pated, and the letters which were made

MACADAM MAKING.

a Company Forming TO Cheaper and
Prepare Road Metal.
At meeting of business men yester-
day, called to consider the plan of organ
lzing rock-crushing company, to crush
cobble at Natoma with the latest i'm
proved machinery and electrical power,
and on a scale commensurate with the
probable demand under reduced price for
road metal. macadam for streets, grout-
ing for walks, foundations, etc., 1t was
| resolved that the scheme is feasible, and
that 1t will repay the investors we'll, and
at the same time will enable the best

more than one-half the price they have

coDble deposits and the returns that are
likely 10 be had from the business. If
the committee reports tavorably, and the
report satisfies the investors, then such
calling IN will be had as is necessary 10
put the industry on its feet.
The friends Of the good road movement
are greatly pleased with this action,
as they look upon it as the breaking ot the
ice al last OF the good road agitation in
this county. With macadam posi-
billty at even 81 10, making possible the
construction of narrow macaGam roads
and alongside of them as their compile
ment good narrow earth roads also, both
sprlnkled, they think these will follow
with great rapidity and general good road
| construction and consequent realization
OF benefits TO the county for which the
agitators have so long laborcd.
heretofore the one great obstacle to the
good road movement in sacramento has
been the cost of the best order OF material
and of its preparation. That cost reduced,
as is proposed, will practically settle the
road question and give tue good road
movement ali the momentum it needs.
