 Wickenburg Miner; The Mis- souri River Bridge Company is rushing work on the new pier in the middle of the Colorado river, at Topock, to get it completed before the spring flood reaches that point. The other piers will be reinforced, as it is the general opinion that the bridge is to be rebuilt to carry double or triple track. Hundreds of men will be at work on this bridge before another month passes. The bridge for many years one of the largest cantilever structures in the United States, only exceeded in length by the Firth of Forth bridge in Scotland which was destroyed by tidal wave some years ago. Be- fore the pier could be built in the Colorado river a permit had to be obtained from the war department, which it took a year to obtain. The work of doubletracking the road from Needles to the bridge will be under way in a few weeks, the en- gineers having just made the sur veys and the line of grade. The builders of the pier are among the largest constructors of bridges Tn the United States, and originally built the cantilever span across the Colorado river, leasing it to the Santa Fe for many years. The in- crease of the traffic and the con stantly increasing weight of the freight engines have made the re- inforcement of this bridge neceS- sary. It is said that when one of the big engines reaches the center of the bridge the sag in the struc, ture becomes alarming.

 tee appointed to go over the route of the recently finished Wicken- burg Morristown road made the trip Wednesday and on their re- turn reported adversely on it's condition. It is stated by the com mittee that the grades are mostly all above 10 per cent and in some instances over 20 per cent. They further report that the route de- viates from the original survey leaving Tub Springs mile off the road, and contend that there is no permanent water on the present route. It is understood that Road Superintendent Acuff pronounces the road good piece of work.
 Yuma Sentinel: The benefits derived by Yuma from the million dollars the government is spending on the Colorado control levee are in evidence in the heavy shipments of supplies being forwarded to the construction camps, chiefly through E. F. Sanguinetti, who in two days this week sent over five car loads of grain, hay and provisions to the scene of operations below the boun- diary line. A continuous string of mule teams is engaged in hauling this stuff and will be so until April. Adding to this the large percentage of the payroll to be spent in Yuma and it can be readily seen what big asset 1t Is to the town. The citizens whose enterprise aud credit secured this much-needed financial lift deserve much honor from the community.
 Graham Guardian: The canvass for acreage to grow cantaloupes the coming season in the vicinity of Stafford has resulted in securing 132 acres. As 1t Is necessary to plant at least 200 acres in order to secure a sufficient quantity of can taloupes for shipping station, it will be necessary to get 6S more acres to be planted for the melon crop. It Is suggested that the far mers near to Stafford who have not sent in the acreage they will devote to the cultivation of cantaloupes, do so at once, so that report can made to the association for the purpose of securing the seed, etc, and to assure a shipping point at Stafford. There is no doubt but that cantaloupes can be grown suc- cessfully in this valley and that they are a money-making crop and our farmers should get to. gether on the proposition and make their first crop grand sue cess.
 Tucson Citizen: That the pre- sent city administration fully in. tends to redeem its platform pledges is shown by the appoint ment of a special committee by Mayor Huffman to consult with the city attorney in the drafting oi a weights and measures ordinance If possible the ordinances will be ready for action by the next meet ing on the first Monday in Feb ruary, but it is hardly thought that it can be prepared by tha' time.
