Landscape Artist Cleveland Gives Forceful Expression of His Views. Mr. H. W. 8. Cleveland of Minneapolis, the landscape gardener, who has designed the improvements for Omaha's park system, re- cently wrote the following letter, which was published in the Detroit Journal, in answer 10 opposition offered to- the establishment of an extensive system of parks and park w in Detroit: My Drar S and parks has never fa in every city in which I have had any share in the work of purk improvement. The oc sion is always seized upon by demagogues to assume the position of defenders of the laboring classes, on the ground that parks and boulevards ‘are needless and expensive luxuries for the benefit of the vich, which must add to the burden of taxation to be borne by the poor. And this in spite of the fact which the experience of eve clearly proved, that dircetly the reverse is true. © Phe strongest arzument that can now be adduced in favor of such improvements is, that they relieve the burden of fon by adding S0 largely to the value of adjacent property that only the rich can afford to pur- chase and hold it, while at the same time they render it so desirable that every portion is seized upon and occupied or héld by those whose means _enable them to meet’ the in- creased taxation and to crect costly resi- dences which add to the beauty of the im- provements “Thus they b nue to the city treasury provi constaut source of enjoyment, which is as free to the poor as the rich and of ten-fold more value to them. This, as I say, has been proved o i again, and yet the same argument con- ues to be urged in opposition —and the sat body of people who do not travel, and have no opportunity to see what has been done elsewher ily led to fear the ef- fect of expendiig so much money for what is presented to them as a needless luxury, but which in_fact is so valuable an investment that no city can afford to dispense with it. sewhere, the opposition s 50 stremious that many invaluable oppor tunitics were lost before the work was en- tered upon, 'and even whon it ws begun tho ark commissioners were at first so apprc ing thought X rant that failed to sccure desirable s, some of which they have since purchased af an enor- Ivanc they might have been t first, and others” have passed be- yond their power of purchase, In regard to boulevards we have had a sin- gularand interesting exp 0. The first effect of the original design for @ system of parks and connecting parkways, or boule- vards, was to raise the asking price for real estate on every street sclected for the pu pose so greatly that some of the most desi able routes huad to be ubandoned, and in others the intended width much restricted. But in less than two years from the time the first boulevard was” opened there were so mauy petitions from owners of prop on difre Nt streets to it made boulevards thav the park commissione adopted . rule which has since been strictly adhered to, that no petition would be considered in which the land required for widening the street w not given gratuitously. ‘The effect in increas ing the value of adjicent property has heen somarked and so0 enormous that petitions have continued to come in and in oneinstane anew boulevard has been laid out and con structed at great cost over what was waste land, the owners of which not only gave th land requived, but voluntarily offéred to pa the whole cost of construction, in unnual sessments for ten years, This arrangement makes it casy for them, as it creates an i diate demand for the property at a high while the city at the 1l be fully reimbursed, and is al- dy reaping the benefitfrom the increased taxable value of the proper All opposition has long sitce been silenc: Every citizen is proud of our park syst and if the question were now open of dolug away with parks and boulevards, on coudition of oring their cost to the city treasury, not a vote would be cast in its fa It is a curious, but not a singular fact, | however,that the very men who first opposcd | park construction aré the ones who now urge a lavish outlay for artificial decorations, such as greenhouses, fountains, ornamental struc- tures, which should never be introduced ¢ hus grown up thickly about the | parks and along the lines of the boulevards, | Such decorations will then be in keeping with the architectural surroundings and the cost of them will not be felt. But those who first opposed the park sys. tem still pose as the “friends of the and demand that these public 1 with all the luxur rich provide for themselyes in their private grounds. And this leads to the introduction of shams and cheap imitations of art, which are destructive of all true artistic taste, The first park that was constructed here was @ tract of thirty acres—then at the out ekirts of the city, but now overlooked by many very fine and costly houses. In nego- tiating for the land the park commissioners declined to purchase a portion which was very desirable, but was held at #15,000,which rice was deemed extravagant ghat hey did not feel justified in the®ex penditure, Two years later the resi dents in that vicinity petitioned that it should be added to the park, and offered to be assessed for its full value, ' It was then ap- praised by disinterested parties and pur- by the park commissioners = for $47,000, By same mall with this T send you a copy of Opposition to houle led to manifest itself me the chief source of reve- them which the game Sunday after- | ¢ city has | and at the same time | id of the ten | r, and wish to in the above our park report for the past call your attention to a view park opposite pago 21 | ve years ago every foot of he area shown in that'picture (except the distant hills seen over the bridge) was an impassable quag mire, without a tree or & shrub—the home of bullfrogs and bullrushes.
