The Nehalemites appear lobe the most
enterprising people in the county at this
time. As the county has thus far paid
no heed to the repeated demand for a
bridge across the Nehalem river—a long
frit want and something that they are
entitled to—they hav* levied a tax to
bridge the North fork and want the
county court to put in a bridge across
the South lork. That appears to lie a
fair proposition, and we hope that the
county court will see its wav dear and
be able to spare the "dough’’ this sum
mer for a bridge across the South lork.
We arc glad to say that the Nehalemites
are united, and with considerable en
thusiasm and determination, they mean
to get out of tlirir “bottled up” condi

the countv court to help them out.

not anticipate a great influx of home
