Tbo Publlo library debt bas been
B.ulfifaotorlly settled and too hundreds
of vnltublo books embraced la Unit
UwCtutton nro no longer in Jeopardy.
It seems to liavo been an easy thing
to do, too, and everybody seems to bo
thoroughly satisfied with the nmingo-
ntent mndo. Wilders' Sons aro t en
tirely satisfied with tbo settlement
made by the special commUlec, mul
the committee sro more than satisfied
with tho treatment received from
iWHdevs* Sons, which they say was
very liberal and nil that could have
been asked.
The library pays Wilders’ Sons 200
in <a*h and Wilders’ Sons tako it life
membership In tbo library, valued at
$50, thus settling tho entire claim. It
turne out that the reason tho attor
ney's fees could not lio deducted from
toO debt was due to the foot tint WII-
dtrt’ Son had nlrcsdy paid the attor
ney, for which imyment they showed
tho committee receipts In full, it
would, ot course, have been asking too
much to expect Wilders’ Bonk to lose
that amount In actual cash and too
limcb to expect tho utiornlcs to refund
money already paid. But Wlldon*’
Sons' action In accepting n life mem
bership lu tli« library evened things
up and left tho committee with a debt
of only $IH) to pay, which was sat
isfied by dJsoount'aig two pf I/irnnr
Clay's rent notes of $10 each.' -
Tbo library is nmv i(radically free'
from dulit, awl the only thing yet to
bo done Is to stir up new interest in
tiie institution and cause it to bo *up-
ported In a decent manner.
ins OANNOT SERVE.
Col. It. U. ‘Nlsbot informed a Tolu-
graph reporter yostentay afternoon
lli.il under no circumstances could he
nocoiit Uio presidency of tho library
unsocial lou, >wvto which position ho
.was honored at tho eleofion held on
Mouday night, nis refusal to accept
tho position la not duo to disinclination
to servo, but is solely dr.o to tho fact
that he is already encumbered with
more duties of this nature than li* Can
possibly attend to nnd do Ilia Individ
ual Interests Justice.
Tho library directors have been In-
formed of Col. Nlalvt’s derision nnd
nnotlior election for president will have
to be ordered.
Col. JCadiet snys there Is no possible
way by which lie eon arrange to tnke
tho position, oiliemvino the publieallon

order to give tho dlreotors opportuuty
to work on him.

There wan a rumor current orester-
day tout ex-Mayor S. B. Price had
concluded to stand for alderman, from
toe Third ward hi the December elec

The Telegraph reporter (time very
near interrupting a. conversation be-
tween, the ex-Mayor and another r»U-
tlctm, when he called nt tbo postolflce
yesterday afternoon to secure nn In
terview with the prospective candi
date for aVlcrman, but by wgltlng
nitohlie ho was able to have Sir. Price
all to himself, and then the ex-Mayor
wn* flatly neked the question whether
or not he proposed to stand for alder-
man from the Third.
He w*a* firmed with a neat piece of
cardboard on which was printed in
big, black lffltera this hint:
“I have trouble* of my own.
“There are patrolmen in the city,
(Feeling for Mr. Price/ tho reporter
reached for 111" pnek and «it the
good-natured Vostmaster one like this:
’Well, try to forgdt them.”
And then they got to business, or as
near to business as Mr. Price would
get hn rfiort-notice. He laughed -ana
then laughed ngato, and then he «rald:
“Now, you go on away from hero and
let Daisy fidone. ’He’s not* (troubling
anybody. Don’t go and write me up In
the papers now, for I ain’t doing a
thing but running a postofllce to the
best of my ability."
"But a re you going ‘to run for aider-
man?” the reporter asked.
“Now. what do I want to run
for alderman for? Haven’t I go 1 -
as much as 7 can say grace over down
here? What do I -want 'to go and irth-
on more work for? Don't I keep busy
enough? I declare I've been os rruSy
as I could be all day. haven't had a
mjnute to spare.” "
"Due-aje you going to run.for ; alder-
moil?” ihmltTOiter urged. *
“Why, laudsnkt-s.'mnn^wbAteier put
Unit Idea Irflo your head? flf bet 1
know how Halt ihiug started: .1 was
up at the cffly haJI this morning, Just
looking lit to see how CKUtM were
gc'-tlng along, and some of the boy
started' to talking politics. I tried to
get away, but they kept on lain-,
und Just to be Jokltig, I said aOmc...tig
about a'poeo - X wits to run dor a.oer-
mau from the Third? I never'dough,
nnytbiug about It, but they didn’t
socm to know who to run. no i j
’ .ilial'S u..e mat.er with mo?
I've got friends on the hill and down
town, und maybe I’d be n sorbet Hap
py medium, you know. I reckoj) mat’s
now It stapled.”
"But-are you gotog to run for alder:
moat?” the-reporter gasped.
"Why, I don't reckon I could run,
even If I would, because 1 bold a gov
ernment job, und 1 see where they
ublisU something about government'
ruhM not allowing us fellows no dabble
w.'ih outside affairs. 1 never heard M
this rule till I saw It published, but 1
reckon It's so. That's why I don't think
I could run If I wanted to." '
"Well, nro you going to want to?"
pleaded the reporter. •
"Why, no: of course Il’m not. What
do 1 wont to run for? But don't go nnd
publish everything 1 say,... Iftcause
what's the use? I'm not bothering
anybody, am I? Don't you sec roe here
ai'.endlug to my business, and letting
everybody else alone?”
■ "Then you don't Intend to run for
nldotmcin?" stuck in the reporter na. a
last chance.
“No, sir; that report started about
like 1 'told you. It was a Joke., and I
never .thought much of It at the time.”
“Well, where do you stand la local
politics, anyhow?" eras asked.
"I'm for .Macon. For Macon first,
last nnd all the time.
"Have you Joined the Good Govern-:

"No; I’ve been se busy, I tell you,
