THE PUBLIC LIBRARY.

After the voters have passed on
the subject, the question has been
raised whether the city should erect
a library building. It has been
raised too late. When the rate-
payers voted on the bylaw for the
issue of $25,000 debentures, they
voted on the question of the erec-
tion of a library. Their answer to
the question was ‘‘Yes,” and that
ought to settle it.

It has been proposed to dispense
with the library annex to the fire
hall and provide quarters for a li-
brary on the second story of the
latter building. This would not
only be an evasion of the intention
at the electors, but would be bad
policy. The fire department should
be in a building by itself, used by it
exclusively. People running up and
down to a public library and read-
ing room on the second floor of the
fire ‘hall would. not only disturb
those firemen who have to sleep in
the daytime, but would be an ob-
struction to them in the perform-
ance of their work, when called to
afire. Even if there should be
more room in the proposed fire
hall than is at present absolutely
needed, we should remember that
we are building for the future. Ev-
ery man who has any faith in Ross-
land believes the city will grow,
and with its growth the fire depart-
ment will needincrease. It is good
economy to make provisionn ow for
such increase, and not leave future
councils to provide for it by a series
of makeshifts.

To those who question the wis-
dom of a public library, we would
say: What facilities for recreation
does the town afford? There are
the hotels, a variety theater and an
occasional entertainment in a drafty
old barn, which is called, by a
stretch of courtesy, an opera house.
This city has reached a point where
it-should p hing more

.) a corner of the fire hall.

and afford those who have the com-
mendable taste for reading an op-
portunity to gratify it. We need
not begin by buying a large num-
ber of books, but we should pro-
vide room for a library to grow
from small beginnings to respecta-
ble dimensions, not poke it away in

‘The people would like well
enough to have an ornate building
for a fire hall, but the Recorp be-
lieves it rightly gauges public opin-
ion in saying that, if the funds will
not suffice for ornament, the people
would rather have a simple building
containing ample provision for both
purposes -than a more pretentious
building suited for only one of them.

but onZaccount of the heroism of its
defenders. When the war began,
the town was over 300 miles from
the British army which was coping.
with the rebel Dutch south of the
Orange river and was 200 miles
from Kimberly, itself besieged. It
wasinthe heart of the enemy's
country, though in British territory,
for to the east. was the Transvaal
and to the north, south and west
was a country peopled by Dutch
settlers, who had taken up arms
against the empire. Mafeking was
an outpost of loyalty amid a sea of
open foes and skulking traitors.

The conditions were such that, of
allthe besieged towns, Mafeking
would be the last to secure relief.
Had any force been sent forward to
its relief before the power of the
enemy had been broken in the in-
tervening country, the relieving
force might itself have needed relief
before reaching its goal. Therefore
the town had to wait until the main
army had conquered practically the
whole ot the Free State,reconquered
the rebellious country on the west,
and broken the power of the Boers
beyond -hope of recovery. This
must necessarily take time and dur-
ing that time Colonel Baden: Powell
and his garrison must wait and fight
and stint themselves.

For this the more honor is due to
Baden-Powell and his men. With

a mere handful of regular soldi

he formed a body of civilian volun-
teers and trained them to arms.

They were hardy frontiersmen, who
knew how to shoot. They knew
the wiles-of the enemy and how to
thwart them. They had a leader of
the same type—a born leader, one
of those men who instinctively in-
spire confidence and passionate de-
votion. Their numbers were always
inferior to those of their besiegers
and they were almost devoid of ar-
tillery. The town lay in an open
plain, easy to attack, difficult to de-
tend. But by his skill and the skill
and courage of his men, the com-
mander has made it impregnable
against attack. The indomitable
pluck and ready resource with
which he met attack and conducted
sorties inspired such respect in the
enemy that their commanders to-
wards the last had difficulty in in-
ducing them to fight.

For months hunger—a more ter-
rible enemy than the Boers—has
also taken part in the siege.
Through its attacks on their bodies,
it sought to weaken their valiant
hearts, but even this most implaca-
ble of all enemies was repelled until
help came. With no better bodily
sustenance than_skilly, the garrison
only last Saturday added another
wreath to its crown of laurels by
killing, wounding and capturing a
party of the assailants headed by
the commander of the besiegers. It
was a fitting finale to such a valiant
defense.

The defense of Mafeking has done
good service in contributing to Brit-
ish success, not only by acting asa
bulwark against Boer iucursions in-
to British territory but also by in-
ducing the Boers to divert a part of
their forces to this point when they
were most needed to resist the ad-
vance of Roberts’ army. Now that
the town has been relieved and the
Boers have withdrawn within their
owge borders, it will be a splendid
