The cable| bridge Over the stream just south of this city has been condemned by the bridge commissioner. These structures are comparatively new bridges and ought to be in as good condition as the day they were built. Their giving way is evidence that the cable bridge is a failure and be j cause they are cheap it is not econo my to put them over streams, espe- | cially on a road in constant use. In bridging the streams it is certainly the best policy to put up nothing} but the best steel structures. It is better for the county, safer for the traveling public and cheaper for the tax payer We would advise the court sgainst a waste in building eable bridges in this county, as they will not stand constant use. ; Criminal Cases Disposed of, Judge Lay dismissed the cases against the Weasts after the jury failed to agree.
