BRIDGE Bl'SINESS.
Full Text of tho ltetmrt of the Ex
ecutive Committee to the Bridge
Cummittee of Twenty-live.
Pursuant to suggestion, we publwh be
low tho full report of the bridge committee
of five to the citizens' committee of
twenty-flvo. It will be Been that there
was competition, ami that the bridge
could not bo built cheaper ten years
hence than at the present time :
To the Citizens, Bridge Committee of
Twenty-live, V. J. Ilerren, chairman
Gentlemen : Your executive committee
of five, appointed at your meeting of
March 8th, 18WJ, to mature plans have
surveys made, etc., bog leavo to report
aB follows:
We engaged tho services of Capt.
Charles F. Powell of tho U. 8. engineers,
who agreed to make a preliminary Btir
vey and give a memorandum and chart
thereof, together with his opinion as to
the projxjr location of the proposed bridge,
in such manner that wo would have suf
ficient data upon which to advertise for
detail plans and sH)ciflcations, and bids
for the construction of the bridge, for
$250, together with the actual expense of
the survey ; and that he would further
net as consulting engineer in tho con
struction of the bridge, from the time of
tho. submission of bids and plans and
specifications for the building of the
bridge, to its final completion, for an ad
ditional sum of $2T0, provided a superin
tendent of construction, of his own selec
tion, be employed, to be kept in mijwr
vision of the work during the whole pro
gross of the construction of tho bridge.
Capt. Powell performed the first in
stallment of the work agreed uion in a
very satisfactory manner, as will appear
by the maim of tho river, and "Informa
tion to bidders" prepared by him and
herewith submitted.
For 'this work he has been paid as
agreed Uon ; und for this togother with
the expense of the survey etc., your
committco hus incurred an indebtedness
of 168 IM over and above the amount
collected from tho citizens for that pur
pose, all of which fully appears by tiio
reort of our treasurer, W. T. Gray, ac
companying this report.
Capt. Powell lutH also entered upon the
second division of tho work agreed upon,
in the way of consulting with and ad
vising the committee about tiie merits of
diliernnt plans ana proposals submitted,
and this, with the understanding that lie
will be paid by tho city in case the work
firoceeds. In this also, his services have
lecn very satisfactory and valuable to
, your committee. His report on the dil
torent propomilB submitted, accompanies
tins report.
Having boon advised by Capt. Powell
that Center street waB the best location
lor a truss bridge, and Chemeketa street
the bout for a BUHiwnsion bridge, we in
vited proposals for, (1), a llxeu iron
truss; (2), a fixed combination truss, and
(3), a suspension bridge, by circular let
tor addressed to every bridge building
concern in the country whose address
could be ascertained. AIoio than fifty
circulurs wore sent out. Of these, about
sixteen were answered by application for
further information, winch was supplied
by sending to cacti applicant blue points
f tho river map, una section sliowin
the length of spans, locution of piers an
etc.. toinither with the printed ''informa
tion to builders," nil prepared by Capt,
I'owell under direction of your committee,
In response to all litis, on June 2d. 18H(i,
thoro were submit tod to us huts and pro-
OfialB, with plans and specifications for
tae construction oi a bridge, irom seven

2 (iron), $08000.
7. Pacific Bridge Company, S. F
Portland. Bid No. 1 (iron), $73300; bid
JSo. 2 (combination), S57200.
As we deemed the bids above $55000
to be in excess of the amount that could
be probably raised for bridge purposes
we rejected those above thut amount at
once, and referred the remainder to oapt,
Powell for his examination and recoin
memlutions. Upon these he has report
ed as already mentioned.
Tho lowest bid in point of amount, viz
that of the Bun Francisco Bridge Co. for
$44800. was rejected by your committee
for the reason that the bridge describod
in that proposal, was not as strong as
prescribed by us under the advice of our
engineer.
We report favorably upon bid No. 1 of
the ban Francisco Bridge Co. for $48887
and recommend you, and through you, it
approved, the city council to take steps
to secure wie erection oi u unugu ucuoru-
inn- to that nroposul.
