Route Decide To Use Antelope Valley Visit Eureka

On Sunday last two members of the Board of County Commissioners Mesars Caperton and Star accompanied by Gael S Hoag visited Eureka. They were driven over the road by A Leuson in his Ford to inspect the roads to White Pine County and to secure Eureka County cooperation for better road conditions. The summit over White Pine mountain was found nearly impassable for autos previously. the new route via Antelope Valley has no steep grades and impressed the commissioners who will let a contract to William Mateau of Hamilton to repair the old road. In Eureka they met the county board which promised to start road work immediately. The likelihood is the San Francisco road will soon be as good for travel as Currant Creek and Toubap families routes.
