AT
BOY MAYOR

Insurance men Of the city are in
clined to laugh at the notice of Mayor
L. Frank Boyd to the effect that the
pink slip notices of increases In rates
by 20 per cent must be withdrawn.
The agents say the peripatetic mayor
is trying to manufacture a little
campaign material which will aid him
in covering up some of the admin
istration discrepancies.
The mayors order to the corpora
tion counsel to begin suit unless the
pink slips are withdrawn and to
prosecute the companies for forming
a combination is another little joke
for the insurance men.
The agents say the companies do
and they anticipate much trouble for
the mayor in case he tries to build
UP his waning political prestige at
the expense of the companies. They
threaten that any interference at this
time will likely result in the with
drawal of the companies from the
Spokane field until such time as
proper water protection is given.
This veiled threat to withdraw
from the local field makes it a serious
proposition, one too weighty for the
boy mayor to meddle with. Whether
the companies would really withdraw
is a question-but at the same time
1t is much better for the interests of
the business men to wait until a
mayor fs in office who is capable of
carrying out a legitimate and reason
able campaign against the high rates.
With better water protection to back
him a real mayor will be able to ac-
complish something. There will be
new mayor elected in April.

concrete pier. This swelled when il
came in contact with the water and
cracked the concrete. Then the engi-
neer and contractor declared the pier
had settled.
Now the claim is made that the
pier is pushed out by the fill. City
Engineer Gill admits that the plans
contemplated a retaining wall, which
wasn't built in time to save the piers.

union last night the matter was dis
