THE FALLS CUV TRIBUNE , FRIDAY , SEPTEMBER 20 , 1907
About Blake Bridge
The Falls City Journal in con
tinuing its policy of trying lo
force tlic business interests of
this city to purchase what re.
mains of its so called newspaper ,
has again attacked the Gilllgan
company by making false char
ges concerning the profit made
on what is known as the Blake
bridge.
Every business institution is
entitled to a profit on its busi
ness. Every institution that
continues in business docs not
make a profit on its business.
The Gilligan company is no ex
ception to this rule. If at the
end of the year Mr. LyfordSam
Wahl , George Cleveland. Ohas.
Hargrave or any other local concern -
cern makes a profit on the years
work \ve see no jood reason why
they should be compelled to
show the cost mark < m every
piece of goods sold. However ,
the attempt of the .Journal to
follow its rule or ruin policy with
the Gilligan company , and the
false charges the paper contmu
ally maker * against the company
makes it necessary to show up ,
the lllake bridge in its true
light.
The following material was
put in the Mlahe bridue at the
prices quoted. Mr. Graham
said over the 'phone that he
charged tlu > same price on fir
that is charged in thin itemized
account.

The Journal says that Graham
made a price of $8000 on this
bill. We are authorized by the
Gilligan company to state that
they will buy all the lumber that
Graham or any other lumber
man in the county will furnish
at the price named in the Jour
nal , and that In so doing the
company will make far more
money than it can possibly make
in the bridge business. This
bill has been submitted to other
lumber dealers in the county
and ench one snys the price char-
ued is reasonable. More than
that , there are now on tile with
the county clerk seven bills of
three Richardson county lum
berman living outside of Palls
City and the same price is char
ged as was charged by the Gilli
gan company.
In addition to the lumber in
this bill the eompany furnished
all tools and labor and received
$177 , for the work and material.
According to t li t ? Journal's
own Figures the company made
but If ) per cent profit on the
work ; out of which it must pay
all office expenses such as rent t
book keeping , labor , stationery
and many other details known
by business men.
If you have any doubt as tc
the justness of this charge please
o to your local lumberman and
ask him whether or not the price
is reasonable and whetheror nol
he will furnish the bill for $80

This is the first campaign it
Nebraska in which politica
bosses cut no figure. Th
people will nominate the can
didates and afterwards elect
them. You are one of the
people and should take an
active interest in these
primaries and elections here
after. Politic troai now on
means a square deal for the
masses ; lower passenger rates ,
lower freight rates , less extor
tion by trusts and combinations.
These things can only bo
accomplished by every honest
voter making it a part of his
business. The people can only
know what is really going on
. by reading the newspapers.
But you ought to read a news ,
paper that can print the truth
about all the candidates ; "a
paper that has no self-interest
, in politics ; xwhose owners are
, not ofilce-liolders or oftice.seek-
ors. The publishers think the
State Journal is such a paper
and in order to prove it to you
make the special offer of only
50 cents from now until after
e election ; seventy-five cents if
you want the Sunday also.

order the more you yet tor your

When Stars no Out.
A young girl once asked a
bishop if he thought it was
vicked for a girl to use a
'swear-word'1 beginning with
1 , The bishop replied by ask-
ng her ii she didn't think it
vas vulgar to do so.
Leaving wickedness out of
he question , the idea of a
, roung- girl a pretty , dainty
irl being vulgar is most
.bhorrent . to any rightminded
icrson. Many girls use slang ,
and think it is smart. I do not
believe that many are profane.
But slang from the lips of a
young girl is , to say the least ,
unbecoming ; and , my dear , do
rot believe for a moment that
your boy acquaintances think
t is witty for you to use slang :
.hey do not. Behind your back
they criticize you for it , and to
four face they treat you with
ess respect than you would
otherwise command.
A high-school teacher re-
cenlly talked to her class of

Youth's Companion. Here is a

ineot which you should read ,
tnd read again , and take
seriously to heart.
"It is hard for you girls to
realize the subtle influence you
lave on boys of your own age
tnd younger. They idealize
you ; they depend on you to be
innocent , pure , ' good. You
may shrug your shoulders and
say you don't care what this or
that boy thinks of you , butyou
ought to care and deeply
every time an ignoble act or
careless word of your robs any
boy of an ideal which might
have lighted him through dark
places in his life but for you
tie may seem to forget about it
he may act the same to you
but oh , 'How little forgive
ness counts when a star goes

Love is called the greates

could be no love without human

exprest it years ago. "Th
cure for all the ills and wrongs
the cares , the sorrows , and th
crimes of humanity , all lie i :
that one word love ; it is th
divine vitality that everywher

Tallest Building in the World

A few more stories remain to be
built and when the towering pile
of steel and masonry is tinislied it
will be 17 stories high and 012
feet from tire sidewalk on Broad
way to the pinnacle. This gianl
skyscraper will be the highest oc
cupied building in the world and
svill overelop all olher existing
structures except the Eiffel tower
in Paris. When completed a time
ball will drop every hour from a
pole on top of the building and at
night the falling hour globe will
illuminated by three lights , which
will play upon it constantly.
'The foundation of this colossal
building is Bet in solid bedrock 90
feet below the level of the Hide-
walk. On the bedrock were built
caissons of cement. A heavy steel
body laid over the caissons forms
the miderbody of the structure , 1-1
floors of which comprise the main
section of the building , from
which iises the tower up to 47
stories , with its scores of oilice
rooms. The engineers say the
total weight of steel and masonry
in the tower is 1SW5 ; tons , while
nearly 10,000 tons of steel have
bet'ii need in the framework.
Eighteen elevators will carry the
2f)00 tenants to their ofiices.
Fifteen thousand incandescent
lights , suflicu'nt , the engineers
say , to htfht a town of 25,000 in
habitants , will illuminate the
rooms ami hallways for late ollict
workers. Fifteen miles of pipe
will be required for steam am
water purposes. A n immense ,
copper lantern will form the pin
nacle of the building , from whicl
at night a powerful searchligh
will flash forthfurnishing a beacon
to mariners , and will be visuble
more tlnui ( SO miles at sea.
The fact that Roseoe Anderson
failed to secure the nomination for
judge of Richardson county at the
primary lust week is very much re
gretted by a number of his Te
cumseh friends not so much at
Roseoe'd defeat , but Claude Linn
and Jim Davis of Ilumbcldt had
promised that if Mr. Anderson
was nominated they would arrange
a big banquet for himself and
friends some of whom were to be
invited from Tecumseh and the
menu was to consist1 of Rocky
Mountain oysters fried , stewed or
raw. It is a great disappointment
and Mr. Andei > on should have
made a more determined effort
when he knew what was at stake.
