OVERLAND 70 CAPE NOME.
EXPEDITION WILL CROSS FROM
PORTAGE BAY, COOK INLET.
Over 700 Miles of Level Land MASH
ing-start to He Made From Seat
tie I'm Februar-L. l.. BALES, Pfon-
eer Alaskan, Leader of the Party.

Lovers OF adventure and particularly that
kind involving hazardous Alaskan winter
travel will soon have the opportunity OF
noting the departure of an expedition from
this city which has for its task the difficult
feat of reaching Cape Nome by an overland
journey from Portage bay, Cook inlet,
across the snow-covered plains OF the Alas
ka peninsula and the lowlands beyond
the Yukon to the famous American dig
gings. The journey includes 75o miles OF
'mushing."
The leader of this expedition is to be L.
l.. Bales, a pioneer prospector not unac-
quainted with the dangers and hardships
incident to travel in Alaska. Bales arrived
in Seattle last night on the steamer Resale
from the Porcupine district He came out
especially to lead the expedition. one Of the
principal promoters of which Is Frank h.
vrcoman, Of Chicago. There are to be
twenty people in the party. Some OF them
are in Seattle, others are coming from
Chicago and few will join at Sitka.
The start will be made in February, the
expedition leaving Seattle on one OF the
Lynn canal steamers connecting at Sitka
with a vessel, presumably the Wolcott
which makes Portage bay, where the over
land journey begins Portage bay is on
the peninsula 125 miles northwest of Ka-
diak. From this point the route lies by
way of Illiamina lake. Bales says the land
is as level as one could wish. He has
travelled the first half OF the route during
winter before, and he stated last night that
he did not regard the making Of the entire
trip as one of exceptional hardship.

President Cushing, OF the Port AM

he Completed In Eight Months.

C. A. Gushing, president of the Port
Angeles Eastern railway, accompanied by
his wife, arrived I'M the city yesterday.
They are en- route to Portland to meet
their son, who is returning from school in
California.
"Our railroad Is in the best possible
shape" said Mr.. Cashins at the Seattle
last night. "Our location survey has been
completed as far as Hoodsport. A few days
surveying parties, on account of the wet
weather, which permitted them to work
only about two days week. Just as
soon as the weather settles they VIII again
enter the field and complete their work
to Olympia. Our right-of-way proves much
better than we had expected, although In
stead of being ITO miles, as we had thought,
1t win be 1876 miles. The road will be easy
OF construction, and the cost will be much
less than we anticipated. About the only
real rock work we shall have will be near
settles we shall begin our grading, and
eight months later shall have completed
the line from Port Angeles to Olympia.
Before the present year Is out we shall
be operating through trains.
I'VE have many applications already for
mill, sites. My son, Charles z. Cushing,
is building lumber mill at Port Angeles.
Pierson & Son, Of McKeesport, Pa, are
also putting up a shingle and barrel mill
at that place. Other mills will be located
at different points along the line, within
sites at various points along Our line DUR
ing the coming summer Just how many
there will be we cannot tell. Our road
will run through a rich timber and agrt-
cultural district, and the principal portion
OF its freight will be these products"

ROOT NOT A CANDIDATE.
Prefers to Remain Secretary OF War
to Being Elected vice President
of the United Staten.

MILWAUKEE,. Wis, Jan. 10.-Henry c.
Payne, national Republican committee
man Of Wisconsin, today received a let
ter from Hon. Eiihu Root secretary Of
be candidate for the vice presidency of
the United States. In the letter Mr.. Root
said he deemed 1t far more important to
the country, the administration and the
Republican party at this critical time of
war, that he should continue to attend to
the business of the war office. Not that
there are no other men who could well dis
charge the duties of secretary of war, but
having spent five or six months in becom-
ing familiar with the subject, no other
man could step in and take up the work
without going through the same training.
Being candidate for vice president
would mean his practical withdrawal from
the duties of the war offlce within a very
short time.
