Good Roads Work.
Work is progressing fast on the road
between Socorro and Blue canyon
Foreman J B. Woods expected to
leave Yesterday afternoon for Santa
Fe to bring down an additional force
of convicts but the delay OF trains
by washouts prevented his doing so
However, he will doubtless have the
additional force on the ground early
next week and then even more raplo
progress will be made than has beer
made heretofore. On account OF the
objections of two or three owners OF
nroperty along the road that has beer
travelled for years, 1t has been founo
necessary to change the line OF tne
road Just outside the. city but the
change has proved to be fortunate
one. The line now chosen runs W
onto the mesa directly west OF tne
Dougherty residence. This Is an I'M
movement. The whole road as fa1
as constructed is remarkably fine
piece of work and everybody should
take a look at it-Socorro Chieftaln
