To this list of parks proper I have
added the Bathing Grounds, the Pub
lie Landing and the New Reservoir
Site because these are usually treated
as park lands. These parks are all
within city limits and are we'll scat
tered over our municipal area. Our
forefathers, the founders of this city,
were wise and sufficiently farsighted
to lay aside ample ground for parks,
which is not often the case when cities
are first planned.
Figuring the city's population at
5000 we have one acre of park land for
every 81 inha bitants, which is crafty
ingly high as compared with other
cities. We even have better show
ing than our national Capital, which
is considered to be the most beautiful
city in America. Washington has
one acre of park lands for every 10
inhabitants. Following is a list of
other cities, giving the number of in
habitants to each acre of park land. :

Ice Harvest.

The New UlnaIce Go. have finished
the ice harvest for the present season
and the quality is very fine the ice be-
ing clean and clear. The average thick
ness is about 18 to 20 inches. A great
deal of trouble was experienced on ac-
count of the heavy snow. The company
has harvested over 1000 tons and en-
ployed during the season - teams.
Great care was taken to obtain ice from
the deepest places in the river and thus
the best and cleanest ice was secured.

OPPOSES COUNTY OPTION
The German-American Alliance Of
Minnesota Issues the Follow.
Ing Appeal to the Voters.

For some years the question of pro-
hibition of the manufacture, sale and
consumption of spirituous, malt and
yinous liquors has occupied a promi-
nent place in Minnesota Politics.
The nti-saloon League, of this
state has called a pretended non-par-
tisan convention to be held in the Au-
ditorium at ST. Paul, March End, 1910,
for the purpose of calling upon the
political parties to adopt a county op-
ton plank in their state platforms,
county option being preliminary
step to statewide prohibition accord
ing to the statements of the official or
gan OF the Anti-Saloon League.
The primary object of the Anti-Sa-
loon League is to secure the nominal
ton and election of state and legisla-
tive officials who are pledged to the
enactment of a county option law and
other prohibitory measures.
The opposition of German-American
citizens to the arbitrary prohibition Of
the manufacture, sale and consump-
ton Of spirituous, malt and vinous
beverages is we'll known. They hold
with the highest medical, moral and
ecclesiastical authorities, that the evils
resulting from these beverages, lie in
their abuse and not in their proper
use, and when the law has stringently
regulated their manufacture and sale,
it has exhausted the entire function of
the law, and that sumptuary prohibit
tiOn of their manufacture, sale and
consumption is an unwarranted in
fringement of the individual personal
liberty, which is the inherent right of
every American citizen.
Characterization citizens steadfast-
ly stand for such regulation and con-
troll, but they are rock-frm in their
opposition to any legislation that con-
fers upon one man the right to say to
another what he shall eat or drink, or
in any way to interfere with the right
OF Individual personal liberty, which
is the most sacred heritage of this
republic.
A law forbidding man to buy and
drink a glass of ale, wine or beer
would be as fragrant violation of
this fundamental principle, on which
our glorious republic is founded, as a
law compelling a man to buy and
drink.
The advocates of sumptuary prohi-
bitory legislation are politically ac-
tive in every part of the state; with
untiring industry, they are seeking to
control caucuses, primaries and domi-
n ate elections to secure officials pledged
to the passage of county option and
other sumptuary and prohibitory leg
islation. Pretending to be non-parti-
san, they are nevertheless actively
political and partisan.
1t therefore behooves our German
American citizens and all lovers of
individual liberty and believers in the
rights of man to meet this activity of
the Anti-Saloon League by being vigil
liant and untiring in the exercise of
their political functions; to act togeth-
er, untiringly and intelligently in or
der that the rights OF American citi-
zenship may be preserved to us and
our posterity.
By order of the Executive Commit
tee of the German-American Alliance.

the county, plainly labeled.
Each county will have a table, So by
80 inches, so that the IS counties will
require space about 80 by Is feet.
exclusive of the aisles necessary to
make the exhibits available to the
general public.
Mr.. Sherman is sending to each
county urging that citizens there make
the selection for that county, instead
of having the selection made by OUT,
slders at st. Paul.
Those addressed by Mr.. Sherman
are urged to take the matter up with
public-spirited folks on the ground
and start the ball rolling.
The exhibits must reach st. Paul not

The Review hopes that our public

together and use all efforts to make
the best showing. By united effort
of all county representatives we'll
chase Louis Hill with his idea that
minnesota is dead one'' to the
backwoods where he belongs.
