SOME timo since our corporation
board passed an ordinance reading
as follows:
"The railroad cooperation known as the
p. TT. w. IS q. railroad company are
hereby ordered and required to remove
all bents, embankments or other obslrucis
ions along The line OF said railroad now
existing within the limits oil the highway

road. Provided however, anu il is hereby
declared to be the meaning of this ordi-
nance, that in case said railroad corpora

said Michigan road. built of stone and
not exceeding six feet thick,
The remaining portion Of tho or
dinance ends up in the usual style.
Its publication cost S12; and the
members of the board were paid
literally Tor meeting and concurring
in its passage. The time allotted
to the railroad company has long
since expired and our eyes have not
been gladaened with the sight of "a
new bridge. One Of two thing stands
confessed: The democratic board
issued an cdict outside Of their
realm Of power, or else our succ eed.
ing board IS too shiftless to execute
the just DEGREES OF their predecess-
ors. At all events the whole mat
ter seems 10 have dropped still bern
into the public lap.
AS the bridge now is, it is an eye
sore, promine 1T upon the public fea
lures. Farmers load their teams
with hay in q manner rendering
passage beneath the bridge possible;
and sigh for better accommodations.
Perhaps, however, We arc unjust
in asking the present board to keep
