HIE OREGON DAILY JOURNAU PORTLAND. WEDNESDAY EVENING. DECEMBER 15. 1009." PORTLAND IS COMPLETELY IGfJORED Jin the Matter of Construct CJng the New feted Bridge 7 1 he Port of Portia n d and tlie jlarrinian Lines Give City do-By. . The Tort of Portland and the Ilarrl man llnca ara 'passing- up the- city, of Portland and the county of Multnomah, ' In the construction of the proposed. new tool brlda-e,. ; - : 1 ' -v ; The railroad company officials hava not consulted with officials .of Mult nomah county' In any. manner concern' lnf tli new structure, Us stse, arrange ment or the 'price whloh the company expects ,the county to, pay for. the use or tne upper aec. , . The city has not been aaked for per ! mission to erect the bridge proper,' or put the approaches In the city streets. . "The Port of Portland end the federal government have granted permission to build the bridge. ,We have not aaked the -city for permission because vwe do not consider it to be necessary," is tne way C Q. Sutherland, .speaking in the absence ' of ' General Manager J. P. O'Brien, expresses it.- s . , : " Ballroad PrafteA Plant. :. - When the Uarriman lines drafted the plans for the new bridge and submitted them to the Port Of Portland that or ganisation insisted that the upper deck be made 71 feet wide Instead of BO feet as planned. This change was made by : . the company la order to have Its plans , passed by the .Port of Portland. The change will add $500,000 to the cost of the struoture, making an annual Inter est charge of $30,000 additional. Multnomah county, If the public Is to use the bridge, will be expected to pay for the use of the upper deck, and It is believed ' that - the Increased cost will . mean an Increased charge upon the county over what is now paid. At the preeent time the county pays $850 a month for the use of the upper deck of the steel bridge, besides keeping It in repair. In spite of this fact of pros pective increased cost the Port of Port land, or the railroad company, did not ask the county for any opinion regard ing the construction of the bridge. It Is a fact, however, that the use of the bridge will be necessary for the publio traffic across the river and, while the county is not compelled to meet the charges of the railroad com pany, it would hardly tee able to do ' without the bridge, and so would, be compelled to meet whatever charge the railroad company might make. Another Strange Incident. It Is considered still more strange, however, that the company did not ask the permission .of the city for-the con struction of the bridge. Men versed In the law who have looked Into the situa tion contend that the city and not the Port of Portland, has the right to ranti permission for the construction of a bridge across the river within the city limits. It'll pointed out-that the char ter gives the city- the ownership and control of the river bed, or, as it is expressed, "the land under the water." It is also contended that , the Port of Portland Is granted the rlftht to remove obstructions from the '"river, but , not to grant permission ' to put obstructions In the stream. . . :, Because of these provisions it Is con-' ENOUGH LAIV IF II IS ENFORCED Dr. Smith Says Crusaders Should Stop Whining , . and Work. . . Every .practical preparation for the enforcement of the pure milk ordinance can be made before the oouncll meet4 next week, in the opinion of Dr. Alan Welch. Smith, president of the city board of health. What we want to do la not to whine about pot having law epough. or. not having ability enough to enforce the law we have but to proceed to enforce It," said Dr. Smith. Since it Is aaaured that the licenses will be Issued by the board of health from the health office and 'under the supervision of Dr. Wheeler, It Is point ed out that Dr. Wheeler ould have ar ranged to' be provided with; blanks which the dairyman who wants & license to. sell milk will fill out and sign. A meeting of . the city and state boards of health, together with the government Inspectors and Dr. WUeeler, Is also pro posed as an advantageous,' move. At this meeting, It. is asserted, a practical plan ror cooperative ' work, such as Is provided for in the new ordinance, could be formulated and-adopted. The board of health could also have considered the applications for the po sitions of city dairy Inspectors which the ordinance provides for, and could have made all appointments, tentatively at least It is said. Many believe, too, that .except for. the. provision for test Ing cows fori tuberculosis and availing itself of Inspections made by .the state dairy commissioner, s. new ordinance was not necessary, had the old one been enforced,- . r .'. "The clamor of the people, therefore.' said one who has taken great Interest in the. milk campaign.-1s not for more argument of legal technicalities, but l following of Mayor Simon's recommen datlon, which is to enforce the law in a manner sane and reasonable and yet with effectiveness sufficient to give the people of Portland protection ag-ainet bad milk by lmprovng the condition of ..... .

Port Without Authority. But Ieavlnr the., river proper. It Is contended that the city alone has Jur isdiction over the streets and - that therefore the Port of Portland has no right to give permission to build .bridge approaches on Gllsan street on .the west side and : Oregon street jm the east side, of the river. This power. It Is contended, rests entirely In the city, and.lt Is necessary for the railroad company to get . permission from the city for such , approaches before -their construction. Trouble Is liable to arise out of, these contentions. Many of those who are In ' favor of tho Broadway bridge have been paying close heed to the question, and the feeling is crystal lzlns into the slogan of "two bridges or none. ' : : : -. It Is believed : by these people that the opposition of the big property own ers along Third street to the Broadway bridge has had something to do with the Increase of the sine of the proposed steel bridge. In order that It could be argued that the upper deck of the steel bridge " would, be-able to take care of the trar fio from , the Peninsula, , and bring It Into town alone Third street. In this belief, these people are thinking aenunsjy or starting suit to enjoin the construction of the steel bridge by the railway company, on the ground that the city has not given Its permission to construct the bridge, and that such con struction cannot be commenced without tne sanction or the city. This action will only be undertaken, however, If the suits and the opposition against the construction of the Broadwav brlda-a urn ni Huanuonea oy tne property own ers interested and by the Port of Port tana. - . .

It may be said, all of 24 hours every week to spend with his family. - i They will say to Mayor Simon that they think it no more than just that they be granted warmth and ventilation and sanitation as adjuncts of the sta tions; that If .a man risks his life and Is seriously injured defending the prop erty of Portland citizens, that his pay should not be stopped, as at present, and even If the firemen pay for their own injured.
