Cutlibert has a bright future be
fore her. The enterprises now on
hand, and steadily being carried
to completion, will infuse new life
into all departments of business,
and will largely affect all our ma

therefore highly important at this
time that the city have at her
head a Mayor and Council in full
sympathy with our onward move
ment—a set of men solid, trust
worthy. responsible, intelligent,

Messrs Editors:
I ask here, through the columns
of your valuable paper to give ex
pression to a few thoughts that
have for sotne time liecn on my
mind. I am a Cutlibert man in
every acceptation of the term; was
born in the town, grew to man
hood within its limits, anil expect
to sleep my last long sleep itt its
peaceful cemeteries. It is thus
that I claim the privilege of writ
ing in the interest of ourlicauti
ful little city, and ask the calm,
thoughtful consideration of our
lieiqile to the subject matter of
my communication.
It requires but a superficial
knowledge of our town to sec that
wc have rctrogadul—lost in every
thing that goes to build up and
sustain a city, and are in great
danger of losing faith in ourselves
and the future ol Cutlibert.
Now what must we do to stop
this backward tendency in otti
affairs?
In order to answer this most
important question correctly, let
us see just what wc are doing that
lias brought blight ami mildew
upon our prospects, seeing which,
I take it. every ouc will admit the
wisdom of calling an immediate
halt and reversing our course.
Well. In the first place, what
are we doing to build up—even
sustain our pel institutions? Wc
ail admit the very existence of
Cutlibert as a city of any charac
ter or importance, depends on our
Colleges. Wc talk this at home
and abroad, yet I ask again what
Cutlibert man or Cutlibert woman
is really, earnestly anti heartily
engaged in the effort to build up
our Colleges and add to their
character and usefulness?
Take Andrew College to-day,
and how is it? Why, 1 am as
sured that its support—meagre as
it is—depends more than two-
thirds upon the patronage of non
residents and strangers. We
publish to the world the excellen
cies of our Colleges, that others
may be induced to patronize
them, and yet withhold our own
support, aud send our children
elsewhere to school.
We cx|>eut the officers ol these
institutions to speed their time
and means in “drumming” for
students abroad, while we, as a
community, are utterly indiffer
ent as to our duties in the premis
es. While this applies forcibly to
our Female College, it also ap
plies to the Male College in our
midst. We have even ceased to
talk constantly and earnestly for
our Colleges—many of us allow
ing ourselves to make disparag
ing remarks and unfavorable com
parisons with other schools.
We come now to consider our
duties, one towards another, as
citizeus of the same town, sup
posed to have a community of iu
tcrest. How many of the readers
of this article have tried to do
their “mite” in building up our
city by sustaining with Ibeir pat
ronage its merchants? How many
of you have speDt your money at
home? It is a fact, to be con
fessed with regret, that every
large city iu the stale (and very
many out of it) has its regular
customers in Cutlibert.
I might goon almost indefinite
ly. but have said enough to show
that we have but to "cease to tlo
evil and learn to do well” to be
come once more prosperous at
home and respected abroad.
Every citizen of Cutlibert is
proud of her prospects to-day.
Would that every one had the
faith and the tongue of my friend
“Hub” Elder. Why, we could
soon lie great by the force of our
own confidence.
Let us all, men, women and
children resolve that Cutlibert is
great. That whatever is a part
of Cutlibert is great, ami that we
will show our faith by our worka,
giving to home institutions such
as go to build up and give char
acter to our city, our full, hearty
and constant support. We live in
Cntbbert—it is our beautiful well-
beloved home, and for it we will
speak sod think and act, nor
have ought to do with anything
or anybody speaking or acting
against Us welfare.
Yours truly,
At Home.
