The road that Is to be constructed consists of two miles ot cement road south ot the river bridge and one mile north of the cement road on North Main: Our local contractor, OUf Nelson, lost the job by Just $163. Mr. Nelson Nel-son has been the contractor for all of our present cement roads and the quality ot his work has been ad vertised over the state. Many city and county com'mlslsoners have come to Logan to see the work here, and all have agreed that the work was of the highest order. It Is unfortunate for Mr. Nelson to lose the contract by so small an amount as $163. The amount ot the contract Is nearly $44,000, exclusive ex-clusive ot cement and steel which will be furnished by the state. There were three other bidders, but they were very much higher. The State Road Commission and the county commission handled the bids. ' I |
