Reports we get from over the county
the past week indicate that most OF
the worst places caused by the recent
heavy rains have been repaired and
travel over the roads and bridges has
been pretty generally resumed. The
bridge over Bluff Creek on the Stage
Road between this city and Oakland
was ne of the last to be repaired,
pile driver being required and there
was difficulty in getting one there Tor
the work That has been put in order
and travel over that road is again pos
sible, tho there are rough roads and
I washes yet to be repaired along the
| line of that road. The graders went
J out as far as they could and put part
} Of the road in fine shape and the other
