COUNTY BOARD IGNORES
PROTEST
Contractor Is Ordered to Reduce 500
10 Grade to Underground Crossing

E. e. Sandeen, having the contract
to onvert the Rice street crossing of
the 500 railroad tracks from a grade
to an underground, was told to pro-
coed with the work, notwithstanding
the protest of the railroad
: The 500 had requested tina the
commissioners delay the work of ex-
~cavating until the steel necessary to
carry the tracks over the roadway
could be secured, but Sandeen pro-
tested hat if this was done he would
be a heavy loser. Sandeen contended
that If he was commanded to suspend
operations he Woul hold the county
for his loss.
1t was concluded by the commits
%sioners that it. would be best not to
act On the matter, leaving the dig
cussiOn between the contractor and the
railroad company.
George Roberts complained that his
Hand was beiTig used in creating the
new crossing, but did mot push his
claim further after an interview with
the country surveyor. John Kurkow-
Ski complained that the work. on the
grade had caused his hay meadows
to be flooded. Commissioner Powers
was instructed to see that pipes are
spfaced to keep the water off the kur-
skowski land.
