The Great Northern bridge crew
supervised by E. Rohliff, of st.
Cloud, have started the tearing out
of the old wooden overhead bridge
at the south Main street crossing
preparatory to the construction of
a new concrete and steel bridge.
The highway under the old
bridge has been something of a
menace to traffic because of it's mar
rowness INSTRUCTED vision. The
width clearance of the old bridge
is about 10 feet, the new one will
have 20 feet PA inches. The height
clearance under the new bridge
will be 81 feet 2-3-4 inches.
Mr.. Rohloff stated to the Herald
editor Wednesday that it would
take about go days to complete the
structure.
There will be false pier erected
in the centre of the pavement on
No. g., under the bridge,
necessitating a detour.
At this writing, Wednesday af-
ternoon, the Highway officials
have not visited the city to mark
the detour. There is a strong senti-
ment to have No. detour across
the Great Northern tracks east of
the fair grounds turning on to No.

and Main street south. If this plan
is followed it will necessitate an
other Detour from Highway No.

NO. !, CO.'S MILES LONG
More Families and Patrons
Served With Same Mileage
Under New Plan

After the death of Robert Ras-
mussen, veteran rural mail carrier,
last fall the postoffice department
decided to consolidate the five
Rural routes out of this city in
four routes.
Late in the Fall a postal inspec-
ton drove over the territory in
company with Postmaster William
M. Parker to decide which portion
of Route Three should be added to
the other routes.
The department was inclined to
put the change into effect at once
but Postmaster Parker objected be-
cause of unemployment conditions
and his request was yielded to.
Since Mr.. Rasmussen's death
Kenneth Mann, substitute carrier,
has been serving the patrons of
Route three.
No. 8, which will be eliminated
was 20 25.1O0 miles long, served 430
patrons and SO families.
The present No. 1, 4, and 5 will
absorb the present No. Under
the new plan which will be opera
tive May 1 the mileage will not be
reduced and more families and
patrons will be served.
No. will be increased from 45.8
miles in length to 60.25 miles; there
were $40 patrons and al families
on this route. The definite in
crease is not known. L. o. Gray
will continue to be the carrier on
No. 1. No. 2 will remain as at
present, 42.4 miles in length; Alt
patrons and 121 families will be
served. The carrier has not been
definitely decided.
The new No. 8 will be 1882 miles
long. The number of families and
patrons has been checked. This
route has been increased from 31.3
miles to Ass miles. The old route
served 435 patrons and ia fam
lilies.
No. 4 has been definitely assigned
to Clayton Stegner.
