An Interesting Description
Of an Ambitious Project
for Municipal Improve:
ments. ~: j.. ..... -.

a CIVIC CENTER is a necessity
"a to well-developed town, both
- as nucleus Of business and its
chief artistic element. It is the point
toward which population naturally flows
either because it is the heart Of the
business district or because of public
buildings. 1t is made effective by
grouping together important structures
and made ornamental by their relation
to each other and to a usual open space
as a setting. But it is not a problem
alone by itself; it has no reason for 4
being unless it is the center of COM
prehensive scheme which embraces the
entire city. F.,
Minneapolis needs just such center,
attractive and dignifed, and in proper
ton to the Importance of the town. 1t
also needs some easy way of getting to
this center, and by this means an easy
method Of passing to all parts of the
city. The chief elements entering into
the question are the business district.
the railway stations, the city hall and
access to them. ID
The Minneapolis Problem.
The problem of Minneapolis is unique
because Of the position of Hennepin
avenue and the railroads. The natural
geographical center Of the business dis
trict is in the vicinity of the city hall
for this reason. 1t is impossible for
business in quantity to cross such bar
riers as the Milwaukee railroad and the
river on the east and similar barriers
on the west, such as the chain of lakes
and the St. Louis railway. The city
hall is the center of the resulting dis
trict enclosed by these boundaries. ~
On the other hand, the natural i'm
portance of Hennepin avenue as a
diagonal street has created an exces-
sive business development in it's vicin-
ity. Any street so planned that people
taking it will save one step out Of every
four is bound to become a great avenue
and draw business near it, A diagonal
street always has this effect. The re-
suit is that Hennepin avenue has drawn
business away from it's natural center
to one side in such a manner that q
large expanding business continuing
there alone is likely to. be cramped.
A larger Minneapolis would best have
It's ultimate center of business nearer
the city hall. It. Gamble accomplished
by this means. AS the west portion OF
the central district has been developed
by Hennepin avenue, so the east por
ton can be developed by a similar
diagonal, not at the expense of Hen
nepin, but in addition to Hennepin
Further, a normal junction of any nat
ural system of east-and-west diagonals
would be at the city hall.
But we have to consider the He en-
nepin avenue bridge as the great inl
between the East and West Sides. Also
that trains crossing the stone arcl
bridge can discharge their passenger
only near the Hennepin avenue bridge
thus increasing its Importance
The conclusion is that the civic cen

Esthetic possibilities in connection
with such center force the same con-
clusion. T.. ~...' b -; -
No; greater esthetic need is appar-
ent than that the city hall should be
unveiled to the public view. Here is
a great building Of beautiful proper
lions and costing millions practically
screened by other buildings. It can
taken on ali sides of it so it can be
seen. When seen, it is the great civic
monument Of the city.
Minneapolis is developing a wonder
full park system, and one Of its aims
is to acquire all possible of the banks

enjoyment A climax and center of

way station lis located near the bridge,

Of south, for two reasons. If it is
advisable. for: Minneapolis to have a
true union station, this is the place for
it,, since all the railways can get to-
sgether on the same level only in this
vicinity. The space. south Of the bridge
is required by the St: Louis, the Mil
wankee,f the 500 and the Great North
erns roads to reach the lower grade in.
Also if the station is placed north Of
Hennepin avenue, front on Hennepin
will face southeast over a plaza COM
manding, the magnificent view Of the
river and within easy reach Of a posi-
BILE plaza about the city hall. If it is
not advisable for the city. to have a

| is sufficient to cause the city to

one station, ample access to the others

FIVE HUNDRED IN AN ICE RIOT

FIVE HUNDRED IN AN ICE RIOT.
NEW YORK, July 2O-Five hundred
people engaged in an ice riot here
yesterday.
Throughout the larger cities of the
East, and particularly in New York,
each summer brings it's conflict be-
tween the consumers and the ice trusts
or the alleged ice trusts. This sum-
mer the price of ice has risen above
the average. With the heat such
that there are daily prostrations and
deaths, ice is a necessity and any raise
in the price is consequently bitterly
resented, so much so that ice wagons
are sometimes raided by gangs 10 the
tougher parts of the cities and the
commodity seized by force.

County Telephone company has permitted the
Tri-State to connect with the exchange in
this city the Northwestern system ia somewhat

they will not use the exchange in common with

Ever since the NicOet County company was
organized it has worked in harmony with the

State extended its lines into this part Of the

five years have maintained toll station in the

In that time repeated efforts have been made
to secure permission to enter the central sta

granted they also given to understand
that eventually they would be allowed to con
meet here. This promise has been full
filed and in few days the Tri-State will
be operating thru the exchange.
When the Northwestern company was advised
of the action taken by the board Of directors
