Drainage Needed
Says Tile Maker

efficient drainage will do more
to solve one of the big problems con-
fronting the Grand Valley than any
other single thing" said p. l.. Briney
this morning. Mr.. Briney is an eN-
pert drainage man, now connected
with a Colorado Springs tile manu-
featuring company. He has been in
Grand Junction for several days,
travelling over some of the seep sec
tions of this valley and states that
with correct drainage most of these
could be eradicated.
While here he interviewed several
owners of seep land and found that
the ranchers were waking up to the
fact that it could be remedied and
were doing all in their power. ''ln a
few years now. seep trouble is going
to cut a great deal in the value of
your land if it is not taken care OF at
once. | am glad to say that the
movement is well under way for the
stopping of wasting water which
causes trouble. With correct drain
age the trouble will be averted."
Mr.. Briney closed a contract with
the local branch. the Mesa Lumber
company for several thousand feet of
tile.

This afternoon al AIS Chair
man CherringtOn Of The mayors
advisory board reported TO the
county commissioners that the
Main street bridge had, in their
opinion, been completed in sub
Staniial conformity TO the plans
and specifications; that the
county had not been defrauded
by the contractors; that the
commissioners should not fuTth-
eT resist payment for the out
standing $4,000 in warrants
and that the. commissioners
should pay The balance Of S16,-
600 on the contract price.
II is understood that the
board will comply with this ad-
vice.

This morning Mr.. Patterson went
exhaustively into the weight of steel
in the bridge us whole. Heretofore
the discussion had covered the indi-
ridual members OF the structure
which We're said to be light and in
sufficient to carry the loads This
morning Mr.. Patterson introduced
copies OF the bills of lading for the
steel. He showed total of 574. 900
odd pounds, as weighed by the rail
way company. whereas Engineer
Geldef claimed that there was only
534, 900 pounds used. In yesterdays
testimony it was found that Gelder
had erred by eighteen tons in his cal
culations, so that when that amount
was deducted from the $1,000
pounds which Gelder said the bridge
should have contained the figures
were pretty close together.
Mr.. Patterson said that the bridge
cost him little more than S6O.0O0
complete, and the contract price was
something more than $4,000 He
admitted. however that by the time
he paid his attorneys and the ex-
penses he would have to meet in or
der to collect his warrants that the
profit would be exhausted.
The mayors stated, however, that
they had no desire TO go into the
cost of the bridge, as that did not
really concern the people. The in
terest to Mesa county. they held,
related only to the cost of the
bridge to the county and its safety
and stability.
Wilbur Denious, attorney for the
company, made the following state
ment to the board:
- nd
that we are here to go into any of
these rumors about the bridge. We
will settle any report that may have
arisen, and | don't want anybody to
say that we have avoided any phase
of this matter. In other words,
want this investigation to be final,
and ii there are any matters you
want light on, | hope you will tell
us what they are, and we can thresh
il all out.
Mr.Denious followed this by bring
ing up the old question OF pier h
and it's reconstruction.
The attorneys for the bridge COM
pany stated that they proposed to
try the warrant Injunction suit on
Nav 25 before Judge Cayender when
he will come to this city to hear the
case The judge overruled the dis
trict attorneys demurrer last Marcl.
and that was expected to really end
the case. but it has since been deter
mined that District Attorney Weiser
intends to put the matter before the
supreme court for a final hearing.
