the road was not finished in a manner
and at such a time as the contract
called for. The years 1901 and 1902,
during which time the road was in the
course of construction. were anything
but favorable for railroad building.
and altho Johnson & Sons had about
200 teams on the work the greater part
of the time and worked es faithfully as
the weather would permit they were
unable to finish the work In any where
near the time 1t was anticipated the
job would demand. The firm lost a
considerable sum OF money on the con-
tract. but continued to complete the
work as per contract until the railroad
company saw that II they hoped to ge,
into Des Moines in time to save the
Nevada tax they would have to throw
their ties and steel upon a grade that
was but Just started. This they did,
and. the contractors claim, forcing them
to give up the work before completion.
The work was In a most crude state,
but was accepted by the railroad COM
pany by their act OF laying steel on the
grade.
The act Of the railroad company In
refusing to settle with the Johnsons
and claiming that the road was not
finished was also the cause OF the Ne
vada council resembling their action In
certifying to the tax voted the COM
rany thru this city. after which the
company brought suit against the town
to force them to certify to the tax. THIS
