WANT ROADS OPENED.
County Is to Act Regarding Thor
oughfares in the Cottonwoods.


County Commissioner w. W. Wilson.
who on Friday examined the condition
OF the road in Big Cottonwood canyon
as the result of recent snowslides,
states that the work of clearing away
the snow will be commenced at once.
The principal blockade, Mr.. Wilson
states. is about a half-mile above the
upper power house. 1t extends along
the road for a distance of some 500 feet
and ranges in depth from thirty TO for
" feet. Mine operators and others in
terested up the canyon will assist the
county in prosecuting the work.
Communications were received yes
terday by the commissioners from Man
ager Henry NJ. Crowther Of the Con-
tinentai Alta mines. and from Nam
ager Tony Jacobson of the Columbus
Consolidated mine. both located al
Alta at the head Of Little Cottonwood
canyon. asking that the commissioners
take steps TO open up that thoroughfar-.
also. II is stated that by reason of
the hauling of ore from and supplies to
the camp of Alta the traffic is much
greater there than in Big Cottonwood.
il is also represented that unless this
work is done the road will not open by
the thawing of snow for over a month
to come.
Mr.. Wilson states that in the terri
tory visited by him sulowslides Of less
magnitude are quite numerous, and that
the snow is becoming exceedingly soft.

week, owing to the proximity of con-
ference. The arrival Of the confer

streets yesterday and fiocked into the
stores.
The vanguard of wool buyers ar
rived during the week. The outlook
FOR the clip is reported to be better
than il was last year. as the winter

stii considerable demand for cash, and
rates are firm.
