Capt. Smith gives as his address,,

tachment. There WIS replacement

of similar detact ment in anotbsr

EXPECT EARLY WORK
ON FEDERAL ROAD.
state Highway Commissioners Expecti
to Ask for Bids on Highway
Work BY April LIST.

An early start on the work for the
new Federal aided highway through
Baraga county is promised US by State
Highway Commissioner Rogers. A
short time ago we wrote Mr.. Rogers
for information on what he intends do
ing, If anything. on the road this year.
In his reply to the editor, he says:
'.The road itself is about 80 miles
long, running across Barsga county
from the line between Baraga and
Marquette counties to the county line
between Baraga and Houghton coun-
ties. This project is one OF the most
important in the State as it connects
the largest centers of populationin the
Upper Peninsula, ard brings together
the copper district of HouRhton and
Keweenaw counties with the iron mines
Of Marquette. BY means OF other
state trunk lines, this road will afford
a connection with the South Range in
Iron, Gogebie and Dickinson counties.
"Ths project was presented to the
Federal Government some time ago,
and as you are undoubtedly aware, was
fayorably acted upon by the Secretary
Of Agriculture.
1.-THE survey Of the entire road has
teen completed and the plans were
lust transmitted last week to the
Federal Government for their criticism.
A large amount of preliminary work
has been necessary in order to enable
this State to take advantage OF the
opportunities offered by the Federal
Government. Most Of this preliminary
work has been completed.
lowing to the extreme length OF
the survey and the detail required by
the Federal Government, the work Of
making the survey and drawing up the
plans necessarily consumed great
deal of time.
1--WE hope that early approval OF the
plans for this work will be obtained so
as to enable Us to take bids on the road
about April lst. Bids will be taken on
the whole work complete, and also on
sections. 1t may be possible that
difficulty would be encountered in
letting the whole contract toone party,
and to insure its economy of constIuc-
tion in both money and time, we will
be able to handle it in separate sections
if necessary.
