sunnD THE nnD s.ouNrArNEoAD

That this road Was not built
last fall is due to the fact that 1t
was all but impossible toocom
lplete the work in the lime al
lowed by the court for it's com
pietion When bids were adver
tised for the season for doing
work IN the mountains WAS well
nigh closed. Men who have had
experience road buildingiin o
mountainous country, where tine
Snow fall is usually very heavy
during the winter season, would
not bid on the work last fall. 1t
willdDe different now, with a long
summer before them to complete
the work in. We areaquite sure
there will be no lack OF aspinants
Tor the work when the next bids
are opened.
The building of this road to
the Bed Mountain means the
opening up of cnneOf the most
highly minefalized sections of
the state. "A section that has
been thoroughly prospected for
years, but the development of
winch was impossible by reason
of ibs iilaccessibility Without q
voad II Was impossible to get
there with more than a pick and
shovel and what provisions men
could carry on their backs or on
apony
Itrwas the purpose Ofone CON-
gpany to put mining machinery
in tine Red Mountain section last
falli the road had been opened.
So anxious was this company TO
getsto workout its property, that,
after Learning tine road would
not be built, they made an effort
TO have a saw mill packed In on
Jlorses but were compelled to
abandon the project and leave
the machinery hefoRe reaching
their destination.
Tine building of this road will
also open up to settlement a
large body of fine agricultural
land and thus make an ,opp0r
tunity for q number of nome
seekers TO get desirable tracts OF
land.
Once this road is built, the
mines opened up, the interlying
country settled with fanchers
she trade coming from that sec
ton will be of incalculable bene-
fit to I4eavenworth. The phy-
sical condition of the country is
SUCH that the people who live
'sfere will ae compelled to come
mere to do their trading and get
30 the railroad. We are told
that it is next TO Impossible to
even make 8 way to get any
where else.
There is s4500 lying ready ito
ne spent.on this work. All OF 1T
must he spent in work done on
the road, 1t Can not be used for
eny other purpose
Once it is huilt it bseomes a
state road. The last Legislature
provided for 3 state road fund
from which appropriations will
j1e made by future Legislatures 10
keep up and improve these state
roads.
