REPAIRING Light STREET BRIDGE.
NOW ANNE ARUNDEL WAS RELIEVED
OF IT.

OF IL
The bridge across the Patspscc
River from the foot Of Light street
Baltimore, to the Anne Arundel
County shore, has just been thor
oughly repaired, or rebuilt, at at
expense of one hundred aud sixty
thousand dollars to the city OF Bal
timsre and was reopened to public
travel on Wednesday last.
Until the year 1888 Anne Arm.
del county and Baltimore City, IN
der the Law, divided the cost of re-
pairing and maintaining THAI
bridge between them, aud it was a
heavy burden on our county
amounting in some years to over one
fourth part of the whole annual
county levy; if we were now respon-
. BILE for one half of the above
100000 of repairs, just pat
upon the bridge, our county tax
would be about doubled for this
year. This is how we escaped that
responsibility. For many years
prior to 1888, Baltimore City had
been endeayoring to extend it's linn
its by taking in parts of the thickly
settled districts lying around it.
The Legislature was besieged by its
municipal authorities, session after
session, for an act to authorize the
extension, but the Intense hostility
OF Baltim ore county to its own dis
memberment and the sympathy of
the other counties with it, prevented
any practical legislation on the sub
jsct.
Finally at the session of 1888, the
City made a desperate and success
full effort to have the needed Iegisla
ton passed. 1t was one of the great
fights Of the session and the result
was so doubtful up to the last min
ute that the city authorities accept
cd almost any amendment offered,
rather than run the risk Of alienat-
ing ore vote from the m asure.
The bill had passed the House and
was on its third rsaiing IN the
Senate when the Senator from this
county, Mr.. j. Writ Randall. effer-
ed the following amendment
And if the territory in either the LIST.
end or 3rd sections of this Act, shall
under its provisions, be annexed TO the
City of Baltimore, then and in that event
all bridges, crossing the Patapsco River
from said city, including the bridge
known as the Long or Light street
shall be maintained and kept in repair
for public travel at the sole expense of
the City OF Baltimore.
The City Senators add solicitors,
who were present, agreed to the
amendment rather than endanger
the passags Of the bill and it was
the last amendment that was adopt
ed, the bill Immediately afterwards
being passed by fifteen votes, enc
more only than a constitutional
majority. The act was submitted
to the voters in the Belt, and was
and now Anne Arundel
enjoys immunity from any expense
on account of Light Street Bridge.

APPEAL FOR THE COLbEuE


The people Of Salem can not af-
ford to let the proposition to enlarge
the endowment of the Willamette
University to fail. 1t is matter
that concerns all who are interested
in the prosperity of the city. Con.
sidered from business stand point
it adds largely to the growth and
prosperity of the city aud whatever
enlarges its usefulness also aids the
pros perity of the city. 1t is all the
more important since the proposition
is not an appeal to the generosity of
the people it is not a demand for
subsidies but business proposition
involving no possible loss but on the
contrary insuring fair returns, In
fact good investment considered
simply as a speculative venture.
With such an opportunity there
should be no hesitancy in taking
hold of the undertaking and push il
to success. There is no question o.
doubt connected with it, if those
who are able will only interest them
selves to the extent of Investigating
the proposition and then acting
promptly and unitedly. 1t only re
quires little concert of action anC
popular enthusiasm to make it al
emminent success, financially to al
parties, as well as an honor to thu
city. The business men of Salen
ought to show their interest in tin
upbuilding of the city by givini
this matter the needed support no
as donors, bnt as business enter
prise. 1t is no longer question c
where to locate but a question G
disposition to do anything.
There certainly is not busines
man in Salem who does not desir
to see the University put upon
more solid basis and there can b
none who are not willing to do thei
best in helping along so worthy a
enterprise, especially when it in
wolves no sacrifice of means.
) If all do little it will insur
success; it only requires united ef
fort and this should not be lacking
