IS NEEDED
TRUCkMAN GIVES EXAMPLE
OF HOW ENORMOUS WEIGHT
Is HURLED ON CITY BRIDGES
WITHOUT SLIGHTEST RE.
GARD TO DISTRIBUTION OF
STRAIN,

Whether the bridges over the
Spokane river in the heart of the
city stand any strain or not, is not
a mooted question.
I'm a driver for a big freight
patron of the railroads." said one
man this morning, "and / have
often had occasion to cross the
Howard street bridgesto the o. r.
& n. depot. Last week Just after
great Northern train had blocked
the way to the bridge which fell
Sunday, there was a rush to get
across. There was my own wagon
with machinery, a heavy truck,
heavily loaded. l met on the span
of that bridge a truckload of -four
from the Centennial mill and a load
of grain from the Washington Mill
company. The city, or somebody
else, had load of rock travelling,
and just after this concentrated
load OF strain was off the bridge,
there came Washington Water
Power company car.
"As one of the drivers In the
employ of one Of the city's big
commercial enterprises. | suggest
that the city maintain a fiagman
at those bridget, whose bushes 3
would be to stop the budding to-
gether of an immense weight of
traffic at any instant.
Now, just think. II there had
been a fire at the moment and a
fire engine had added Its plunging
weight to that contested traffic"
