across the Cowlitz rover on the Pa
cific highway, was dedicated. State
notables were in attendance. includ-
ing Governor Hart, Congressman
Johnson. Commissioner Allen and
others. Addresses were made by
Gov. Hart and Congressman johnson.
The bridge was built at an approx
innate cost of $4,000. The sub
structure is three concrete piers in
the bed of the river, IS, % and rs
feet below low water mark Concrete
abutments at each end of the bridge,
with wings for retaining walls are a
feature. A cluster of electric lights
is provided on each of the wing walls.
There are four steel spans. each 120
feet long. The length from end to
end of steel is 720 feet, one of the
longest bridges in the state. A four.

The bridge was built by the state,
and replaces a wooden structure long
outgrown, and which has been par
TALLY washed out several times, owing
to the swift current of the river here,
and it's inclination to change channels
occasionally.

chap, a man of mature years but who took a
kindly view of things in general man look

but occupied much time. Local conditions
were discussed in a friendly way and plans to
alleviate the conditions of existing turmoil form
ed q part of the conversation. Only one def
nate conclusion for q successful elimination. of
the difficulties was arrived at, offered by the
farmers and workers newspaper Representa-

agreed with him, do the speaking as taken from

Bennett Opens Fight
On Primary Nominees

Former Senator William NJ. Bennett,
johnson candidate for delegate-at-
large sfrom New York to the Chicago
convention, yesterday began an attack
aimed at preventing ex-senator Chaun-
cey M. Depew, George Cromwell, Or.
Nicholas Murray Butler, Charles u.
Hilles, former chairman Of the Repub-
licsn National Committee; Edward M.
Morgan and John J. Lyons from having
their names retained on the regular
organization primary ballot in the nth,
10Th and 21st districts.
The protest against the petitions in
the 11th District, where Mr., Depew
and Mr.. Cromwell are candidates, is
based upon the contention that four
different petitions were filed, none Of
which contained the number of sigma
lures required by law. 1t is specified
in the election law that any number
Of petitions bound together and filed
together shall be regarded as one petit
tion. Bennett points out that the four
petitions in the 18th District were
filed separately and are indexed as
separate petitions.
Bennett contends that the petitions
in the 10Th and 21st districts should
be declared invalid because many of
the signatures are not auth enticated
and because many groups of names on
them were apparently written by the
same person. Should Bennett succeed
in establishing the illegality Of these
petitions it would leave only the John
son nominees on the ballots in these
districts.
