The experiment of admitting students of the public and private schools of the city at a rate of $1 per year subscription fee, which was inaugurated during the year 1866, has met the expectations of rour board of directors, and is fully justi fied by the result." At the close of the year there were: Student subscribers ....,...., 413 Regular subscribers 467 Perpetual members 101 Honorary members 65 Total membership .'. 1046 The receipts from dues for the year have been 584 1L as against $2551 86 for the year 1808. $2816 16 for the year 1897, and $20S7 16 for the year MM.

Income of Book Fnnd. The balance of this fund, on December SI 1898, was $786 58. Receipts from all sources were $1746 40. There was dis bursed during the year for books, period icals and binding $2188 1L leaving on hand December SI, 1890. $873 82. The report of the librarian submitted to the board of directors shows, in detail, classification of books and periodicals pur chased, and books loaned during the year. Book Fund. The principal of the book fund at the close of the year was $25,250, invested as follows: Loaned on mortgage $17,000 Loaned to building fund 8,250 Total $25,250 Maintenance Fnnd. The principal of the maintenance fund is meo, $,O00 of which Is invested in note and mortgage, and $40,000 is loaned to the building fund. Indebtedness. The indebtedness of the association at the beginning of the year was $75,040 66. At the dose -of the year it was, including $48 960 due maintenance and book funds, $75 610 82, as follows: Due on Mils payable, principal... .$22,500 00 Accrued Interest . 1,800 00 Due maintenance fund 40,000 00 Due book fund 8,250 00 Due on overdraft 3,060 82 Total $75,610 82 Blla M. Smith Bequest. The death of the surviving executor of the will of the late Ella M. Smith made the appointment of an administrator nec essary, and, at the request of your board oi directors, Mr. Milton w. Smith, gen erously accepting the trust in the interest of the, association, was appointed admin istrator with will annexed. The residue of the estate, the entire proceeds of which are by the terms of the will devised to the association, is as fol lows: South half of lot 4. in block 1; east 94 feet of the south 80 feet of lot 3, and the east HVe feet of the north 10 feet of lot 4, in block 16. and lots 7 and 8, in block 25, all in the city of Portland, county of Mult nomah, and state of Oregon. As appears by the report of the treas urer, the net income from this property for the last year was $1600. The value of this bequest, being the resi due ot the estate, may be considered an offset pro tanto against the present in debtedness of the association. Depreciation in the value of the real property, the proceeds of which were be queathed to the association. Is so great as to make it apparent that an Indebtedness of considerable magnitude will remain after the proceeds of the sale of this prop erty has been applied upon present out standing obligations. I trust that during the year the friends of the library may see the way clear to contribute funds suf ficient to at least reduce the present in debtedness to an amount not greater than the market value f the real property held for the association. Henry Falling: Bequest. By the will of the late Henry Falling there was bequeathed to the association the sum of $11,009 "In trust that the same will be kept invested and managed as a perpetual and irreducible fund, and that the net income, interest und profit arising therefrom will be expended from time to time as may be thought best In the pur chase of reading matter, apparatus and works of art for the use and benefit of the Library Association, and not other wise " The full amount of this bequest has been received by the treasurer of the associa tion, and by him placed in a separate fund to be known as the "Henry Failing be quest." The association is under obligations to the executors of Mr. Failing's will and the devisees of his estate for the payment b them of the legacy tax due upon this bequest, amounting to $1260, a. gift valu able beyond the amount Involved, as it eMdenees the fact that the interest our late president had in the association is perpetuated by his family. The association has also received from the daughters of Mr. Failing a gift of the oil portrait of our late president, by J. C Peebles, which now adorns the direc tors" room of the Library building. Donations. With the exception of the Henry Falling bequest, before referred to, the associa tion during the year received no dona tions In money. It is, however, under ob ligations to numerous friends of the asso ciation for valuable books and periodicals, a list of which Is attached to the report of the librarian. librarian and Assistants.

The publishers of the Pacific Northwest have generously sent in, free of charge, 81 files of newspa pers and magazines for 1899, and we have also received 26 monthly and quarterly library bulletins, which will be found In appendix B, under the head of "Donors and Donations." There were 2411 magazines circulated as books in 1S99, 2206 in 1898, and 1643 in 1897. The library is in great need of a com plete file of periodicals listed In the "cumulative" and "Poole's" Indexes from 1892 to date. Hardly a day passes with out the necessity of these missing( num bers being brought to mind by students, members of reading clubs, and others. Gifts. A list of donors and donations will be found appended to this report. "We re ceived 161 volumes, 506 pamphlets and 543 Issues of periodicals. H. L. Pittock, of this city, has generously continued send ing the bound volumes of The Oregonlan, in addition to printing the lists of new books free of charge. Membership. There has been a slfght falling off in the regular membership for the past year, but it Is still In excess of any year ex cept 1898. There were In addition to these regular subscribers, 295 new subscriptions and 50 renewals from students. Below is a table showing the average number of subscriptions during each of the past six years. These figures do not include etudent members.

