today, but there are several places just north of Melville that are giving the engineers considerable concern. Men and material were rushed to the new threat ened territory and are huwying the work of topping the levee to prevent an over flow.
 Only three women remain in Melville tonight, the other portion of the town s female population having been taken out when the flood situation became alarming. Most of the men, however, remained to aid in the fight against the water. Owing to the scarcity of labor, many of these are handling shovels and picks side by side with common day laborers.
 The negroes who are being given free government rations have refused to work.
 President Richards of the Atchafalaya levee board. made an inspection of the levees in this district today and reports that with the exception of those near Elba, he found them in good shape. The work of topping the entertainments is progressing as fast as the scarcity of labor will permit.

Schmahl Tells of STRUGGLE


Mr.. Young spent most of his time
arguing for the election Of the fed
eral judges. julius A. Schmahl said
in part:
Standing here today amidst the
glory of all southwestern Minnesota,
and particularly of Redwood county
and Of Redwood Falls, my mind re-
verts backward for period of nearly
thirty-five years, when the first agi-
tation was commenced for parking
this entire tract, and making it a
summer place for countless thous-
ands yet to come.
Something over ten years ago an
impromptu meeting of citizens was
held for discussing another project.
During the progress of that discus
sion some one suggested the feasibil-
ity of erecting a dam above the
bridge. and creating an artificial lake,
the extension of the imaginary park
system, and a place for genuine re-
creation to all that should be in
search of the same.
81 can recall the names Of H. A.
Baldwin, C. Fred Thompson, F. L.
Warner, A. G. Burmeister and @. L.
Dornberg as being the committee
selected to put through that project,
and having been closely associated
with them in an advisory capacity ]
can recall the time and private money
they gave to the enterprise, fighting
Litigation through courts, cheering
! the people to sustain them, and keep
| ing up the good spirits, until with
the thousands of dollars spent by Mr.
Burmeister, and the two joint notes
which were afterwards redeemed by
the issuance of the city park bonds
the enterprise was carried on.
II can recall also group Of citi
zens who gave their time and a whole
| lot of money into that boat associa.
ton from which they never once
realized dividend, but frequently
were obliged to meet assessments.
1t was at the completion Of the
/ first stage of this work that the parl
project extension was once again re
vived.
With the last revival of the pro.
| ject there came an earnestness o.
effort and tone, and the move wa
never permitted to expire. III. M
4 Hitchcock, believe, conceived tn,
idea that with the 50th anniversarl
Of that noble old war governors in

| the state to step in and show som,
mark Of appreciation Of what Gov

falls were named, had done.
