this point worthy your careful considera-
tion-as difference of total elevation to
be overcome of 237 feet is a matter of Sc
rious moment, taking into consideration
the probable traffic of this road for all time.
The total distance from Montpelier TO
Rutland is seventy-five miles.
This examination, although somewhat
hurriedly made, has, think. demonstrated
sufficiently the feasibility of the route from
Montpelier to Rutland, and enough has
been done to warrant preliminary survey
of the line, which would, think, compare
favorably as to cost and grades with any
line of equal length in the state. That the
road is much needed, to develop the i'm
mense lumber resources of the section of
the state through which it passes, there
can be no question and | trust the time
will soon come when this important link
in the railroad system of our state will be-
come an established fact. All of which is
respectfully submitted.
Very respectfully yours,

MIR. Dawes Il have done just this have
taken from the appropriation bills the sums ap
proprated for the Presidents household and
bis house, just what would be expended by any
other officer who has his own house, not the
cost of the house, but the yearly appropriations
for carrying it on aud keeping it in order and
repair.
"Mr. G. F. Hoar-Is it not for maintaining
the state Of that house which pertains to the
receptions aud other expenses Of the Office?
MIR Dawes-They are the sums which the
President, if he were put on footing with
other officials, would be obliged to pay out Of
