as the recen floods have caused dam

repairing the roads and bridges, and
as he alone saved several hundred dol

officials from dynamiting the county
bridge ct Palisade, we recommend and
advocate that he be reimbursed for ac-
tual expenses incurred while in the
performance of his duty ct the north
end Of the county during the last Of
March and the beginning Of April. 1910.
We further recommend to the mem.
bers Of the Legislature that the Law be
so amended hat the Board of County
Commissioners of Eureka County can
build and repair roads and bridges to
the extent of $500. instead Of 500,
without first advertising for the same.
and that the emergency clause in the
road law be amended 80 as to read as
follows: "That in case Of emergency
the Board Of County Commissioner
can let the contract on the spot for any
amount"
We also recommend to the members
of the Legislature that the County
Commissioners Of Eureka County rs

no road supervisors, said Office having
been abolished by the Legislature. and
as the statutes do not make any provi.

work in one day than 20 men with picks

We do moi declare or intimate that the
above mentioned grader will do away

know the necessity Of hand work at
times and places, but we do know that

not be ~equaled. and would be a great
saving in cost.
