# its old l,ration and placed on tenn.

Of its old l9eation and placed on tenn
porary structure during the building of
tho rev bridge. Although the bridge
had been condemned half dozen
times, yet the bridge engineers with
practical bridge experience easily moved
it the required distance south and pla-
ced it on temporary pilings. Although
but a temporary structure after it had
been torn apar, here was no sugges-
tion that it was unsafe while the new
bridge was under construction.
During the heaviest part Of the work
on the new bridge, 20 mon were EN-,
ployed. For the wrecking Of the old
bridge the number averaged a5 until
within the last few weeks when but Is
we're Oh the work.
The second bridge Of which the last
plank is to be removed within a week
or more, was completed in March 1890,
el cost of $S3, 3,402,99. On October l,
1890, city bonds were issued for the
part the city was to pay, amounting
to $4,000 and for the past IS years
the city has been paying interest at the
rate Of $1,000 a year. The bonds will
be due October l, 1920. By that time
the city will have paid $4,000 interest
on its $4,000 bonds.
But with the building of the second
bridge, the city of Salem fares much
better. While it owes $4,000 on the first
bridge built in 1886 and $4,000 on the
second bridge built in 1890, the city
has, incurred no Indebtedness on the
new bridge.
The third bridge, one Of the finest
in the northwest cost $25O,0OO and there
is not dollar due. 1t was spot cash

to time as he building Of he bridge
progressed. OF the $250,O00 Folk
