report that, according to the estimate
of the surveyor, the work can be
done for about $1,000. Under the
plan the Eola and the Brophy hills

the fills made which would provide
about a four per cent grade. The
commissioners have arrived at no de-
cision in the matter but intimate that
the work will be ordered.

from the end Of the present maead-
am and working westward.
