 Pima County Acts
 Encouraging news of road repair ing comes from many points on the Borderland Route. The Pima county board of supervisors has given or ders for the immediate rel epairing of the Bisbee-Tucson road in that county. and the following from the Fl Paso Times shows what the Fl Paso boosters Of the Bnrderland route are doing in the way of road building:
 The Canutillo road. said r. w Eubank, member of the survey com mittee, can be put in excellent re- pair for an outlay of between $2.300 and S2,400. One bridge, a small one and about five culverts. would have to be built. To build the road to the top of the mesa would cost $500 and the road on the top of the mesa to Lanark, a distance of about ten miles. could be constructed for about $l.500. This would bring the total expense. counting the installa- ton of the bridge and culverts, un- der S2,J00 The road up the hill to the mesa would be on a grade of cnly about four per cent, and could be taken on the high speed. There would be no sand on this part Of the road. as the base is an all hard clay one. On the mesa the wind would keep that part of the road free. ] estimate that the expense of upkeep of the road would be very light.
 The road along the mesa could be constructed in about four weeks. working four or five teams and about half a dozen men would do the work in this time. The road up the mesa could be built in two or three weeks This road would be open all the year. as there would be no danger from the river.
 In regard to the building of this road it was suggested that the county would prODably pay a part of the cost. A bond election for $7,00O worth of bonds is to be held at Canu- tillo on April 10 for the purpose of building bridges. It is estimated that about sIJ00 of this amount will be left over. and it is considered probable that this money will be used for the road. A committee will wait on the commissioners and put Up the proposition of the county bearing Q part Of the expense.
 In the matter of raising funds for the building of the road, it was de cided to call on each of the club members for a subscription Of s. This will bring in about S1 ,5O0. 9th CT automobile owners who are not members will be asked for a like contribution. and the business men of the city will be asked to contrib ute. No trouble is anticipated in raising the funds. The committee in charge of the financial end is: P. II. Young, chairman, Charles Stevens and Frank Powers.
 It was decided to have commit tee meet H. Drum, the representa- tive of the TranscOntinental Touring
