With th. election , over and ' the question of. the presidency settled for fbtir years more, the people of Portland, ro have time to turn their attention to municipal affairs. The matter of a pew bridge across the "Willamette ap pears to be the question that is most in the publio mind. That Portland roust have some ad ditional means of transportation across the river appears r be admitted Jay everybody. But there" is a good deal of. difference of . opinion as to what this means sffall be. Ralph Modjeski, the expert employed by the city. In his report to the city council and the mayor, favors the bas cule type of bridge. His, opinion is coincided in by many, but there are not a few who oppose the lift draw struc ture: Sbhie of them object to ' the pro posed location of tbe bridge. Others favor a suspension bridge in place of the bascule type, while there are still others who hold that the best thing wouia oe a tunnel. The rapid growth of the city, and the present congested condition of bridge traffic, seemingly make it Im- ?eratlve that a new bridge of some ype, or a subway, shall be constructed In the near future. The only question la what is best for Portland as a whole? l he Journal here quotes prominent men living , on elfher side of the river In reference? to Engineer Modjeskl's report. Takes Judicial View. Judge M. O. Munly takes a somewhat judicial view of the matter. "I think," he said thla morning, "that there is no doubt that Modjeskrs plans are practicable. The onlv trouble is that these plans call for piers In the river, double piers on each side, and the question Js whether or not they Will prove an objectionable ob struction to navigation. But that is a i MORE DISTRESS FROM STOMACH OR ANY DYSPEPSIA AFTER TODAY Journal Readers "Who Suf fer From Any Form of Stomach Trouble Should Try This. When your stomach is weak or lack ing in Gastric Juice, anything that you . l l. . i I will on your stomach, raise the bllip and acids; to cover your, food like oil. on water), causing Indigestion, Dyspepsia. Stomaohr nervousness and Belching of our rolsons,, which produce foul odors, nasty .taste, bilious headache, ' Heart burn, Intestinal griping and make you an object of mlaery. This Is stomach trouble which can not bs overcome with ordinary digestive medjclnes. It is caused bv fermentation of your food, which will be . remedied' St once by Pap's's Diapepsln, a preparation pleas- . ' !

Indigestion Is a result, not a cause of your trouble. If the Btomach is sour and unhealthy, your food becomes tainted, and thafs what is causing the Indigestion and gas on stomach and other miseries. Pape's Diapepsln is an Antacid, most powerful digestive and thorough regulator for weak stomachs. These Trlangules will digest any kind of food you eat and will cleanse the stomach and Intestines in a natural way, which makes you feel line five minutes afterwards.

Put your Stomach in full heal t 'a and by tomorrow-you will forget tho misery of Stomach trouble. Tour case Is no different from many others. It isn't Btomach Nerves or Catarrh of ths Stomach, or Gastritis, or Dyspepsia. It la Food rotting Food Fermentation that's all and takes about five minutes to overcome, 1 ;, . mere matter of detail. The council specified no particular kind of a bridge, the only requirements being that the bridge must be of a certain heighth and In a certain Dlace. "The plan of Modjeski' is in view and I think everybody believes it will be adopted. Or course, all piers are an obstruction to navigation.' The war de partment has this last say as to whether those proposed are objection able. That is for the United States government to say." "I think It Is all a mistake to spend such a large amount of money down In that part of town." said C. K. Henry. It is abwird. Ir we are going to spend the money, it should be for a tube. And we ought to fix up the bridges we have now; put them in a state of efficiency. The steel bridge could easily be . fixed up so that it would be much more efficient than It now Is. I certainly think we ought to have the tube, too. We must have more facilities for crossing the river. Fully 85 per cent of the people come across the river in the streetcars. My Idea Is that the city should bond itself for the needed amount of money, say for 25 or 30 years, and make the streetcar company pay it back." Swlgert Denies Story. C. F. Swlgert is indignant over a stui - published to the effect that he appearpd before the board and, on be half of the Port of Portland, opposed the bascule type tit bridge as an ob struction to navigation; "1 never was in opposition to the bridge, either officially or personal! y," he said this morning. "That is the way some fools always get things. The man that wrote that story might as well have remained in his office to do It, for he merely wrote what he .thought would make the most sensa tiofial storv, without any regard to the facts. ' "I stated distinctly that I wis not present officially, and I never opposed the bridge. 1 did say that if there was to be any objection to the bascule bridge. It would be. better to have it develoned' now than later. But the Port of Portland Is very glad to be relieved of any responsibility. "I myself think- the bascule bridge plan la a very good one, and the loca tion selected is a good one. If we are going to have another bridge I believe Mr. Modjeskl's plans-should be followed. He knows his business and the city can't do better than to take his advice In the matter." McXenns ravors Basoule. Francis I. McKenna. although he has personally favored a subway, is willing to submit to the Judgment of the ex pert. . ., , "I am not a bridge expert, he said. Tint met mv ludement UD against that of Mr. Modjeski. I have ad- vocatea a suoway, uui mi. .uuji says it . Is not practicable, and I am willing to take his word for it. "Bui we must get better facilities. If ' we can't go under the river, we mint n nvr it. of course, a bridge Is bound to be more or less of an ob structions to navigation, out we can get around that The congestion on the bridges we now have la unendur able. M Mr. Modjeski says a bascule bridge is the best thing. He is an ex pert and he ought to know." "I thine It would be better for ths present to take the O. R. N. bridge ana maxt a gooa waim ununy that" said C. F. Adams, president of the Security Savings & Trust company. "As tu tbe bridge recommended by Mr. Modjeski, I don't care to express an opinion at present. I haven't studied matter.' Thinks Modjeski tight. J. H. Nolta, a prominent member of the West Albina Push club, is heartily In favnr of the bascule bridge recom mended by Engineer Modjeski. "Mr. Mod jeski ought to know what is best." says Mr. Nolta. "There Is no need of our going to work and spending $3, 000,00') for a bridge if we can gft one for $1,500,000. "We need a bridge Jiadly and what's more, we're going to have it.
