TAXING Up DITCH PROBLEM
Council Committee and City Engineer to
Hold Meeting Sunday.
HOPE TO COMMENCE WORK At EARLY DAY
Idea H. to Have the troublesome
stream Deepened aud Bridges
Raised Before the Heavy
Rains ia June.

Councilman Maloney, chairman of the
city council. committee appointed to take
charge of the work of deepening and
widening Indian creek from Sixteenth ave-
nue. to Eighth street. has called meeting
of the committee for Sunday afternoon at
the Office OF City Engineer Etnyre. The
principal question to be determined by the
committee is the manner in which the
work shall be- carried out
The chief obstacle in dredging Indian
creek between the points named is the
number of bridges which will be encoun-
tered. There are forty-three bridges span
ming the creek between Sixteenth avenue
and Eighth street. Of which twenty-six are
owned by the railroads. Nearly all Of
these railroads will have to be raised to
conform with the new grade OF the creek
banks
owing to the number of bridges 1t is
doubtful II the big dredge belonging to the
city which was used for deepening the
creek from Sixteenth avenue to the Mis-
souri, river can be utilized for this work.
Mr.. Maoney stated yesterday that 1t was
likely the committee would decide on en-
ploying scrapers and teams.
: The committee has 100000 at its disposal
for the work. this amount having been
guaranteed by the several railroads having
bridges across the creek. 1t is the in
tention of tho committee. according to Mr..
Maloney. to commence the work with az
little delay as possible and to employ as
big force as can be handled properly 50
! as to complete the work If possible before
the June rains. which cause periodic over
flows of the turbulent little stream.
/ The committee in charge OF the work
! consists OF Councilmen Maloney, chair
/ man: FINLEY and Olson and City Engineer
