BOULEVARD To Join
BRIDGES APPROVED
BY WORKS BOARD

AS preliminary step to Joining the
proposed South Richmond bridge and
the new bridge to be erected at Main
street on the west bank of the river.
the board OF public works today passed
declaratory resolution for the open
ing of Whitewater boulevard, extend
ing along the west river bank from
Southwest e street to National ave.
City Engineer Charles informed the
board that the benefits derived from
such an Improvement would offset all
possible damages to affected property
owners. 1t would not be the policy OF
the board to improve Whitewater bou-
levard until work on the construction
of the two new bridges is well under
Roadway.
The board today also considered a
petition for the improving of South

MRS. LEWIS SPEAKS
TO FRANCHISE LEAGUE

Mrs. w. 0. Lewis gave most in
teresting talk to the members of the
Franchise League in the Morrisson-
Reeves Library Friday afternoon.
She related her experiences as a
campaign worker for suffrage, in North
Dakota In the fall of 1914, she started
from her home on four days trip
stump speaking, but before she return
ed, she had been at her work for five
strenuous weeks. Never had she work
ed harder nor found work more fasci-
mating. Every day and often twice a
day she and her co-worl1ers spoke in
towns and in the country;
They found much opposition in the
activity of the Ants and at one
time were threatened with arrest.
North Dakota, as we'll as nearly ali
the western states, has some form of
suffrage.
Mrs. Lewis is graduate of Indiana
University and is now teaching in the
public schools.

that Mr.. Watson, as candidate for

was because he had lost his popularity
in his district that he ceased to be a
candidate for Congress and sought the
gubernatorial nomination.
