PAGE EIGHT — THE BISMARCK TRIBUNS BURLEIGH 0p. CANNOT BUILD MANDAN'S ROAD Authority to Spend $10,000 Across the River rE | ON Burleigh county commissioners, in meeting here yesterday afternoon with members of the Morton county board of commissioners, informed the Morton county board that they are without authority to spend between $90,000 and $125,000 to aid in con- structing a viaduct and road into Mandan from the end of the Missouri river bridge: | The Burleigh county board mem- bers stated that they stood by the original agreement, drawn when the bridge project was put through, which provided for a fill and 5 per cent grade on the west side of the river. | The bridge project itself included the bridge structure which now has been virtually completed, including the bridge between the piers and the con-| crete approaches on each end. There’ is a separate federal project for a} ‘highway from Bismarck to the bridge. There was also a separate agreement for constructing the grade on the west side of the river. It had been expected by the state’ highway. commission engineers that a, temporary fill and roadway would be’ built,on the west side of the river; this year, so that the bridge could be, in use by June or July. However, the Morton county board now insists that the entire bridge project be re-opened, the territory between the end of the bridge and Mandan be declared a part of the bridge contract and a concrete | viaduct built into Mandan. The cost of this has been variously estimated from $300,000; up. The- Burleigh county board, in session yesterday af- ternoon, estimated it would cost Bur- leigh county from $90,000 to $125,000 if the county helped build the viaduct on the Mandan side of the river. They; are without authority to spend the; money in Morton county. unless the! bridge projeet is reopened, and decline ‘ to reopen it. The ‘Burleigh county board’s view is that'a temporary fill can be built on | the west side of the river and if Mor- ton county desires a paved road she can make a separate project in which Morton county, the government and the state would participate but in| which Burleigh county taxpayers! would not participate. i Members of the Mandan Commer- cial club, in meeting, declared for a reopening of the bridge project and building of a viaduct which would en- tail Burleigh county participation at} a cost of many thousands of dollars. The answer of the Burleigh county board of contentions regarding over- flow on the west side of the river is that the end of the concrete approach is now higher than the city of Man- | dan, and it would be necessary, if the ; Morton county view is acccepted, to} build a bridge into Mandan. ENGINEERS IN DISCUSSION OF ROAD PROBLEMS Take up Proposed Road Amend- ments at Their Meeting Held Last Night An exhaustive discussion on’ the proposed constitutional amendment and highway measures of the State Good Roads Association took place last night at the monthly meeting of the North Dakota Chap\'er pf the American, Agsociation of. Engineers which was, held in the Commercial Club Rooms. The proposed legislation was virtu- ally re-endorsed by the engineers as- sembled. Paul Hegdal, Assistant Engineer of » the State Highway Commission open- ed the. subject with a description of the road building situation as it ex- ists in the state at. present, pointing |. out therlack of system:and effective highway,improvement by-counties and townships ~and describing the ob- stacles and adverse conditions en- countered even by the state highway |g department in the early and compre- hensive improvement highways or main traveled roads of the state. ‘C. A. Haskins, also an Assistant En- gineer -of the Highway Commission then followed with a discourse on the essential. features of the proposed amendment and measures. He empha-|@ sized the necessity of the states tak- ing full advantage of federal aid and meeting wifh the requirements of the federal aid road act. Attention was also called to the results that might be expectéd to be accomplished by the new legislation. , Various other speakers were called upon to enumerate such objections as they have heard against the new legis- lation so that an opportunity might be afforded those present to present the proper answers to overcome such objections The general purpose of discussing azd studying ‘these im- portant matters was to acquaint the engineers with the nature and extent of the opposition and also with the proper answers to the same, so that when about. the state in the near fu- ture the engineers might be able to meet all arguments and aid the State Good Roads Association in its cam- paign for placing on the statute books | the necessary legislation to keep| North Dakota among the forefront with other states in ‘the matter of} road building. | Outside speakers who also partici: pated in the discussion were Geo.

Among the points served on the road are the state insane asylum near Jamestdwn; Ho- mer, Kloze, Sydney, Millarton, Nor- tonville, Franklin, Edgeley, ‘Complaint was made that. the pres- ent‘combination rates over the various lines and Midland Continental on lig- nite coal from western North Dakota mines to these points is unreasonable and unlawfully discriminatory. It was complained that the rate on the Mid- land. Continental from: Jamestown south was much greater per mile’than the haul over the Northern Pacific, The state is interested because of the cost of the freight on coal from Jamestown to the state insane hos- pital a distance of less than three miles. The present rate is alleged to be so high ae to force towns on the Midland Continental to use eastern coal rather than western North Da- kota lignite.
