Work on the Vineland bridge has
been temporarily suspended pending
the arrival of material. After the
contract had been let it was deemed
advisable to extend the long span on
the Palisade side of the piers to eth
er side of the channel. This extend
ed the bridge more into Vineland and
left space of about 80 feet vacant
on the Palisade side, for which no
material has been provided. A spe
cial hurry-up order was sent in for
the material and it is now on the
way, and will soon be in place. The
planks for the bridge are to come
from DeBeque and there has been
some delay in their delivery: but it
is expected that the whole order will
be filled by June l and the bridge
fully completed by the middle of the
month.-Palisade Tribune.

Hooray for a greater Plateau All
our good boosters who want to know
what's what in the railroad situation,
or who are in line for advancement
of the valleys best interests should
be at the big citizens meeting called
by the Chamber of Commerce, at Mo-
lima. week from Saturday.
Some weeks ago a movement was
begun to secure an investigation of
certain stories, from what seemed to
be a reliable source, in regard to Of
fers made by the Denver G Rio
Grande and other lines to build into
Plateau valley. 1t was thought best,
before any information was given
out. to call a convention of Plateau
citizens to ascertain what kind of
road is most feasible, what might be
expected in the way of sugar beet
shipments. what financial aid would
be given, etc. The meeting would
afford an opportunity for the promot-
er or builder to state his side of the
question and make his proposition di-
rect to the people, while the people
would be given an opportunity to be
heard.
Thc Grand Junction Chamber of
commerce Iell IN heartily with tne
plan. and promised a big delegation
of finaneiers and realty men from
that city. The meeting was post
poned because of adverse weather and
certain other things, and will be held
at this time. A number of automo-
biles and other conveyances will
bring in loads from the Junction,
and many very important speeches
will be made.
The program has not yet been
worked out; but it will doubtless in
clude statements and discussions on
such topics as: How Plateau May
Secure n Railroad; Steam Road VS..
Electric; Profits in Sugar Beets;
Land Prices and Land Values; How
and What to Advertise to Secure
Homeseekers; Cooperation for Pro-
motion of Common interests.
big basket dinner will be served
at noon. Hot coffee for all who
bring cups.

ties for the day and be a good boost
