BLEWFTT ROAD OPEN FOR
TRAVEL ABOUT MIDDLEOF MAY
Seventeen Bridges to Be Rebuilt
Much of Washed Out Roadbed
to Be Rebuilt.

Road supervisor Parish was here
this week and in conversation said,
he hoped to have the road open by
the middle of May. Seventeen
bridges were washed out in the high
water last fall. Some of these will
be replaced and come will be dis
pensed with by building the road
on new ground and thus avoiding
the necessity of a bridge. Mr..
Parish has a force of men employ
ed on the road now but finds it
difficult to get all the men he wants.
He sent to Spokane for men and has
some hopes of getting a crew from
that source.
The federal government has under
consideration a proposition to make
of the Blewett road a strategic mill
tary road and in the event of its
adoption this highway would be
made into one of the best mountain
roads in the state.
