This precautiOn. the chief points out, is just as necessary as that of keeping to the right, and if adhered to will result in the preven- ton of many accidents

tanned THE MONARCH.
The Part a Silver lnkstand Played In
a National Crisis.

Ihe pages OF history record many in
stances in which trivial incidents have
shaped the destinies Of nations. Ac-
cording to. Il story in the New York
Tribune. d small silver inkstand and
she quick wit of Il prime minister once
played an important part i'll the history
of the Netherlands.
William ILL.,, king OF the Netherlands,
was IL nan of violent and ungovernable
temper. Although in general a clever
statesman, he was inclined, for some
reason or other. to involve Holland in
the trouble that was brewing between
France and Germany in 1870. He was
deaf to the appeals Of his ministers,
who foresaw the ruin to the country
that war would bring.
Thorbecke. the prime minister, re-
solved to make one last attempt to
change his soverign's resolution. On
entering the royal presence Thorbecke
was greeted with a rough Good morn
ing. What's the news?"
Nothing particular, your majesty.
Only the people of The Hague are talk
ing Il great deal of nonsense about your
majesty"
About me"! exclaimed the monarch,
in wrath. What do they say about
me?"
We'll, sir" answered the old states
man, The Haguers declare that your
majesty has become stark. staring
mad." Before he could utter another
word King William, his face purple
with fury. jumped up and seized a
heavy silver inkstand, with the inten-
ton Of hurting it at the head Of the
premier. Fortunately a projecting an
gle of the inkstand caught in the table
cloth and dragged it off the table with
everything upon it. In the confusion
the discharge Of the missile was delay
ed for a moment.
Sire" exclaimed Thorbecke quietly,
IF your majesty hurls that beautiful
inkstand at my head The Haguers will
have much reason for their assertion!'
For a minute the angry king gazed in
silence at his minister. Then he grad
ually lowered his arm and replaced the
inkstand on the table. He walked to
one Of the windows and stood looking
out for q few minutes. Returning to
the table, he resumed his seat and
said, as if nothing had happened:
""And now tell me what you have got
to say"
An hour later, when the statesman
left, he carried with him the monarch's
promise to issue Il proclamation that
would declare the neutrality of Hol-
land.

Outside of Cavalier county it seems
as though there is hardly a county in

through the RED River Valley. that has
not got an Old Settlers society that
makes its annual midsummer picnic
the big event of the year, when the old
pioneers and their now grown families
unite in n big gathering, renew &C.
quaintanceships that have been formed
a quarter of a century or more ago and
enjoy the day to the fullest extent.
There is no need of a racing program,
the noise and jangle of the s%ideshows
of a county fair, just a days outing with
a well filled lunch basket, some sports
and a base ball game for the younger
of the old timers, while their elders
renew "reminiscences and listen to the
music of the bowery dance. Such a
gathering as this was held last week
over at Crystal in Pembina county and
why should not Cavalier county have
its Old Settlers Society with its big
picnic in the summer Think it over.

TEXAS CITY HAS PLANS
FOR CIVIC DEVELOPMENT.
Improvements to Consist of Street,
Sewer and Water Main Extensions.

The city plan committee of the San
Antonio (TeN.) chamber Of commerce
is having prepared at an expenditure of
several thousand dollars a comprehen-
sive and modern city plan, which will
care for the future development and
growth of the city for a period Of fifty
years after it has been completed and
the first steps taken to put it into eff
feet. This plan is being made by a
force of experts under the direction of
Myron H. West, city planner and
builder, Of Chicago.
In order to put this plan in operation
the voters Of San Antonio will be call
ed upon to vote a bond issue of $5,OOO,-
600, which will provide for street, sew
er and water main extensions, along
with other civic improvements. The
passage Of the bond issue is assured,
and several contracting firms from the
north and east have already opened Of
fees there. with a view Of bidding on
and securing contracts for the improve
ment work.
In the way of street improvements
for the present the work will consist
of repaving the principal streets in the
business section of the city and the
main arteries Of traffic or thorough
fares leading to the suburban residence
districts. 1t is expected that 100000
will be spent in this Work.
A bond issue of 100000. with an adj
ditional 100000 appropriated by the
city. has already been passed for wild
ening Commerce street, one of the
principal business streets, for a dis
lance of several blocks, from Alamo
street to Main plaza. The abutting
property owners have pledged them
selves for another $4,000 and the en-
tire work will cost about s5C&,OcO The
street at present varies in width. and
the fronting buildings will be set back
to make it a uniform width of sixty
five feet. The setback will range from
thirteen to twenty-three feet.

