commission have Just returned from
a trip across the state, and whlle
away much time was spent In the
inspection of thew routes planned
on both the eastern and western
slopes. According to announcement
made by the commission, plans
have been made which it is believ-
ed will insure the building of
GOOD road from the state line
west to Salt Lake City to connect
with q route across the state. The
roads leading into Colorado from
the east are in fair shape. and the
great thing now is to have good
road leading westward through
Utah.
This question was taken up
with people of Grand Junction and
all other points and also with
Utah state officials. The plans
proposed call for the commencement
of the work in connection with
such a road Immediately. and sur
veys will first be made. When
these are completed active work OF

BryAn's Picture Laid Away with
Fitting Ccremonies

Trinidad, Oct. For nineteen
years the picture Of william Jen-
nings Bryan. has occupied its own
niche in the editorial rooms of
the Advertiser, the morning paper
of this city. Ever since the time
the silver tongued orator of the
Platte came into national promin-
ence the picture Of the leader of
the forlorn hope has hung In its
heavy frame over the desk of
the managing editor of the publ
cation. and has carefully watched
the development Of the Democratic
crIsires come and go with the same
smiling serenity.
Last night. with appropriate GER
emony, the picture was draped in
crepe and. with the printers in SOL
emn professional. carried to its
last resting place among the col
lection of newspaper relics of Ed
gar Sherman. news editor of the
paper. recently turned from the
ways of Democracy to follow the
teachings of Taft and the G. o.
p. Fitting obsequies were observ-
ed by the members of the back
shop. and the laying away of the
picture Of William Jennings took
some two hours' time devoted to
ceremonial OF the most serious
and complicated order.