The plans, specifications, and strain
.sheets accompanying this proposal are
herewith submitted. There is now in the
hands of your committee a certified check
for $3000, deK)Bited by the company
making this proposal, as a guaranty for
entering into a contract with sufficient
security for the performance of the work
in case it is awarded to tho company by
the citv.
We are of the opinion that such a bridge
would be durable and substantial, besides
being an immense assistance to the bum-

PRESS AND PULPIT.
A. H. Siegfried, the business repre
sentative of the Chicago News in New
ork city, read a paper recently before
the meeting of the Presbyterian ministers
upon "Tho attitude of the secular press
in America toward religion."
"If, in a prefatory word, I may use the
shop,' tho paper I now read was pre
pared as a 'special' for the Congrega
tional club of New York," began Mr.
Siegfried. "It is the work of a newspaper
standpoint, showing the actual attitude
of the press toward religion.
"I think tiie country editor is the great
est secular friend that religion has, for he
has a direct and indirect interest in re
gion greater than his city brother. The
village editor is in closer contract with
religious movements than the metropo
litan newspajier man. When we turn,
however, to the 1300 daily newspapers
in this country, who sot tho pace for the
niick thought and nervous movement of
the peoplo, we find a difference. There
is some truth in the remark that the at
titade of the daily editor toward religion
is one of calm superiority, isut 1 think
that expression should be changed to 'in
different friendship.' Neither in thought
nor spirit has the city press much in com
mon with religion.
"Homo time ago 1 had seven questions
printed on slips of paper asking the edi
tors of papers certain facts about the re
ligious attitude of their paper, how many
of their employes were professed chris
tians and what" their own religious status
was. I sent out 141 of these lists to the
editors of papers in every part of this
country and Canada, and with each list
was a iiersonal note and an address and
stamied envelope. Out of the whole I
received twenty-eight answers, iriese
twenty-eight replies came from Hartford,
Providence, JSew York, Alhany, Mon
treal and other points. Two of the
stamped envelopes were returned, sealed
and empty, from Philadelphia, and I took
the liberty of taking this as an indica
tion of the opinions of ttie Philadelphia
papers."
Mr. Siegfried said the interest in this
Bort of correspondence was in the clues
it might give us to the attitude of the
press toward religion, and that he re
ceived replies from five German and
twenty-three English papers, but not a
single German paper announced any of
its employeB as religious men. The
Ixmisville Commercial reported one-fifth
of its staff professed Christians ; the At
lanta Constitution three-fourths; the
Albany Eevning Journal eight out of
twenty-three men ; the New York Journal
of Commerce rive-ninths; the Boston
Traveller one-third; the Washington
Republican 1 jer cent; the Chicago
Evening Journal one in five.
The Kt. Paul Globe said that it treated
religous creeds as it did political creeds,
upholding what was good in them and
denouncing what was bad.
The Louisville Commercial thought the
churches did better work than the police.
SI ura t ltalHtead wrote ; "1 have not had
time yet to conquer this world and so
have not invaded any other."
The Kansas Guy limes said news-
papers always treated religion in a fair
spirit.
Hie Wushington nepubiican said it
was "tolerant to all creeds and doemos."
"A distinguished clergyman has said
the Kundav patters 'must go," he con
tinued. " lie never made a greater mis
take. The Sunday newspaper will stay,
for it has come to stay. 1 do not now
speak for or against it. I only state facts,
There is no force that is so strongly BactP
laming the sabbath as the bunuay news-
paper. But the Sunday paper cannot be
ignored or doomed. VY hat are you going
to do with it? All that religion can ask
of the newspaper is that it walk uprightly
in its secular path.
Mr. Siegfried th.cn referred to the press
as a great agent in purifying the moral
atmosphere, and referred to the work of
papers on convicting Tweed, downing the
Kuklu.t, driving the gamblers out of
Louisville and cleaning the dens from
Twenty-seventh street, in New York.
Philadelphia News.
IN THE COUNTRY SANCTUM.
An Atlanta reporter who once "pulled
a hand press" on a country weekly tells
this story :
One day, while the paper was being
worked off, a man from the country came
in and walked around the room, finally
stopping near the press and watching the
work very earnestly.
