The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1913-05-07

It Will be seen by the above table
that the amount Of money necessary
for the construction and maintenance
of county roads is gradually increas-
ing and will probably reach the sum
OF S1o0.000 during the present year.
Your committee believes that this
money Is being expended wisely by
the county commissioners under eX-
listing conditions, but the fact that
so large an amount Is required for
maintenance convlnces us OF the no
cessity OF the construction Of per-
menent highways without further
delay.
Salt Lake county has authority un-
der the law 10 issue bonds UP to
sl,720 900. A preliminary estimate
made for the benefit OF your commit
tee by a competent authority leads
TO the conclusion that the sum OF
1000 900 would construct complete
system OF first class highways
throughout Salt Lake county besides
providing for the widening and i'm
provement of all canyon roads

ct al, VS.. Geo. sFoWlie, county
clerk, asking that the clerk be re-
strained from calling the Wheat
land county election.
The Injunction was granted tenn
porarily and the final hearing Of
the case will be held today. The
reason advanced for the Injunction
was that it will leave Sweet Grass
county with a less assessed valu-
alton than required by law. Still
water county has been created
since the petitions for Wheatland
county were circulated. If the
election was held on, May 9th, and
carried, it would be null and void.

Smith River Development CO., and
the property of the company will
be sold by sheriff's sale in May.
The amount involved was 1884, ,2O9.-

The people of LewistoWn showed
last year that they liked good
baseball, and this season they will
be given better baseball than ever.
All of these towns are good ball

were used as a skating rink the
last winter. The boys will be out
to work a little this evening OF
tomorrow and baseball practice
will start soon. There are many
promising boys here who will try

of course, is going to try for the
