"MISTAKE," SAYS DEVLIN
AUDITOR DISCUSSES BRIDGE
CHARTER AMENDMENT.
Declares Ho Drew Up the) Measure
Only as a Courtesy to the East
Side Push Clubs.
City Auditor Devlin denies that he
made any mistake in drawing up the
charter amendment providing for a
bond Issue of $450,000 with which to
build the new Madison-street bridge.
He says that he prepared the measure
solely as a courtesy to the East Side
Push Clubs which started the move
ment for the new structure.
Friday night at a meeting of the Ini
tiative One Hundred, Frank J. Perkins
made the statement that Mr. Devlin
had promised him that the amendment
would be so altered that it would
allow a bridge to be built higher than
the present structure. The amend
ment provides that the approaches to
the bridges shall conform to the estab
lished grades on Hawthorne avenue
and Madison street.
"I do not like to criticize any one,"
said Mr. .Devlin yesterday afternoon,
"but If there is any one to blame it la
not myself. I have no Interest what
ever in the amendment and drew It up
as a matter of courtesy. I don't re
member of ever having talked with
Mr. Perkins regarding the bridge.
Whe I drew up the amendment I en
deavored to embody the ideas of the
East Side organizations, and it could
have been changed at any time before
it went to the Council.
"Last November the measure first
came up and it contained the provision
that the approaches to the bridges
shall , conform to the established
grades on the streets the bridge will
connect Not a word was uttered
against that provision so far as I know,
although those interested had every
opportunity to examine it and have
changes made. That is why I am sur
prised that any complaint or accusa
tions should be made now.
"I first drew up the measure as an
ordinance. The Interested East Side
Push Clubs were furnished copies of
It. Later I drew it up as a charter
. amendment and more copies were sent
out of my office to those interested.
Mr. MoNary went over the amendment
for the last time and. although there
were no material changes in the meas
ure, we sent out still more copies. In
all of the three different forms the
provision In question was embodied.
"Was there anything more that I
could do? As 1 said before. 1 drew up
the bill to accommodate others and it
was placed 'n their hands. I had
nothing to do with It except to prepare
it. Complaint was made to me by rep
resentatives of the O. W. P. that' the
company was charged too much for the
use of the bridge. I explained to them
that I had merely drafted the bill and
that It was within the province of the
East Side clubs to make any changes
deemed advisable. Members of the
East Side Business Men's Club also
said that perhaps the charges were ex
orbitant, but no steps were ever taken
to change them. I drew up the form
of the bill and had expected that per
haps it would be changed in different
respects.
"I am not an engineer, and do not
know whether it is advisable either to
raise or lower the bridge. When I
prepared the bill I followed the word
ing of the old Morrison-street bridge
act as to the grade."

J. W. Cook, Retired Canneryman,
Sends Flour to Starving Chinese.
Four hundred sacks of flour, con
signed to the American Consul at
Shanghai, were shipped by steamer
from Portland last night to San Fran
cisco, where they will be forwarded
by transport to their trans-Pacific des
tination. This shipment Is the contri
bution of James W. Cook, a retired
capitalist, of this city, to the starving
Chinese. Mr. Cook was for many years
engaged In the salmon cannery busi
ness at Clifton, where he accumulated
a competency.
"I wish you would quote me a price
on 400 sacks of first-class flour," said
Mr. Cook, walking into the commission
house of Everding & Farrell yesterday.
"You will also please include In your
estimate the freight charges on the
same to Shanghai, China."
The cost was figured and a state

As an investment for people of moderate means, Spanton's subdivision on East Twenty-fifth
street (values considered) has more to offer than any other subdivision in Portland.
The only desirable "close in" subdivision that may behadfor $300alot payments $10amonth.
Spanton's office (270 Stark street) will be open today.
Ride out with us in the automobile.
We Sell Houses On
Installments
' If you wish to build a house, we are ready to furnish you the plans
and we will finish the house, even to the mat on the front porch, and
you may pay us on monthly installments.
We want to see two dozen houses in course of construction in SPAN
TON'S ADDITION within the next thirty days and .we are offering
installments so easy it oughtn't to be a .bit of trouble to get them in
motion. You can get a nice cottage for $25 a month installment.
We have planned the biggest investment treat of the month, considering the size of the invest
ment. There is plenty of money to be made in downtown frontages, but it doesn't do the
man in ordinary circumstances any good. It's more than he can handle. But this doesn't prevent
him from making money on a small scale.
,
The Spanton subdivision on East Twenty-Fifth street has more to offer the investor than any
other small investment in the city. It is accessible and it is convenient.
Different subdivisions in different parts of the city have advanced more than 100 per cent in the
last six months, and just as certainly will Spanton's Addition double in value before the year is out.
We are the original owners of the Spanton Addition, and we pass it over to you at .first .hands.
See the subdivision today (Sunday). Call at our office, 270 STARK STREET, and go out with
us in the auto. Takes 30 minutes, round trip.-
