WILL BEAUTIFY ARMY
POSTS IN FAR ISLANDS
Uncle Sam Has Adopted Plan in Phil
ippnes for Planting Trees and
Other Tropical Foliage

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Sept 24.-Not
to be behind Manila in its plan to
beautify the city by Strengthening its
lines, planting shade trees and other
tropical foliage and converting its
waste spaces into well ordered and
beautifying parks the military author
tiles now purpose to direct their ef-
forts to improving and beautifying the
various posts and garrisons throughout
the islands, so that visitors to the Phil
ippines will be impressed with the
beauty and wealth of tropical foliage
that satisfies the eye and pleases the
Senses not only at Manila but in other
parts of the islands as well.
Some steps have been taken in this
direction already, many shade trees
and other foliage having been planted
at the various posts, particularly at
Fort Mckinley, JOSSman and Zambo-
anga, and arrangements have been
made for a study of horticulture by
a non commissioned officer of the army
at the Manila nurseries, which knowl-
edge thus gained will be disseminated
in an effort to make the various gar
risons throughout the islands as at
tractive as possible, says the Manila
Times.
The city nurseries are doing their
part toward the work of beautifying
the islands and are constantly growing
those palms, ferns and other tropical
plants which form an important part
in the work. Many plants have been
sent to the different military posts and
many more are being grown with all
the care and skill known to the science
of horticulture. To this institution the
military authorities, through the cour-
tesy of the municipal board, will send
a non commissioned officer from the
garrison of the coast artillery at Cor
regidor, whose duty it shall be to
study horticulture and the methods
employed at the city nurseries.
The city nurseries are raising thou
sands of plants which are destined at
some future time to adorn the city
parks and military posts throughout
the islands. The different hothouses
are now filled with Philippine plants
of all hues and degrees of beauty and
age which are taken out as occasion re-
quires and transplanted in uninviting
spots all over the city, making them
restful to the eye and a welcome addi-
ton to those little oases which tend to
make the city attractive.

It is indeed unfortunate that such
controversy should arise, as to the
death of Neutzling. This paper
does not claim to know any of the
facts in the case, except that Neutz-
ling was injured in the yards at Cass
Lake and was brought to Bemidji,
dying a few hours after being brought
here. If there was neglect, some
one should be punished therefor; if
there was not, retractoin should be
made.

last night from Winnipeg and are
prepared to entertain the visitors
at the Scotch picnic tomorrow. Be-
sides Mr.. Collie there are his two
sons, Duncan and Allen, Willie
Davidson and R. NJ. Call.
The Bemidji band of fourteen
pieces has been engaged to play at
the picnic and will assist in en-

The committee has also arranged
for number of sports which will
in clude 1OO-yard dash, a ladies'

There will also be quoit-pitch-
ing contest which will be conducted
during the day.
In addition to the small sports
there will beaCaledonian tug-of-war,
between two teams of four men on
each side.
Boats will be in service from
early in the morning of the day of
the picnic until late at night for
the purpose of taking the pic
nlckers from the city across to the
outlet and back; this service will
be free to those who have tickets
and badges.
The first boat will leave the city
dock at 9 o'clock in the morning.
During the day an elaborate
repast will be served to all those in
attendance at the picnic and special
plans are being carried out to make
this one of the greatest outdoor
spreads ever gotten up in this vic
unity.
At the conclusion of the repast,
and when the inner man" has been
sufficiently replenished, it is expected
that there will be impromptu vocal

will attend.

