A brief statement of the facts connected with the formation of the leading libraries in the city niny be given here. First in importance, both for the variety and num -. ber of volmines it contains, is the collection made by the State, now placed in the lower rooms of the State house. . Its formation began shortly after the organization of the State government, though but little had been achieved until after the erection of the State house. The few books prior to

INDIANAPOLIS FROM 1818.
that date had been kept in the Court house and Circle building. It has since gradn ally increased, by donations. exchanges and purchases, (a small appropriation be- ing annually made for the purpose, ) until it now numbers between twenty-five and thirty-thousand volumes. Many of these are in foreign languages, gifts from foreign governments. The library was at first used both for reference and circulation The State officers, legislators. judiciary, at- Torneys and professional men only being entitled to take books out, though any one could use them for reference at the library room The circulating feature was after- ward abandoned, it being found that valu- able sets were broken, and many books an- nually lost. The library is well supplied with works in the several departments, and contains some rare and valuable books. Though in better condition now than in former years, it has never been as well ar. ranged and catalogued as it should be. The several rooms on the west side of the State house are now occupied by the libra- ry, and by the trophies and flags collected and returned by Indiana regiments in the Mexican war, and war of the rebellion.
B. F. Foster, Gordon Tanner, S. D. Lyon, R. D. Brown, Nathaniel Bolton, John B. Dillon, John Cook and others, have been the librarians
The collection of books for the County library began shortly after the organiza- tion of the county, two per cent. of the lot- fund sales being set apart for that purpose, and though many of the original books have been lost or worn out, the library has slowly and constantly increased until it now numbers over two thousand volumes It has been located in the upper room of Court house for many years, and has been in charge of James A. Hamilion. John W. Hamilton, Calvin Taylor, John Caven and others, as librarians. Seventy-five cents fee per year is charged for the use of books, and the library, which is well selected and valuable, is largely patronized, but it de- serves even more attention than it re- ceives.
The township library, formerly kept in the upper rooms of the Court house, but more recently in the third story of flereth's block, was formed under the law of 1852, providing for the formation of such collec- tions, and levying taxes for their purchase and maintenance. It numbered about two thousand volumes of generally well select- ed works, but many of the volumes have since been lost and destroyed, and not over twelve or fourteen hundred are now re- tained. It is free to all readers, who can take out books if they choose, and is very well patronized.
The Indianapolis Library Society, the first private library association here, was formed in 1827, and collected by donation, subscription and purchase, a considerable number of good books, which were located the greater part of the time the organiza- tion existed, in the Circle building, and used by the members. Obed Footc, Sr., was the librarian. The greater part of the volimes were lost, and the rest divided, and the organization died after seven or eight years.
The next private library was collected by the Umon Literary Society, formed in 1835, and existing till 1851. This collec- tion consisted of several hundred books, for the use of the members, and after the death of the society, was handed over to the Young Men's Christian Association.
The Young Men's Christian Association formed in 1854, soon afterward began the collection of a library, receiving the books of the Union Literary Society, and adding thereto until about 1,500 volumes are now found in their rooms, under charge of Rev. Mr. Armstrong, librarian.
The Young Men's Library Association, formed in 1863, shortly thereafter estab- lished a reading room in the third story of Hubbard's block, gave annual courses of lectures, and began the formation of a li- brary, which at present includes about two hunched volumes, mostly current magazine literature. The annual fee required of members is $5, entitling the holder to the use of the library and reading room, and attendance during the annual course of lectures. John Caven, has been president of the association since its origin.
The Ames Institute, a literary, lecture and library society, formed in 1860, has since accumulated a library of about five hundred volumes, now stored at the society room in Wesley Chapel. Carl Hamlin is president of the organization.
