Chairman Houston in his report points ont that such a road would vitalize the great valley of che Alaskan interior, containing an immense agri. cultural territory, and @ line from the coast to Fairbanks will provide com munication with Che Tananaand Yukon rivers, having hundreds of miles of navigable water, which steamboats already are traversing. The plan also contemplates two short branch lines to connect with the Behriug river and the Mstanuaka coal delds.
