WHITE BEAR CYCLE PATHS.

County Commissioners Will Make
Some Needed improvements.
The regular meeting of the board
Of county commissioners yesterday, was
characterized by the usual wrangling
over routine business. The first dis
pute occurred over a resolution, con-
stituting Messrs. Hardick, Kellerman
and Rief, a committee to hire men and
teams for the repair Of the White Bear
cycle path. Chairman Doran objected
to the resolution because the amount
Of money to be expended was not mem
toned in the resolution. After some
controversy, q resolution was finally
adopted empowering the committee to
build the track from Wright's corner
to a point two and half miles from
White Bear lake. The proposition to
extend the cycle path through Glad
stone to the county line was referred
to the committee on roads and bridges.
After another wrangle, a resolution
was adopted instructing the county
auditor to, advertise for bids for the
grading Of Kellar marsh on the
Josephine road.