There is a little more than 4 ner cent -increase in the percentage of fiction and juvenile books circulated, as compared with lS9S,but this showing is favorable, as statistics of libraries will" show. ' There were 1037 volumes In circulation at the, end of the year, of which 733, or 70 per cent, were fiction. The dally circula tion .ranged from 95 to 347, and averaged 188. Attendance. The total attendance for 1899 Is 76,144, an Increase of 17,080, or 2 per cent. This in crease is largely due to the students, who at times fill the alcoves and reading-rooms to their utmost capacity: Dally attendance. O oS am Co t r MONTHS. t January" .. February ". March ....

During the year the juvenile and fine arts departments were catalogued, and the Oregon section and the department of literature revised under subject head ings. Progress, is necessarily slow in this work, with tho present force, as so much time has to be given to reference work and the repairing of books. Student-Member. It is now 15 months since students were admitted under special rates and regula tions. Jn that period 520 have subscribed, and there has been every opportunity to judge of the wisdom of the plan. "With ajvery few exceptions, the pupils have seemed to appreciate the benefits offered. 'and as yet there has been no necessity ot.entorcmg .restrictive regulations.. Much is due the teachers and instructors of PortlMMBPnelr hearty support of the movemenWuid for their .assistance in making up reading lists from the library shelves, and thus relieving the assistants from some of the added work. The effect on the minds and tastes of the young readers cannot be other than salutary, and It is now considered a. part of the work of the principal libraries to specially provide for the children and pupils of the scnoais. T Funds. A detailed statement of receipts and ex penditures follows this Teport, and it will be seen that the expenses were slightly In excess of 1898, and the receipts from dues and fines were th elargest since 1S84, when the subscription rate? were nearly double those of today. In closing, I wish to thank the library committee for their valuable time given the library, ancTIoc the broad and catholic spirit shown in Its behalf. The press of the city has been even more than usually generous the past yeaf, and has proven Us friendship. in an un mistakable manner. The Instructors and teachers referred to previously we most heartily thank for their untiring work in co-operation. ,, To our assistants special thanks are due, not only for the interest shown in carrying forward the higher work of the library and fully appreciating Its great mission, but for the tact and forbearance manifested in filling that most trying of positions that of assistant librarian.

P. LEACH, Librarian. COLONEL STONE COMING. President of National Lengrne "Will Attend State ieasne. PORTLAND, FebTX-(To the Editor.) One of the features of the biennial meet ing of the Republican League of Oregon, wfilch will assemble In Portland Tuesday next, will be the presence of Colonel George Stone, president of the National Republican league. This will be the first time the state league has been hon ored in this manner by the national league, and the welcome accorded to Colonel Stone by the state league should be fuch as to give hdm a favorable Im pression of the republicans- of Oregon. The fact that the Republican League of Oregon, at Its last biennial meeting, was the first convention of republicans to de clare squarely for the gold standard, has brought the republican party In Oregon Into such favorably notice that the Na tional Republican League recognizes the fitness of honoring the state league by sending its friendly greetings by its president, and the honor should be duly appreciated Oregon will be the first state to be heard from In the campaign of 1900, and it Is quite important that the republican vic tory be so great and complete that Ore gon's victory may become the slogan In the national campaign. While the repub lican league of the state does not make the party platform, yet It is the first con vention of the campaign, and it is ther.e that representative republicans from all parts of the state meet and discuss plans and policies for the advancement and success of the party, and at the state convention these sentiments and policies are crystallized Into a party platform upon which the battles of the campaign are fought. Hence the importance of a large attendance and general interest in the state league. M. to ENLARGING A CHURCH. Improvement to the Unitarian House of Worship. Improvements to the Unitarian church building, that will cost in the aggregate $2500, have been commenced. Four new rooms will be added by means of extend ing and erecting another story over the southwest cornerwf the present structure. The principal object sought is increased space for the free reading-room, now oc cupying the two apartments that were formerly used as a parlor and committee rooms. But little of the open space on the west side of the church Is used in the Improvement. The addition extends north along this side to the western win dow, "without obstructing It in any man ner. The whole will be raised to two stories, the upper portion being dlvldea Into a small and a large apartment. The latter will be the reading.room, while the smaller room will be utilized for various purposes. The two lower apartments will revert to their former use In connection with church work. v The improvement Is the work of a be nevolent member of the church, whose name, through a sense of modesty, Is withheld from the public. The conveni ence to both the church and the reading room of the added space will be marked. Space will be found for the pastor's study also In a quiet portion of the addition. The roof of the church building will be made much more sightly by elevating the western side that now slopes from a con siderable height to near the ground. Con tractors have already commenced work, which will be pushed to completion as rapidly as possible. i ADVISES INCORPORATION. Correspondent Tells How to Secure a $500,000 Woolen MIJL PORTLAND, Feb. 3. (To the Editors Portland needs more manufactories. She can have -whatever, she requires If she is so minded. A united people can build up an immense city, while a divided populace1 can handicap the Almighty's most lavish provisions of natural resources. Every man in a community is personally respon sible for its prosperity. How can we secure a $500,000 woolen mill? This is of easy solution. Incorpo rate the company. Let Mr. Dalgleish, who Is thoroughly conversant with th business, agree to manage the" enterprise for a few years. Let him and other lead ing men put down liberal subscriptions of stock. Then give the people an opporv tunity to take stock. Make it a popu lar, people's enterprise and secure sub scriptions of from $50 to $50,000 until the entire sum of $500,000 Is raised. "With such a capital, after the first year a 23 per cent dividend can be declared to stockholders. Such an enterprise would be worth to the city $10,000,000. The writer has investigated this matter quite fully and feels certain of what he states There is no law to hang selfish barnacles of society, but there should be. The writer is not a capitalist? but will take some stock, and feels that most every man and woman In Portland who can will1 be glad to do likewise. WALLACE. 1 i Hot to Be Buncoed. Chicago News.'

