The Emmett Index May 7, 1903
Wagon Road to Roosevelt

Frank E. Johnesse, superintendent of construction of the Thunder Mountain 
Wagon Road, to be built from Long Valley to Roosevelt, expects to leave about 
May 15 for a trip over the route in company with a party of prospective 
contractors. The contract will be awarded soon and work will be resumed as 
soon as weather conditions will permit. Under the provisions of the law passed 
by the last legislature appropiating $20,000 to aid in constructing this road, 
a similar amount was to be raised on the outside. Colonel Dewey and his 
associates have already placed $10,000 at the disposal of the state and 
arrangements have been made to deposit the remaining $10,000 on May 10.
