BRIDGE AND
PIPE DEAL
BOTH BAD
Nothing wmi done on the
IVrkiins bridge deal this
morning. The city attorney
will prepare the legislation
to narrow the street, for
Perkins and Seymour,
Woods ami Weeks have
pledged faith that they will
go through with the deal. It
will likely come up Wednes
day.
When HiR HusineHs falls out, the
people have a chance to come into
their rights.
Th<>ro is just one thing for the
people in the big fight that has
started between Everett Griggs
and Sam Perkins. Each may help
to balk the other and the people
will win both ways.
Otherwise they might just as
well go up to the Union club and
settle It at draw poker, or with
brickbats in the alley behind.

Ing Seymour and two commission
ers Into making a funnel-shaped
opening to the 11th street bridge
in order to help himself is an out
rage.
The major is right.
Seymour and the two commis
sioners will certainly hear from I
the people on that.
And Perkins hollers that the
Grlggu company must not put
knotty staves into the city pipe
line.
And Perkins is right.
That pipe I>'l(> is 100 importniit
to In- trifled with. If staves with
knots in them arc no «<><"!, Til
coma doesn't want them. If they
are, though selling for less ill the
open market, Taconiu must no get
the benefit of it.
So go to it, Major. Oo to it, S;mi.
The people have made a pretty
shrewd guess as to your motive?,
but if you both can each can skin

This Is the continual wail today of John Reoh, Italian

Insanity, it was learned today, will be the plea of the de
