Show KIDLAicQ TRAIL WORK ' BEGINS RiGHT AWAY Our own State Treasurer Jesse D. Jewkes has spent the past week in Emery county and to say it has tioon a very busy one would hardly l.e doing - justice to the wellknoun energy of that gentleman. Making the trip primarily pri-marily :s a member of the state road commission, Mr. Jewkes has had little time i'er friendly visits that he would undoii' tedly have enjoyed making with hi innumeraole friends. C. T. Bowen met Mr. Jewkes in Price 1 ;st Friday and brought him over in his c .r, an I Monday morning they set out lor Emery where they were joined by Messrs. Rasmus JaeJbsen, Andrew Sor-enson, Sor-enson, and Louis Peterson, before mak'-ie,g mak'-ie,g th.' tnp through Saiiiia canyon.

Ti-t-re is a lorest l'urd ot $5JtK) a id a like nmou.it appropriated by rhe Sevier Se-vier commission to draw from, besides a g 1 en . :r j;-isi r b j uh of people with ready hands on the other end, and with the i'-(.UU worth of work that Emery and Feirjn are planning on jutting into toe road, there is no reason why t:iis ro.id, the only one "oren all 'the year' round as it is, should not be placed on a p ir with L:i uo--.t hig.i.vays i ijt'u state. On tlie return trip the parly was accompanied ac-companied aa far the Perron -E.nery du j way by th .- Sjvier d.'leiiiin ani j the.' ..ere u:'g!.tily surprised at the j good ca. s w-j have hire. laursiav morning early, a tiio was m to the Back horn ilat by Messrs.

Coming back to the road Messrs. Jewkes and Browning whisked away in the Miller machine, driven by Master Mas-ter Vertis, accompanied by Commissioner Commis-sioner Nieison, to be shown the work that Huntington has also so patriotically patriotical-ly done by donation. He was also well ' Dleased with this stetch, and, alto gether can well carry back to his colleagues col-leagues a story of wideawake energy on the part of the people of the Kingdom King-dom of Emery. Another tiling Mr. Jewkes placed in order oh this trip was the proposition of straightening and properly fixing up the state road from the Emery county-line county-line into Price. All road money due ' C .rbon will be hell in abeyance until thi3 is attended to in proper manner. |
