the manner of plant growth. In normal territory the spurs and branches very soon exceed in length the main trunk.
 If the two trunk lines in Alaska are built and provision made for the building of branches as required, railroad growth will go forward there as it has everywhere else, and in due time the country will be we'll served with roads.
 ''The cost of construction of rail- roads in Alaska would depend on the character of railroad built. A rail- road, like a house, can be made to cost little or much. A standard gauge railroad could be built into Alaska at cost of from S25,O00 to $2OO,OOO per mile, depending upon the specifications. The Fl miles of Alaska Northern track is said % have cost about s60,0OO a mile. It is over the ruggedest portion of the route. The Copper River & North western Railroad is said to have cost nearly s1OO,0OO per mile. It's construction is very substantial, and the physical difficulties contended with were very severe. Probably no other railroad in the world had greater difficulties to overcome than this line. It is probable that under government construction, especially if the work were carried on by what is called force account" or by days labor, the construction would cost from 50 to 100 per cent more than if done by a private company.
 eff the problem is rightly solved the lines will not only pay for themselves, but the country will give back vast returns in trade and in national wealth. New and populous states can be created there sufficient to form nation within themselves"

Falcon Joslin, of Fairbanks, ar rived in Cordova this afternoon en route to Seattle. He is one of the most enthusiastic men in the terri tory over the future possibilities of Alaska. He views a great develop ment in the course of a few years, and no man in this northland is giv- ing more personal effort to bring about the results that all are hoping for. Each winter MT. Joslin spends considerable of his time in Wash ington appearing before the various departments and congressional com mittees giving information on sub jects under consideration. He is one Of the best posted men in the terri tory on all the problems which con- cern the people so vitally. He has given much interesting and valuable data on the transportation and coal PANbiSAo' iiio NiSWo Ou construction in Alaska are briefly given as follows:
 There are two great navigable rivers in Alaska, viz, the Yukon, with it's tributaries, constituting approximately 4,OO0 miles of navig- able water, and the Kuskokwim and it's affluents, having about 2,0OO miles of navigable water. Plainly the first steps in railroad develop ment is to connect those two river systems with tidewater on the south coast. This will require two separ- ate lines of approximately 45O miles each. The construction of these two trunk lines with certain spurs to the coal fields is recommended in the report of the Alaska railway commission.
 "It is law of growth of rail- roads that as soon as a trunk line is laid down it begins to throw out spurs and branches very much after

 Volney Richmond manager of the Northern Commercial Company with headquarters Fairbanks now in Corova and will out the Alameda tomorrow night He will spend the winter n San Francisco He states that owing the sharp competition and low passenger fares into by the steamers of his we'll the operated by the White Pass Yukon Railroad that there was great oupourng of people from Fairbanks Tanana valley country During the closing days of navigation they both ways the river via Dawson and the river via St. Michael As consequence he looks for very light travel this winter from Fairbanks via Chna and Corova However he thinks the number returning by this route will greatly exceed the travel of last winter He figures that about 200 people went out the last boat and starting December they will begin to return and will continue spring. thus affordlng big travel through Cordova.
 MT. Richmond states that in his opinion there will be great number of miners and prospecors go from the the Chisana gold dggngs this winter He believes that more than two-thlrds of them will via Cordova and Mccarthy lie IS convinced that this is quesonaby the shortest and easiest route his investigation satisfies him that double enders with 1000 pounds horse from McCarthy up the Nzina river 30 miles to the Nzna Glacier and from there the glaciers and the headwaers of the Chisana It is then from 10 miles the varous claims that have been worked This distance will covered in from three to four days freight he thinks can be hauled for less than 10 cents per pound
 Mr. Richmond states that his company experimented on the project of getting passengers freight on small boats m the from Fairbanks With steamer they reached the or the Nebesna rver where and freight landed and the steamer returned making the round nine days the shortest time required by any that left Fairbanks The also considered the idea of operating from Dawson and the White river but this abandoned aer an investigation It apparent that only feasible way to take freight to the dggngs either in summer or winter from Corova Mccarthy that the Northern Commercial company concluded that it would be losing game to compete with the superior advantages fr lie says that there is much talk about what Dckeson of the White Pass going he believes that IS done largely to divert travel to White Horse that
