THE NEED OF HURRY
 ON ROOSEVELT DAM
It Will Be Worth S25o Day to the Contractors to Reach Certain Stage by April i.

Roosevelt, March 2.-CSpecial Cerre- spondence of The Republican.)-Actu work on the setting of the gates of the aunnel began today. It was necessary to clean the tunnel after the last flood ss considerable sediment was deposit ed. The upstream bulkhead was rais- ed and strengthened so that in case of d second flood the tunnel will not fill. Ut was necessary to build a bulkhead down stream where the water enters the river from the tunnel as the high waters would cause the tunnel to fill from below. 4 derrick has been brought from Granite Reef and placed on the side of the canyon to be used in lifting the heavy pieces of iron into the tunnel.
 Masonry work on the dam has con- tinued at a good rate through the week. About fifteen men are kept at each derrick and all possible speed is being made. The front of the dam is up nearly thirty-five feet. The con- tract says the dam must reach 150 feet above bed rock by April of last year but on account of unavoidable delays the time was extended a year. In case the dam does not reach the required height the contractors are to pay S250 day until the required height is reached. So undoubtedly every effort will be made to bring the work up to the contract for it seems hardly likely that the government will extend the time longer. In a few instances the government has caused short delays and this time will be credited the con tractors.
 The pen stock just above the power house was completed last week The pen-stOck was designed by O. H. liar ris and is for the purpose of controlling the supply of water to the power house from the canal. In case it be neces- sary to stop the machinery in the power house suddenly, by a push button switch in the power house the water is shut off.
 The first tower was raised on the transmission line Monday and over half mile of towers were raised during the week Twelve men are required to assemble the towers and about half that number to raise them. The tow CTS on this desert portion are being raised by means of a gin pole operated by horse power.
