COST RAILROAD
MILLIONS IN
MONEY To ENTER
WESTERN CITY

Mead, Washington, Nov. III am
sending The News under separate cover
some photographs of the new Mllwau-
kee big steel bridge spanning the Nor
row street car bridge. The bridge IS
certainly marvel of engineering skill
and a wonder in bridge building. The
structure is 769 feet in length, 152 feet
in height above the water and the
material used in the construction weighs
approximately 5000 tons. 1t cost
SIG, 500, 900. 1t has cost the Milwaukee
railroad company millions of dollars to
get into Spokane for the road had to
tunnel for a considerable distance in
order to find right of way. The tun
mel had to be blasted out Of solid rock
and it has taken about three years to
get the Improvement completed. The
road runs down on Front avenue and
all of the buildings on the north side of
the street had to be swept away, the
cost of which was tremendous. The
buildings consisted of large store build
ings, hotels and the big city hall where
the new passenger station now stands.
The passenger station is one of the
finest in construction on the continent.
The building is certainly an honor to
the Milwaukee road and credit to
Spokane of which they may all be
proud.
With all steel coaches the road is
equipped with the best up-to-date
trains and gives Spokane the best ser
vice. The freight depot occupies the
space of three blocks and the road is
doing an extensive business now.
About mile or so below the new
bridge mentioned above they have an
other large bridge. Another important
link in the coupling is the magnificent
steel trestle approaching Spokane over
the valley of the Latah. The trestie is
over 8, 900 feet long and 200 feet high
and the material used in its construc-
ton weighs 3,20J tons, one of the most
substantial structures of its kind on the
continent. If ever [ take trip back
east [ think it will be over the Mllwau-
kee road.

CITY TAX RATE

You may make arrangements to
spend little more for Christms this
year on the strength of the assurance
that your taxes will be little lower
than last year. City Clerk j. S.
Workman has figured the rate to be
s18. .27a on each 81, 900 of assessed valua~
ton. Compared with last year tie
rate is as follows:

HEAVY LOSS WHEN
SEED CORN BURNS

On Thursday afternoon building IN
which Walter Rodewald was drying
seed corn, burned with about 500 bush
els of valuable grain. The fire is sup
posed to have originated from a stove
in the building. Although large num-
ber of neighbors gathered it was impos-
sible to save but little of athe grain.
The other buildings en- the place, known
as the Capener farm on the Lake road,
were kept fronI burning. The loss is
a serious one, partly covered by insur-
ance.

Many of the above articles are cheap
er than last year. Home grown apples
were cheaper but the eastern sGock was
worth 81. SO per barrel more; cranber-
ries are % cents cheaper and potatoes
much less. With lower taxes and lower
fodder, the average citizen should be
happy.

An Apple Show

Spokane had another big apple show
this month 1t was fine. Last year a
young lady won big prize by making
a horse, saddle, bride and with man
on the back of the animal-alI out of
APPLES. The object looked fine and re-
quired about three months time to
make. Another exhibit was snake
made of apple seeds, another clock,
as we'll as numerous other objects Of
the same material.
The apple show is great attraction
and draws the crowd.
This is a great fruit country with a
big crop this year. Would like to send
a few car loads of nice Canoes and Ben
Davis apples.

But the party and the President
are strong with the people today be-
cause they have had the courage to
ignore these eroaking prophets OF
evil and to stand for the right be-
cause it was the right.
The Democratic party has no
apology to offer for its attitude on
the Panama tolls question. 1t will
not shrink from the issue and il
does not fear the peoples verdict 1t
stands fOur-square behind the Presi-
dent and unequivocally indorses his
position as he stated it in his last
message to congress: We consent
ed to the treaty: its language we ac-
cepted If We did not originate 1t. and
we are too great, too powerful. too
self-respecting a nation to interpret
with too strained or too refined a
reading the words of our own prom
ises Just because we have power
enough to give lis leave to read them
as we please. The large thing to do
is the only thing We can afford to
do"
History OF Controversy.
The sugar trust, and the wooden
trust. and the money trust, have all
crossed swords with the President
One would imagine that the shipping
trust would have learned a lesson
from the experiences OF its fellow
octopi. But such is apparently not
the case. and it is going blithely on
its way fondly hoping to befuddle
the public mind. At the risk of re-
peating some of the things | said last
week, will give brief history of
this Panama question.
In 1876 New Granada-now the
republic of Colombia-asked the
United States and England to guar
antee the neutrality of the Isthmus of
Panama in return for the privilege of
constructing a canal or railroad to
connect the two seas.
That's how England came into this
Panama problem. She was invited
in by the country which owned the
isthmus. In accepting the proposal,
President Pope declared to the SEN
ate that the object was Ito secure
to all nations the free and equal
rights of passage over the 18TH
mus
In 1850 the United States and
England signed the Clayton Bulwer
treaty binding them to construct a
canal on the Nicaragua route for
the benefit of mankind on equal
