1 J I if i ;1 Hi f H ! J i 'Nebraska '" BRIDGE OWNERS . OBJECT TO SALE . likely State May Be Forced to Build Another Bridge in Case, . Ashland ToU Structure Is ' ' Not Handed Over. (From a Staff Corrcipondant.) , ' Lincoln; NeS Oct 10. (Special.--, Progress of acquiring proprietorship of the" Ashland toll bridge m conjunc tionwith Saundcr county has halted. the rumor being that certain stock holders among the farmers who own a good share of the stock, are unwill ing to give up their boldings. The owners of the Ashland bridge find themselves facing tw proposi- . none., j - 'i-v :- - ... One of these is. that the state will build a new free ' bridze across the Platte river at some near point, prob ably the tatv hatcheries, whicn win necessitate moving the Omaha-Lincoln-Denver "automobile route to that point This will mean that- Ashland will not be on the 0. L. D. route, which is .a proposition which , will probably not mecl with very , much favor. by the Ashland business men. According to the report filed with the railway commission, the bridge has been paying a 20 per cent income to its stockholders. The railway commission considers that the bridge is a. common carrier and therefore under a ruling cannot pay its owners more than 7 per cent It is understood, that both the rail commission and the state board of ir rigation, and highways is prepared to act on both directions in case the bridge company does not accept the offer of the state of the amount made. With a free bridge across the same river at a near point it is not likely, that the toll bridge will be a , very heavy paying proposition in ' the' future. &:kJ'WIX,-,;;a Notes From Beatrice! &:?4a v;.4 vr-.Anrf Gage County ; Beatrice Neb., Oct; 10.
