HOW SHALL THE COURT HOUSE BLOCK BE BEAU
 TIFIED AND USED


 that it should all be fenced, kept as a park, and no horses or vehicles allowed on any part of it. This property belongs to the people of the entire county, and not to the city of Prescott, The county has no use for, and no provision for maintaining a park. The property was acquired for buslness-n ct park purposes. The city of Prescott now owns more park than it can maintain. The court house block contains 90,000 square feet, which is twice as much as is necessary for court house yard, and more than will be beautified and maintained as a park, if left to the county officials to attend to it.
 The magnificent building that has been erected on it is for the convenience and comfort of the officers and courts and people who have business with them. The grounds not needed for a courtyard should also be used for the convenience and comfort of those who have business with the officers and courts of t h e county. A large majority of those who have such business are farmers who come to town either on horseback or in vehic- les of some kind. Why should not this extra space be used for the people who own it, for their stock ndvehicles? How, then, can the block be used so as to protect the building, beautify the yard and furnish some space for the stock and vehicles of those who have business with the officers and court? 1 sug gest that a good, substantial cir cular iron fence be erected all around the building, thus leaving each of the four corners of the block for stock and vehicles and a circular roadway of thirty feet in Width all around the cou r t h o u e and the iron fence, which at no point would be nearer than sixty feet of the steps of the building. and on the second and Third Street entrances, would be seventy feet. In the four cor ners should be erected by the nice hitching racks, and no hitching to the fence should be allowed. The roadway should be made a model for road con- in the county, so that every overseer that comes to the county seat can see it. Besides, It would be an ideal place for the stock raisers of the county to meet for the purpose of parad- ng and exhibiting their stock upon the first days of the circuit or any other times that night be convient for them.
 I respectfully submit this plan Lo the court and the people for consideration.

NEGRO PLEADS GUILTY
Lee Mosley, Known as Tramp
Shine" Given Sentence by Judge
McClenahan at Bagley.
CONFESSES ASSAULT ON WOMAN

Attorney Nal D. Clark, of the Be-
midi law firm of Mcdonald & Clark,
returned this morning from Bagley
where he has spent the past week
attending legal matters in district
court.
Mr.. Clark has been the attorney of
Lee Mosley, the negro who it was
charged, committed assault and rape
on Mrs. Olson of Bagley late last sum-
mer, and who has been held in the
Beltrami county jail in this city dur
ing the past ten months.
Until this morning the negro
stoutly maintained his innoncence,
claiming that he was not within
many miles of Bagley at the time of
the crime upon the woman. But
when he discovered through his at
torney that the maximum penalty for
assault in the second degree would be
only five years, he decided that to
plead guilty would be the easiest way
out of the difficulty, and accordingly
did so.
He was Immediately arraigned be-
fore Judge McClenahan who is pre-
siding at the Clearwater term, and
after a short questioning was SEN
fenced to Saltwater.

Will Talk Tonight on How Mime
sofa Educates Her Children
Lecture Good.
DIR. VINCENT SPOKE TODAY
Head Of State University Addressed
Big Audience at Armory-Left
at Three-thirty.

With the lecture of Professor A.
w. Rankin on "How Minnesota Edu-
Gates Her Children" this evening
comes the close of University week
in Bemidji.
While the lectures of the week
have not been attended by very large
gatherings, none of them have been
entirely passed up, and those who
have been present and have heard a
few of the brilliant speakers who
have taken part on the various pro-
grams have been much pleased.
From a financial standpoint, the
$500 guarantee, which Bemidji was
requested to make before the Uni
versity week could be secured for Be-
midi. has a little more than been
covered, the small admittance fee
which was charged at the talk of DR..
Vincent this afternoon, accomplish
ing this.
The Armory was well filled this at
ternoon when President Vincent
spoke, and as before when this man
addressed Bemidji audience, he
held his listeners as if by a charm
during his talk.
DR.. Vincent arrived in Bemidji on
the early Great Northern train from
Grand Rapids, where he spoke last
evening.
He left Bemidji for Crookston i'm
mediately after his talk this after
noon, and this morning was spent in
attending the session Of University
week.

BEMIDJT VS.. ALL.NATlONS

At the Fair Grounds baseball park

relishes spice and variety with his
afternoon pastime will be treated to
a conflict that will be served with all
of the trimmings and thrills usually
attending upon a game with a dark
horse game. The All-Nation team
will meet the Bemidji Tigers on that
day.
The impending warfare is out of
the line hewn by amusement promot-
ers heretofore and unusual interest
has attached to the coming exhibi-r
ton, not only because Of the herald
ed ability of the Mixtures, but on ac-
count of the collection of creeds and
colors.

$500 FOR CAR Line
This Amount Pledged, Mayor Heads
List with $1,000; Others Ready to
Put Up Like Sum.
EXPERTS VISIT HAS EFFECT

More than $4,000 have been sub
scribed by Bemidji residents for the
erection of a three mile street car line
to begin at the cemetery and end at
the new box factory near Nymore.
Following the appearance here
last week of Thomas Roycraft, gener-
al manager of the Grand Forks street
railway system, who at an informal
gathering of the Commercial club de-
clared that his Investigation of con-
ditions here lead him to believe that
a street car line could be successfully
operated in Bemidji.
Mr.. Roycraft, thought the three
mile line would be advisable and said
the track could be laid at a cost of
$4,000 a mile and that four cars
would be needed at total cost of not
more than $4,000 and that the 9TH
er expenses would bring the total
cost up to about $4,000. Mr.. Roy
craft estimated the income of such
a line at $4,000 a year and figured
the total cost of operation would be
$14,545, leaving clean cut surplus
of $6,455.
With these figures in mind, Mayor
Malzahnl sought pledges from citi-
zens as to the amount of stock they
would purchase. The mayor head
ed the list for $1,000 and ]. P. Omich
signed for another $1,000. Charles
Nangle went down for $500, as did
also M. E. Smith and Fred E.. Brink
man. F. G. Troppman signed for
$500, the Given Hardware Co. $3.50;
A. H. Kleven 5000, John G.. Ziegler
and H. Gunsallis for a like sum and
several for amounts of 500 each.