The writer has now briefly considered the leading events in the progress of the city from its first settlement to the present time. This consideration has shown that it has passed through four separate periods of development. The first began in the temporary reputation and prosperity enjoy - ed by the town when selected in 1820, as the seat of government. The location in- mediately drawing a relatively large pop- ulation here, when the surrounding conn- try was a complete wilderness. The slow development of a region so heavily tim- bered, the sickness among the early settlers, the delay in establishing the government here, and the want of communication with the outside world, put a stop to this speedy advance, and though the Capital was after- wird removed here, very little improve-
100
HISTORY OF
ment in the prospects of the town took place. The Internal Improvement scheme in 1836, began the second era, and for the time completely changed the aspect of af- fairs. Another sudden advance occurred. A marked increase in trade, in population, and in wealth, was visible, and the town was assuming an important rank, when the failure and suspension of the public works cut short its career. Its subsequent growth was very slow, being governed by the de- velopment of the surrounding territory, and it remained a country village of the better class, till October, 1847. The completion of the Madison railroad in that mouth and year, began the third era, giving the town an outlet, and making it a center for the surplus products of the surrounding re- gion. From that time till the war of the rebellion, its growth was steady, rapid and solid, and the foundation gradually laid for its future trade, but it still remained subordinate to other business centers. The fourth period began with the war in 1861, the place being at first stopped in its devel- opment, but soon advacning with a rapidity astounding to those who had been educated only by their early experiences here, and who constantly predicted a downfall. The war growth, though so rapid, was a healthy one. It was the direct result of a large trade, and the fact that a greater scope of territory was made tributary to the city, and had manufacturing been largely com- menced at the close of the war, no perma- nent cessation of the trade and growth of the place would have occurred. The four periods of development in the history of the city show that just as facilities for trade and travel have been increased, just so certain and constant has been its subse- quent growth. Merchants and manufac- turers should apply the lesson, and not only aid every effort to open new channels, but go before, and interest themselves in the trade and products of the region to be traversed by them. A great trading and manufac- turing center may be created here by pro- per effort, and the destiny of the city rests directly in the hands now controlling its active business. On the merchants, bank ers and manufacturers, rests the responsi bility for its future growth or decadence and they can not escape it by waiting for
citizens of other sections to do that which so clearly devolves upon them.
This sketch is now ended. No apology is needed for the effort to write it, but one is due for the manner in which the task has been executed. When the writer con- sented to undertake it, he intended to give merely a general review of the progress of the city from its first settlement, (revising, correcting and extending an article he had prepared for the Directory of 1857,) and limiting the sketch to forty-eight pages. The material collected soon compelled an enlargement of the work, and finally much care was needed to prevent its expansion to a volume. All attempt at embellish- ment by personal sketches or anecdote, was abandoned, and the author's sole aim was to crowd the greatest number of facts, important or unimportant, into the fewest words, the object being to perpetuate matter that would soon be irrecoverably lost. To this cause must be ascribed the careless style, the paragraphic character of the con- tents, and the repetition of the same facts in different connections. Many of these repetitions were necessary, but others, es- pecially in the last half of the work, arose from the fact that several compositors were constantly wanting "copy," and as fast as the manuscript was prepared, it went to the printer, and not being again seen by the writer, some repetitions unavoidably oc- curred. The collection of material and its preparation for the press, has been done at night, or in leisure moments, amid the press of other matters. It has involved much rapid and exhausting labor, and though errors have doubtless been com- mitted, the author trusts he has recovered so much that was almost lost, that crudities in style and inaccuracies in statement will be forgiven.
The author would return his thanks to the old citizens who assisted him by their personal statement of facts, and espe- cially to the heirs of the late Calvin Fletcher, for the use of the files of papers collected and left by that gentleman, from which, far more than from any other source, the facts were secured on which this article is founded.

The Railroad interests of Indianapolis are equal to any other, this being, at present, one of the most important railroad centers in the Western States, compared with the population of its inhabitants, there being, as will be
seen by a reference to the above and preceding and following pages, 9 dis- tinct and separate railroads, and 3 more in process of completion, all leading in different directions to al- most every conceivable point of the compass, from this city. There are also 14 lines of roads, either directly or indirectly leading to and from this city, by close and convenient connec- tions, the cards of some of which may be found in the following pages, fully set forth, and it is designed to correct and increase this record from year to year. And all Railroad lines that desire to be identified or represented in these pages, can have space by sending the publishers copy, and conforming to our terms. See price list on first leaves of book ; and any desiring to exchange, will notify the publishers of the fact, in advance of publication, each year. The following are a list of the through and fast freight lines and transportation companies having agencies in this city. The formation of these lines greatly facilitate the shipment of all classes of merchandise or produce of a heavy or sizable nature, as the majority of these lines own their own cars, which run through without reship- ment.
