Commissioner Has Troubles With Quick Sand Road Bed
Highway Commissioner Clayton Bowers faces a storage of gravel and rock three feet thick on the road west of town between Jacob Wagner and Chas Evans that sinks and rises with horse traffic, indicating quicksand and a hard road bed. He will haul 200 loads of rock this summer from the Jacob Van Ness quarry to improve country roads. Albert E. Hutchinson, six years Ashton resident, seeks the office of Supervisor, backed by many citizens, noted as a successful sheep feeder and tax payer who would represent Ashton on the Board of Supervisors if elected.
