BUILD TWO BRIDGES MOW
TO MAKE REAL SAVINGS
SOUTH SIDE FM SAY
City Statistics
That the county could save thou
sands of dollars on the construction of
the Main street bridge and the South
Side bridge If the commissioners
would decide to build both bridges
and would let the contracts at the
same time, Is the opinion ot property
owners on the South Side who axe
anxious to have the South Side, bridge
built within the next few years. They
argue that by next year the South
Side bridge sinking fund will be al
most large enough to pay for a bridge.
This money cannot be used for any
other purpose and since the bridge
must be built it would be advisable to
let "both contracts at once, allowing
the contractors to offer a better price
on both of them.
Since the Main street bridge ques
tion took form there is considerable
fear among the South Slders that the
Ottamlssioners will shelve the south
Me bridge problem for the time being
because of the overshadowing import
ance of the Main street question. The

commissioners, however, Insist that
the south side bridge project will not
be dropped as has been Intimated but
that both bridges will be built within
the next two or three years.
Should the commissioners decide
the first ot the year to build a bridge
on the South . Side, the sinking fund
would be available and by the time1 the
bridge would be completed there would
be enough) money, in the fund to pay
for the structure. It is not believed that
a . bridge will cost more than $125,000.
The site has not been determined.
The negotiations now pending be
tween the county commissioners and
the C. & O. railroad company relative
to the change of the right of way
through the city, will affect the site
of the South Side bridge as well as
the site of the Main street bridge. If
the C. & O. railroad can be Induced to
eliminate the grade crossing at Main
street, the commissioners are consider
ing the construction of a bridge built
on a level.

MASS MEETING CALLED
TO DISCUSS PIM FOR
MAIN STREET BRIDGE
At an informal meeting of interest
ed' representative citizens of Rich
mond and vicinity, it was unanimously
decided that in nrrtAr tn ha nf thA
greatest possible assistance to - the
Doara o county commissioners and to
the county council, and to furnish a
medium through -which the taxpayers
may be able to express their wishes
and preferences in reference to the
construction of a permanent bridge to
span the river at Main street, there
should . be appointed a citizens com
mittee of not less than one hundred
men representing all parts of the
county to assist in devising ways and
means to construct a permanent con
crete bridge in keeping with the his
tory and importance of the great high
way of which it is an Integral part
and the extensive communities accom
modated by such a structure.
This action is in no sense intended
to reflect on the integrity and ability
of the commissioners or council, but
to be of use to them in helping to
overcome whatever difficulties may
stand in- the way of the realization
and consummation of a model struc
ture that shall not only serve this gen
eration but for generations to follow,
in accordance with the wishes or the
great majority of the taxpayers of the
county.
- By the construction of this kind of a
bridge, it is believed it will not be
long until the citizens will be able to
secure not only, state but federal aid
in the construction of . the greatest
continental thoroughfare in all the
worldr
In order to perfect and complete
these plans, it was decided to call a
meeting in the large dining room at
the Westcott hotel for a noon luncheon
on Wednesday next, December 28. It
is expected from 100 to 200 men will
be present on that occasion Service
will begin promptly at. six - minutes
after twelve o'clock.

GRIP EPIDEMIC
CLAIMS VICTIMS
NUMBERING 200
According to statements made by
local physicians today there is an
epidemic of grip spreading over the
country and it has hit Richmond
pretty hard it being estimated that
physicians are attending over 200
people suffering from the disease.
The epidemic is thought to have
started in the east and spread rapidly
westward begining to mow down its
victims about two weeks ago.
Physicians attribute the spread of
the disease to the Inclement weather
of the last two weeks. Richmond has
been treated to every variety the
weather man has. Rain, snow, and
sleet with a few warm days interven
ing has boomed the stock of the doc
tors at the cost of much suffering on
the part of those unfortunate enough
to be stricken.
