The bridge question is one that inter
aud particularly every taxpayer. While,
IS Mayor Poor said in his address VI on
way evening, many would like to see a
new bridge located at or nearer the foot
of Main street. there would seem to be
legal and financial obstacles-to say
not lGng of practically shutting off the
best part Of our harbor-that, at least,
must prevent immediate action in that
d rection What then is to be done?
4 he present bridge is admittedly unsafe,
and cannot be left in that condition.
| must be repaired OF rebuilt at once.
Tie bids for building new bridge on
the present site are surprisingly low,
while as Parker Spofford c. e., said at
the meeting Monday night: ITO at
tempt to repair the present structure
would be a very unsatisfactory work.
1t would be difficult to know where to
begin and where to end. Anything
short of a removal of all the old piles
might leave the poorest one of all 1t
is evident, therefore, that no accurate
estimate can be made as to the cost of
repairs, and they may equal and posi-
bly, exceed, the amount for which con-
tractors are ready to build new
bridge, good for score of years. This
work can be done without increasing
taxation or mourning suits for damages;
and looking to the interests of all the
citizens this seems to us the best course
to pursue.
