PAVING TRIAL.

The case of the United States Fidel-
ity and Guaranty company of Mary

Construction company and Elliott and
Horne, and numerous material men
who furnished labor and material for
the West Washington street and other
portions of pavement, came up for
trial in Judge Lymans court yester-
day, the objections of material men tc
have their claims litigated in this ac-
ton on the ground that they had com

the amount of their claims against
the surety company having been over

This is a suit in which the surety
company are seeking to subject the
bonds of the city in the amount of
some forty or fifty thousand dollars to
the payment of the claims of the ma
terial men which they have been
obliged to pay because of the bank
ruptcy' of the paving contractor The

STEPS WILL De
TAKEN To TAKE
ROOSEVELT WAY

Preliminary steps toward the coun-
tvs taking over the Roosevelt road
will be taken today when petitions will
be put in circulation in Mesa by Hugh
Dana, road overseer of District T.
1t will be necessary to take such
steps as are required in the opening of
any county road There must be ten
signers in the vicinity of the road to
be opened, notices must be posted for
80 days and the board notified and
three road viewers appointed to esti-
mate the damage to adjacent property
owners. In this instance. however. the
latter stipulation will have no meaning
for the road is the desert road, a
stretch of seventeen miles from the
Eastern Canal to the Seventeen mile
post.
The mo mans road" it is understood
will cost $4,000 to repair and between
$500 and $500 year to maintain. Ii
was BUILT by the county originally but
is sadly in need of reconstruction.
The matter was called to the atten-
ton of the board by President John p.
Orme of the Water Users at the pre-
vious board meeting. Mr.. Orme made
the formal request that the road be
opened.
If the bond issue carries. the board
has practically agreed to repair the
Forest reserve section-that part of
the scenic highway leading from the
Seventeen mile post to Roosevelt. The
estimated cost Of repairs has been Civ
en- as $4,000 but even if the county
took over that part of the road the
forest reserve would bear half the eX-
pense.

spread over an enormous area started
simultaneously at Berney Mill and
Howard.
For days and weeks the mountain
eers fought the spreading flames,
sometimes bringing them nearly un-
der control and again fleeing before
the sudden rush of flames when thick
timber belts were encountered. And
in the end the fires we're victorious,
so that today they will burn slowly in
the sparser sections and the people
wait for the rains to end the work of
the flames.
Terrible devastation has been
wrought in some Of the prize beauty
spots of California. Between Duns-
muir and Sisson the work Of the
flames is everywhere apparent.
Blackened hillsides and still smoking
embers are seen on every hand.
The State highway winds in and out
of country that looks like forest
graveyard. In places the blaze has
come right down to the road, and
where once the tourist saw magnifi-
cent forests, he is now confronted by
sombre blackened stumps. Scattered
through the charred areas of such
spots are some Of the trees which
could not be downed. They stand, and
will doubtless remain for years,
SCARED and blackened and lifeless.
And near them are others which
are also standing but burned through
until only the hollow shell Of the once
green bark remains. They will stand
only until the first wind comes along,
and then 60 crashing down.
