Boon to iditarod District

That the establishment of this mail route will mean much to the Iditarod district is obvious. Not only will it save much time in the delivery of mail between the coast and the interior but it will open up an easy mode of travel to and from the coast, It will be stimulus to business and an aid to travel, and its value to our citizens from d business standpoint can hardly be estimated It Is needless to say that Colonel Revelle's undertaking will receive the en- thusiastic support of our citizens, and that every encouragement will be given him in carrying out his contract

Horses Will Be Used

From Iditarod to French Joe's, distance of POO miles, horses will be used. Colonel Revclle says that he sees no reason why this portion of the route cannot be served n this manner as it is better trail than the route from Valdez to Fairbanks. The problem of feed for the stock is solved by water transportation on both the kusko- kwim and Iditarod rivers, Thomas Boyd will have charge of this 200 miles of the route.
