WHAT IS THIS SCHEME?
Proposition TO Build a Big BouIe-
ward to Medicine Lake.

Next Saturday afternoon the park
board will meet again. At that meet
ing a little scheme will be sprung which
is expected to create a ripple, approach
ing in size to wave on the surface of
the smoothly flowing current OF park
board affairs. Commissioner Ryan is at
the bottom of this scheme to all inter
ests and purposes. Members of the
board seem to think that Mr.. RYAN IS
acting for some one else. What is the
scheme? The laying cut of a 2O0-foot
boulevard from the city of Minneapolis
to Medicine lake. Quite ascheme, isn't
it, when once considered?
Commissioner Ryan will lay the prop
osition before the board, so it is said.
1t is scarcely probable that it will be
acted upon favOrably. What is it for?
That is the question that troubles sew
eral park commissioners. Is it a real
estate scheme? Those who are not on
the inside affect to believe that it is.
They cannot see wherein the public
would be benefited by the eX-
penditure of so much money. And
the construction of a 200-foot boulevard
out to Medicine lake would cost a lot of
money. Whence it is expected to start
is not known publicly as yet If from
the city limits the expenditure would be
great, since at least seven miles of boul-
evard would have to be acquired and
graded and parked. Then this parkway
would have to be kept in order. If it is
contemplated to start from some point
within the city the expense would be
thereby increased. Then who would be
benefited.
One or two Minneapolis men own
most of the property around Medicine
lake. They have been for more than
one year industriously booming that
section as suburban residence locali-
ty. OF course they would be very glad
to have the city build a magnificent
boulevard out there to their property.
But who. besides them and their posi-
bic purchasers, would be benefited, and,
moreover, what does the city want of
big park away out in the country when
there is more demand for parks in the
city than the park board can pay for this
year or next year. The opponents
of this scheme urge that it would be
madness to build a boulevard for the
comparatively few people that want to
go to Medicine Lake. There is already

way future elections went, And had
they been successful last November they
would have saddled a board of public

a curse to every city afflicted with it.
And during all these political changes

The switchmen of the Great Northern
road are on the verge Of strike. The
t;e-up in the yards is expected any day.
1t almost came last week. but was
smoothed over temporarily. A strike
can scarcely be averted, however. and
when it comes it will involve all the
men in both Minneapolis and st. Paul.
An unpopular superintendent is the
cause Of it all.
a few weeks ago John Jarvis was
made uperintendant of all the yards in
both cities. He had been yardmaster
in st. Paul, and while he was an old
railroad man he was extremely unpopu-
lar with the yard employees. His first
official act, after promotion. only in
creased his unpOpularity. The Great
Northern has two yards in Minneapolis,
one on the west side of the river, and
the other on the east side called the
junction yard. Two new night yard
masters were appointed by Jarvis as
soon as he became superintendent. One
of them, the man given charge of the
West side yard, was an old employee
and satisfactory to the men. 1t WAS
over at the junction that the kick arose.
Jarvis made his nephew night yardmaS-
ter there. The men would not have oU-

was competent. But they say he does
not know his business. He had been
employed formerly as yard clerk over at
the junction. The men say that his
duties as yard clerk gave him no
knowledge of The practical duties of a
yardmaster. They didn't like Jarvis
and they didn't love his nephew. This
promotion of green man over the
heads of old employees CALLED them. But
they merely muItered at that time.
Last week the day yardman at the
junction was squeezed between a couple
OF cars. OF course he was laid up. Then
Jarvis tried TO make another yard clerk
into yardmaSter at the junction. This
was too much. The men could stand
one such appointment, but they refused
to put up with two. They quit right
there. That was last Wednesday. The
men quit work and stayed Off a whole
halliday. They refused to turn switch.
The trouble was compromised, how
ever, for the time, and the yardmen
went to work again. Now they are
waiting. Supt. Case, of the Great
Northern, is away from st. Paul. He
Will not return until the 18th of April.
he is the only man who can settle the
difficulty. For his return the men are
anXiously waiting. Meanwhile they are
doing just what they are obliged to do,
but no more. They still feel ugly. Jar
Wis, the man who caused all the trouble,
IS said TO be not only unpopular with
the men, but unpopular with business
men, the patrons of the road.

tathering any such enterprise. He has
opposed the acceptance of Col. Kings

was opposed to the preparation
