The Rep Mountain Road Will Be Let On April Second
The contract for the building of this road will be let on the 2d of April. It would be folly and a blow to Leavenworth interests if the project fails for lack of bidders. The state road, funded by 3000 from the last legislature and 1500 from the county, would unlock a rich mining district with developed mines likely to pay. If completed last year, machinery would have moved to Red Mountain mines. the obstacle is a thirty to forty mile缺 road.
