County commissioners c. B.

engineer Fred Mcconnell. we're in
Parma Friday for the purpose
of inspecting the Parma bridge
across the Boise river. The
bridge has been unsafe for heavy
traffic for some time, and will be
condemned. 1t is an old struc-
|ture, having been built over
twenty years ago, and the tim
bers are so afflicted with dry rot
that some are already broken
and supports have been placed
underneath to withstand the
traffic The bridge is also not
wide enough to accommodate
the travel, which is the heaviest
Eof any bridge in the county
During the 40 minutes that the
party was at the bridge 25
teams and autos passed over,
and number more were in
transit as the party left.
A modern steel bridge, 20 feet
in width, is imperatively needed,
and it must be built at once il

agitation in Parma for an ordi-

fell on certain back porch
where a lady was taking bath.
The lady fell out of the tub and

our friends across the river.
Mcdonnell estimates
that such a structure can be
erected for $1,000. by placing
the bridge on a line with the
road leading to the river it can
be shortened considerably, and
it would also dor away with the
cost of keeping up the road
along the river bank on this
side, which is a considerable item
of expense every spring. This
would. also shorten the distance
to Roswell and not increase it to
other points south and east
After viewing the present struc
ture and looking into conditions
the commissioners stated that
the new bridge would be built
at once if it could be done legally
without calling a bond election
While there is no doubt that
under the exigency of the situa
ton, the fair minded and pro
gressive citizens OF the best coun
ty in the state would authoriz'
bonds for the purpose, it woult
take time that would be ex
cessively costly and entail al

additional expense of approxi-
mately $4,000 to bold a bond
election. Under the law the
commissioners are compelled to
maintain the roads and bridges.
This matter is not a question of
building a bridge in new loca-
tion, and in our Judgment re-
quires no election. The road
and the bridge, which is por-
tion OF the road. is already in
existence. Mr.. Mcconnell esti-
mates that it will cost $4,000
to repair the bridge, and we
would still have an old bridge.
1t would also cost $4,000 to hold
an election, and if the election
failed to carry the commissioners
would be compelled to repair the
old bridge; so that the people o
the county would still be OUT th'
price of a modern structure thai
would accommodate the heavy
traffic of the present, and woulC
still have a structure that would
have to be rebuilt IN a shor
time. To us it seems much th
better way-if it can be legal,
done-to order a new bridg
built at once.
