CANNOT USE BAYLlSS PARK
Board of Park Commissioners Declares Itseli
on the Proposition.
LOOK ELSEWHERE FOR LIBRARY sITI
Decision Is Announced to Fight for
City's Right 20 Big Lake Park 20
Court of Last Resort
IL Necessary.

THE Carnegie public library building
will never be erected in the center Of Bay
llss park. Those who are agitating the
park as a site for the new library build
ing may as we'll understand this now as
later. The Board of Park Commissioners
will never give its consent to any portion
of this park being utilized as a site for
the library" This was the emphatic state
ment OF the entire Board Of Park Commits
sloners at the regular monthly session
yesterday afternoon.
In making this statement the board ad-
mitted that the library trustees had not
up to date made any suggestion that they
had even considered Bayliss park as a site
for the new building, but some of the pa
pels had suggested this location. A pas
tor OF one Of the churches, the commits
sioners said, had in a pulpit utterance
made a statement to the effect that the
library ought not TO be placed anywhere
else Commissioner Graham was even
more emphatic than his conferees in stat
ing that the board would never consent
to the park being utilized as site for
the new library. He said: Few cities If
any possess a prettier little park than
Council Bluffs has In Bayliss park and 1t
would be a sacrilege to place a large build
center Of it. The authority OF this board
in such matters is absolute and the trus-
tees Of the public library will have to look
elsewhere for location for the new build
ing"
President Peterson of the park board ex-
pressed the opinion that the most suitable
site for the new library building was the
w. H. M. Pusey homestead property at the
aouthwest corner of Willow avenue and
Pearl street and his opinion was concurred
in by Commissioner Schmidt. Commits
sioner Graham favored the corner Of First
avenue and Sixth street, occupied by the
First Baptist church.
The greater part Of yesterdays session
was devoted by the board to a discussion
of the suit brought by Wright and Mayne
TO secure possession of Big Lake park.
The board will fight the case to the bitter
end, no matter what the expense may be,
10 protect the city's interest In the PARK.
The park fund for 1908 will amount to
something over $1,000 on a 2-mill tax levy,
and the board stated yesterday that 1t
would expend every cent of this II neces-
sary to fight the suit. Owing to this liti-
cation the board stated IL would be unable
TO determine what improvements, II any,
would be carried out this year in the dit
ferent parks.
The winter salaries of the park police
men we're increased as follows; @. John
son. Fairmount park, from $50 TO $S5; ].
o'Hearn, Bayliss park, from $40 to $40;
ID. Mottaz, Cochran park. from $40 to Sl5.
Whitemore, the policeman at big Lake
park, receives a salary OF $15 month all
the year round. as he has the privilege OF
renting boats there.