MAINTAIN THAT CHARGE
OF NEGLECT is TRUTH
Coroner at St. Cloud Asserts That
Nicholas NeutzIing Did Not
Receive Proper Care. ::


That considerable feeling has been
worked up between the relatives OF
Nicholas Neutzling, the young man
who died as the result of injuries
received in the railroad yard at
Cass Lake, and the attending physi.
clans who examined the body of
Neutzling after the remains reached
St. Cloud, is very evident, judging
from articles published in the St.
Cloud Journal-Press.
The Journal-Press recently printed
an article wherein St. Cloud physi-
clans made the statement that Neutz-
ling came to his death through the
neglect of the physician who
attended him at the time of his
accident CDR. Christensen of Cas-
Lake,
The Pioneer reprinted the article
in the Journal-Press, and in all fair
ness to the doctor in question, told
him of the article and requested a
statement from him, which was also
printed, this paper taking no part
whatever in the controversy, but
simply giving the facts and the COM
ment of the doctor.
The Journal.Press again comes out
with the following statements
when seen this morning Deputy
County Coroner DR.. Dunn, who was
one of the post norton examiners,
stated that the local physicians came
to their conclusion only after the
| most thorough examination. ...
He said that not a single bone

THE AUDITORS HEARING
CONCLUDED BEFORE NOON
Charges Against Commissioners Sibley Wright and
Danaher Taken Up.-The Charges Are Combined but
Each Commissioner Can Answer Separately. :

far from being accurate; that the
tax lien record at the time he took
the auditors office was very mac.
curate and contained number of
duplicates, as we'll as many omissions.
F. w. Rhoda was called as witness
for Mr.. Wilmann.
Mr.. Rhoda stated that he was
familiar with the work in the audi
tors Office, having worked as deputy
county auditor of Todd county for
five years and Beltrami county
for nearly three years.
He said that between November
IS, 1908. and January 4, 1909,
he worked twenty-nine days in
the auditors office, considerable
of this time being evenings; that
during this time F. S. Arnold,
Caroline Kiehm, 10 Hegg and
Bertha Benson were at work in the
auditors office, and put in consider
able overtime.
In regard to the third charge, that
of failing to present to the board of
county commissioners statement
in writing showing the amount due
on every fund, amount of taxes
raised and amount due on uncom-
pleted contracts, Mr.. Wilmann
stated that at the January and
July meeting there was presented to
the board an abstract of statement
of 1908 taxes, as we'll as the finan-
cial statement.
This action was objected to by
Mr.. Smith, whose contention was
that it did not conform to the state
ment required of the auditor by
Section 488 of the 1905 code.
On being asked if the public
examiner or his deputy had called
his attention to this omission, Mr..
Wilmann stated that Mr.. Kahn had
never mentioned this to him. Neither
had Mr.. Kahn stated that this was
required as a part of the minutes
to be published by the board of
county commissioners.
Regarding the charge of emitting
description of land from the tax list,
these descriptions charged in the

Yesterday afternoon Mr.. Wilmann
resumed his testimony and stated
that the delinquent tax lists for the
years 1906, 1907 and 1908 contained
between four and five thousand
descriptions and that it was no small
task to pick this list out; that the
tax list for 1909 was signed by F. S.
Arnold, deputy, and the books
turned over to the county treasurer
before his return from St. Paul; that
the returns from the state board of
equalization reached Bemidji and
were filed October 10; that these
returns required IS per cent raise on
all real estate { of which there were
about $4,000 and there were ten
changes to be made in the personal
property assessments as returned by
the assessors.
Mr.. Wilmann stated that from
October IL until January 4, it was
necessary for the auditors office to
to make the November tax settle.

and make the settlement on the same,
prepare and send out the general
election supplies, canvass the elec-
ton returns, attend several meetings
of the county board, as we'll as make
up the 1907 assessment books and
financial statement; that there were
90 townships, IL villages, l city and
127 school districts to extend taxes
for during this time.
On cross-examination by Mr..
Smith, Mr.. Wilmann stated that the
tax books of 1907 and previous
years on delinquent real estate sold
for taxes and not previously re-
deemed were marked in the treas
urer's tax books as sold for taxes"
that he did not mark any of the
descriptions sold for taxes" because
when he went to St. Paul he left
this in charge of a deputy, whom he
supposed would see that the work
was done.
When asked as to whether or not
he kept tax lien record, Mr.. Will
mann stated that he did, but that it
was not an official record and was
