There is disagreement among the leading spirits in the city government as to the proper method of proceedure on bridges. In the meantime the city has six to eight thousand dollars on hand in the bridge fund, and the committee will go ahead and spend it. , The suggestion of Alderman If anning that the city build con crete piers and then put on steel girders has a great deal of sense. . Straight solid piers will stand longer, and steel girders will leave a larger opening for high water than arch bridges. Piers with pteel girders are simpler, cheaper, more durable and less liable to settle than arch concrete for small spans. Steel girders can by covered with plank or concrete or paving, and are practically indestructaUc. 1 'Go ahead, Mr. Manning, arm build some good piers and get ready to put on some kind of a covering according to your means and when you run out of money the people will give you more. , , .. o , . , , .

We advertise: Values to 75c In Plain and Fancy Messalines and Plain Taffeta's, All Colors No man hns yet shown up at Salem big enough to handle the problem of bringing in a gravity system of water supply. Medford, Newport, Corvallis, Baker City, Newberg, Dalles and many other places have been able to do this thing right. None of these cities are going bankrupt, and some of them are getting fine revenues from their water systems. Seattle and Tacoma have magnificent gravity systems, and are coining big money out of their public ownership plants. The state officials, the legislature, the heads of state institu tions and the county officials have begged the city to act. Today we are in the humiliating conditions of not even hav ing a decent adequate water supply for the state institutions lo cated here. A water famine at the state's biggest institution is on the program, and petty makeshifts are restorted to for protection. Another well will be dug, another ten thousand dollars will be thrown away for a temporary supply, and then the state will have nit. It seems a man big enough toplan this thing, big enough to see its importance and figure out the cost hns not yet been dis covered. With the mountains full of pure water, wasting itself and run ning down hill past our doors, we have not gumption enough to tap it. We have too many of what 'Lish Applegate called "Ju venpeters." No city in the history of civilization ever threw away an op portunity to get a water supply on such favorable terms. The present plant, as it stands, is earning nil kinds of money for its owners, and they are not even willing to sell to the city. The nine state institutions are spending enough on water sup ply and employes and engineers and plumbers to almost keep it up. Governor West has stated that he was ready and willing to furnish convict labor to lay the mains to the mountains. The Btate officials havo been authorized time and again to enter into contracts with the city to put in a joint water sys tem. Yet we have no man in the city big enough to head a move ment to bring about a desideratum for which the whole state would pay. On top of that the whole state would be benefitted and feel ffrateful for what Salem would do in this matter. of timber land in Eastern Linn coun- ty, in addition to about a million I acres of wagon road land, which la said la belong to the Hill Interests. They have some of the best t'mberin the world anil this is the only way to get to It. o W. I'lAfES AFFECTIONS AT HIGH FHUKF.

If Salem hasn't got a man b'genoujfh to solve the problem of a gravity water systtm for thu city and the state institutions, why not import one? Frank Bell, of Sublimity, whelms made fifty thousand dollars farming in the past twenty years, will do a prent deal of pood missionary work in Germany the next three months to bring peo ple to Oregon. Alderman Durbin did a very kindly act in offering a resolution for the care and protection of Dolly, the old fire department mnre. Polly is still doing good servico in the street cleaning de partment. She is a familiar sight on the streets, and is liked by every Salemito who knows her history and her faithful and gen tle disposition. Salem merchants do not quit advertising on account of a little hot wave. This is the dull month in some places, but not at Sa lem. Crops are just beginning to move here. Industries are just waking up. So-called public officials who lay awake nights to plot and plan some sneak-game graft on the taxpayers are entitled to a doso of political quicklime, and will get it. The Medford Mail-Tribune ha9 the following: "Salem is hav Ing a coronation of cherries. King King and Queen Anne are the monarchs to be crowned. They may not be admitted to for eign court circles, but no one can throw asparagus at their family tree.' 'otloe of Assessment.
