The petition to build a bridge at Kellogg was presented by William Cobb during the present term of the county court nnd contained tho, sig natures of about 1400 taxpayers of the county. The proposed bridge will be of about the same dimensions as the Dillard structure and estimates place the cost at approximately $3D,- 000.

It was also stated that the river was dangerous at that paricu- lar point nnd that a bridge wus deom- ed necessary at this time. The county engineer will probably prepare the plans nnd specifications for tho bridge at once In order that some action niny be taken by the court at the regular February term.
