The POllce jury OF tne PARISH Va

Element with the v. S. & P. Railroad
Company for taxes due the parish and
to consider, also, the bridge question.
The tax question was first taken up
and disposed of. A compromise Was
arrived at by which the company will
settle its taxes upon the basis of settle.
ment with the State. We consider the
compromise fair and equitable both to
the company and the parish. The
parish will receive, under the compro-
mise, In round numbers, $1,000.
After this matter was disposed of the
Police Jury and the City Council met
in Joint session to consider the bridge
question. 1t was given the thought
and consideration so important
measure deserved. The Railroad Cons
pany, the Police Jury and the City
Council seemed to recognize the vital
importance of the measure and the
interest the people felt In 1t, end seemed
disposed to make liberal concessions.
The following agreement, substantially.
was finally adopted by ordinances OF
the Police Jury and City Council
The Police Jury grants the franchise
to operate free bridge for general
traffic to the Railroad Company for ten
years and appropriates $1,000 out Of
the taxes due the Parish by the Rail-
road Company to do the necessary
work on the bridge and maintain Y
after completion. The City Council
appropriates 5000 for the same pur
pose. In addition to this the Railroad
Company will be exempted from taxa
ton for ten years after completion
dating from 1885.
! In consideration of the generou
