And we just wish for someone to
plat site east of the lake with a
fine boulevard along the shore and
cottages fronting to the same as
we'll as to the lake, just as it is at
Lake Harriet and Lake Calhoun,
Minneapolis, and Lake Como at St.
Paul and others that have electric
lights all along the lake shore in
the evenings, lighting up the lake,
the road, and the frontage of the
cottages at the same time. Any
one going down to the cities this
summer ought not to miss seeing
all these lakes, and then come home
and 60 to Spicer and compare and
see which you would prefer and
which way would value the proper
tv the most. We have an opinion
that if someone would start in to
build this way the rest would soon
change front and do the same, and
in the case Of this road on the lake
shore we are sure that the county
commissioners would not refuse to
aid. They seem to be men of judg-
ment and who dare to act accord
ingly. If town, county and state
officers all would do their duty to-
ward the public and not favor GER
tain rich men and corporations,
things like the above mentioned
would never occur. F. o. S.

The State Entomologist has just
issued Circular No. II, showing

typhoid. tuberculosis and other dis
eases, and what a menace it is in a
dwelling house. both to children
and adults. The circular is we'll H.
lustrated, and tells how to elimi-
nate the fly, or reduce it's dangers
to the minimum. The same circu-
lar advises housekeepers how to
keep their woolens and furs during
the summer months away from the
clothes moth, and other insects
which attack these fabrics.
This circular will be mailed free

Fish Law Convictions.

Sixty prosecutions for illegal
fishing have been brought Minneso.
ia since May l, and nearly all have
resulted either in pleas of guilty
or convictions. Most cases are for
taking bass out of season or for
fishing with lights. The bass sea-
son did not begin until Saturday
and fishing with lights is not per-
mitted during May and June.
Carlos Avery Of the state game
and fish commission says there is no
more illegal fishing in the state
than in former years. tho there
have been as many fines paid this
month as there used to be in a
whole year. May has broken all
previous records. The difference
is that the public is now indorsing
game protection.

PUBLIC ROADS
AT GREEN LAKE
Green Lake Citizen Pleads Thai
Some of the ShOreline Be
Saved For the Public.
Spicer, May 20, 1909.
Editor Wil]mar Tribune,
Wil|mar MINI

Spicer, May 20, 1909.
Editor Willmar Tribune,
Willmar. MINI.
In regard to the petition for a
county road south and east Of Green
Lake, it was generally understood
that the road was intended to be on
the lake shore. and when it was
found that the survey had it from
300 feet to one-half mile from the
lake, a number of the singers to-
gether with others, some over
seventy names, signed and sent to
the county commissioners the fol-
lowing petition:
''To the Honorable Board of
County Commissioners, Kandiyohi
County. Minnesota:
eve, the undersigned freehold
ers and legal voters of the Towns of
Green Lake, Harrison, Irving and
New London and the Village of
Spicer, respectfully petition you as
follows: That we are directly in
terested in the new road now under
consideration on the south and east
of Green Lake. And that we believe
that the general course as stated in
the petition is indefinite and mis-
leading, and that the tendency of
the petition at present is to lay out
the road some distance from the
lake shore. And that by granting
said petition the general public
would be deprived of enjoying
one Of Gods greatest gifts, that of
free access to this beautiful lake.
And that we believe that these gen.
erous gifts of nature should be en-
joyed by all and not pass into the
hands of a few for selfish reasons
only.
THEREFORE, BE IT RE-
SOLVED, that we protest against
paying any taxes toward such road
unless the general course follows
the lake shore wherever it is prac-
ticable to do so.'
The proposed road was viewed the
22nd day Of May by committee of
three of the county commissioners
and a number of others from Irving,
Harrison and Green Lake, who de-
clared unanimously to have the road
on the lake shore or no road at all
as the Village of Spicer is now try
ing to close up all the lake shore
from the public. and number of
other privates bought up the land
west and north of the lake and plat
ted in the same needless way to an
eternal shame and disgrace to the
whole community that let such a
thing pass.
But as a thing is never settled
until settled right, we are of an
opinion that some changes will yet
be made, otherwise better change
the good old rule, Equal rights to
all and special privileges to none,"
to read, Equal rights no more but
special privileges to few" But
after all we cannot see what a priv
ilege it is to have a pen sometimes
fenced down in the water with barb
wire. How much more pleasant
would it not be to have chance to
take walk or ride along the shore,
and we have heard many of those
who have cottages on Green Lake
say that they would prefer to have
the road in front on the lake. shore.
