tile City Council was held at the BelfastOpera
House last Friday evening The members
Of the committee We're on the stage and the
meeting called to order BY the Mayor,
who read the call and gave all an invitation
to come forward and present their views IN
regard 10 location. f. j. Morrison was tile
first speaker and spoke briefly. He was fol-
lowed by DR.. q. Z. kllgore, who gave an
outline Of four plans proposed, ia different
locations Tie location Of the present bridge
he designated as Plan NJ. !, where bridge

Tue grade crossing the cost will be propor-
tionately higher, While there will be 10
land damages Nv this route, DR.. kilgore
thinks there can be no increase of valuation
resulting from a bridge at that location. The
two locations at Hollis and Alden's are
longer and Will cost more. With bridge
AT the foot Of Main Street tile only land dam
ages Will be on the west side as owners on
