COMMERCIAL
CLUB FAvORS
BOND ISSUE

The rank and file of the
Commercial club is today
in favor of the $87, 900
municipal street railway
bonds to be submitted to
the people next Saturday,
indicating that the senti-
ment of the business men
of Tacoma was for imme-
diate development of the
tidefiats.
By a vote of "a to Al at
the "forum" dinner given
last night the club went
on record as favoring not
only the issuance of bonds
for the railway but the
maintenance and opera
tion of the line.
President Scofield, declaring
that the vote did not represent the
entire membership of the club, in
troduced a motion to reconsider
the question, but 1t was lost.
President Shackleford of the
local street railway company
opened the discussion, the tenor
of his remarks being that the
company was ready to negotiate
with the city on any reasonable
basis to go over the flats. The
apparent object of Judge Shackle-
fords speech was to show that it
is not necessary to go into muni-
cipal ownership to get street car
service on the flats.
Nelson Bennett, E. P. Savage
and Judge Stallcup sounded a
discordant wall against any more
bonds for any purpose.
P. H. Hebb declared for the
municipal street railway bonds
and said if the people vote them
the city will then have a club to
force the street railway company
to do business
Mayor Seymour and Commits
sioner Mills both talked for the
proposition. Mills said the day
of dickering with the Stone-Web-
ster people was past and it Is up
to the people to vote the bonds
and build and operate the line.
The municipal affairs commit
tee of the club endorsed the $1S,-
600 road bonds, w. B. Coiner and
Walter ]. Thompson both speak
ing for them also. The commit
tee thought some of the sewer
propositions needed and some,
were not.
L. w. Pratt made plea for
subscriptions to ST. Joseph's new
hospital fund.

The foregoing section of the city charter abso-
lutely prohibits the T. r. p. any other private
company from ever putting street railway over the
tidefats The Eleventh street high bridge cost
$6OOOOO, and the Puyallup river bridge $4,000.
That means that before the company could ever turn
wheel on either bridge it would have to pay into
the city treasury practically $3750OO.
Additional charter provisions also provide that
the company would also have to pay half the cost Of
maintenance for the bridges after paying half the
COST
bill.
The city charter absolutely prohibits by these
provisions any possible deal with Stone Webster or
any other private enterprise to put street rail
way on the flats, as the amount they would have to
pay is more than the profits of the line would be in
the life OF any franchise that might be granted

BY VIM. G. Shepherd.


LONDON, May 81 have just
watched Chevillard turn a cart
wheel in an aeroplane!
He is the first man In the
world ever to do it!
My heart turned a somersault
as l watched him.
He says that he thinks 1t pos
sible to "loop-the-loop" in his
Breguet machine, but I'm sure no
one will want to see him try it,,
after seeing his cartwheel!
Chevillard is daredevil
Frenehman who is flying at
Hendon field, near London. He
does his cartwheel in the air like
this:
First he gains a height of
500 feet.
He begins to fly in a circle.
The circle grows narrower
and narrower; the tilt of the
machine grows sleeper and
sleeper.
Suddenly, you see the ma
chine take a strange flop. It
drops about 800 feet, appar-
emily. In dropping, it turns
end for end!
Your heart does the same!
And just when you put
your hands to your eyes and
ears to keep out the sight
and sound of the crash,
Chevillard straightens out on
the air and strikes the earth
as easily as q bird.
