The county commissioners are in
quandary as to what they can do in the
way of building bridges across the
Grand river. Two state, appropriations
have been made, one of $4,000 for a
bridge at Lacy and another of "a 900
for bridge at Una. The Una bridge
will cost great deal more money than
.he other, while the state appropriation
for it is $4,000 less The Lacy bridge
will accommodate more people than the
other and it is probable that that will
be built first If it is found impossible
to build the two, although both bridges
are much needed.
