Fix the Roads.

J. E. Ferguson, commissioner of Lincoln county, was here last week looking over the necessary repair work for the roads traveled by mail stages from Miles along the Spokane river and to Davenport. He ordered the graveling of a dangerous clay grade near Crystal Cove on the Spokane river in D. F. Pankey’s district.

The entire grades of the Spokane | valley from Miles to Lincoln and to Detillion Bridge will be leveled and made safe for winter travel. Ed Newbill, road overseer of south Stevens county is graveling the Detillion canyon road on Davenport Hunter road.
