10 THE MOItXIXG OREGOXIAN, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 18, 1909. 0. R. &N. WILL ASK BRIDGE BIDS SOON Proposed $1,300,000 Cross Way to Be Best and Most Convenient. DRAW TO OPEN ONCE DAILY Average Swing Jf Bridge Will Be Cut Donn 75 Per Cent Over Present Conditions, Today's Structure Open 0 Times. Plans are being; laid by the O. R. & N. 'Company to Invite bids early next month Ifor constructing the foundations for the proposed $1,300,000 railroad bridge at Ore gon street, replacing the old Steel bridge. The type of the bridge Is such that, it lis estimated that the upper deck, -which will be used by streetcars, vehicles and .pedestrians, -will not be required to be open more than an average of once each flay. Statistics compiled recently by the totreet railway management disclosed the rfact that the draw of the Steel bridge, (which the proposed structure will re place, is being opened as many as 60 times lin 24 hours. I Bridge Modern In Detail. I The bridge, when complete, will repre sent one of the most modern and heaviest structures In bridge building. It will ac jcommodate a loading equal to that of the . P. & S. railroad bridge at St. John, (combined with that of the proposed Broad, iwijr bridge at Portland. Its weight will (be something like 8(100 tons, or will ex ceed, approximately, the combined weights tof the Morrison street, Burnside street, Hawthorne avenue (Madison) and present Eteel bridge, by 1000 tons. In considering the proposition of build ling a new railroad bridge, the railroad teompany had three cardinal requirements ko meet. , First To build a bridge giving the nec essary advantages for railroad purposes. jThls pertained to alignment, grades and location. Second The requirements of highway traffic. It being required to devote an entire deck of liberal dimensions for this purpose alone. Such a deck to be placed at sufficient elevation above the river to afford the minimum amount of dis turbance to highway traffic, due to" the passage of river boats. Third The necessity of navigation; se lecting an opening of sufficient width and so located In the channel as to facili tate the safe and rapid passage of boats. The merits of the proposed structure were thoroughly investigated and the rail road satisfied itself with the superior inerits of this open " over that of any other type. The mechanical perform ance of this bridge is said to be almost Ideal. The spans are 31 feet wide center to center of trusses. Between the trusses of the upper deck a clearance of 32 feet Is provided for streetcars and automo biles. On the outside of the trusses are suspended cantilever roadways and s sidewalks. These are to be used for teams and pedestrians. Clearance Is Beneficial. This gives a clearance for teams of 34 feet and pedestrians 10 feet, making a total clearance for highway traffic 66 feet. The width of the bridge will be approximately 74 feet. For streetcars, antomoblles and teams there is a clear ance of 66 feet The Grand avenue via duct gives for the above 36 feet and the Union viaduct 40 feet. These clearances should be particularly interesting to the public, as it can readily be seen the im mense amount of traffic this new bridge will accommodate. Observations of the traffic across the present Steel bridge show for a 19-foot clearance between trusses and 7-foot sidewalks, the follow ing: VPPF.R DECK TRAFFIC FOR 14 HOVRS. Ptretrar 1R0O .Automobiles 1R1 (.'arriages 3iD I.iftht wfiitonn . 8HS Jlcuvy wagons V ." 3'edtrliui! 8000 LOWER PECK FOR 24 HOURS. Train movement 63 Another cardinal feature of the new railroad bridge is the independent move ment of the lower deck or railroad bridge relative to the highway deck. This lower deck will give a clearance of 72 feet above low water, and will allow the pas- . sage of all river boats during the greater part of the year without interrupting the highway traffic. Another advantage which will particu larly interest the public is the fact that the west approach gives liberal access to Glisan and Third stroets. The east ap proach embodies the same advantages on ; Oregon and Adams streets. This Is con sidered a very Important feature for the bridge, as it facilitates a rapid and commodious access and entrance to this I structure. HE1GHO ELECTED PRESIDENT 'Heads Idaho Northern as General Manager. WKISER, Idaho. Dec 17. (Special.) . A telegram received last night from Kew Tork from Colonel E. M. Height), of this city, says he was that day elected presi dent of the Pacific & Idaho Northern Hallway, which runs north from Weiser 76 miles. Colonel Heigho has been vice-president and general manager of the railroad for nearly five years, but about four weeks ago he resigned and his successor was elected. He went to Kew York, where the Eastern stockholders of the road elected him president and general man ager. It is said the railroad has been pur chased by the "Weyerhaeuser Interests, who have large timber holdings a few miles from the terminus of the road, and that It will be extended to their