Washington, D. c., Jan. 13.-Secre-
tary Garfield and Land Commissioner
Ballinger of the interior department
and Attorney General BonaDarte were
in conference today with President
Roosevelt over the so-called land
fraud cases in the western states. It
is known that there is considerable
friction between the two departments
over these cases, the secretary of the
interior and commissioner of the gen
eTal land office disavOWing RESPONSE
bility for bringing actions in Colorado

to grief through the decision of Judge
Lewis. The heads of both depart

harmony exists, and after leaving the
president today, Mr.. BOnaparte said
that prosecutions would continue right
along in the western states, excepting
Colorado, where they would be brought
only to avoid the statute of limitations

ARGUE FOR A STATE ROAD.
Proposition for Highway From os-
den to salt Lake PIeases.

According to the sentiment expressed by
the members of the board of county COM
missiOners yesterday they are in sympathy
with the movement started by the Good
Roads association to construct a state
road between Ogden and Salt Lake The
committee appointed by the association
last Friday night appeared before the
board, which appointed a committee to
look into the proposition and ascertain at
what cost the road could be built.
County Surveyor II. j. Craven stated to
the board that the desire is to build the
road, either from Washington or Adams
avenues to the boundary line of Davis
county. Two routes were proposed one
from the east and one from the west hut
the eastern route was considered the bet
ter, as it eliminated the long Journey
through the sand. The proposal to con-
tinue Adams avenue was also preferred
as 1t would give the best grade for cross
ing the railroad tracks and the Weber
river. both OF which will have to be
bridged. --
1t was argued that a better road between
Ogden and Davis county would bring
much OF the business from that section
INTO this city Mr.. Craven stated yester-
day that in his opinion a continuous
bridge across the river and the railroad
tracks would he the best. and while he
could give no definite estimate of such q
structure, he thought 5000 would cover
the cost. Of This amount the state would
pay one-half. Mr.. Craven will prepare
plans FOR the proposed highway and pre-
sent them TO the state engineer
