SENATOR DeLoNG's BILLS.
Introducing One Providing for Com
missioner of Public High
ways-Others.

Senator Horace T. DeLong, of this
city, introduced a bill in the senate
Thursday, with the sanction of the
state engineer, which provides for
the appointment of a commissioner
of highways and defines his powers
and duties.
The bill conflicts with the one al
ready introduced on the subject of
good roads but Senator DeLong main
tains that there is much merit in the
existing differences. 1t does not pro-
vide for separate bureau of high
way commissioners. but provides that
the authority for the improvements
shall remain with the state engineer
The appropriation for road building
shall be made in the usual way, ac-
cording to the necessities in the var
ious counties. but the legislature
shall not specify the exact work to
be done or the exact location of the
roadway.
It has been a matter of regret for
long time to the state engineers
Office that the Legislature saw fit to
fix the location of improvements.
for in several instances after the leg
islation was passed it was discovered
that there was an error in the site of
roadway or bridge. and the best
location had not been chosen. The
bill just introduced leavea this selec-
nf cff q fn nd Of
county commissioners, who are best
advised in the matter. A skeleton
secondary bill has also been introduc-
ed, appropriating 81 each to the. var
ious counties. which amount may be
increased according to their needs.
other bills introduced by Senator
DeLong on Thursday are as follows:
S. d. $50 De Long-To provide
for the distribution of the internal
Improvement permanent fund among
certain counties in state. TO be used
to construct and improve the public
roads and bridges in said counties.

QUARTER MILLION
FOR COLORADO
STATE MANSION

quarter of million dollars for an ex-

mended by the Real Estate exchange
the plan is a gigantic one but it em-
braces more than the erection of n
home for the states executive.
The likelihood that the state will
slmetime build a state library is pre-
supposed in the petition. and the
tract of land which the exchange
wants purchased will be large
enough to give room for the addi-
tional structure.
When it was first suggested that
an executive mansion be built $780,
