Unsatisfactory Work.

The work as performed by the con-
tractors on the abutments of the new
Garden valley bridge is very unsatis-
factory, and County Commissioner
Anderson came in Wednesday to
confer with o. A. Duquette, Chair
man of the Board. The wall on the
south side of the river, which is only
about two feet thick, is cracked and
the lower side is sinking, although
the bridge has not been placed on it.
The Bullen company is getting a
good price for the bridge and they
ought to be forced to do 6rst-clsss
work. The filing between the abut'
ment and the bank is of such small
stones that it will be washed out By
the high water next spring.
