hustle among the workers in bringing
out the voters, all parties displaying
much activity. The Republican organ
ization's forces worked in their old

county commissioners called up the
Sentinel from Colbran recently, after
an inspection of roads following recent
rains had been made, and said that
damage TO county roads would be in

to Mr.. Johnson, is the washing away
of six bridges on the road to DeBeaue.
Except in the canons, little damage
has been done. All roads are now
open. including roads TO DeBeque and
Colbran, temporary bridges having
been built where the former bridges
were washed away.
