HARBOR PROJECT
SOON UNDER WAY
Council Decides to Issue
Bonds as Preliminary to
Big Undertaking
$723, 900 MORE TO
BE SPENT IN CITY

On advice Of City Solicitor Huxley
and on the recommendation Of Council
man Forwood, chairman OF the finance
committee, City Council at the meeting
OF the committee OF the whole last
night, decided TO authorize a bond issue
for s523,OO0. to be issued at once; also
to issue bonds for the entire amount
to be used in carrying out the harbor
project This latter amount is not yet
known. The finance committee and the
Board Of HarbOr Commissioners will
confer this afternoon regarding the
amount that at this time would seem
TO be sufficient, and give the ordinance
It's first and second reading before
Council tonight, but this amount may
be changed before the bonds are actu-
ally issued. This course is necessary
Mr.. Huxley said. as from the wording
Of the act authorizing the bond issue
IL would seem that Council is limited
TO one set Of bonds for harbor work
10 is feared that II Council authorized
only the actual amount needed at this
time they would be unable 10 issue ad-
dHional bonds without another act OF
the Legislature.
The amount Of bonds which are 10
be issued at this time Is s723 900. It
was az FIRST though better TO issue
these bonds in two installmenis so
that no unnecessary interest might ac-
crue. but owing TO matters that were
brought before Council last night Il
WITS decided that Il would be 10 the
interest Of The city 20 make one issue,
which VIII be done as soon as the
necessary formalities have been com
piled with. This money will be distri-
buted as follows: Street and Sewer
Department, for new street paving,
s3O0.OO0; Board of Harbor Commits
sioners, S333.OO0.~fOr the building OF
the pier at Church street wharf. snd
the acquiring Of the Lobdell tract at
the mouth Of the Christians and the
preliminary work; Board OF Water
Commissioners, 10000, for the install
lation Of new water mains.
In making his report Mr.. ForwOod
called attention TO the necessity for
granting the last named amount at
this time.
Before any work can be done on the
streets" said Mr.. Forwood, ut Is nee
essary that all underground work be
completed, and we are anxious to put
no obstacle in the way Of the Water
Department In getting this work done
as expeditiously as possible, so that
the Street and Sewer Department may
be able TO go ahead with their work
Mr.. Forwood explained at some
length the need for money by the Board
OF Harbor Commissioners. 1t would

STOCK Is TRAPPED BY DEEP
SNOWFALL ON WEST SLOPE
Ranchers Fear Cattle and Sheep
Caught on Range by Unprecedented
Storm May Have Perished.

Grand Junction News:-
Heavy loss of stock on the Western
slope as a result of the unprecedented
fall Of snow during the past few DAYS
Is feared by many ranchmen. With
hay prices remaining high. many Of
the ranchmen permitted their stock
to remain on the open range. The
two feet of snow now covering the
low country, with from three TO five
feet IN the high ranges, has showed
IN much Of the stock for the winter.
Already efforts are being made to
break trails to some of the snow
bound cattle that they may be trailed
to the lower districts. Efforts are al
so being made TO get n number of
hocks of sheep in from the higher
districts to the valley where they can
be wintered in safety.
Many struggling cattle remained on
Grand Mesa after the fall roundup.
and unless they can be found and
trails broken to them they will perish.
The snowfall at Grand Junction
totaled 23z inches, the heaviest In
the known history of the valley. OF
this amount, II inches fell in "a
hours, the heaviest previous record
fall for that period being inches.
