LIGHTING THE BRIDGE.

The question OF lighting the Hig-
gins avenue bridge Is to be settled
very soon: IL Is an important matter.
and should not be dismissed without
careful consideration. The bridge can
be vastly improved by proper ar
rangement OF lights. and its effect can
be greatly diminished by a poor plan.
The expense of lighting the bridge
falls upon the city. and IL will be a
considerable item: the installation of
a system OF lights will be costly. On
this account care should be taken to
get the best arrangement of lights
that can be obtained at reasonable
cost: II Is probable that the cheapest
system-eonsidered on a basis of the
cost OF installation-wili not be the
best: there are many points to be
considered in connection with the
matter. Mayor Logan and the coun-
ell have to decide the proposition,
and II must be decided soon; it Is
well TO be thinking over the matter
before IL comes up for action. The
bridge must be lighted. and il should
be well lighted.
