A long list of able speakers wa
called upon by Judge M. Q. Mllnly,
president of the North' East Side Im

berlain, Mayor Lane, W. M. Cake. V,
L. Boise. Joscnh Huchtal. Councilman
Rushlight, Hugh McOuire, Thomas O.
Greene, Dan McAllea ana C. K. llinry,
were called upon and all with one ex
ception pledged their hearty support for
the project. Mr. Ilency waa tha ex
ception. He asked that an effort be
made to enlarge and widen tha xteei
bridge and If that could not be don? le
himself would support a high hritluv.
But a committee had already Investi
gated that question and found U im
practicable.
Section Zs Important One.
Judge Munly had prepared statistics
auu iigurva to snow tne relative im-
Cortance of that portion or the city to
e directly benefited and whose gruw.li
within the last two or three years actu
ally demanded the construction of th
bridge. According to Judge Munly
ngures mure man one-rourth the popu
lation of the entire city of Portland
lies north of Sullivan's gulch. ,
Basing his estimate upon a total
population of 226.000 Inhabitants, Judge
Munly stated that 112,000 of them live
on the east side and SO, 000 north of
Sullivan's gulch. To give an idea ot
the growth of that particular section
since me steel bridge was built figures
were presented that showed ths popula
tion north of Sullivan's gulch In 189t
to be 6,Gfs2. The steel bridge waa com
pleted in 1889.
Nearly 20 years ago the steel bri-Ura
was built for but little more than o,00J
people. Now 00,000 people are compelled
to use that bridge or the llutnuide
bridge, built In 1 Stf3, just 12 times as
many peddle with the accommodations
increased only two times. In addition
to the fact that the population of Port
lund Including Alblna, East Portland
and West Portland In 1890 was but
64,791.

Dr. J. Whitcomb Brougher's fourth

The speakers were all laymen and

City's life. Among those who spoke
were H. W. Btone, T.W. MacDanlel, John
F. Carroll, Tom Richardson and Dr.
Brougher himself. During the program
Miss Ethel Shea, Miss Kathleen Law
ler and Mrs. Walter Reed sang solos.
Afterward Dr. and Mrs. Brougher shook
hands with the several hundred per
sons who attended.
"Everybody likes Brougher, even if
they are shocked sometimes by his
methods," Mr. Stone said, "and they be
lieve in his sincerity and know that he
is a man who does thlnirs. Tfta Y. M.
C. A. believes in him. He is an asso
ciation man. As soon as he came to
the White TeihDie ha made the Y. M
C. A. a part of his work." I
Mr. MacDanlel spoke on behalf of
the other denominations of the city and
me . Municipal - association. "I bring
you greetings. Dr. Brougher," said the
speaker, "from 125 churches and 26,000
members or constituents, who rejoice
wim you anc wisn ior your cnurcn and

Enormous Traffio on Bridges.
Mr. Munly's statistics also show that
the assessed valuation of property that
will be tributary to the bridge Is S23.-

a total or I4.Z6U.7S8 or permits Issued
in 1907 for the entire city embracing
dwellings costing between l,oVU to s.i
500, 3,:!33,288 worth were taken out
for dwellings on the east side.
Figures submitted by President Jos
selyn of the Portland Raywaya showed
that an average of 98,00 people cross
the bridges every day In tne street cars.
Of these. 43.000 cross the steel and
Burnside bridges. An average of 910
cars cross the steel bridge every day.
Part of these statistics were gathered
for the purpose of presenting them to
the war department in the hope that
the draws, the source of all this agi
tation for high bridges, may be regu
lated. Sign Petitions at Onoe.
In the numerous addresses that fol
lowed the presentation or the figures
every possible demand and advantage
for a bridge was discussed. The mayor
pledged his support. Hugh McOuire,
vice-president of the Commercial club,
promised to put the matter In best pos
sible light before his organization. W,
M. Cake will give his assistance.
The location of the bridge was not
discussed. That will be left to the
engineers. Petitions have been printed
and will oe signed up as quicKiy as pos
sible and then the council will be expected-
to call a special election to fall
on the same date as the general election
in June at which time the people of the
