WIDENING COLUMBIA ROAD.
Commissioners Report Favorably on
Pending Bill

The Commissioners today reported favor
ably TO Congress the bill to widen a por-
ton of Columbia. road east of 10th street.
The estimated cost OF the land necessary
to be condemned for the improvement is
placed at $4,000. The Commissioners state
that at present Columbia road between the
limits named-a distance of about 450 feet
is but thirty-threes feet wide. The portion
of the road east of it is sixty feet wide
and the portion west of ii 100 feet wide.
The roadway of Columbia road along the
portion proposed to be widened is paved
with width OF thirty feet and what side
walk exists there now lies almost entirely
on private property. The Commissioners
say that as Columbia road is an important
highway and the benefits to accrue from its
widening will innure to the public as we'll
as to the adjacent property, the provision
of the bill that at least one-half the
amount of damages shall be assessed as
benefits adjacent property. the other
half to be borne as a general charge is
a fair. one.
