The county courts of Union and Wallowa counties went down the canyon Friday, where they met with the engineer and right-of-way agent for the O. R. & N. Co.. for the purpose of locating the new bridge across the Wallowa river. There has been some difficulty in the two courts agreeing on the location. The Union court favors the old site, while the Wal lowa court wants the bridge moved up the stream about 300 yards. The O. R. & N. has offered to pay $2000 in order to get the bridge moved from the old site, as it greatly interfered with building the railroad. The Union court claims the railroad should pay a greater sum than $2000, as the extra expense will exceed that sum. It is be lieved that the matter will soon be ad justed, and that the bridge will be built at an early date. WANTED 5 or 6 room modern house unfurnished, close in.
