Local Comment

The vladuct scheme has not yet be
come very serious for the reason tn I
engineers have rot been consulted as
to cost and no accurate estimate has
been made as TO property dana ge.
However before the boosters of the Re
tail Merchants Association go on rec
ord it would be wise TO consult Merritt
Greene who with Byron Webster once
made a very thorough investigation of
the practicability of viaduct. con-
suited with an engineer. had plans
drawn at the city's expense and con-
Quoted a hearing before the state rail-
road commission with attorneys for
the railroads present
In those days il was discovered that
the railroads would insist upon closing
the grade crossing on any street over
which they were compelled 10 build a
viaduct This would prevent any team
ever crossing the tracks on Third av-
enue at grade 1t was discovered that
it was impossible 10 include the Great
Western under any viaduct on Third
avenue and while Mr.. y. S. Ketchun
was not a. that time member Of the
railroad commission he was a candi-
date and he openly favored the v,aduct
OF Third avenue even If it did not go
over the Great Western. The commit
tee Of the council disagreed with him.
It was discovered that the damage
which the city would have to- pay to
business property on Third avenue
would amount to $4,000, while on
Center street which the council favored
this damage could not exceed $4,000.
1t was discovered that the city could
rot hope to obtain more than one via
duct in a generation of men and that
a viaduct on Third avenue would be of
10 service Whatever 10 rural traffic ap-
preaching the city from South Center
street or from any road south and west,
whereas IL placed on Center street the
traffic from the southeast could easily
use the viaduct since it led directly to
the center Of the city and feed sheds.
4
For these reasons the council COM
mtttee decided to attempt a viaduct on
Center street where all of the railroad DIS
could be included and where the prop
erty damage would not exceed the cost
OF the bridge. They planned TO open
IA street from the foot OF the viaduct
ca st to Third avenue coming out at a
point which is now between the new
Iowa Central car shops and the Mar
shall OIL Conlpany's new office. The
city engineer estimated the cost Of the
vtaduct on Center street at $4,000,
while tho railroad lawyers protested
That II would be as much as $4,000.
It has been informally stated that Mr.
Ketchum now estimates that a yiaduct
on Third avenue would cost in the
neighborhood Of 100000.
We certainly need a viaduct over the
railroad tracks badly. The growth Of
our city 81 :h-o:t,a<' -,:tt...,. g =

coed w. M. Clark.

The school board of the city will get
$1,000 for the maintenance Of the
public schools next year. This was the
amount the board authorized to be Ger
tilted to the county auditor at it's an
nual meeting for that purpose, held
Friday afternoon. The total Is made
up Of the following various funds:
Teachers $4,000; contingent, $4,000;
school house, $4,000 The school house
fund was, as the law provides, voted
at the spring school election. The other
two funds make total of $4,000,
which is $1,000 in excess of the amount
received from the taxes this year.
The members of the board have not
yet decided on a director to succeed
w. M. Clark. Several men have been
considered, and 1t is likely that one
will be chosen soon. Because J. l..
Carney, chairman of the committee on
supplies, fuel and printing, was not
present, the bids for the seasons sup
