ceived. 1t is signed by Gen.

He is anxious to secure upon

trict. He earnestly solicits the
cooperation of the various camps,
the sons and daughters of the
Confederacy and of old soldiers
and old friends generally, and of
the press particularly, to put him
in correspondence with those who
would like to- go to the annual re-

may give them official recognition
upon his staff, secure for them
reduced rates on the railroads
and at the hotels. -SEARCY DAILY

CONTRACTS AWARDED
FOR % BRIDGES.

Slope County News: At The last
meeting of the board of county
commissioners held at Amidon
this week contract for the build
ing of % bridges was awarded to
The Great Northern bridge Co Ali
OF these bridges We're adbertised
some time ago but the contracts
were not let for the reason that
no reasonable bids We're received.
The great Northern Bridge Co.
was represented at the meeting by
w. f. Hewett, who contracted to
have all of these bridges complet-
ed before January I, 1917 He
says that he will put on three or
four crews of worlmen and will
rush the work. All of the bridges
will be built upon steel piling
Perhaps it is worth while not
ing that last year when the con-
tract was let for the bridge across
1.-THE Missouri river at Marmarth
for some over S11 600 that large
number of voters were up in arms
and even though the county ad-
vertised for bids in all of the
county papers and put the whole
contract through in legal form
The work was held up for months
in the courts. This week the COM
missioncrs let the contracts for
The building of % bridges for
slO.76i without advertising for
hids-and everybody is happy.
The commissioners are within their
