Under the direction Of the county

the work of repairing the Fifteenth
street bridge has been completed,
except some necessary splking, the
material for which has not yet ar
rived. The travel over the bridge
has been mainly in the center here
tofore, and this part Of the bridge
was almost worn through. planks
were laid in the center in opposite
direction to the old planks, thus
making the first layer level, and
then a new floor was laid on this
lower layer. The old planks remain
thus saving $4,000 feet of lumber, an
important item.
In the center of the bridge rail
was laid which will keep teams 60
ing in opposite directions on opppo-
site sides of the bridge, thus evenly
distributing the wear over the entire
surface.-Tribune.

Dillon Examiner: The company

of Neihart is now a thing of the past.
TO the Neihart press, both the HER
AID and the Miner, belongs the Gre
dit of arousing public sentiment
against this institution so as to fin
ally compel the abandonment of this
most obnoxio1s of all corporate in
stitutions. The citizens of Neihart
deserve congratulations for their
manly fight and final triumph over a
corporate octopus that, as past ex-
perience teaches, has been detriment-
al to the business interests of every
mining camp or other community
where it has been tried.
