The Cotton Belt Railroad Company has been
making extensive improvements here for some time.
A cotton platform and stock pen have been erected
which are rst-class in every respect. Earth is now
being hauled with which to raise the grade on the
east side Of the track to facilitate the loading and
unloading of cars, which in the past has caused
considerable trouble to all shippers and receivers
OF freight. The railroad crossing is also being
raised to a proper grade. These improvements
have been needed for long time, and, if they
are late in coming, they appreciated. The City
Council will no doubt now begin laying sidewalks
so that the average citizen can reach the depot
without discomfort.

Suing Union County.

At the recent term of county court
George Conley put in a claim for
damages to the extent of between
$500 and $500, the same being for
the injuries and losses sustained by
the collapse of the bridge over the
big ditch, says the La Grande Star.
The bridge gave way while Mr..
Conley was driving over 1t with q
load of grain. The wagon was badly
damaged and the horses were injured
to such an extent that they were un-
fit for service for several weeks. The
court has taken the matter of dam
ages under advisement and will prob
ably make an adjustment of the same
at the next term.
eManwhile, contract has been
awarded for new steel bridge over
the big ditch at this crossing and fur
ther accidents are to be avoided. The
contract for construction has been
entered into with the firm of Easter
day & Co., and the contract price is
$3075.
