-keepers and their leaders are at work to control the politics of the Republic. The charge needs no proof; but the people need to be awakened to the meaning of the fact.” Archbishop Ireland well voices the senti- ments of all our educators, both in our schools and churches and homes. The saloons are the dread and the destroyer of them all, as well as of everything eise that is of value in life. Mr. E. & Co. offer to increase their bribe of “li- cense revenue” two or three million dollars for the privilege of fastening more securely these parasites on the people. Yours respect- fully, 0. G.

Cooper Church has been | received into full fellowship by San Fran- | cisco congregationalism. The public is familiar with the story of the remarkable growth of the Christian | work begun at Sunset Heights, Ninth avenue and H street, three months ago by Mr. and Mrs. R, A. Tuttle. The Sunday- school and Christian Endeavor Society have become strong factors and yesterday afternoon the fi nal step was taken in the organization of the church. A remark- able fact in connection with that organi- zation is that twenty-seven of the twenty- eicht members united on coniession of fai th. The attractive hall at Ninth avenue and H street, which has been the scene of the initial efforts of what promises to be an unusually strong and united movement, was crowded yesterday with members of the council and friends of the new church. Plymouth Church was represented by Dr. W. D. Wiiliams and Judge E. D. Saw- yer, Olivet by Dr. J. A. Cruzan and Miss Mackie, Richmond by Rev. Philip Coombe, Park by Rev. J. B. Orrand Miss Deering, Bethlehem by Rev. W. H. Tubb, First by Dr. C. 0. Brown and I. H. Morse, Third by Rev. William R. Rader and C. H. Hamm, Fourth by Rev. F. W. Flawith and W. 8. Dibble, Eighth by Rev. Mr. Galloway, Swedish by Rev. Mr. Anderson. Rev. Loyal L. Wirt of the Sunday-school Publication Company and Sidney Yarrow, the student of the Pacitic Theological Seminary who has been acting pastor ot the church; Mr, and Mrs. Tuttle, Mrs. and Miss Cooper, Mr. and Mrs. George T. Gaden, Mrs, E. D. Sawyer, Mrs. W.D. Williams, Meyer Strauss and others were present, besides the local friends and members, prominent among whom were Mr. and Mrs. Edward Ewald and their daughters. Dr. Williams was elected moderator and Rey. Philip Coombe clerk. The letters-missive were read by Dr. Williame and Loyal L. Wirt reviewed the brief history of .the movement. Mrs. Cooper, Mr. Gaden, Mr. Wirt and others gave addresses commendatory of the movement, the lady in whose honor the church is named laying stress upon her belief that all organizations whose vital principle is the divine spirit wouald live and flourish, The council withdrew for an executive session, when it adopted a resolution stating that the proceedings thus far were satisfactory. A commitiee, consisting of Rev. William Rader, Judge E. D. Sawyer and Rev. Loyal L. Wirt, was appointed to examine the candidates and pass upon their fitness for church membership. The committee announced that all the candidates were prepared for their duties as members. Mrs. Sarah B. Cooper gave an eloquent address on the spirituai sig- nificance of such a step, the council re- vmted recognition of the church, Rev. W. H. Tubb gave a scriptural reading which he followed with prayer, Rev. Wil- liam R. Rader read the articles of faith, Dr. W. D. Williams administered the covenant, Dr. C. O. Brown gave an ad- dress to the church, Rev. J. B. Orr ex- tended the hand of fellowship and Rev. Philip Coombe led in the consecration prayer. The election of a delegate to the Bay Conference was postponed till Sunday. members in the State, but a stronger in- terest in the beneficiary degree is being aroused, and the members expect that ere long a majority of those belonging to the order will take out insurance pol:cies. The day was taken up with the reports of officers and members. The officers’ and committees’ reports were all written, but the majority of the others were delivered verbally. Asin the Workmen lodge, there has been a slight decrease in membership during the past vear, but the ladies are confident that the causes which led to this have been removed, and are sanguine of great advancement for the future. The grand chief of honor, Mrs. Esther A. Lovejoy, prefaced her report with the following remarks: In the revolving vears the day has again ar- rived for tie annual communion of our Grand Lodge, and 1 am pleased to greet you at its fourth occurrence to measure the progress of the past vear and to deliberate upon the pres- ent condition and needs of our jurisdiction. In performing this duty I but continue the les- teacher whom I have succeeded. While our membership has somewhat decreased during the year about to close, I feel confident that, it more of the brethren of the parent order will interest themselves in this branch of the order, the coming year will see a marked increase. Brethren, do not forget that in helping us you help yourselves. In regard to_the beneficiary department of the order I will state that we are doing very well, and we must devise some way to encour- age this very important feature. I trust that this Grand Lodge wiil carefully consider this very important proposition. Itis the founda- tion of the A. 0. U.W., and why should it not be of ours ? The body of the report shows that the resignations have been two; that three lodges have been organized; that six have surrendered charters; that the grand mas- ter workman Lad been appointed adviser, and that committees on laws, finance and circulars had been appointed as well as twenty-three district deputies. The report of Mrs. F. 8. Toland, tne grand recorder, shows that the members enrolled January 1, 1895, were 1010, but that on January 1, 1896, the books showed just 827 members, a decrease of 183 for the year. The report further made known that the number initiated had been 209, admitted by card 7, suspended 190, rein- stated 28, expelled 0, withdrawn 45, and that the number of deaths had been 8. The grand receiver’s report was devoted solely ‘to financial mutters. The vearly receipts were $2262 10 and the disburse- ments $1068 57, leaving a balance of $1193 53 on hand Janmuary 1, 1896. The re- port of the finance committee tallied with that of the grand receiver. The initiatory work was exemplified for the benefit of the delegates