That Free Bridge.

AT the last session OF the County
Court the free bridge question was
taken up in the usual perfunctory
manner, as a mode of appeasing
public sentiment
The mountain was in labor tor
about an hour and then solemnly an
nounced to the assembled auditors.
as a result of it's engagement, that.
this is serious matter; the court
does not want to act hastily; and
we have concluded to think on it
till the 18th of February, and then
take it up again.
The inwardness of such tactics is
too transparent to deceive anybody
The bridge question is not new.
1t has been the absorbing topic of
thought and discussion by the peo-
pie of this county for almost a gen
Grafton
1t has been the public incubus
that has been sapping the life of the
county for the same length of time.
Successive County Courts have
sat on it, and sat over it, and sat
under it, and sat on all sides of it,
until it is like threshing old straw
to discuss any phase of the subject.
Yet this particular County Court
don't want to act hastily in the
matter"
Well, where has this particular
County Court been that it has not
before heard of the matter?
How long does it take this partic-
ular County Court to get its think
ing machinery on a plain business
proposition?
After this particular County Court
has oiled its thinker for month it
will come slowly and deliberately up
against the free bridge question on
the 18th Of February, the mountain
will again go into labor. and as re-
suit will announce that mot desiring
TO act hastily they have determined
to wait until they see whether the
United States viii grant them per
mission to build a new BRIDGE
This new bridge project is the
silliest subterfuge that has yet been
concocted by this particular County
Court as reason tor delay.
There is not man, woman or
child now living IN this county who
will live to see new bridge built be-
tween Morgantown and the West
Side of the Monongahela.
What we want to ask is this: Are
the people of this County going to
submit to this by play of their Coun-
ty Court beyond the 18th day of
February?
If so, how long?
IT not, what are tEey going to do
about it?
