Alter year and half Of pickering
and clashing OF local interests and the more
than usual turmoil and strife between con-
tractors, Toledo has at last got a bridge
spanning the river between that city and
East Toledo, that is creditable alike to that
city and the contractors, the Smith Bridge
Company. 1T was thrown open to the pub
lie one week ago last Sunday, or August
31st, 1884, and from the elevation and
substantial manner in which il is built II
has evidently come to stay-at least until
a much severer flood reaches this section
than has ever vet visited it, The total cost
is estimated at a quarter of million OF
dollars, and it would he more than fifteen
cents in the pocket OF Toledo if it should

part in the debate or pass an opinion as to
the merits of the case. He occupies the
neutral ground from the fact OF his total

the fact that Katy is to be held innocent
until proven guilty.

note of inquiry this morning. He learns
that the corporation and individuals are
using stone bought at quarres IN Lucas
county, hauling the same from ten to
fifteen miles, and he says they did 40 from
the fact that they did not know of his
quarry at Lime City. He has kept an ad.
vertisement in the JOURNAL for several
months past, and is now desirous to know
, how he is to reach the officials and citi-
zens in this community if not through the
local paper. As all OF the town officials
and the majority Of citizens have direct
access to the columns OF the JOURNAL
