THE PROS AND CONS
 0F BRIDGE ARGUMENT
A Few Matters for the Consideration of the Voters by the Tempe Com nittee.

We want to present a few facts to the taxpayers for their consideration. The so-called bonus offered by some one towards the construction of the Center street bridge to date has not been guaranteed by anyone. The few Indians who were to aid in the con- struction of the bridge at Center street will not do so now because it was misrepresented to them that they would have to pay to cross the bridge if they did not work free upon it's construction. MT. Heard said that the bridge company would put up a bond guaranteeing the permanence of the bridge. This is denied by representa- tives of the bridge company. Mer- chants of Phoenix had insertions plac- ed in their advertisements by the Cen ter street committee without their con- sent or approval An offer of funds to pay for subsistence for the Indians was secured from the government by representing that the Center street bridge was to be toll bridge. The aid of the Phoenix merchants is asked because of the trade they will secure when it is the intention of the pro- motors to build a town across the river and secure this south side and Indian trade to themselves. MT. Gage, MT. Kingsbury. the Tempe Land and Improvement company and other own CTS in the Tempe district are signed with the Water Users association. The Tempe canal has not been turned over to the association and MT. Heard is one of the principal owners who from the first has opposed the turning over of this canal. None of MT. Heard's land is signed up. The Center street committee has from the first attempted to take the matter of deciding the type and length of bridge out of the hands of the board of supervisors. They even state all these things in their petition, making if a question whether or not the supervisors would not be compelled to build their selec- ton should the taxpayers ratify their choice of location. The prospectus is sued by that committee contains state ments that they themselves know are not so.
 Do you think it fair to the laboring men of Phoenix. that the Indians, part ly supported by the government should be asked to give s10,O00 worth of la bor to the building of this bridge? White labor in competition with In- dian labor, and this rich county asked to sanction this action of the Center stree committee. The latest is the statement that 400. or was it 4,000. people crossed the Center street cross ing in twelve hours. when there are about twenty registered voters in the precinct. What is the use? Gentle men, you can have the dog.

being known by both Mir. Fowler and Mir. Heard they should not have all lowed the things concerning Tempe and the irrigating canal to have been published in the Center Street Bridge poster. for it has been done to poison and prejudice the minds of the voters who are interested in the Water Users association. The Tempe Canal com pany, being a joint stock company. as an association could not of itself go into the Water Users association, only the stockholders of the association have a right to come in, and, as I have stated before. a great many of these stockholders are members of that as sociation, which the books of the as sociation will show. Now if the Bart lett Heard Land and Cattle company wants to be fair let them go before the association and put into the asse- citation their seven and one-eighth share of water in the Tempe canal, worth something over S50,000, and their stock in the Tempe pumping plant, and their private pumping plant worth perhaps half as much, and all thelr lands under the Tempe canal, and aft CT this is done they may come back and accuse the people of Tempe. and the stockholders of the Tempe canal of trying to keep out of the reservoir but until this is done we think that the bridge committee would show bet ter taste to keep silent about these matters If any taxpayer wants to be- come more familiar with the lands un- der the san Francisco ditch and the Wormser extension of the Tempe ca nal they may study the cut, No 7, on the Center Street Bridge folder.

When the veterans of the U.OJI posts of the Grand Army of the Re
 public assemble for the rOll-call on
 Memorial day. the gaps in the ranks will be greater than ever before. for records in Chicago show that since May 30. 1908. nearly fifteen thousand comrades have passed to the last muster The army now numbers bare " 100000. Less than twenty years ago there was double that number, and even on December 31. 1907. the various departments showed a total membership of 225.157. One by one. however. and two by two. the men who fought at Gettysburg and Chancellors- vile and Antietam have dropped from the ranks. and each year fewer voices have answered to the rOll-call. The death rate that twenty years ago was less than one per cent. has now in creased to per cent. Slowly but sure ly the ranks of the equally brave con- federate veterans have dwindled until today but a tithe remain of Farlv's men and Morgan's troopers. and the almost invincible armies of Lee and Beauregard. Not all the survivors are included in organizations, however. The rolls of the government still car ried on the first of this month the names of col. .699 veterans of the civil war.

proved showing made in 1908 This is confirmed by the statement of the Chicago statistician for the railways that the feverish rush of prosperity" had much to do with the high death rate in train accidents. Meanwhile. however. the death rate of .'trespass- CTS, children and people who didn't see the train coming maintains it's normal, grisly record. over six thou sand men, women and children each year. Blame for this great annual holocaust is laid both upon the rail- ways and upon the public officials who fail notoriously in the United States to guard railway tracks and crossings in the United States as they do abroad particularly in England. The rail- ways, under compulsion, are spending many millions to elevate their tracks in large cities; in Chicago the cost to date having been about fifty mill- ion dollars, with sixty millions more to be done The states and cities have been criminally negligent in fail ure to police the rights of way of steam railways and to provide laws and warnings which will deter chil- dren and adults from trespassing or taking such risks. risks that would subject persons to prompt arrest in England" declares a bulletin issued by a league of public safety which has begun agitation for better public protection "The steam railways last year killed 5.56O trespassers' and $40 who were not passing-sixteen times as many as were killed in the train acidents about which so much is heard Adequate steps have not been taken to keen people aw"~ f'~m this juggernaut, 23OOOO miles long"
