Contract Let for
BuiIding BRIDGE
On SiIGtz River
Bridge WIN Replace Steel Structure
Mashed Out by High Water in That
Section Last Fall.

One OF the main issues to come be-
fore the County Court at it's session
here this week was the letting Of u
contract for the construction of "a
190-foot span steel bridge to be con-
structed over the Siletz river between
Toledo and the town Of Siletz at an
approximate cost Of $17,165.
CMonsen & Trewieler of Portland
were the lucky bidders for the con-
tructlon of the bridge, the above named
sum being the amount of their bid.
viii Start at Once.
According to the terms of the con-
tract construction work will start I'M
mediately and the bridge is to be
ready for traffic by the latter part Of
August, this year.
: The people of Siletz, according to
statements OF citizens Of that section,
are practically shut off from the out
side, due to the fact that high water
of last fall washed out all bridges in
that section. The only means Of
across the river at the
present time is by boat.

Toledo, Oregon, May 9th, 1929.
To the Voters OF Lincoln County:
| have been asked to explain
through the county newspapers GER
tain features of the Road Bonding
Laws applicable to the measures to
be submitted to the voters Of Lincoln
County al coming Primary election.
You will have the opportunity of
voting for or against two bonding
propositions-one for the issuance OF
$4,000 and the other for the issuance
of $4,000, in bonds of the County.
In all the proceedings relative TO these
two propositions, this money is to be
expended in the CONSTRUCTION of per.
manent reads" and no mention of the
construction of bridges is made any
where. Now 1t Is fact that every
cent will be spent in the construction
of bridges and this is the only reason
that the bonds are to be issued. The
$4,000 will be expended wholly in
the construction Of the bridges washed
out and destroyed by the high water
last November and the proceeds OF the
$4,000 proposition will be used only
III thc Cohotl uClIoi VI u uliu6e dCIoSn
the Yaquina River at Toledo. These
propositions are entirely separate and
on separate ballots. Now then why do
the proceedings state that this money
is to expended in permanent road
construction and not for bridge con-
struction7 The answer Is that there
10 no provision of the law for tho is
suance Of bonds for the construction
Of bridges and in as much as the law
states that bridges are included IN
and a part of the public highways
which is also the holding our Supreme
Court, the only procedure possible
is under the law for providing funds
for permanent road construction
There Is no question as to the legality
Of this proceeding as 1t has been pass
