Bertram, under date of February 13, writes Mayor Smith of this city that Grants Pass can now obtain $12,500 of the Carnegie fund for the con struction of a library building if the municipality will provide the site and the maintenance fund. There are no restrictions upon the location of the site, but the council must, by resolution, agree to maintain the li brary ut a cost of not less than $1, 250 per annum, the use of the li brary to be free to the public. The $12,500 is to cover the cost of the building ready for occupancy. The Carnegie company, however, wants the plan or sketch of the pro posed building referred to it for ap proval before any expense Is In curred. Following this, and the ac tion of the city in agreeing to pro vide a site and support the library, the funds will be placed at the dis position of the city. Vote of the people would be neces sary before the providing of the fund for maintenance of the library and the acceptance of the gift could be accomplished by the city. The city has previously voted upon this question, but It is claimed that there is now a stronger sentiment In favor of the library, and the council will probably be asked to again submit the question to vote. $1,000,000 P0ST0FFICE VOTED FOR PORTLAND WASHINGTON', Feb. 27.
