"It may be j that the only thing 'to do b to carry ' tha appeal to Washington and procure .. the laauanea of ordere from, tha federal officials requiring rlvermen to respect ; the rlghta of others. : The county court, i Is answer to demands that hara been ; made for years past, recently Instructed . brldgemen to handle' tha bridges In a manner to obviate tha annoying delays; but the results are .not satisfactory.

Renewal- of the agitation for natter v ? conditions on" tha bridges has elicited expressions of opinion by many men ' Informed on shipping to tha affect that the service In Portland's harbor Is not " . up to date. In other cltiea situated like : Portland tha work of tnorlng barges and " logs Is dona by tugs constructed so aa to permit them to pass under all bridges without opening the draws, - Portland Behind the nates. For instance. In Chicago, , scores of bargea pass under tha drawbridges every ; day without delaying traffic and the - same la true In Milwaukee and Clove. ; 4 land and other places. Another method v- - V adopted there for tha purpose of avoid Ing useless opening Of the draws is the t'- use of tha dropstack. A number of J craft on tba Willamette river could ' easily paaa under tha bridges with the " I possible exception of tha steel bridge, which is a double-deck structure,' If Aha J drop stack were used. But among the t scores of 'tugs and steamboats In 'corn el mlsslop here not one hat auch a smoke ' i staok. ( .1 '.N;.. ,. ' v v-.; - V . "The fsot is," said T. O. Greens last ' 1 night, "our river craft used In harbor . work Is mostly out of date. Portland Is ... -i far behind other cities located on rivers ' . In this respect, and there ahould be such persistent agitation and such In ' slstent demands on the authorities te ' J, set In the premises that the rlvermen , would be compelled to bring their fleets' ' up to data." . ' i '; .,., Tag Servioe Aatlqaated. -' " inquiry aa to tha foregoing brought ' out tha fact that large, cumbersome ' ateamera are uaed for ordinary tow work In Portland's . harbor, which would be ' done In other places by tugs. A bridge tender cited in illustration of this that . In -the paet few days ha has swung hia . . J. draw about 1 tlmea every day for a V certain steamer of standard dimensions, and that each time tha ateamer had taken up stream or down stream a load mi- iwalj -thalsomajof the gasoline ' launches here conld easily bavsba'n ;' died It. vi, . ' "W'ere tha tug service up to date," said he. 'The frequent opening of the draws : .. for this steamer would not be Mecca j, " sary. If that towing company were ta V , . get modern tugs it would not only save the public much Inconvenience, but it ,. would also be better for the towing company. 'This. bridge requires only three mln- utes' to open snd close. This, plus the v .time consumed by the boat In reaching . the bridge after the draw opena. rapre . snts the total time needed for a boat -. to paas. If the' average time be five ' minutes for each boat, the. towing com- ' pany to which I refer causes the drew to be open at least minutes every 14 v, hours. - .

Practically all of the towing Is dons by stetmers of standard dimensions. . Inasmuch ss there Is a csr a minute ovsr ths Burn side street bridge during moat of the day. It Is essy to see that the deley eauaed by the towing bdats Is consider able. The . company of which I was speaking stops to ears a day, beside ths msny teams sod foot passengers.". , - Oeaa Trefne Vast Bother.; 'Men Informed on Portland's shipping Interests say that ths water traffic that eensuuiies- inseciiy s-principal uwe " commercial leadership the ocean traffic -is nearly all handled below ths draw bridge . Scarcely any of it comes above th steel bridge. snd not . enough to smount to much originates above any of tha others.

O. Oreene said: , . ' "I ' have Inquired , into ths matter aomewhat and am Informed, that the water commerce that comes above thb bridges Is not heavy. The - foreign traffic la handled below the bridges, ex cepting the lumber shipped foreign, snd that, it . Is true, - is loaded above the Madison bridge 'in gret ,prt . But properly built tugs would obviate de lays IB taking logs upstream and care by the pilots In not causing the draws to open too long before the boats reach ths bridges would correct most of the present evils." .... . 1 ' . .
