their attention after the regular
monthly bills had been considered and
disposed Of.
The board of appraisers which had
been appointed to set value on the
property to be used for construction

further with the matter at the present
time, but laid it over for further con-
sideration.
A petition in the usual form, asking
for the fixing of regular boundaries
for the Schurz road through the Hol.
land lane, was presented. The object
of the petitioners was the elimination

No action was taken by the board
as this road will be part OF the new
Nevada highway, and the route will
be determined by the highway engi
ncers.

issued to w. J. Essen. of Como and
w. B. Robiing, OF Silver.
