Lake County votera on November 4 will have a chance ta decide hether or flot they want L-ake County converted ,intcJ a foreat preserve.> If âThe voters show no interest in this special question on 'that day, anid permit the county to be converted into a foreat' presâ.ve just because they did NOT get out and express their sentiment, then as years go by ani as forest preserve taxes keep jumping ahead zý new lande are taken in and new help hirecl, voters must make no complaint! They must remember the fact now that, once tii.y lettii forest proserve BE creted, it NEVER can be withdrawn 1 It tain as is death, no is it positive that the expense and the taxes raised for forest preserve will in.érease year after year. asThis is no small matter; .-t is the biggest proposition that hasconrotedthevoerainmany years. On the face of it it appears rather insignificant. when you stop to think that in Cook County. when the foreat pre- serve was launched. the first expenditures called for $500,000 in Cook County and that the levy last year in that county Wa» six million dollars, you get àn ides of the powers of the Forest Preserve Park Board and the. increase expenses that tii.y Put upon thse tax payera. And Cook County Forest Preserve operates under tii same Illinois law the; Lakce County would operate under in case the movement'cqried here. The idea of converting Lake County into a play ground for automobilista and others from Chicago, seems like a very pretty piece of sentiment. But the question is, *does Lake County want to sisoulder thi terrible expps.e?" Are the. expenses 0* taxation not aufficiont now? Hava't the people been burdened enough without taing on a change of this character? Ail you have to do to realize the scope of the Forest Pre- serve Board is to look over the law which shows their powers. (It appears in the adjoining columns.) In the first place, (inder the present valuation, it shows ti-at the. park board createjd under this tax could raise $25,000 the firat year in Uike County and, there i. nothing to stop them raiaing more as time gots on. ,The. Jaw enaN« ea h.p"dgbourd tb coudaenay tra of wooded Iand. in Lake County duut àt »«m fit t. euH a format pue- serve. lit enablea tii board to- WUildwoadways, M&dwalka, etc., through these parka if i0ts fit, and dwha taezatly vW at tiey ame daingins Cook County now. It ailwa the board to bire policemnent, guarda, otç., it aflorwstiera to fence tii land, in fact it aliows themt to GO THE LIMITf eveu mnetendwaey than the. park boardd in Waukegan bau done cro Sa«tion. If Waukegan has had a taste of the ruthles. expenditure of money by the park board, LaIkè County wili certainly have a forceful illustration if the voters allow this foreat preserve proposition ta, carry. The Waukegan park board will b. pikers" couraed to the Forest Preserve Board in case this question carnies on November fourth.1 Votera should decide now whether they want the Forest Preserve created or not. If it is created, tiien the organuzation af the board allows and from that. time on forever and eVer, the, Forest Preserve Board continues in existence and nothing under heaven could get ti place from the organization. It w tthe opinion of this papr that the movenient te create thia distriict at thse present time when Lake County is facing a bond issue for the extensive improvemnent of roacis, as most uDn ' necessary and realiy fool-hardy. Lake County has had to im. crease expenses during tht pat fkw years and certainiy, cou- sidering tihe amount of money neceaaary to maintuin thia pro- serve movement, THAT ia ont thing which could be got aiong without for a long time. People of Lake County like pretty spots in the country but they do> not feel as a whole that it shouid be necessary to spend such a greàt amount of money in taking over lande, fencing them in and keeping tiem for picnic spots for Chicago automnobilisa or others, just for tht few weeks duaing the summer timte when they have occasion, to drive'into the coun- try and tiat is about ail tht Forest Preserve movement cails for or considers. Thia question is such a big ont that in case the votera allow the Forest Preserve to be created througia lack of intereat, it is a case of where they should forever after -hold their peace" and n ot complain about tie excessive amount of moncy whids the board of the preserve will ultimateiy rais. in Lake CounW It is ont of ffiose things just like the sun and moon: Once created it always keeps going. We aSed aýoad@ more "ui we need a foreat preserve!
