Bridge Contract Aparded On
Thursday last the Commissioners Of
Carroll and Frederick counties awarded
the contract for building the bridge
over Double Pipe Creek to Mr.. Finley,
Of York county, Pa, agent Of the Amer,
lean Iron Bridge Building Company,
for $3.50 The contract for the stone
work and filling was awarded to Mr..
NJ. Anders, of Woodsboro', Frederick
county, for $500 The bidding was
quite spirited, no less than three Iron
Bridge Building Companies being repre-.
scented by active and energetic agents.
There were nine bids in all, and it is
remarkable how close the bids ran The
extreme difference for iron structures
being only $3.50, and between two of
these it was only 500; while individual
bids ran above regular companies as
much as $3.50, which demonstrates
the fact that bridge building is and
ought to be n regular business, con
Quoted upon correct business principles.
The bids for wooden structures were
equally close, $3.50 being the difference
between the highest and lowest bids I;
showing that the value of wood as we'll
as iron is understood by practical men
The same feature is apparent in the
bids for the stone work, 80 cents per
cubic yard being the difference between
regular stone masons, while the bids of
those who are not mechanics were as
much as S605 above the price per yard
mechanics offered to do the work for.
There being but little difference in the
price between wooden and iron super.
structures. the Commissioners very
wisely concluded to build an iron bridge
The location Of this bridge is different
from many others. 1t is net built over
a stream in dense forest of wood land,
or on some bill side, where none but
the passer-over ever sees it, aud he
speaking well of it only because it car.
ried him safe over, but in an open aud
highly improved country, in the midst

resting against the walls of an extensive
merchant mill, aud the other almost

ton bridge 1900 feet long, Is feet

sides aud peaked roof, would be an un.
