THE board of county commits
sioners met on Thursday last in
called session, They took up
the matter of the franchise of a
toll bridge over the Rio Grande
at this point. The charter, as
asked for by Messrs. Hamilton,
Thwaites and Buchanan was read
section by section. and was re-
vised and debated by the citi-
zens of Socorro present, This
took all the forenoon, at the
afternoon session the board grant
ed the franchise asked for. It's
principal points are as follows:
Messrs Hamilton, Thwaites and
Buchanan or successors, are to
commence, within ninety days to
build and construct the bridge,
and are to complete it in six
months from and after 90 days,
the date of commencement. If
they do not commence in 90 days
and do not complete in six months
thereafter, then they forfeit their
rights. Time is made the essence
of the franchise. The bridge is
to be good and substantial, either
wood or iron or both. They have
an exclusive franchise for one
and one-half miles above and
below their bridge. The tolls
under the law are to be fixed by
the county commissioner. After
twenty years the county can pur-
chase the bridge at it's appraised
value if they so elect, the value
to be determined by three ap-
praisers, one by the county,
one by the bridge company and
one selected by the two apprais-
ers. This sets at rest the long
discussed question of a bridge
over the Rio Grande at Socorro,
and will give us an A No. /
bridge and take the expense Of
building, maintaining and repair
ing from the shoulders of the tax
payers Of this county. The per
son or set Of persons who want to
use it can do so by paying a small
toll for the privilege.

CONGRESSMAN CHAs. CRISP. of
Georgia, has been elected speaker
of the present congress. This
was done by a combination. of
Tammany with the spoils hunters
of the east and south. To per-
son in the west who is not initial
ed into the mysteries of the east
ern borbon ring it seems strange
a man like Hon. r. Q. Mills, of
Texas. or Mr.. Springer, of Illi-
nois, would be thrown over
board, but then the slogan rang
and the whole party got down to
do the bidding of the bosses.
