PAGTOLUS TO

ComnximUooera of Flu County Voted ]
on Matter Yentenlay Afternoon.
(By Eastern Press)
Greenvllle, Oct. 6.?County com-|j
miseioners were In session yester
day and while there was a large a-[
mouu^ ?t routine buslneB?> thero I
was very little of Importance thans-|
acted.
One thing that speaks well (or tho
present board of commissioners Is
that It has learned the value of the
county's money to such an extent
that the board Is doing all in Us
power to cut down tho county's ex
penses Incurred In building steel
bridges.
?Hitherto it has been the policy of
the commissioners to go ahead and
give the contract to the lowest bid
der without Investigating thorough
ly tfhat the coBt would be.
The commissioners have been
making a study of their expendi
tures, and when It was decided to
build a new bridge at Pactolus, In
stead of going ahead as before, they
got a man to take the contract and
have as his help, the convict force
of the county. This will, In bo
doubt, savn the county several hun
dred dollars.
The bridge Is to be a steel one I
and will cost In the neighborhood |
of $1,700.
