Ulic strenuous effort ma'do to defeat the construction of permanent bridges wlwr tho warfaro that progress has to f&Kxit -with. Tho pcoplo should not despair, how erer. If over ono good permanent tttlnrtt goes down others will follow. If this city wcro to bo so fortunate ins to secure nb expenditure- of half a million dollars on street improvements t -would bo a godsoml. It would mean hundreds of now tfor laboring men. It would moan bring ing In hundreds of now people, and they would spend money. Tho danger now is that grafts will 0)0 worked on tho improvements, mak ing tho first strcot cost so much that it will block further improvement. The action of tho city council to isulmilt tho question of pormanont Jbrldgo construction to a voto of tho yeoplo is wise. Lot thoro bo nt least tthrco good bridges built.
