The Star today, on behalf of Seattle, pays off Bob Bridges... It isn’t much, but it's probably all he'll ever get. : When young Mr. Ayers came out of the East with his hare- |brained scheme to build a terminal on Harbor Island, pretty nearly. ithe whole town went mad with enthusiasm. But Bob Bridges refused ito enthuse. He saw the joker in the much-touted scheme. He said it was a fake. Single-handed he fought the “Ayers syndicate,” and the Ayers |newspapers. He alone weathered the brain-storm which threatened to isweep Seattle off its feet. When others faltered, Bridges stood firm. Even when the resolute president of the port commission, General |Chittenden, wavered, and Remsberg vacillated, Bob Bridges refused to budge. He was against the Ayers scheme and he fought the Ayers scheme single handed. Even The Star, which didn’t believe in the crooked plan, and said so, didn’t, however, come out and fight it as Bridges did. Bridges will tell you that without The Star's nis his fight would have been hopeless, but we think Bridges is too kind. We confess, and we do it frankly, that for once when a real worth while battle was on, The Star didn’t don its fighting togs, AND THE STAR WAS NOT ON THE FIRING LINE. Bob Bridges was there. AND ALONE? Bridges was the target for brickbats of venom and abuse, slander, calumny, hatred and misrepresentation. He didn’t dodge. He hit back. Everybody had it in for Bridges. The best anybody could say of him was that he was as stubborn as a mule and as blind as a bat be- cause he was not heart and soul for the Ayers fake. And now he’s vindicated. In six short months the city has been cured of its folly. Bridges didn’t expect Seattle to learn its lesson so lsoon. But for Bob Bridges we would have gone on tn our folly, and the \Seaport of Success would have become the laughing stock of the coast. It’s a mighty debt of gratitude Seattle owes you, Bob Bridges. You hadn’t a single selfish interest to serve by being “stubborn.” You got no pay for being unpopular. This little bouquet handed you by The Star is perhaps qll you'll ever get for your service. ‘ At that, The Star ts mighty glad to hand this beuquet to you. And we wish there were more men in the public’service as “bullheaded” and “stubborn” as yout. 3 aay os eX LB
