kEhPENICH TALKS
ON GOOD ROADS

Eugene Kempenich, the well
known merchant of Peralta, Va
lencia county, and chairman of
the board of county commits
sioners, was in Albuquerque yes
terday for the day to meet state
engineer James A. French, who
spent the day in the city return
ing from Santa Fe after a three
weeks trip through the state in
specting road work.
Il am here" said Mr.. Kempe-
mich, to consult with Mr.. French
concerning proposed road work in
our county to be carried out in
the immediate future. We are not
prepared to tell you in detail of
our plans as yet, and would pre-
fer that the roads speak for them
selves, but | believe am safe in
saying that we are going to show
you road boosters here in Berna-
lilo county what real good road
work means. We are going right
to it and will be prepared to give
you a demonstration very Soon."
There is much good road work
under way in the state, " said Mr..
French, land we hope for some
substantial showing of results be-
fore the end of the year. The
engineers Office, however, is bad
ly hamrered by lack Of funds ard
much Of the work we had hope d
to carry ont at once may be de-
layed unless some means is found
for supplying funds.
Il hope that we may proceed
at once On the work on the Albu-
querque-Jemez road. The funds
provided, Sc, 900, are hardly suf.' =
cent, but this will mean imme-
diate completion of the prelim:-
nary work. | think, in fact, that
my assistants have completed the
surveys and that when | get to
Santa Fe we will be prepared to
proceed.
There is not very much actiy-
ity in irrigation construction in
the state just now. Several of
the big companies are doing some
work, but on the whole the situc-
ton is quiet. Work at Elephant
Butte is continuing steadily and
storage of water, probably, will
begin at the big dam in 1915. 1t
is an enormous project and as a
matter Of course must move slow
ly. Everything considered fair
progress has been made on the
work.
