BRIDGE AT WOODLAND
IS FINALLY FINANCED
(Special to Tlie Journal)
Woodland, Wash., July 21. The last
obstacle to the building of the bridge
across Lewis river at this point wss
removed when the Kelso State bank,
Woodland State bank. Capital National
bank of Kelso and the -First National
bank of Kalama agreed to take up the
115.000 necessary as a deposit from
Cowlits county. This was necessary
Inasmuch as .the road and bridge fund
of Cowlits county had been drawn on
so heavily for Internal Improvements
that there was not sufficient cash on
hand to make the deposit with the state
treasurer. The provisions of the state
I appropriation covering the state's half
of the amount was that the appropria
tion from Clarke and Cowlits counties
was to be on deposit with the state
treasurer, before work could be begun
on the bridge, but now that this ob
stacle has been removed as far as Cow
litz county Is concerned, and as Clarke
has the cash, it is expected work will
be commenced In a short time.
