Show THE ROAD BOAD the road 7 gli logan canyon is in a bad and condition in III places it is hardly passable here and there huge buge holders bolders adorn aborn the drive wa way y while deep mud holca and dabre dangerous r wa washouts shouts render a ride by that route somewhat exciting 0 some parts of the road aro are good and if the county would but take tho the matter in hand and do it right there would he be little need of future repairs there is no question but what the ad vantages to be derived from opening up this canyon would in a short time repay the county for all the expense incurred in making tile the road the new route as selected by mr mccranney cranney would pass through a vast forest of yellow pine I 1 it would seem from ill all accounts that the lumber thus made accessible would w 0 uld justify the building 0 of a road even if there were no c country beyond to communicate with which is the real object by this plan it is the intention to follow the main canyon across the ford then to go up the right hand fork as far as 8 crookston Croo keton keto ns hollow so far there is a road at present which with but slight expense can bo be made an excellent drive after leaving 7 tho the right hand fork the road must be made new but we are arc assured that it will be direct to tile tho bear lake valley we learn from those who are arc familiar with the different routes that this would shorten sli orten the distance over the range to our nei neighbors I on the cast by about ten miles miles no insignificant I 1 matter in a days drive A good cooj and short road between this and rich count counties ies would turn to us the trade which evens ton now enjoys it would be a good thing for us and a good tiling thing for our bear lake neighbors 7 another project under consideration is to repair the road from here to and improve the grado grade in temple fork the distance through to in this way would be close to forty miles and still another plan is to follow tile the main canyon to beaver and go thence to garden city over the old bear lake road this latter would pass through a valuable mining 0 country and for this reason is deemed the most advisable course to take one is ia certain whatever route the county court may choose the old road should be repaired and kept in c good order as far up tip as the alie mining camp there will be mineral shipped from that point in the near future and while the miners generally are interested in this county if the road is not repaired they will be compelled to haul to MoM montpelier pelier which will then become their trading point let every man mail who is interested in good roads and the welfare of this county contribute something 0 to the committee now at work collecting funds for the prosecution of this work A good canyon road means more trade more trade means mear ismore more money more money means better times those who bring their produce to our markets will trade with us in turn the more the better belter let us have lave free unrestricted trade with all who care to trade with us |
