Tlint Free Reading Room.
To tiik Euitok:
In connreiiou with the proposition to es
tablish und maintain a free rending room in
our town the "Methodist Episcopal church
has boon frequently mentioned. Men outside
of our councils seem to know more about
our decisions than those who are charged
willi the direction of ull'uirs. Between a
dressing down' in a public meeting and a
certain correspondence in your paper we
a iv being somewhat maligned, I readily
concede that the whole thing only illustrates
lite saying of a celebrated writer 'that "while
tlie understanding is powerful, the misun
derstanding is more powerful." IK- vonr
permission 1 rise to announce that no action
to rent the old church for a reading room
bus been taken by our official board, nor
have we had the matter before us except in
tlie most informal manner, unauthorized
statements to thecontrary, notwithstanding
1 endorse tlie reading mom position '
and stand ready to help it, It willdo some
good. But I must add that itscllects on
private virtue and public morality 'can
hardly be expected to I'ullil the prediction of
one ot your correspondents; and to make
it a ruler for irrelevant and absurd reworks
on the benevolent work of the church, and
. , """"sonne christian ministry,
ts cause for profound regret. Every man i,
entitled to his opinimts, however radical;
but make a ree bbrary plea the occasion
' thctr venttlohon is to to say the least
not good taste. Yours truly.