hold ings and on to a connection with the Northern Pacific. The action of the Eastern stockholders or purchasers is not clearly understood here. LAYING OF WATER PIPES Writer Favors Plan to Pay Cost Out of Common Fund. PORTLAND. Iec 12, To the Editor.) I u disappointed on reading an editorial In ltu Friday's Oreftrmlan to learn of the lukewarm support given the proposed change In th wysiem of lay trie the water mains, a Question which Is t be submitted to a vote of the people next February. To most people who have made a careful study of the situation, a change from the now existing system la considered most essential, and It Is neceary that the movement should have the hearty support otf all. During the lat two year the city has made great progress In putting down hard-surface pave ments, and unVpfw a change la made In the rye em of putting In the water mains, fur f th rr advancement will be seriously blocked. The Oregonian'a principal objection seems tt ! fee that large tracts of land held for apecu ' satlosk will to praetly besjaflted U tils oily lays the water mains through, or past the property. But if one ooiupults one of the pro posed amendments, it will be found that the Water Board will not lay these mains unlet the revenue amounts to 6 per cent of the cost of the work. Besides, in a large num ber of the tracts platted recently, the lots have been purchased by people who are not burdened with wealth, and they are as much entitled to get a supply of water as the peo ple who live on Washington street. Heretofore, where the water mains were laid by the property owners in a great many of the tracts, and which mains were after ward acquired by the city, either by" purchase or gift, it has been found that the pipes were too small and the system badly arranged, so that the money was utterly wasted. An abundant Supply of pure water is the most necessary commodity furnished to the people of a city, and the consumers should be dealt with generously and without stint. I have always strongly objected to having meters in private houses. What difference does It make if a neighbor gets a few more gallons of water than another neighbor. The more water a community uses the healthier will be the people. To hear some people talk, one would think water Is like attar of rosea to be doled out by the drop. Taking the initial cost of the meter and the oost of Installation, and also considering that the life of a meter is only goock for five years, also the army of clerks that are re quired to read the meters and the vast clerical system in the office, it will be found that the meter system is a very costly business1. The amount of money wasted in this system every month would lay a great many yards of pine. The present Water Board is the best one that ever ruled In this city. The members "de vote a great deal of time to its affairs, should know what Is best for the city, and I under stand the& are unanimous in thinking that the proposed amendments should pass. LEWIS RUS3ELL. COASTING VICTIM DIES FRANK SMITH PASSES AWAY, tXABLE TO BIO GOODBYE. Weeping Mother, After Xight Vigil, Sees Son Expire as Dp.wn of Day Arrives. "With his mother, Mrs. F. G. Smith, and a special nurse watching at his side, Frank Smith, victim of the bob sled crash on Hall street December 5, passed peacefully away at 5:20 yes terday morning: at the Good Samaritan Hospital. Since Thursday, hope had practically been given up buT all day and most of the night Mrs. Smith sat up with her son. At intermittent periods he was able to recognize her and a half smile flitted over his face, unable to speak. Yet he showed he was con scious of noise and he was removed to a room away from the car-tracks and hospital sounds. Thursday his temperature rose to 105 and physicians expected the end at any moment. At night there was a drop to 103. It was hoped he' would live through the night. He did, . but just before dawn showed at the win dow, young Smith gave a half-movement and was dead. The boy was 16 years old. He stood well in his studies at Lincoln High School and three years ago was elect ed president of his class when gradu ating from the Shattuck School. At both schools he was popular. The interment will be held Sunday at Rlverview Cemetery. The re mains were removed yesterday after noon to the Smith home, 362 Four teenth street. According to physicians Smith died as the result of reconstruction going on in the brain matter which his con stitution was unable to stand. When operated upon. Smith lost one and a half ounces of brain matter through a gash in his head several inches long, caused by being thrown against a telephone post from the capsized and overloaded bob sled. No blame is at- tached to any member of the luckless 13 who comprised the party. This is the . second death, Miss Onetta Serra being killed instantly on striking the post. Seven other mem bers of the party were more or less seriously injured but all are on the road to recovery. JOHNSON GETS 60 DAYS LIQUOR LAW VIOLATOR'S SEN TENCE IS REVISED.

