Parks Will Get Attention.

1t was stated today that the board OF
charities has not begun to make up
it's estimates, inasmuch as none of the
institutions which come under its
supervision has reported on the amount
that will be needed for maintenance
expenses next year.
1T will be week or more, in all
probability. before the figures are in
the Office of the board of charities.
while extra time will be consumed
during their preparation for submls-
sion to the Commissioners.
When the school estimates viii
reach the Commi sioners is mat
ter of doubt. 1t is expected. however.
that they will be in earlier than the
estimates of the board of charities.
1t may be stated upon authority that
one of the features of the District S
estimates for the next fiscal year will
be the provision for extensive park i'm
provements.
The reduction in the amounts usual
ly called for in certain divisions of the
engineers Office of the District, 1T is
said. will result in a saving which it
is planned to utilize in making street

Local Question at Issue.

An imperial edict recently placed un-
der the ministry Of communications of
the central government the construction
of all trunk lines throughout the en-
pire. and Cancelled all concessions for
the private construction of trunk lines
previous to the year 1911. That meas
ure affected the line which was being
built by Chinese private enterprise in
the province of SZechuan, and, ac-
cording to the State Department, has
doubtless precipitated the present mani
festations in province always con-
sidered more than ordinarily turbulent.
In the view Of the government officials
here, the province is one which reac-
tionary tendencies, the cry of China
for the Chinese and certain amount
of anti-foreign tendency have made
the economic and progressive measures
of reform and industrial development
introduced by the central government
more slow to be appreciated and under
stood than in other parts of China

Warships Within Call.

Admiral Murdocks flagship, the Sara
toga, is at Woosong, the New Orleans is
at Shanghai and two or three United
States gunboats are cruising in the Yang
TIE river.
Orders have been given to Admiral
Murdock to distribute the United States
fleet in the manner best calculated to
forestall any possible danger to Amer
lean citizens. The distance from
Chengtu to Chungking. where there are
several gunboats, requires a ten-day
journey. while Chengtu is four days
journey from Chatting. to which place
a British gunboat is now proceeding.
State Department officials say there is
no reason whatever to oattribute the present
uprising in China to the recent railway
projects. in which the United States is
Interested. In fact, these railways, as
now planned and under present con-
cessions, lie wholly outside of the
province of Szechuan. the seat of
trouble, the question Of ultimate ex
tension into that province having been
set aside for possible future considera
ton.

Twenty-eight of them were rescued by

TAXPAYERS BURDENS.


The grain growers Of North Dakota
could not have farmers Institutes be-
cause Governor Burke thought the ap-
preparations were in excess OF the
states income. In fact the governor
never showed much interest in the
farmers except about election time.
But the state incurred a 100000 bill
of expense in the Cowan impeachment
proceedings. The action was insti-
tuted by the governors lieutenants.
The taxpayers of the state will have
to foot the bill.
The farmers who were deprived of
farmers Institutes must help bear this
heavy burden.
North Dakota farmers who were
compelled to ask county aid to secure
seed grain will also be taxed to pay
this $4,000 bill--the result of the an
imosity and malevolence of some Of
the Burke henchmen.

CHAPLIN BOULEVARD.

@. J. Kenney grew reminiscent re-
Gently in discussion of the PROPOSE
ton to establish boulevards along the
river both north and south Of the city.
He gave out some information that will
refresh the memories OF the pioneers
and be- news to the newer residents.
In so Mayor Chaplin of Fargo staked
out q boulevard along the river south
on Fargo 81 q point beyond the Resser
farm. Later Major Darling expended
hundreds of dollars in grading and es-
tablishing a boulevard along the river
around his property. 1t was used for a
driveway for a long time until vandals
began to destroy his property when
the driveway was closed.
About the same time E. s. Tyler
laid out Oak Grove addition and spent
many hundreds Of dollars grubbing
and grading a roadway in that section
Of the city.
Major Keeney makes a suggestion
that will no doubt be favorably recelv-
ed by the members Of the park com
mission. He thinks the driveway south
of the city should be named Chaplin
boulevard and that on the north side
should be named after z. s. Tyler.
Attention is called to the fact that
Fargo's great booster, Mayor Chaplin,
has no fitting monument. No streets
or avenues are named after him, no
great blocks bear his name. His mind
first conceived the boulevard idea thir-
ty or more years ago-and 1t would be
a fitting honor to the memory of the
early pioneer to name the boulevard
for him.
1t is certain the park commission
would not offend the public by honor
ing either or both Chaplin and Tyler in
the manner suggested by Major
Keeney.

THE NEW LAWS.

Editor streeter of The Linton Rec
ord. member Of the legislature, has
the following timely comment:
Isn't it a fine situation that con-
fronts the people of this state regard
Ing the lack Of opportunity they have
for becoming possessed OF a knowl-
edge of the laws passed by the last
session of the legislature? For some
years an enterprising Bismarck gem
tlemen had gotten out a popular edf-
ton" of the laws of each session. This
was published several months before
the regular edition was printed. II had
paper covers, and was cheap in price.
That, however, has not been done this
year. It Is hardly believable. although
1t Ii a fact, that everybody is amenabIe
to a lot of laws they know nothing
about, and the provisions of which
they have no means of ascertafninp-
unless they pay SIS or more, according
to the length of the text of the statute
for certified copy. And 1t does no
good for the layman to go to a lawyer
and ask him about It, for the lawyer
is all at sea, just the same. as IL would
cost the lawyer about $1,000 to obtain
certified copies Of the more than 400
statutes enacted by the last legislatures
In Minnesota and other states the
laws are published in the newspapers
within less than a fortnight after the
last bin has been signed by the gov
ernor. It costs several thousand dol-
