CITY PARKS.

Topeka people, returning from a visit
to Kansas City, where millions of dol
lars are being used in procuring and
maintaining necessary parks, and from
Chicago and other eastern cities where
beautiful parks are already provided,
have a desire to see something done
here to make a place of beauty out
of our city park, and see other parks
provided for while the necessary ground
can be procured at a minimum cost.
We will be compelled to have parks
in a few years. If procured now the
ground will cost comparatively little. If
the matter is deferred a. few years, the
expense will be immense.
The seeming indifference of our peo-
pie is probably owing to the fact that
we are just emerging from the town in
which parks are not a necessity, into
the city where they will be a necessity.
The law governing cities of the first
class places it within the power Of the
people to provide at an almost imper-
ceptable cost, when the matter is not
too long delayed, ample parks.
BY creating large benefit districts in
Topeka and purchasing such lots as
may be required for park purposes,
using the parks already owned by the
city, Topeka can in a very short time
add greatly to her beauty and attrac-
tfveness and provide breathing places
which will tend to the continued COM
fort and good health of her people

help further the efforts of those who
met Thursday evening at the residence
of NJ. A. Low on Fillmore street, to Sc
