Occasionally Independent editor
hears some one from one or the other
sections of Delta county ask II there
is any likelihood of the state bridge
being moved from its present location
down even with the town of Austin.
All seem to favor such removal. par
ticularly those who live on Surface
Creek and in the North Fork. This
may be done in time and we believe
should be done, as the present loca-
tion necessitates from mile to a
mile and a half of unnecessary travel.
n part of which is never very good,
because of the sandy stretch along the
river on the north side. AS there is
not likely to be any bridge losses this
spring from high water. our county
commissioners may feel more at lib
erty to take up such matters as the
moving of the state bridge. IL the
subject should be urged.
