THE DANGER BRIDGE
Continued from Page ~

how hard you worked to throw out the
construction of the three arch stone
bridge we still have here on our main
street, spanning the Animas river. l
swami to say right now that when you
begin to build bridges that will stand
the test this one did last year, you
Will have no trouble in securing con-
tracts, | believe you also condemned
this bridge which was designed and
constructed by local engineers and
contractors. | have authority which
have reason to believe is just as
good, If not better than yourself,
which says, that the suspension bridge
just contracted for is a very good
bridge and perfectly safe for the trav-
ell that it was designed for, and |
want you and all others concerned to
understand that it was not designed
to carry fifteen and thirty-ton tractors
or road rollers, nor several hundred
head of cattle. Ii the specifications
are complied with when purchasing
the cables for this bridge it will have
much greater strength than you
have figured them, the safety factor
you mentioned is not necessary for
this bridge and the strain in cables
with the DETECTION shown on plan, is
considerable less than you state, the
stiffening trusses | will have painted
instead of covering them with wall
paper as you have suggested. You
also state that the plans for suspen-
sion bridge does not show any depth
for pier, l claim it and the specifi-
cations call for a depth from three
to four feet lower than your own.
You say that yours were to go three
feet below low water and to be six feet
below ground, now isn't it fact that
the low water is running three to
four feet deep, your span is ten feet
shorter, which shortage would have
bring your abutment into the edge of
said running water. Instead of being
six feet into ground you would nei-
ther touch ground with your concrete
abutment on bottom or sides and have
about one foot of water running be-
tween the bottom of abutment and
the river bed.
You would have people believe that
the suspension bridge had only 1-6
feet by 10 feet floor beam its entire
length. Mr.. Patterson l would like
to ask, if you ever saw the plans
