movements were again in the low priced

DOING COUNTY BUSINESS,
Hennepin and Dakota County
Boards Talk About a Bridge.


Boards Talk About Bridge.
The anniversary of lreland's patron
saint did not interfere one whit with the
work of the county commissioners, and
they met at the court house pursuant to
agreement to finish up the business left
over from two weeks ago. The first
business to be done by the county board
was to receive the report of the county
auditor, clerk of court and chairman of
the board on the books of the county
treasurer, which was as follows:
Change and cash on hand. ....... ST., 1854 q

Cash items in banks -. =. ...... 5lG,219 80
Total on hand March 5 80. $632,393 %
Which amount agrees with the county
auditors account.
The county auditor was requested to
adjust the clam of the county against
the town of Crystal Lake for the sup
port of Michael Curley at the poor farm
according to decree of the district
court. Bills presented by the associated
charities and George D. Holt for trans
ferring children to the UwatOnna state
school were ordered paid. The COM
mittee on public grounds and buildings
reported that the contract for building
the two-story brick addition to the
treasurer'S office had been let to l.. q.
BisBee for $3.50. Nineteen applica-
tiuns for abatement of taxes were al
lowed and one disallOWed.
While awaiting the arrival of the Da-
kOta county commissioners to talk over
the Cedar avenue bridge question, the
conversation among the commissioners
drifted upon Representative Snlder'S
bill providing for the transfer OF Lake
Minnetonka to the city park bOOrd. The
commissioners had little doubt but that
the bill would pass, and agreed that it
would relieve them from the trouble of
caring for the lake.
The Dakota county board arrived at
IL o'clock and took up its place Oh the
opposite side of the room from the Hen
nepin body, and then the discussion be-
gan. Each county board seemed to be
suspicious of the other, and there was
not little wrangling. County Sur
veyor Dahl had fixed the location of the
bridge at the point where. within the
10O-toot limit, the east and west quarter
line interSects the river, and a road
has been provided to cut across
to that point from Cedar avenue,
but the Dakota people had made no
such provision. Finally resolution
was passed as the sense of the meeting
that the Dakota county commissioners
be given full control of the building of
the road ard approaches to the bridge,
provided that the county attorneys Of
the two counties decide that it will be
legal. After this concession had been
made to it, the Dakota men accepted
the location mentioned by the Henue-
pin contingent, and white-wiriged
peace scared again. The Hennepin
county board will now have to adyer-
tiSe for bids, but some members OF the
board say that this will not be done
until the road on the Dakota side is an
assured fact.

building largs dam in the river ut
Spirit Island, which was agitated about
year ago, was revived and the indica-
tsons now are that the naillers intend 20

the removal og the shanties now occupy
ing the Bohemian flats. The cost OF the

river and next the canal, which is por-
tion of the plan
