INTER-COUNTY FREE BRIDGE.
Commissioners of Lincoln and Twin
Falls Asked to Purchase Toll Bridge.
Miner, Idaho, March 8, 1908.

u
A petition has been circulated
among the citizens of the east end OF
Twin Falls county petitioning the
county commissioners to purchase the
bridge across Snake river at this
place, which is burden to both the
North Side settlers and the residents
of the east end of the county. The
settlers are obliged to cross the bridge
to get their hay, grain and in fact
everything, and feel while the whole
county is benefited, that Twin Falls
county should go in with Lincoln
county, which is willing, and buy the
bridge and make it free. The pur-
chase price is so small that the taxes
would be less than 1920 of / per cent
of the taxation and it is hoped that
our commissioners will join the COM
missioners of Lincoln county and buy
it. The people of this end Of the coun-.
ty as matter Of Justice, feel That they
are entitled to some expenditure of
the taxes, as they have had absolutely
no benefit from Twin Falls county
since it has been established