"Anything lean do for you?" asked
the man at the lever, pausing between
impressions.
"Naw," was the reply, "I don't want
nothin', I jis come in to see ye edit."
On another a man came in with a bas
ket of snap beans, and, placing thorn on
the editorial table, exclaimed :
"See what I fotch ye !"
Ie remained half an hour or so, and,
as he arose to go, said :
"Whatever ye think tiiom is wuth, jis
put it down on my subscription."
The customary thanks ,for snap beans
didn't get in the paper that week. At

"Well, what shall the signal be," asked
the constituent.

SEW YORK GOSSIP.
People who reside in smaller cities
than New York continually refer to the
noise and bustle of the metropolis as the
chief argument against it as a place of
residence. They have no idea of the
quiet home-life here, and know nothing
of the thousands of families, who are as
much out of the rush and roar of New
York life as though they resided in the
mountain fastness of Pikecounty. There
is a little colony of people in Thirty-eighth
street who prove to everybody's satisfac
tion, including their own, that a quiet
residence is a possible thing in New York.
Four or five houses are occupied by fam
ily connections more or less close. They
are tremendously industrious in church
matters, their servants are happy and
easy-going, and their houses are models
of neatness, both within and without.
Every one of the five families has a far
from fashionable, but thoroughly reliable,
coachman and sturdy horses. There is
a vast deal of visiting among the mem
bers of the different households, and on
Sunday there is such an outpouring of
well-dressed church-goers as few other
houses in New York can show. I hear a
good deal about them, for I have an ac
quaintance, who is chiefly distinguished
for his inability to win at horse-races and
his disinclination to pay tailor's bills,
who has apartments across the way. He
is a small man, with a thoughtful man
ner and an overdrawn bank-acconnt. So
far as my own experience goes, the great
er part of his life is spent in trying to fig
ure out how' he can make an income of
eight thousand dollars' worth of debts
per annum. He doesn't get much sleep,
his evenings being 'spent in guarding
stage doors, supporting the card-table at
the club, kicking over ash-barrels, and in
dulging in similar freaks of fancy and
mental labor: Accordingly he sieepslate.
About two o'clock in tiie afternoon he
usually manages to get through with his
breakfast, which event is signalized by
his appearance at the front windows of
his apartments. He leans far out wrapped
m a uutn roDe, crowned dv a polo cap,
and adorned by a big cigar, and puts in
an hour and a half of quiet observation
of the unobtrusive families across the way,
much to their scandal, no doubt, lie has
made it a habit during the last five months
to bow gravely to all of the servants, and
as theyare all goodnatured negroes, his sa
lutations are returned with gleaming teeth
and broad Africans grins. When tie goes
out and climbs solemnly into his cart at
the door, he bows with extreme solem
nity to the house-fronts and then rattles
away. He is probably regarded in the
light of a diversion by the respectable
families across the way, unless they look
upon him as an unmitigated monster.
A remarKame negro lives across the
way from me. He is the butler of a quiet
family of oldish people, who hail from
Boston, ihey are given to reading heavy
tomes, observing considerable silence,
and exhibiting an intense and high de
gree of solemnity. It wears upon the
butler. He is very bald, very straight, and
apparently exceedingly respectable, but
his natural disposition will crop out in
spite ot his rigid regard lor the propne-
ties. To-day, for instance, he had just
put a visitor out ot ttie house with a ma
jestic bow when he discovered an ash
man last asleep on ttie edge of his cart.
He looked at him for a moment, and then
went over to the ash-cart and pulled a
bit of rope from the ashes. The driver
wore a long-tailed and ragged Newmarket
coat, winch he had fished out of a barrel
somewhere, and the butler carefully tied
the tail of the coat to one of the big cart
wheels, ihen be retired to the house,
and a moment later the lower windows
were alive with the grinning faces of the
female servants of the house. Presently
the Irishman waked up with a start.
