Major General Irwin McDowéll,” ‘who for many years the military comman- :r of this department, and at one time a member of the Board of Commission- ere of Golden Gate Park, gave much of his time and talents to the work of beau- ing the Presidio and rendering it ac- sible to the citizens of San Francisco. uch zeal in the behalf of an enter- o develop an independent water ¢ for Golden Gate Park excited 1 and resentment {p the management of the Spring Valley Water Works. | RESIGNS ' HIS: POSITION. L. t of this resentment ‘General McDowell was embarrassed by inquirfes from Washington as to the ‘propriety of n army officer engaging’in, duties per- 1ing to the management of a city park. While this embarrassment caused his ress ignation as a Park (Jommissioner, he did not relax his efforts to ‘beautify the Pre- | sidfo. The present roads through ~“the | reservation, which connect with the.road- , w. y leading.- tg: the | {'park and ocean, to the enterprise and public spirit of Gen- eral McDowell. ” After an interval of many years Major Ge i S. B. M. Young, an able army |ofticer, who is famillar with every mead- | ow, stream and knoll of the Presfdio res- | ervation, having. ggquired® that famillar- by a-prolonged tour of duty at, the t, was assigned to duty as commander of the department. He gave appreclative audience. to public spirited citizens, and | tmerpr(sh)g subordinates, who were im- | pressed ‘with the natural attractions .of | the: Presidio. - He also appreclated’ whdt General McDowell had done for the, peo- | ple of the city and readily seconded ‘sug- | gestions for an extension of the improve- | ment on the lands reserved by the Gov- ernment. General Hughes, another army officer of renown, is now the department tommander and is taking a deep interest in the subject of‘the improvement and adornment of the reservation. Last March Major General Young.re- ‘ceived advices from Washington that the War Department was favorably inclned to_the improvement of the reservation. Thereuporr an order was issued by Gen- | era®Young directing Colonel J. B. Rawles, | commandant at the Presidio, to. take up the general subject of the improvements with the assistance of Major Benjamin H. Randolph and Captain Willlam G: Haan, | Arti.lery Corps, the order belng. atcom- panied by coples of the correspondence had by General Young with Mr. Pinchot, forester of the Bureau of Forestry, REPORT OF BOARD. The board thus constituted.by General Young met from time to' time and care- | fully considered the matters laid before | it and in a report of recent date set forth facts as follows: General Irwin MecDowell commenced the | work of bullding roads and planting trees in | the reservation in the eafly eighties. Between | 1888 ani 1897 by far the greatest portion of the | trees. nearly 100,000, were planted at a cost | of §58,000, which was appropriated by acts of | Congréss “‘for the construction and repair of | the roads and walks leading to the United | States National Cemetery on the reservation of | the Presidio of San Francisco, planting trees | and shiubs and for the protection and fencing | of zaid roads and reservation. in which ths metery is situated, and also for the preser- vation of thé same and its springs of water used for irrigat!ng the pcst and cemetery from drifting sand and for the construction of a roadway connecting Fort Mason reservation with sald reservation and cemetery.’” The appropriation was reduced to $10,000 and | finally to $5000, which I8 now expended entireiy | in building of a stone wall along the southern boundary- of the reservation. The setting out ‘or trees stopped in” 1897 and the nursery for raising tHem ‘abandoned. ~The area covered by forests is about 420 acres. = Nothing has been done toward regulating the growth ot trees excepting during the past year. During that time a good deal has been accomplished between avenue A and McDowell avenue in the way of thinning out by post labor alone. *| Very little has been done to the roads and they all need repair in the way of a top dressing of sses the Presidio of San | | to the beath as & park feature [ City Park and C}ff House - drives, | companies of coast artillery. st o exeapting: short portions of MeDawell avenue’ and avenue A. There are mo funis avallable:for making necessary repairs of roads or for4saving the existing growth of trees. The watér supply is inadequate, but steps are béing taken to improve it MAKES RECOMMENDATIONS. * Continuing- the hoard, in its- report, made the following recommendations: ‘That a public entrance be made {nto. the reservation: at the lend of Broadway, and a park: road be lald out connecting said street' with the post roads. ‘That a road be lald out between Howe and lower McDowell avenue. That 'a park road be lald out from the southern_junction of McDowell and A avenues lo Baker's Bencon, Besides offording access is road wduld communicate with the present target Battery | ' | range in the southwest corner of the reserva- tion and the waterworks establisbed there. Ultimately connection might be made with m- T\\fin!lelh and Twenty-fifth avenues. That a road be laid out between the qUAF- {ermaster's swreqouses. at, the clty strebts, near ~“That, the swamp fiand: north butldings and cemetery be filled joad constructed along the foot of the bluff o Fure Winfield Scott: PR 11 That a_tract of lami be rem'm on sides of B avenue and between that avenue | and lower McDowell -avenue for the ‘erection | of quarter®, barracks, etc., for' 1! lun =ix That the ground ‘used by the golt club, the target range and the open spaces'in the viciri- ity“of Battery Howe and the General Hospital be Jept clear for drfll purpeses and camping Erounds. That the General = Hospital - and ' National Cemetery be restricted to the grounds now oc- cupled by them. That the plan already adopted for the en- | largement of the post proper:be considercd in | all plans for future improvements. That the stone wall along the southern boundary be completed and -an ornamental iron | fence be erected along the eastern boundary ¢ the reservation: also an ornamental fence th rear of Batteries Lancaster, Cranston and Godfrey. REGARDING WATER SUPPLY. A very recent analysis of the water of Lobor | | | | | | Creek by a compe expert—Professor Ed mund O'Neill, University of California—shor that with thorough protection of the water- sheds of the creek, which can be attained, and | the use of fikers, a_dally supply .of 2,000,000 | zallons of drinkable water can be Secured | from Lobos Creek. In view of the increasing needs of the reser- vatidn the board recommends that the lanc on the “south side of Lobos Creek be purchased, 0 as to protect the watershed and contrel the | entire water supply from that source, That. the strip of land west of the target range be purchased so that the target range | may be usad without danger to life if Its use as:such range Is to be continued. That, the ground in rear of Batteries Lan- caster, Cranston and Godfrey be graded. That the forests-be thinned out at once in | order to =ave the best paft .f the growth, nd that the planting of trees and shrubs be tematically resumed, to scrven the batteries, ‘for ornamental purposes, etc. For this pur- e n nursery for trees should be at once established and maintained. | .| deal’ may* be accomplished by post { priation of $10,000 by | secure an allowance of money | ists. ester to supervise the work-of regu!nnnl the forests be dccepted and that the work be started as soon as possible. The board thinks that the beginning already made Is in the right direction and that a g | nd prison labor and through the quartermas- ter's department. hese means are not sufficient, however,/ for thinning out the trees in a reasonable length of time. The board recommends that an appro- “ongress be asked for this year to be expended under the direction of the post commander of the Presidlo for the care, preservation, thin- ning and pruning of the present forest growth, the planting of additional trees, shrubs and grasses and the repair of the roads on the Presidio Reservation. Senatgrs Perking and Bard and Repre- senta s<Loud and Kahn should be urged to keep in touch with the War De- partment and to use their influence to carry out the general plan of Presidlo improve- ment. Vast sums of money have been expended on the reservation for fortifi- cafigng and guns; but the disbursement for adornment of the grounds has been very - light in comparison with the amounts expended on otber military res- ervatiofis.
