a few years would be of immense
value to the city. Each winter has
witnessed the stripping Of some ri
the timber from the lands, and this
winter several parcels have been
sold and the trees have all been re-
moved from the land. Gradually
the people are waking up to the
fact that unless something is done,
the city, if it wants trees or parks,
will have to start with a bare soil
and a lot of nursery seedlings.
To make possible the acquisition
of such property, the Commercial
Club of this city has caused to be
drafted a bill, creating of each city
of more than 1000 inhabitants, a
park district, the affairs of which
are to be administered by a COM
mission of five members who shall
be appointed by the city council,
who shall serve without compensa-
tion, for a term of three years, This
commission shall have power to is
sue bonds bearing not more than 6
per cent interest, the bonding power
being limited to 2 per cent OF the
assessed valuation Of the city prop
erty, but if it is desired TO exceed
that limit, bonds may be issued up
to 5 per cent Of the assessed valua-
ton by a majority vote of the peo-
pie voting on the proposition. The
commission may levy an annual
tax for maintenance of not to ex-
coed 5 mills on the dollar of valua-
ton.
Under this proposed law, cities
will not be compelled to spend
money in this manner unless they
desire, and if the desire exists the
provisions surrounding the bill will
make 1T absolutely sate.- Grand
