Detour Is Bad.
In speaking about the roads would
say that the detour between Chehalis

roads l have seen in this country.
Fifteen miles of almost impossible
hills, mountains, Is to 80 per cent
grades and deep sand. There is an
other bad stretch near Roseburg, Ore,
where the road is very narrow and al
most impossible for two cars. This
repeats itself in the 26OO-foot climb
over the Cascades north of Medford,
Ore. Here the road is on the side of
a precipice, 1000 feet above the plain,
and is exceedingly dangerous. An
other bad stretch, though not nearly
SO dangerous, is that on the northern
side of the Siskiyou range. Here
the road is covered with sharp little
rocks and leads in curved manner
some three and half miles about
1000 feet high. The worst roads in
regards to actual rough bumpiness
which we have encountered on this or
any part of the western coast is that

close onto ESQ miles, consists of about
