CALDWELL COMMERCIAL CLUB PH0DS PRESENT LOCATION FOR BRIDGE

in Caldwell who were not personally
familier with the exact conditions pre-
vailing in the communities affected
by the proposed bridge, the discussion
made by representatives of the COM
munities for whose welfare the
bridges are being built, clarified the
atmosphere materially.
Mr. Ruby was the main gun in the
fight to have the bridge site immed-
lately changed. He asserted that
paved roads to Nampa hridged equal
izer and other factors with a bridge
at Pickle Butte would eliminate Cald-
we'll as the trading point for residents
OF the Gem Highway and Riverside
communities. His gloomy forecasts
were asserted to be without actual
foundation by residents of the val
legs near the bridge
Road Looks Good Now.
In reciting the history Of the fight
to vote bonds for Snake river bridges
Mr., Plowhead added another reason
for construction at Pickle Butte. if
it is at all possible when he said that
the Oregon legislature had but recent
ly failed to provide funds for a road
from Jordan Valley to Homedale and
that Jordan Valley residents were
now strongly in favor of the immed-
late completion of highway from
that section to Snake river leading to
the Pickle Butte site Construction
Of that road, according to Mr. Plow
head, would insure continued trade
with Jordan Valley Changes in the
site of the Pickle Butte bridge might
upset the plans for the highway. ac-
cording to Mr.. Plowhead.
Mr.. Ruby introduced an amendment
asking for the appointment of spec
ial committee of six club members to
wait on Governor D. w. Davis with
request that the bridge site be chang
ed After considerable discussion, the
amendment was declared out of or
der as conflicting with the original
motion.

Effort To Change Location of
Snake River Structure ReIe-
gated To Discard BY Over
wheIming Vote.

Il move that this club 60 on rec
ord in full support of the present
bridge committee; that they have
the entire confidence of this club.
That this committee inform Viii
liam Hall that so long as it is at
all feasible this club stands behind
the present site. That the COM
mittee be further informed that
if at any time it seems to be i'm
possible, because of lack Of funds
to build the bridge at the present
site, they use every effort to get
the bridge across Snake river at
Froman's Ferry or the middle
site"
Vote is Overwhelming.
Such was the motion introduced by
DR.. F. MCole as the elimination OF
a three hour effort to place the Cald-
we'll Commercial club on record Tues
day evening in favor of changed
site for the proposed Pickle Butte
bridge. In response to request tina,
a standing vote be taken, 60 members
of the club registered approval of the
motion with but one opponent. D. G
Ruby cast the only negative vote.
As discussion progressed. it became
increasingly evident that possibility
of constructing a bridge at Pickle
Butte was by no means so remote as
had been thought at the meeting &
week ago, F. H. Plowhead, afte,
carefully Analysing the situation from
the standpoint of the position that
Caldwell had taken in the past intro,
duced special delivery letter from
Mr. Hall. state commissioner of pub
lie works. which Immediately clarified
the situation and left the course Of
the club clear.
The Letter.
Mr.. Halls letter is as follows:
II note in this mornings Estates
man" AR article stating that meet
ing is to be held at Caldwell Com
mercial club this evening to discus.
the matter of changing the site of tn.
Pickle Butte bridge I regret THU
very much for the reason that thu
continual agitation of this question
has already had very bad influence
in the letting of contract for thi
work, as bidders feel that they mus
largely insure themselves against un
toward emergencies, when figuring
their bids. It also has bad influ
ence over other bridge work.
"This department has been usin,
every effort to get this work started
and I feel that nothing should b.
done to hinder it. T appreciate tn
fact that the great majority of tn
people affected are in favor of tn
selected site, and therefore believe
to be the proper and desirable site.
Negotiations looking to the lettin.
of this work and to an early start ar
well underway and proceeding salts
factorily and I trust that nothing will
occur at the meeting to upset pres
emit plans"
Yours very truly,