Judge Bennett revised hie sentence yesterday morning, announcing from the bench that the new penalty for Johnson would be" 60 days in jail. This sentence will be appealed from. Attorney Seneca T'outs, appearing for Johnson, filed notice of appeal and Louis Trummer. agent for Lemp' 9 beer, went on Johnson's bond to perfect the appeal. Adding this sentence to the cases i ready appealed by Johnson and pending in the Circuit Court, the total penalties Incurred by Johnson and still unfulfilled are J300 In fines and 120 days In prison. The date for hie, trial In the Circuit Court is January 19. The last case appealed from was that In which he wa sentenced by Judge Ben nett on two different charges to J100 fine and 60 days in jail. This case still re mains unlrled on the Circuit Court docket. In contrast to this, Henry Hoff man, who conducts a restaurant on East Clay street, near Hawthorne avenue, who was arrested in September for the same offense and who was sentenced in the Municipal Court and appealed to the Cir cuit Court, has been tried in the Circuit Court and fined $150.

POLICE PROTECTION NOW With Advent of Score Xew Men on Force January 1, Outlying Sec tions of ' City Are to Be Benefited at Once. t Mayor Simon and Councilman Ellis yesterday afternoon took an automo bile trip through the Mount Scott dis trict, much of which was taken into the city limits recently. At Laurel wood, they were met by a committee composed of R. Duval, H. R. Black, William Woodham, V. R. Heath and P. F. Strand, and were shown through the various sections for the- purpose of seeing the needa of the territory. It is the Intention of the Mayor to give police protection to the district the .first of next year, as about 20 policemen will be added to the force January 1, and it Is the desire of the Mayor that the outlying sections shall receive some benefit at once from, this 'addition. Fire protection is also asked and it is probable that the administration will purchase a lot in a convenient place, with a view to building an engine-house at the proper time. The people have provided a volunteer de partment. Tlth which they are now trying to protect property, and which has at various times rendered effi cient service, but the time is rapidly approaching when modern equipment must be installed. Lighting Problem Important. The lighting problem is being met by -the administration, and 18 arc lamps haye been ordered installed in various sections of the district. These will add greatly to the comfort, con venience and safety of the residents, who are fortunate in getting so many at this time, as the city la proceeding very slowly and cautiously on this subject. The bill for public lighting next year will aggregate close to $118,000, and there is a plan on foot to redis tribute the lamps already installed, so that all sections of the city will be treated alike. The question of naming streets and numbering houses is also being agi tated in the Mount Scott district. The street which is called Holgate in the old corporate limits of Portland is known both as Lincoln and Sellintr in the new territory. These . conditions prevent the people affected from re ceiving their mail by carrier. City Engineer Morris is at work on a new, numbering system, which is calculated to remedy all of the evils that exist in the city at this time When this is put into operation, it will solve the Mount Scott rroblem, and the residents there will be able to secure from the Postoffice De partment delivery service.

