duplication of appropriations. AS to
the balance of the allotment the
county will be required to furnish an
equal amount.
In case any county board fails to
make a statement showing how it pro-
poses to use the state aid fund, it will
be presumed that such county does
not require any assistance, and this
will have material bearing on the
allotments.
The attention of the county boards
is called to one very important point:
Heretofore many reports have been
sent in covering small jobs for re-
pairs or Improvement, varying in
amount from twenty to fifty dollars,
for which state aid is asked. If this
condition existed in only one or two
counties it would not be serious
matter, but, the inspection or super
vision of great number of such jobs
in fifty or more counties puts a de-
mand on the engineering department
that cannot be well provided for. It
is therefore suggested that such work
be done with the county road and
bridge fund, and superintended by
their own overseers, leaving the state
aid fund, with the necessary equal
amount of county money, to be ap-
piled in amounts of $500 or more.
Such a plan would result in better
work, closer supervision and more
complete satisfaction to the county
boards and the people.
County auditors are requested to
arrange with the members of the
county boards for early action in this
matter.

propriated out of the general revenue

Will Also Be Voted on at
Regular Meeting

\ The East Grand Forks city council
will hold their regular monthly meet
ing this evening and 1t is expected
that the meeting will be q warm one
Two matters will come up that arr
OF much interest. Tho ilrst is the con-
! tinuation Of the North Second street
grading and the second is the Lincoln
school sewer.
, One Of the members Of the council
stated this morning that the council
would not take up the grading mat
ter, but It Is understood that one Of
the residents of that street will be at
the meeting armed with petition and
backed by thirty-three property own
.ers, to ask for the continuation Of the
grading to Dakota avenue and the end
of the water main. Just what action
will be taken In the matter is un-
known.
: The Lincoln school sewerage propo-
'sition is one that has bothered the
school board considerably. At the
present time the school Is served by
q cess pool, but conditions are such
that sewer is a necessity. II It is
not installed the school will be forced
to close down for the winter, accord
ing to one council member.
Outside Of these two matters moth
ing out OF the ordinary is to be
brought up.
