ed off Mr. Smith when he came thru

detained here for several hours for
the Auburn sheriff but as he did not

eral auto mishaps on the way up

WILL PURCHASE
LOU'VILLE BRIDGE
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF CASS
AND SARPY COUNTIES TO
MAKE PURCHASE.
WON'T GIVE PRICE ON BRIDGE
Board Will Have Petition Filed in
Court to Reduce Rates on Only
Tell Bridge in State.
From Saturday's rail.
The county commissioners of Cass
and Sarpy counties yesterday after
noon at their joint session took -ic-tion
that will limit the toll bridges in
the state of Nebraska to one the
auto and wagon bridge over tre
rintte, north of the city. At the
present time there are only two in
Nebraska, the one at Louisville and
the one here and the two boards
agreed to the proposal for the pur
chase of the Louisville bridge and in
a very short time the bridge will
undoubtedly be turned over to the
counties.
The Louisville bridge company has
made a very pleasing offer to the
two counties and the state and as
soon as the ftate takes a survey of
the bridge at Louisville and gets a
physical valuation, the bridge will
no doubt be transferred.
The purchase of the Plattsmouth
auto and wagon bridge vas the main
object of the meeting, which was ad
journed from late in August, in or
der to get an offer on the purchase
of the bridge from T. H. Pollock, the
owner of the structure in response
to the offer of ?20.000 made by the
boards of Cass and Sarpy counties
last month. When Messrs. Fred
C.order, C. F. Harri3 and George L.
Farley, the Cass county commission
ers; George Lill3 E. R. Bell and
Jacob Ehler, the Sarpy county com
missioners, met yesterday with State
Engineer Cochran, there was no of
fer received as to the price asked for
by the board or on the acceptance of
the price set by the commissioners
and this accordingly precluded the
purchase of the local bridge and the
commissioners took up the matter of
securing the Louisville bridge.
The Plattsmouth bridge has had
the precedent in the state department
for action and it was quite a dis
appointment to the state engineer
and the commissioners that some re
lief could not be secured in response
to the often made requests for a free
bridge on the part of the residents
of the southeastern portion of the
state living on and near the King of
Trails and George Washington Na
tional Highway. The fact of the
bridge here not being a free bridge
has also checked the carrying out of
the federal roid building program aa
the government will not work a road
within two miles of a toll bridge.
Had the funds in the state depart
ment of public works been available
for the construction of a new bridge
here the proposition would have
been taken up at once but the sum
needed was not on hand anil will
make the erection of a new bridge
a matter of the distant future.
In order to give some relief to the
traveling public, the two county
boards of Casi and Sarpy counties as
well as Mayor John P. Sattler of this
city, signed a petition to the district
court to ask that the toll rates now
in force at the bridge be reduced 40
per cent and the matter will be pre
sented to the district court at once
to secure some action by the time
that tiie Louisville bridge is taken
over by tlie county.
The purchase of the Louisville
bridge and its conversion into a free
bridge as soon as the purchase price
is secured back in tolls, wil greatly
increase the tourist travel through
that locality and especially from
those who are out for a day's outing
in this section of the state and who
will travel via the Louisville line.