OF the city, may be found living in
the most unhealthy sections of the
town. Thus unconsciously the health
and joy of living Of many may be
daily and unnecessarily sacrificed to
presumed commercial needs.
Little thought has been given to the
creation of pleasant healthy residence
neighborloods and the safeguarding
of these neighborhoods by the COM
munity or the city itself. The fac
tory, the railroad, the business house.
have first call on locations most desir-
able for their particular uses.
The remarkable fact is that nearly
every one has come to feel that the
successive rise and decline of resi-
dence neighborhoods in our cities are
unavoidable and that even the very
location of residence sections is sec
ondary to every other interest of the
city.
In the lack of proper control Of the
laying out of residence sections, home
owners sustain annually a loss of mil
lions of dollars through the decline and
shifting of residence neighborhoods.
Today the home owner is generally
helpless to prevent the erection Of an
undertaking establishment Of a laun-
dry at his side or the erection of a tall
warehouse, cutting off all air and un-
shine from his family and children.
Rigid municipal control should be
employed in the exclusion Of undesir-
able commercial uses Of land within
the territory set aside for residence
purposes. We should not leave the sur
rounding of our homes to the selfish
private interests Of the real estate spec
ulator. We should not hazard the en-
vironment and surroundings of our
children to the mercenary interest of
the shifting ownerships of surrounding
tracts of land. The fronting of resi-
dences and placing Of outbuildings
should be so regulated as not to injure
surrounding homes nor maj the ap-
pearance of a neighborhood.
Safeguards Of this sort should not be
confined to the residential sections Of
the well to do. Applied to neighbor-
hoods Of workmen's cottages, they will
prove just as great a benefit to the
community and it's health and happi-
ness.
The function Of the municipality is
constantly being applied to new fields.
At first it was %broadened under the po-
lice power Of the city. It's successful
advance, often against bitter opposi-
ton. foretells the larger use of the
right of eminent domain, by which the
municipality for the public good may
extend much further its control over
the creation, development and main.
tenance Of residence property for tho
greatest good to the greatest number.

Observation-Disclosures Essential to

BY j.. c. NICHOLS of Kansas City.

0y y. -. OF Kansas City.
City planning in almost every phase
Of its wide modern meaning has taken
root in the public conscience. Yet we
have thus far done very little as COM
munities or as municipalities to prop
erly create. safeguard and guide the
growth Of home neighborhoods.
Much has been written about the
proper regulation and construction of
streets for residence property. But the
subdividing of land for residential pur-
poses in practically all American cities
is generally left to chance or the direc-
ton of selfish private interests. City
authorities have to some extent made
certain general requirements as to a
reasonable continuity and regularity
of streets. but little progress has been
made toward planning residential sub
divisions.
y few good residence neighborhoods
have been provided in almost every
city by the ordinary real estate devel-
opment. The period over which the
safeguards in these areas extend is
generally of mere nominal duration in
proportion to the life of the city and
covers only a small section. City con
troll in residence neighborhoods practi-
cally ends with the boundary lines of
the street and the boulevard. And to-
day, with only an occasional exception,
the individual owner in our residence
neighborhoods does whatever he pleases
upon the property which he owns
without regard to the interest of his
neighborhood or his community.
