bile" This kind of traffic is of great value in permitting operators to reach their claims in the Koug- arok and also in enabling opera tors to leave Nome in the spring and reach it in the fall for and from Deering and Candle and other Kotzebue Sound points. This sort of traffic is very valuable in length ening the working season for the placer operator.
 Nome will always be the first port open and the last closed on the Sound Peninsula. For this req son this road will always perform very important service in distri- outing personnel. On the other hand there Is very little chance of this road assuming any impor- tance as distribution medium for freight as supplies in general will always be landed at the nearest landing point on navigable ocean waters and transported inland to the mining workings.
