SPEND $4,000
TO CUT HILL
Commissioners Agree to Adver.
tiSe for Bids to Reduce
Fifth Street Grade.

The county commissioners this
morning adopted Il resolution to au-
thorize County Engineer James II.
Fiske to draw plans and specifica-
tions for the reduction in the slope
OF the Fifth street bridge hill from l
per cent to less than eight per cent
at an approximate cost of $4,000,
About 5000 cubic yards of dirt will
be moved.
This proposition was brought be-
fore the old board of commissioners
last year but 1t WAS found necessary
in, the interests OF economy TO close
the bridge to traffic while the work
was being done. In order not to stop
funeral professions and other neces-
sary traffic, the board decided to
await the completion of the Main
street bridge SO that the travel can go
round by way of that bridge and and the the
Gunnison while the work Was being
done.
1t is proposed to extend the length
of the slope from 400 feet to 625
feet A fence will be, built at the top
OF the cut on both sides and on the
roadway "A three foot concrete coping
will be erected to hold the gravel.
Iron posts will surmount the coping
to prevent sheep from climbing the
bank and tearing down the gravel.
Drain. bitches will be put in on both
sides The new scut will be about rs
feet. deep ut the deepest point. 1T Is
estimated.
The estimates are from $4,000 to
900 for the completed work.

While a conservationist in the
sense that he believes in protecting
the public lands, waters and timbers
from private grabbers, he is not to be

He typifies the official whom DIR.
Wiley described in his lecture here as
to have the public resources
OF the country serve the public needs,
realizing that science will find new
factors to fill the wants when pres
ent resources have been exhausted.
The order issued last night by Sec
retary Fisher authorizing all the
work that will he needed on the pro-
ject for s months relieved the minds
of the Water Users officials OF con-
siderable burden. The order was
needed at once and Mr.. Lane, taking
up the work of the secretaryship
would have had to inform himself on
this subject before he could be ex-
pected to issue the needed order. In
the meantime the local engineer and
his assistants can be going ahead
with great deal of necessary con-
while the friends of the pro-
iect can at their leisure, become ac-

Washington. ID. c., March A.
The White house is today probably
more carefully guarded than ever be-
fore, because of the great crowds in
the capital, and of the fear that
cranks might sieze upon the dying
hours OF the Taft administration to
pay annoying visits
Secret service men guarded the
mansion. and at the request of Mr.
Wilson no troops were thrown about
the White house. 1t was reported
that secret service men who served
Presidents Roosevelt and Taft would
be retained by President Wilson.
