j ASHLAND, Aug. 21. Beginning
! tho present season without further
j delay, it is planned to go right ahead
with the Ashlnd Canyon roadway,

eiiual basis in the notable improve
ment. .Members of tho city council
and county court, reinforced by the
presence o State Engineer Reyning
and Jtoad Supervisor Uruin, have
made a personal inspection of the
route which will practically follow
the line of the old roadway modifying
some of the grades and extending the
width in instances on tho safety first
j principle. The work will bo divided
: into sections, the initial one extend
ing from city limits to the upper in-
taKCH irom three to four miles in ex
i tent, the plan outlined being to have
, tne work thoroughly done "on the in
j stallment plan," instead of merely
i superficially treated as a whole.

j, mountain roadway which motor cars
; could easily negotiate, extending from
Asnianu to n point on the Southern
1'uclflc cither nt Siskiyou or between
ii that summit elevation and Steinninn.

jf trip which would even rival the Green
. Rpiing Mountain roadway's attrac
.j tions.
