Alilcrniau Walker moved that the appro pnaliou for the library be increased to the amount asked for by the trustees. Alderman Alger thought the board were doing just what they did not intend to do, that is deprive the people of the services ot ttic etllcient assistant librarian. Aider man noiton lliougtit that their action In reducing the appropriation would bo ap. plaudeu by uine-tcntlis of the citizens of Uurlingtou.