I Meanwhile Courts and Clerks Rave to Crowd Into Inadequate Quarters. , Although the County Courthouse is becoming more and more congested, the work of erecting the steel frame work for the east wing of the new building is still delayed. The archi tects, in their speci Meat ions, called for a kind of steel which can be purchased at but one place in the United States. When the order was placed prompt delivery, could not be had, according to the Pacific Iron Works, the contract ors. The County Court has refused to grant an extension of time, and this firm will forfeit $50 a day for every day after November 29 last until the steel is in place. Not a beam has yet been laid. . although Contractor Lundstrom completed the excavation and concrete foundation several months ago. The Pacific Iron Works asked that the time for completing the erection of the steel framework be extended to February 1. If the steel is not in place until that time, the contractors will forfeit 3150. Although the court stenographers were already In cramped quarters ' at the Courthouse, the County Court is sued an order a few days ago that sev eral of them would have to divide their space with County Clerk Fields. So Deputy County clerk Lull has been moved Into the room formerly occu pied by Sholes and Person, on the southwest side of the building. Official Stenographer Rogers shares Circuit Judge Gantenbein's chambers, but with the crowding of their small room there is scarcely room for the other four re porters in the Courthouse. In addition to the crowding from the building of the County Treasurer, Coun ty County School Superintendent, Dis trict Attorney and Grand Jury, and the inconvenience to which Judge Gatens is put of trading rooms with Judge Bronaugh whenever a jury trial is held, there' are but two Jury rooms, so that whenever three juries are out it is necessary to lock one of them in a courtroom. Further than this, there are sleeping-quarters for but one jury, so that If two remain out over night they must make themselves as com fortable as possible in chairs. ELLIOTT URGES INTEREST DECLARES PORTLAND DOES NOT APPRECIATE ROSE FESTIVAL. Hill Lines Give $1000 ' Cash and Pledge Energetic Advertising Campaign for Project. Hill lines will give $1000 in cash to the general fund of the Rose Festival for next year's celebration and, in addition, have made their official promise to con duct an advertising campaign as exten-. Five as that during the Lewis & Clark Exposition or the A-Y-P Fair of" last Summer. This means 'that 2,600.000 pieces of literature, the number got out in boosting the Seattle show of 1909, will be duplicated during the next few months In behalf of the Rose Festival, at a cost running into thousands of dollars. The cash contribution came at a most happy time, for President Elliott, of the Northern Pacific, is in the city and ex presses his. hearty approval of the plan. In an interview yesterday afternoon Pres ident Elliott said:, "I regard the Portland Rose Festival as the greatest exhibition of its kind ever held in America. It has been my good fortune to be present at every one of them held so far, and I have noted the progress made each year. I know of nothing in its field that approaches it and Portland may count on me as being one of Its guests next June. "Why is It that your own city does not show more enthusiasm about this annual event? Tou don't seem to know what you have. I have seen a good deal of the United States, but the Rose Festival is in a class by itself. And if your city does not make the most of Its opportuni ties. I shall feel that I have underesti mated the public-spiritedness of Portland. But this will not in any way prevent us from bending every energy to bring people from, the East out here." President Elliott -notified the Festival that he was having all publicity matter in connection with the show of 1910 sent to him personally. This notice came with a letter from Assistant General Pas senger Agent Charlton announcing the gift of $1000 and the big advertising cam paign.

(To the Editor.) In the local column of this rooming's Ore- gonian mention in made of my discharge from the Dark service statin r mat l re fused to return to work after rive months" lay-off without receiving; pay for all that time. The ore eo man nae been misinrormoa and I bear permission to state the facts. On the first day of last July I had so fax recovered from an accident received at the City Park while in discharge of my duty as to be able to resu m e work and h av ever since been willing: and able to perform the duties of park policeman, ana nave ire quently asked permission to do so. The only condition. I required was that, if I do the work satisfactory I hold the job. The super intendent said he thought I was able to do he work and the Civil Service .Board vir tually admitted the same, and generously offered to permit me to return to wors: pro viding I release the city from all salary due and owing to me. This I declined to do for two reasons: First I consider It unfair, unjust and dis honorable to require me to purchase at any price a position that justly and rightly be longs to me. Second The Civil Service Commission has no authority to regulate my salary or to say what time I shall or ah all not be paid for. I waa working under the Park Board and it was for them to say whether or not I should receive salary for such time as I was unwillingly detained from work. W. J. IDLEMAN.
