Do the Citizens Want Such an
Institution
ADDRESS BY LIBRARY BOARD
Hoiiici Itrnixiiift Ulvm Why Norfolk Should
llutft Sueli h 1lnco of Intrrtnliiiurnt
Wo ii 111 lm n Ormt Alii to the Work r
Uhurchrti nnd Schools
At n meeting of the board of directors
of the Norfolk free publio library hold
lit the directors room of tho Citizens
Nntioutil bank September 1 for the pur
pose of discussing n plan for tho perma
nent establishment nnd location of tho
library tho following points were con
sidered
First Is it desirable at a cost of
about 250 to repair tho old Catholic
church building now tho property of
tho Library association and allow it to
continue on its present sito until May
1H02
Second Is it desirable at a cost of
nbout 1000 to remove tho church
building repair the same and secure n
permanent location
Third Is it desirable to sell tho old
church building and abandon tho pro
ject of a free public library for Norfolk
Against tho second half of tho third
point viz Allow tho project for a
frco public library for Norfolk to fall
through the committee was unani
mous
It appeals to the reason and good
judgment of all our citizens that our
city should have such an institution as a
free library and reading room
The citizens of Norfolk aro an intelli
gent moral and law abiding people
They arc a people who have at heart the
moral and social welfare of our city and
n sacred affection for tho virtue of their
liresides They aro a thinking people
quick to act when convinced of tho
proper course to pursue
Notwithstanding these qualities of our
people as a whole many things havo
occurred within the recent past to arrest
the attention of parents and friends con
cerning the welfaro of sons and daugh
ters
Oar city is well provided with a sys
tem of schools kept open nine mouths
in the year five days in the week from
a m until 4 p m at an expense of
about 10000 or 17000 with churches
opened little more than one day in tho
week for a few hours at most at an ex
pense of over 1000M
These are splendid agencies for good
when their doors aro open but when
their doors are closed other agencies
allure tho young and unwary to their
destruction
The purpose of thepublic library is to
offer to our boys and girls meii and
women a place where they may secure
good books to read meet with good
company strengthen their habits for
good in a wholesome atmosphere
awaken and ennoble their ambition and
fit them not only to eujoy but to pro
mote the better purposes of life
If the public library can assist in this
good work should citizens hesitate in
securing its cooperation Can it be
said of Norfolk that it can contribute
over 80000 a year for church and
schcol but not one thousand for a free
public library whose welcome doors
swing in not one day in the week but
every week day in the year over whoso
portals may be inscribed the legend
Within may be found a remedy for the
diseases of the soul
It is safe to say that while very many
of the smaller towns of tho state havo
their public libraries no other city in
tho state of Norfolks population is with
out it
This fact in itself is no ground or
argument for Norfolks having a library
but proves that other places havo dis
covered the necessity for a library and
have taken steps to secure it
This appeal is made in the interest of
tho youug men and women the homes
and firesides of Norfolk Alike to the
citizens whose homes are already pro
vided with good books and magazines
as well aB to those whose homes are
straugers to the same Boys and girls
coming from well provided houies meet
on the streets boys and girls who are
not so well provided the latters in
fluence frequently dominates the former
This intlueuce may be in largo measure
counteracted by providing all with tho
means of good reading This appeal is
made to all our citizens and an expres
sion of publio opinion is most earnestly
invited through the press on tho three
points above mentioned
By order of library board

WATERLESS WEST TO BE RECLAIMED
BY IRRIGATION

Senator Warren before leaving
Washington for his homo tu Wyoming
speaking of tho work of thu national
Republican convention said
The platform adopted by the con
vention conveys to the people of mv
state and of every western state and
territory the most hopeful tidings glv
en them for many years They are In
thu declaration that In further pur
suance of the constant policy of the
Republican party to provide- free
homes on the public domain we rec
ommend adequate national legislation
to reclaim the arid lands of the United
States reserving control of the dis
tribution of water for Irrigation to the
respective states nnd territories
The fact that tho Republican party
puts no Idle words In its platforms
and redeems every promise It makes
to the fullest degree Is appreciated lu
the west and with the positive declara
tion that thu party Is committed to
Tcelanmtlon of thu arid lauds of thu
country all doubts that this will bo
done and done speedily are removed
Had I had such a declaration to back
mo up at tho closu of thu Fifty fifth
congress when we attempted to se
cure an appropriation for tho building
of storage reservoirs In the west sue
cess would linvu been assured With
such a declaration now as n plank In
thu platform of thu Republican party
success Is In sight and 1 confidently
believe that before the Fifty fifth con
gress closes It will provide means for
the Inauguration of n system of rec
lamation of our arid lands which will
do as much for the waterless west as
the adoption of tho homestead law did
for the middle west country
Tho Republican party hns already
taken the preliminary steps In the
work of reclaiming the arid lands of
the west and what It has donu Is of
such practical nature that u substan
tial foundation is already establish
ed upon which tho work of reclama
tion can be continued and bo made of
lasting material benefit to the east
The first definite action taken toward
reclamation of arid lands by thu gov
ernment was secured by the Repub
lican party in 1810 when by the pro
visions of tho river and harbor act
under a section which I had tho honor
to present an appropriation of r000
was made for the examination of
sites and a report upon the practi
cability and desirability of con
structing reservoirs and hydraulic
works necessary for the storage
and utilization of water to prevent
Hoods and overflows erosion of river
banks nnd breaks of levees and to
re enforce the flow of streams during
drought and low water seasons at
least one situ each in thu states of
Wyoming and Colorado
The moat practical step In the di
rection of arid land reclamation was
taken In the Fifty fifth congress when
by provisions of the agricultural ap
propriation bill appropriations of
10000 and SMOOO were provided to
make a series of Investigations by ex
perts In practical Irrigation These
investigations were placed In chargti
of Professor Klwood Mead of Wyo
ming recognized as the leading author
ity on Irrigation problems In America
Tho present congress has Increased
tho amount for this years Investiga
tions under Professor Mend to 50000
and the scope of his work has been
enlarged to cover many new Irriga
tion experiments and problems
In addition to these Investigations
congress has encouraged nnd sustain
ed by liberal appropriation the work
of stream measurements nnd Invest
tlon of water resources of tho country
conducted by tho United States geo
logical survey and tho amount appro
priated by the congress just closed
for this work was 100000 an in
crease of 5O000 over that of last yenr
The Republican party as I have
said never makes a promise It does not
fulfill and 1 confidently anticipate that
at a very early day the practical work
of Irrigation Investigation under Pro
fessor Mead tho collection of data of
water resources by the geological sur
vey ami the location and survey of
storage reservoir sites In Wyoming and
Colorado by Captain Chittenden will
bo followed by the erection by tho
government on the headwaters of our
principal western rivers of reservoirs
which will serve to reclaim millions of
acres of land now arid and useless and
transform them Into productive farms
The Increase In value of land as soon
as It Is reclaimed and Is insured a per
manent water supply is enormous
and with the waters of our western
rivers now running w waste fully util
ized the growth that will come to the
west will be almost beyond compre
hension
Surplus of Ilecelpt
The surplus of receipts over expendi
tures for the current fiscal year just
ended amounted to 81229770 This
was almost twice the estimate made by
Secretary Gage last November- Re
ceipts since then from both customs
and Internal revenue have been good
and expenditures have been falling off
The total leceipts for Uio fiscal year
Just euded were r004 17347 and total
expenditures 487803109
