of this proposed road, known as the
Washburn aud Superior, we did not
examine, but from our general know
ledge Of tbs country and from obser-
vatlons that we could make we
through personal inspection, and
by information obtained from people
who did not know the country, the
ROAD from this point 10 the west is
more easily constructed than the
portion we visited, until We arrived
at or near the station Of Coda. Frmo
that point on we strike different
Gu. ,racter of land, and the roads
would be more costly 10 built. The
committee thinks that this road
ishould be constructed s. there are
| no carriage roads between The west

Your committee has not inspected

has given this matter of roads cpn.

important matter your committee 10
not able 10 make final report on
this portion of the county system, as

SENATOR LaFollett's sugges-
ton that the government should
take over all of the natural re-
sources Of Alaska sounds like
good logic to US. 1t would be a
case OF everything to gain and
nothing to lose, SO far as the
people are concerned. 1t does
not seem right that the govern
ment should give away its
mines, tim Der land and har bors
to anyone. We hold that it is
just as bad to give an individual
100 acre tract of TIM Der as il
is to give corporation an iron or
coal mine. The time for squand.
ering the natural resources OF
the country is past. Practically
everything that the government
has had, forests. mines, harbors
all. have been given away. Lei
us keep what little we have In
Alaska though small as com
pared with what the nation useG
to have, it looks pretty large
with what is left of our former
natural resources. All success.
to Senator LaFollette. Lee
everyone give him a helping
hand even though they do not a
gree with him on other issues.

timber. We found that the timber
had been cut and removed and the
brush piled upon the sides. We found
also that the stump5 had been re-
moved to the distance Of about two
rods wide, the whole distance and
no grading done, except small
ditch had been constructed on the
east side of the road. From the
best information that the committee
could obtain by examination of tile
record and by information obtained
elsewhere, the cost of this four miles
of road was somett ing over $4,000
90. Your committees estimation
from what data they could obtain
concludes that the first two and one
half miles of road cost 1892 90, and
the last mile and one half COS t
S3397.0O, making the last mile
and one half cost 1866. 90 an acre
to clear and stump.
From the best information obtain
able from the imperfect records and
the IMPERFECT reports on lie and from
information obtained elsewhere the
cost uf the last mile and a half of
said road. The cost OF clearing and
stumping the right of wav two rods
wide would be $685. 90 per acre.
This sum seems TO your committee
to be large amount for the work
done, for figuring from this basis
this last mile would cost s2264. 90 per
mile, if our information is correct,
there is something wrong in the con.
struction of this road. Ii there Is
any explanation in relation to this
matter your committee would be
gratified 10 have this explanation
given. Your committee thought it
would be proper for this road 10 be-
completed so that it could be used
for travel, 1t being a connecting link
between Bayfield, and Cornucopia.
A few days later your committee
inspected the road leading from
Washhurn west, known as the Wane-
bo road, and we found the road in
very good condition, for the distance
of about eight miles. Here the road
that was constructed last year ends.
We inspected the country for this
road west as far as about five miles
further, and we found that by rum.
ing line along the township line
between towns forty eight north and
forty north and part of range
six and part of range seven that
we could by deviating from this line
at several points find an excellent
grade, and in many instances appro-
pirate railroad grades which would
make the cost very small for this
road. This road would not 60 on
the township line exactly but it
would follow it very near ind would