by Silver Spray Lodge No. 3 of this City in a very credit- able manner, and was warmly appreciated by the visitors. In the evening the visilory were enter- tained at Laurel Hall by the City lodges, and a very pleasant evening was spent. There were speeches, music and other light forms of entertainment in plenty, and the guests departed well pleased at the effort made to make their visit agreeable and in- structive. To-morrow morning will occur the an- nual election of officers and of delegates to the Superior Lodge, which meets at Buf- falo in June. In the afternoon the newly elected offi- cers will be installed, and all unfinished business will be cleaned up preparatory to adjournment till next year. AHURAAH WITH BUCKLEY His Followers Caucus in Large Numbers and Drink Real Punch. - The Mistake of Joseph P. Kelly. Raisey Lands Anoiher Con- vert in the Mint. The Buckleyites bad a fine hurrah at the Occidental Club last evening. Christopher A. Buckley, several of *‘Buck’s business men,” many of the lambs and a number of the captains of the “push” were there. There were about 150 of them, and they met in the parlor, too. Dr. James I. Stanton came in late, and so received Lis usual cheering, for the Buckleyites love the doctor. Sam New- man and Coadjutor James H. O’Brien sat next to the King. Joseph Rothschild was sons of the past and follow the example.of the | on hand, and so were ex-Senator Dono- van, “Trilby”” M. M. Foote, Secretary D. M. Gavigan and other shining leaders. It was a conference of the leading Buck- leyites of all the districts preparatory to the vigorous ante-State convention cam- paign about to be opened. It was agreed that a meeting of the general committee should be held next week at Odd Fellows’ Hall, at which various small changes 1n the arrangements for the primary election should be made. It was also decided to begin that series of district mass-meetings within a few days. Speeches full’ of wisdom, “true ring” Jeff‘:!rwnian Democracy and trust that a beneficent providence has chosen the Buckleyites for its own were made by Messrs. Newman, Stanton, Donovan et. al. M. M. Foote again stormed the very gates of hell with his tiery eloquence, and all around, the gladdening speeches showed that if anybody thinks the Buck- ley faction has left the political ring his impressions are about to be corrected. The star speech of the evening was made by James H. O’Brien, who an- nounced that a feed was secreted behind a set of folding doors. The doors were rolled back by Eercy Dana and Sam Sam- ple was revealed smiling on the other side of the cold ham, the dainty sandwiches, the cabbage salad, the red radishes and the pickies. The advance guard formed around a corner of big bowls of red and vellow punch, jeweled with lemon slices, and one of the most delightful social E{fairs of the season was at once in full ast. campaign for the Democratic nomination for Congress in the Fifth District. There ness in his hand nowadays. All that Kelly wents is that Loud be nominated by the Republicans and that he be given a chance to beat him. Kelly is with the Buckley deiegation will nominate Congressmen at Sacramento June 16. Tunere was some talk that his old Democratic_rival, James Denman, would again look for that Con- gressional nomination, but it is said now him Mayor. Kelly didn’t know last night that he had made any mistak him the quiet warning between drinks, ‘‘Say, Joe, the boys are sizing up those tips,” referring to the rich velvet cuffs and collar that adorned his overcoat. Keliy will tone himself down to-day. The McNao-Sullivan people conldn’t be- lieve yesterday that John H. Wise had gone into a deal with the Daggett-Rainey people, and they shouted more loudly than ever that Rainey’ the Junta organization. The Rainey-Daggett people grow strong- erday by day. Yesterday Samuel Hayes, an influential member of the general com- was given a job in the mint. Hayes means a few more votes against the “‘inside’’; the Raineyites are sure of winning the organi- zation. ——————— DARTMOUTH COLLEGE DINNER.

The Lists Will Be Handed in To- Night by the Committeemen Themselves. The Republican County Committee held a harmonious meeting in Scottish Hall last night, the purpose being to prepare for the primaries. Chairman Charles Manwaring requested the members from the Fourth District to hand 1n the names of their appointees as election officers to the chairman of that district, the members from the Fifth to hand in the same to the chairman of the | Fifth. He announced that the time for holding the primaries had been fixed at1 P. M. 107 P. M. Jesse Marks desired to be informed whether the rights of the committeemen in selecting the election officers would be respected by the committee. Mr. Watt and Mr. Thompson wanted the County committeemen from the Fourth and Fifth districts to meet in separate district committees to receive the names of the appointees for officers for the pri- mary election. Chairman Manwaring explained that | the names which each committesman was to hand to the chairman of his district would be accepted. | This gave general satisfaction, and the | meeting resoived isself into two conven- tions. That from the Fourth Congres- sional District decided/ to meet this even- ing at 8 o'clock at 850 Market street for the purpose of receiving the names of election officers. In the meeting of the Fifth Congres- sional District, Committeeman Berliner | asked whether every County commiitee- man would not be allowed to name his officers and John M. Chretien in the chair explained that it was simply a matter of general courtesy to have a talk about the names in the committee of the whole. For ‘inilance. if some committeeman, in a | moment of thoughtlessness, recommended | a Democrat. the mistake could be discov- | ered and rectified by the member submit- ting some other name instead. It was agreed tbat each member should hand in his list to-night at 8 o’clock to hairman Chretien or Secretary Walsh a$ | 850 Market street, together with the pre- | cinct boundaries and all other pertinent information. Committeemen Houston, Bacigalupi and Browning were appointed a commitiee on | printing. On motion of Houston, seconded by Pen- | dergast and Berliner, the committeemen were authorized to fill any vacancies on the tickets that might occur prior to the election. | The meeting then adjourned.
