filling in of the river bed by the
city, in building the south earth ap-
proach of the bridge, and extending the
north front of the city park. were
taken out back to the old shore line, q
river channel more than 1000 feet wide
would be restored, which, if carrying
20 feet depth of water would be ample
provision against losses by a flood stage
of water like that of 1908.
By placing the means necessary for
the removal of these entertainments
on the former channel way of the
river in the control of the mayor and
council, through authorizing the is
sue of enough bonds therefor the city
will simply reverse its own error in
the former well meant but unfor-
tunately mistaken policy of narrow
ing the river bed at this point to les
sen the cost of bridge construction;
and at the same time relieve itself
from the responsibility, as set out in
the opinion of the city attorney for
the property losses following and con-
sequent upon the placing of these OBJ
While the estimated cost of this i'm
provement is $4,000, officials of the
county in position to know, have
enough information concerning actual
prospective bids by the Topeka
Bridge company and others. for the
construction of this arch, to lead
them to believe that the real cost in
this case will not exceed $4,000, and
that a levy of SO cents on each thous-
and dollars of valuation on the tax
rolls would pay the bill all off in
one tax year.
With the withdrawal of the i'm
pediment of this earth approach to
the Melan bridge will quickly go all
other like encroachment by the other
bridges, and an unobstructed water
way, 1000 feet in width, will prevail
from the Rock Island yards east
wardly to the Sardou avenue bridge.
