Of q mile OF fine road completed and q
band Of twenty-seven convicts en-
gagged on pushing the work. Thus far
the maximum grade is below I'VE per

admirable. The day before yesterday
twelve able bodied men were brought

The hrst meeting had been held
April Is. The matter wal fully jis-

no part Of the survey was approved.
A second meeting also resulted in
nothing definite. A third meeting
vas held May 20. At this meeting
Messrs. veeder. Stearns. Gise, Romero,
Kihlberg, Kelly and Hoskins were
present. A resolution introduced by
Mr.. Gise was passed without dissent
Ing vote. II approved the location OF
the four miles and a half OF road now
building which was later approved by
Mr.. Bursum and 1t also recommended
the acceptance of the survey by
Stephen Powers to the Hot Springs
stable. This part OF the resolution
has, however, not been acted D
Mr.. Romero generously offered to con.
tribute his interest in the road farther
up the valley with which the route
around the head OF the canyon will
join, to the commission.
The Optic representative talked to
several members OF the commission
regarding the subject. They said that
the intentions OF the Aqua Pura COM
pany, the interests OF the land grant,
private interest nor anything else had
the slightest influence on them In
the matter Of recommending the adop-
ton OF the survey. They were asked
to approve the most feasible line for
Scenic Route at Z grade moi to exceed
ive per cent, This they had done,
the work had begun and that four
miles and a half Of road would be
built. Competent surveyors had been
consulted, the county commissioners
had approved and Mr.. Bursum had
absolutely fixed the location of that
much of the route. All the rest of the
route within the borders of San Miguel
county was still an open question.

WHAT INFLUENCED THE LocA.
TON or FOUR MILES AND
A HALF or ROAD.
eupt. Pierce Of the Aqua Pura Com
.pany Expresses Observation-Disclosures
Of the committees' Meetings.

In no subject, except the hoped for
government reservoir are the people
Of the city taking more interest at
present than In the Scenic Route, be-
tween Las Vegas and Santa Fe.
There has been considerable criticism
owing to the location OF q part Of
the route around the sides and end
OF a steep canyon above the Hot
Springs, while q road already exists
through the valley along the Gallinas.
II has been charged that the Aqua
Pura company has exercised much &C
tivity In having the road taken out Of
the canyon, 70 - not to interfere
with its OWE designs along the river.
The argument is used by those who
advocate the utilization Of the river
road, that all the money available
will be expended before the mountain
where no road at all exists. Is reach
ed, and that the whole project may be
abandoned. They say that by using
the river road, the remainder OF the
Scenic Route, or nearly all Of It can
be constructed with the money avail
able.
On the other hand, those who up
hold the present location OF the small
section Of the road, say that the aim
II to construct q Scenic Route; that
such Il the purpose for which the
money was voted by the legislature;
that II would be the acme Of foolish
ness to bury the road In q narrow
canyon; and that the river road was
absolutely impossible a part Of tho
year and that It would require Z con
slant expenditure to sustain any kind
Of q road In the canyon. II the Scenic
Route Is to be built at all. 1t should
be made q permanent road, and . ROAD
would answer the requirements
Of the legislature. It Is = question Of
such = road, or no road 1t all.
