SETTLED.-There was lately small
speck OF war between the counties Of
Brooke and Ohio in regard to the share
each county should pay for building
the new bridge over Short Creek, which
divides the two counties. Ohio county's
Board of Commissioners passed an or
der at its last session to pay one-half Of
the expense for the bridge. Brooke
county claimed that each county should
pay pro rata according to her assessed
valuation, and law suit between the
two doomed up huge and big. 1t ap-
peare, however, that Brooke has back
ed down from her position, and will
pay an equal proportion Of the cost
with this county, as indeed, is only just
and right.
