ton and Weathers present

Baskin, county bond trustees, Mr.. E.
II. Martin, county attorney, Mr.. j. E.

with the board upon request. A num-
Der of citizens were. also present.
The chairman announced that the

of the county.
Mr.. j. E. Walker discussed the re-
vision of certain elements in to-
plans of state road No. 5, in this
county, as made by the state road de-
partment, stating that should the
state allow a slight revision of the
grading, as planned, that the saving
would be approximately $500 per
mile; also that should the department
furnish the rock for surfacing the
road from the plant at Pineola, that
the county could possibly finish the
road within department regulations
and within the funds available. Mr..
Walker stated that should the county
purchase the rock for surfacing this
road that the cost of the rock together
with freight on same would be ap-
proximately $4,000, thus leaving an
amount of money from the bond pro-
rceeds that would be insufficient to
complete the project.
/ The board requested Mr.. Walker to
complete plans for the revision desig-
mated, and when completed, to present
same to the state road department,

lures, $120,245.56, leaving a balance
ir bond fund, after payment of Octo-
Der bills, in amount of 1886, ,417.48.
Mr.. Walker stated that he had
planned maintenance program for
the roads now in existence, by placing
a crew on each certain number of
miles, without regard to lines of COM
missioners' districts and the certain
parts of roads to be rebuilt to be
worked by other crews, requesting
that all road men report to him at the
courthouse on Saturday morning at
o'clock in order to reorganize the
forces
A number of those present express
ed themselves well pleased with the
plan, believing that it would go far
toward the solution of road problems
in the county. Those present entered
into a discussion concerning the va
rious phases of the work and the
duties of the county engineer.
The board thereupon adjourned.
