We started this campaign with
fear and doubt. To ask strang-

ones equally strangers 70 as
seemed daring indeed And we
could appeal to only a million
homes, the million homes into
which The Delineator goes-not
one twentieth of all the homes in
this great country. Caution
made us tell the stories Of only
two. We feared that even these
might not be asked for. We
doubted the greatness of the
great American heart. We
doubted, and we are ashamed.
Over two hundred eager hands
have already been extended.
Three hundred requests for
these little ones-fcr any home

received through the mails. Wo-
men have come for miles away
into our building asking for these
precious ones; men have journey

Plan to Shut Out the Possibility of
Repairing Monroe St. Bridge
So Regarded.

demands a streetcar crossing at
Monroe st. at any price.
That the w. w. p. Co. realizes
its liability for part payment of re-
pair work and is bending every eff
fort to force the erection of new
bridge is considered certain. To
that end it laid new rails across the
old bridge in order to frightened
patrons of those lines into united
demand for new bridge by dis
playing an intention to use the old
one.
Enlisted with the company are
the business and property interests
bordering on Monroe ST., largely on
the Southsde. They comprise a
block and a half from Lincoln to
the Riverside corner and on the
west side of Monroe. 1t is pointed
out that the Northside residents
can reach the pOstOffice and center
of town more directly by using cars
crossing the Post st. bridge, as at
present, although 1t is not disputed
that they are thereby denied the
privilege of passing the Spokes-
man-Review building.
Mr.. Pratt claims that the coun-
Gil has not changed front on the
bridge issue. He says the resolu-
ton calling for estimates on new
bridge to the exclusion Of repair
ing the old one was passed by six
councilmen who understood that
Funk and himself, Of the bridge
committee. would consider no prop
osition not embracing repairs, If re-
pairs were possible. He holds that
business sense demands that the
question be investigated in all it's
phases before definite action is de-
cided upon. Engineer Bihler has
reported in favor of repairs, and
the Straus report is regarded as
ambiguous In that he admits that
repairs could be made, but advises
against it.
BY Expert Burr the council hopes
to arrive at conclusion which
can be relied upon absolutely both
as to the possibility of safe repair
work or the necessity of building
a new bridge.
AS regards the Olive st. bridge
it is pointed out that the county
commissioners have agreed to pay
half the cost. The Traction Co. Is
known to be willing to pay half of
the remainder, which would leave
the city's bill in the neighborhood
of $4,000, as the bridge Is not ex-
pected to cost more than $4,000.
This bridge, although built but
two or three years ago, is consid-
cred decidedly shakey. The Trac-
ton Co. refuses to haul its water
tank across 1t.

Wedding GUEST

OFFICER LEWIS, IN EVENING

BANDITS GET AWAY.

Put yer hans up, young feller,'
greeted e. w. Mclnturff early last
evening when he was en- route to
the home of Detective w. H. Lewis,
his father.in-law, to attend the wed
ding Of his sister, Mabel LaRue
McIhturff, to Charles Willard
Bucklen, of the AllisIChalmers Co.
MeInturff, on account Of there
being a police officer in the family,
was well versed in holdup lore, so,
not wishing any casualties before
the wedding, complied and held up
his hands.
The two men, masked and fore
boding, then rifled his pockets and
found only gold watch. This
they scrutinized intently for a
minute and handed it back, saying
1t was too easy to identify. Then
they told McInturff to "Skiddoo
like u" and he did.
Rushing into the house all out

assembled guests of the wedding
party. Offlcer Lewis. who was

ported the occurrence to head
quarters but did not mention the
fact that his son-in-law was the

away once more his artillery and

MURDER SUSPECT
APPARENTLY CRAZY

BAKER CITY, Oct. 10.-The of
ficers have no hope of securing any
thing in the nature of evidence
from Frank Tucker, the man ar
rested at Sumpter on suspicion OF
knowing the murderers of Harvey
Brown. He is suffering from the
effects of long spree and can
tell nothing While drunk at
Granite he stated that Frank Will
SON.. miner, had tried to hire him
to help in the plot to kill Brown.
He also stated that he was with
in 20 feet of the bomb that killed
Brown when it exploded. When
taken to Baker City. Tucker said
he had not been there for weeks
and was out of town at the time
Of the murder. Authorities attach
no importance to his story. He is
undoubtedly mildly insane.
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1907-10-10

The city council is as determined
as any body of citizens that a safe
bridge shall be provided at Mon
roe St, according to Pres. N. s.
Pratt, who was instrumental in in
sorting proviso that Expert Burr
be directed to report on the pos
sibility of repairing the old bridge
before proceeding with estimates
on new structure.
He declares that neither HIM
self nor councilmen who support
his position have any preconceived
idea that the bridge can be repair
ed. They want to ascertain defin-
itely If 1t can or cannot be, in the
interests of economy and justice to
other parts of the city where
bridge work is needed.
The safety of repaired bridge
or of a new bridge rests upon the
word Of the expert in either event.
II he decides that the bridge can
be reinforced and made safe, it is
argued that this opinion Is exactly
as reliable as his guarantee of a
new bridge recommended by him.
There is another point in the re-
pair proposition that has been
overlooked. Under Its franchise the
w. w. p. Co. cannot be compelled
to pay cent toward the cOnstruc-
ton of new bridge and cannot be
denied use of bridge built at
Monroe st. entirely by the city.
But the council has the opinion
of Corporation Counsel Hamblen
that the company can be forced to
bear half the expense Of whatever
repairs are necessary. 1t Is esti-
mated that the present bridge can
be made safe by an expenditure of
$150,000. of which the city would
pay $4,000.
A new bridge will cost to ex-
coed 100000, practically consum-
ing the entire bond issue voted for
bridge work. AS Mr.. Pratt and his
colleagues look at 1t nearly all the
, other bridges needed must be sac
rificed to Monroe ST. If the city
builds a ne wbridge there. In view
of this they claim every justifica-
ton in first ascertaining If It Is not
possible to make the old bridge
safe until the city can stand the
drain Of the cost Of new struc-
ture. since by some huge early day
blunder the w. w. p. Co. has been
absolved from all further expense
for construction of as many new
Monroe st. bridges as may be need
ed during the life of its franchise.
But. these councilmen declare. il
the old bridge cannot be made per-
fectly safe they will favor a new
bridge regardless of cost. II the city