ESs Recovery Is" Doubtful Lincoln Memorial Observance' Other News of the East- Side John Idatthews, an 8-year-old boy who lives on Ellsworth, between East Fif teenth and East Sixteenth streets, fell on the Southern Pacific railway at the intersection of East Eleventh and Clinton streets, in front of the 5 o'clock freight train yesterday, and both legs were sev ered from his body. It is not known exactly how the accident happened. There was another boy with: him at the time. who fainted when his comrade went under the train. It seems that he undertook to cross the track in front of the train and was caught Another tory Is that he tried to get on the train, but failed. The for mer account s probably correct. He was removed to the home of Councilman Cam eron, on Clinton street, when Drs. Hill and Moore were called. They bandaged his legs the best they could, apd he was taken to the Good Samaritan hospital. His recovery is regarded as very doubt ful. Lincoln Memorial. "W. R. Insfley, president of the Sunny side Methodist church Epworth League, said last night, thai the decorating of the churchf'for the occasion of the Lincoln memorial Monday, February 12, will com mence this morning, and wlU be of artist ic and elaborate design. C. A. "Walker, a member of the church, has drawn up the plan, and it will be carried out.. It In volves the construction of magnificent arches over the altar platform, the whole surmounted with a star twinkling with Innumerable electric lights,, representing the states in the Union. As the church is small, In order to enlarge the seating capacity of "the auditorium, a temporary gallery will be. built in the rear of the church for the accommodation of the band and about 40 people. It is hoped with the gallery and extra chairs to pro vide room for 600 people. The programme hds been practically completed, and will be printed this week. It Includes ad dresses by Governor Geer, Judge M. C. George, Judge A. H. Tanner and others. The Mount Tabor band will also be pres ent, and there will be other music A number of prominent citizens have been specially Invited. Robbers Raided Mll-vrankle.

Three men well known in Oregon po litical circles were seated at a table 'in the olce ot the Imperial hotel yesterday. They were C. M. Donaldson, of Baker, who ilan for congress on the fusion ticket in this district two years ago; John C. Toun. who was chairman of the popu list state central committee four years aso, dnd W. S. XJ'Ren, elected in 189C senatofc- from Clackamas county, and lead er ot the populist force in the hola-up legislature. So far as outsiders knew, the three gen tlemenj were not endeavoring to formulate a. uu.31 upyn which democrats ana popu lists mugm maKe a stana against ine re publicans this year, and the general trend of their remarks seemed to favor holding off to stee what the republicans are going to do. Anti-expansion and free silver seemed to be two planks which rolzht be used in building the platform this time, but as to all else the trio were absolutely at sea. Ih. fact, the opinion prevailed among them that a republican legislature would elect a gold-standard republican as United Strttes senator next winter, and in the meantime opponents of republicanism must bldp their time and make a show of fight by picking flaws in whatever principles the republican party might de clare as uaraxdount. As to the oresent conduct of the Ore gon state administration, the gentlemen "were singMlarly silent, and if they have any fault to find with the manner in which the state is now being run, they neglected to express it. In regard to our national policy, Mr. Young said to TTRea: "You fellows were opposed to me when I deprecated going to war with Spain over the Cuban question. Now see what you have bitten off." a B HOTEL ARRIVALS. THE.PORTLAXD. P S Bailey, CharopaisajJ T Bridges. Rssebunr P T Walker, do a H Mltehell. city J W SUpeot do Mr and Mrs Leo Peter Thoa Boyle.
