InforuiH mo Hint tho ordinance, hero

Tho market linn been a tomenleuce to
our people nnil to the people of tho
HUrrouudlng country and Iiiih enabled

Public Library
The prnvfalona mndo by thn council
for tho support of the public llbrnry
have boon meagro enough, nnd, If
It woro ponxlblo to do to. there nliould
be better provision made In tho fu
ture. However, under the cry for
erouomy, In tin1 administration of tho
city's affairs, It would hardly seem
poxHlble, nt thfa time, to recommend
Hint any further allots mice bu made
for this purpono.

Ah Hie most of the Improvement of
the city havo boon made, thero ro
