THE MATTER OF SHADE TREES
The People Of Gates County Towns
Awakening to Tt.


Awakening to It.
A large number of property owners
in Bruce are setting out shade and orn-
amental trees on their residence prop
critics. Just think of it: Bruce, town
that, when it was located, was in the
heart Of a giant forest, was robbed of
the beautiful trees Nature had planted,
and now, when the place has grown to
be q thriving town, a person who wish
es to have shade trees, is obliged to set
them out. The early settlers surely
did not realize the injury they were
doing the place When they cut down all
the trees. Bruce News Letter,
The News agrees with it's Bruce con-
temporary as to the value of shade
trees. 1t believes that this important
matter should not longer be neglected
by any of our towns. The trees are
not alone q comfort they are benefit
to any town in that they add to ap-
pearance and impress visitors with the
idea that the towns are populated with
progressive people. They repay their
cost from every point of view.
But the News Letter is in error in
it's idea that the original trees could as
we'll have been preserved. The ex-
perience of all who have done clearing
is to the contrary. Fires are necessary
to clearing and they are destructive to
the trees. To avoid injuring trees it
would be necessary to convey the rub
Dish at considerable cost. Then, too,
the natural trees are poorly rooted to
withstand the winds when the land is
cleared. The chances are too strongly
against their surviving for shade.
The best way is doubtless to clear the
ground of all trees and transplant. To
do this we'll, the trees must be planted
we'll into the ground and pruned to give
proper growth to trunk and roots.
But there is no reason why this should
not be done at once, when single day
will accomplish n1uch progress. Plant
trees do it now.

A Crusade With Results.

Former State Auditor Dunn of Mimi
esota was candidate for governor of
that state last fall. He was the re-
publican candidate and the normal re-
publican majority in that state is about
100, 600. So Dunn appeared to have a
sure thing. Opposed to him was John
A. Johnson, supposed to be in hope
less minority. But issues were drawn
upon questions of duty in office. Mr..
Dunn's official career was raked over.
Charges were made that he had allow
ed state timber to be stolen by vast cor
porations and the trespasses settled at
a fraction of the actual value of the
timber taken. The law provides for
treble damages. Mr.. Dunn had &C
copied, it was claimed, about half the
actual value of such timber.
Mr.. johnson not only cvercame the
hundred thousand votes, bat won by a
majority of $4,000.
There is but one natural result TO
such a campaign-a that is closer
observance of the duties of Office. 1t
may not result in the adoption of the
theory that public Office is public
trust" but it will raise question in
the minds of officials whether 'public
office is-to remain always-a private
snap" The state is now suing for
treble damages, and the following is
one batch of the cases on hand:
The Backus-Brooks company is sued
for the largest amount. This IS one Of
the companies whose trespass was up
for settlement in a bill before the last
legislature, but the measure was de-
feated. This company cut timber from
a number of state tracts IN Itasca coun-
ty. The amount of damages demanded
by the state is $50, 1876.
The Shevlin- Carpenter company cut
from a section in northern ST. Louis
county and is asked to pay $51, 324. A.
The trepasses charged against Bon
ness & Howe are all in Itasca county.
Damages of $10,951.61 are asked.
The Pine Tree Lumber company is
charged with illegally cutting timber
from two tracts in Itascacounty. Dam
ages asked, 81, 304.61.
The Pine Tree Lumbea' company is
charged with illegal Underwriting on
one tract in Itasca county; damages
asked, Sc, 554.03.
The C. A. Smith Timber company is
charged with illegal cutting of pine
from two tracts in Itasca county; dam
ages asked, $4,791.70.