cave a whoop at discovering that he had
been asleep, kicked the horse, and the
cart moved ahead. There wasa clutch, a
shrink, a wild confusion of cart wheels,
New-market coats, and ash-heavers, flop
on the ground, and presently a lonely
and disheveled Irishman stood up and
glared wildly around, lie no longer
w ore a Newmarket coat, but he kicked
tiie horse into a state of subjection, and
then suddenly catching sight of a small
boy, who was grinning derisively, started
after him on a full run and disappeared
around the corner. Tiie solemn butler
peered cautiously from the door, and then
descending rapidly to the street, tied the
reins in a dozen knots, stole a big plume
that was sticking out of the horse's collar
and thrust it into the ashes, turned the
animal around, and started him in the
opposite direction from that which the
Irishman had taken. The horse patient'y
and mildly ambled away toward the west,
and drifted quite out of sight before the
Irishman received a tip from a good
natured policeman, which sent him
bounding along toward the setting sun in
pursuit of his steed. There is some little
divertisement of this sort every day from
the majestic old negro, who is evidently
obliged to keep up such a wonderful show
of respectability in the house that he
takes it out in larking in the street.

OBAND JURY REPORT.
Filed Yesterday, and the Grand Jury
Discharged Everything: round in
Good Shape.
The following report of the grand jury
was filed yesterday :
To the Honorable the Circuit Court of
the State of Oregon, for Marion county :
We, the undersigned grand jurors for tlm
June term of said court, 1880, beg leave
to report :
That we have completed our labors,
and investigated all matters that have
been submitted to us.
That we visited the offices of the several
county oilieers, and made a cursory exam
mation of the records and olhcial paers
therein, and so far as our examination
extended we found everything in good
order, and tiie records systematically ar
ranged and well kept.
1 he court house is in good condition,
and we have only to recommend that
the floors of the jail be repaired, and that
burglar-proof safe be placed in the
office of the county treasurer, inasmuch
as the one now in use is, in our opinion,
unsafe as a depository of the couuty
funds.
The asylum, penitentiary, state home,
and other public buildings of the stite,
were also visited by us, and everything
seems to be in order. The asylum, we
were informed by the officials in charge,
now contains 455 inmate1"., and there is
begining to be a lack of room for these
unfortunates. Tho building was only
designed for the accomodation of 412
patients, we were informed ; and, if this
be true, the building will soon have to be
enlarged. The officials in charge are de
serving of special mention for the perfect
order and neatness maintained through
out the several ward3.
The poor farm building is badly in need
of a coat of paint, but the inmates appear
to le contented, and their wants proper
ly attended to. The grand jurors recom
mend that the said buildifg be repaint
ed this summer.

OUR WORST ENEMIES'.
Next to our vices, are our follies. Amons
them la the Imperilling of future bodily com
fort, and the average tenure of life to which
persons of moderately good constitutions are
persumably entitled, by imprud"nce in eatinc;
and drinking, and the reckless use of drugs. It
is one of the happy capabilities of ilosletter's
Stamach Bitters that it can repair damage thus
inflicted. W hen the blood is thin and watery,
the bowels out of order, the complexion and
tongue both giving evidence of biliousness,
there is a necessity for repairs upon the human
tenement obvious enouen to gianie its possess
or. A course of the Bitters, the abandonment
of "drugging" for relief, and a common sense
diet and mode of life these will soeedily pro
duce a change forthe better. What quinine for
fever and age, and mercury for biliousness and
constipation, won't do, the Bitters will. It also
relieves rheumatism and neuralgia, and inac
tivity of the kidneys.
ADVICE TO MOTHERS.
Are you disturbed at night and broken of yeur
rest by a sick child suffering and crying with
pain of cutting teeth? If so, send at once and
get a bottle of the Wlnslow'i Boothing Syrup for
Children's Teething. Its value is Incalculable
It will relieve the poor little sufferor Immedi
ately. Depend upon it, mothers, there is no
mistake about it It cures disentery and diarr
hoea, regulates the stomach and bowels, cures
wind colic, softens the gums.reduces innama
tlon, and gives tone and energy tp the whole
system. Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup for
Children's Teething is pleasant to the taste, and
is the prescription of one of the oldest and best
female nurses and physicians in the United
States, and is for sale by all druggists through,
the World. Price 25 cent bottle.
CURE FOR TILE.
Piles are frequently preceded by a tonne of
