following argument:
"Some members or the park board have
made efforts during the last four months
to Induce the city council by recommenda
tion to purchase mors land for park pur

"In my opinion the city of South Omsht
has parks enough, and It should be the'
duty of the park commissioners to matt

parks we have, not squander the money on
more tracta of land."
Mr. Barrett made an offer to the board
to sell his five-acre tract for $l,$no per
acre and later Included three more acres,
and offered the entire tract for $10,W)0.
The committee appointed by Chairman J.
H. Van Pusen found the price too high.
In the meantime an offer waa received
from E. J. Dee of eight acrea at $100 per
acre. At an adjourned session of the board
held Frlrtary evening Mr. Barrett offered
five acres and a roadway for $(1,000.
"From all appearances It seems to me
that a majority of the board Is In favor
of accepting Mr. Barrett's Offer, and rec
ommending the purchase to the city

ists on Monroe street. It Is two blocks
