The German View.

The German view. as held at the for.
eien office. is that the United States
cannot reasonably expect to share in
the special benefits given by Germany
TO certain European states in exchange
for other specific tariff reductions.
Should the United States have the
same advantages without giving any
thing in return. the treaty countries
could justly complain that they were
in effect Disseminated against. because
from them certain things We're exacted
by the bargain which were freely given
to the United States. l5u if the nit
ed States tries to take up the general
tariff question. and arrange Il recip-
rocal agreement. Germany will be Very
glad to u. SO. Otherwise Germany's
new general tariff. which also goes into
effect March /. 1906. Will be applied TO
imports from the United States
Washington has not Yet replied TO
G~nrnaany'S proposals.

Yours respectfully,
Build New Bridge

The Northern Pacific has submitted
plans to railroad contractors through
out the country for bids for a new
steel bridge over the Columbia river at
Pasco, WASH, to be commenced after
the high water in August, and to cost
nearly $500, 900. Contractors in this
city are figuring on the job, and both
members of McCreary & Willard, a
constructing firm returned yesterday
from visiting the site.
The bridge at that point is one of the
largest and longest in the west. II
spans the Columbia river about three
miles above the mouth of the Snake
river, and is $500 feet long. 1t has 10
spans of $50 feet each and draw span
in the middle of 800 feet. The present
bridge is combination wood and steel
affair, and has done service for many
years.
Four years ago the company re-
placed the wooden piles which sup
ported the structure with massive con-
crete piers and abutments, which are
said to be the best along the whole line
OF the railroad. At that time the COM
pany had steel bridge in mind for
the place, and built the concrete piers
accordingly.
| 1t is said the construction work of
the bridge will cost about $4,000, and
will take eight Or nine months. The
steel will probably cost over SOC, 900.
Plans for the structure require about
800 tons of high grade steel for each
span, and bridge steel costs from $50
to $50 ton.
Columbia courier. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1902-1905, 1905-01-20

The portion cut off include Sections 16,
p, IS and the east half of Sections II,
20 and % making total Of four and
one half sections. This will reduce the
taxable property of this district from
the amount given by the Auditor about
$50, 900 leaving still an assessed valua-
ton of this district of at least $3.50 900,
or about one third more than what was
stated by the President at the meeting.
The facts above will vastly change
the completion of affairs. In place of
IA maximum indebtness of less than
$40 600 this district can carry maxi
mum indebtness of S14,250, deducting
the 81 900 which is about the present
Indebtedness 0: the district, would
leave $4,000 to purchase grounds on
the south side of the track and build a
good school building thereon.
Since this is an absolute fact l ask
the voters of this district to consider, if
this present proposition, which was
brought about about by misstate-
nent of facts, either Intentionally
or Internationally shall stand, or
shall we place the bond issue at So
900 and purchase grounds and build
good permanent school building
ON this side to accommodate section 3
and the portion east of town which
will eventually Eecome thlckly
populated, and make this new build
ing the future high school OF kenne-
wick, with grade schools in section
and section S, thus laying the
foundation at a strong district with
a central high school within the
reach of all, or shall additional
rooms lie built to the old building
and the people from seven and
other places be put to the hardship
of sending their children to the up
per portion of town for years to
come If new school building is
built south of the track at a proper
central place, then the present old
school building is now sufficiently
large to accommodate all the chill
dren in the Kennewick gardens for
many years, and any additional
rooms added to it now will simply
be a waste of money.
The step was taken at the meet
ing in good faith by all OH the
presumption that the taxable prop
erty of the district was insufficient to
build new building in the proper
place. Since facts are different the
action of that meeting should not
stand.
I am calling the attention OF the
public to this for the sake OF tar
play and to preserve harmony
throughout the district, paving the
way for an equitable distribution OF
school facilities and laying the foun-
dation for a strong school district.

Discusses School Bond Issue.
To the Voters of Kennewick Schs

To the Voters of Kennewick School
District: Notices have been posted call
ing for an election in the kenuewick
School district on Januiry IS. 1905, to
vote on the issuance of Five Thousand
dollars bonds for the purpose of huild
ing addition to the present school
house in this district, and also to pur-
chase site for a future school building
10 be located south of the railroad
tracks. A resolution was passed about
six weeks ago to this effect at a meeting
of the Board of Directors of the district
aud number of the qualified voters
thereof.
Ia order that this proposition may
be thoroughly understood by the peo-
pie Of the district l wish to call at
:tention to facts underlying this action
of the Board and the ratification there
of by the voters who attended the
meeting.
The President of the School Board
represented at this meeting that the
taxable property of the school district
was in the neighborhood of Sl97 100000.
and that the highest Indebtedness
which this district could vote was five
per cent of the taxable property of the
district, which would make a bond
issue of less than $4,000 the maximum
iadebtness which weIcould incur 1t
was further represented that this dis
rric5 was indebted on the present
school building about $1,000 which
would have to be deducted from the
maximum Indebtedness, leaving less
than $4,000 which was the greatest
amount which the district could raise
at the present time by bonding and
which could he utilized for building
a house and purchasing ground. This
amount the President argued was not
sufficient to purchase ground and build
q suitable building, and consequently
the only alternative was to devote part
of the money TO he raised hy bonds to
purchase a site ana the rest 10 build an
addition to the present school building
These facts Were accepted hy the voters
that evening and consequently the
resolutions passed.
Subsequent events have proven that
the facts which led UP to this resolu-
lion were niiss;atei and the assembly
was grossly nislead. l have myself
made inquiries at the county authors
office and have Letter from the coun.
ty Auditor stating that the taxable
property of this school district is $685.
8l2, instead of some Sl97, 900 as was
stated by the President of the Board
that evening. Since receiving this
statement from the county auditor and
since that meeting, portion of the
district hasa been cut off and added
to district further down the valley.
