force of men on the grade work be-
tween Caldwell and the river, says
the Caldwell News. The work is
nearly finished and as the recent fl
nancial trouble has made 1t unprof-

1t was thought advisable to reduce the
force to the minimum and simply
leave enough to finish the work be-
fore the winter closes in. The pay
roll on this road has been $4,000 per
month.
