Civil Engineer Utter returned
Monday from Mineral, whore he
went to do some surveying for the
Ladd Metals Co. He states that
affairs are little quiet in the old
camp. The company has temper
arily suspended operations at the
smelter and work is confined to de-
velopment work in the mines. How
ever, very busy season is antici-
pated. Mr.. Utter also states that
the roads from Huntington are in
horrible condition-almost impass-
able. Such would not be the condi-
ton if Weiser would wake up to her
interests and construct the road from
here, which is Minerals natural out
let and eapply point. Thousands of
dollars annually are lost to Weiser
just from lack of proper interest and
little too much moss backism. The
citizens of Mineral and vicinity will
gladly meet us half way in this i'm
portant step. Let's build that road
this year.
