With Washington, Jefferson and
Jackson, Davis was an empire builder
in dream and In plan, even If condi-
tions interrupted his schemes. In his
day the question Of transportation was
as yet unsolved. New States were
gradually pushing Westward and their
goods had difficult and expensive pas
sage through the mountains to the
Eastern coast. A railroad from Mem
phis to Charleston through Montgom-
cry and Atlanta was already under
way, and a second one was planned
through jackson to Mobile. These en-
beavers set Davis planning a road from
Memphis to California. The roads
would join the South and the West and
would be adequate to handle trade
diverted down to the South instead
of going to the East.
In order to carry out his plan, 1t was
necessary to send groups Of engineers
along the three possible routes to Cali
fornia. Much information of the new
West was thus accurately obtained and
laid before the members Of Congress.
The route most favored was that to the
extreme South. passing with dificulty
through New Mexico, an obstacle
easily avoided by the purchase Of land
lying to the south and known as the
| Gadsden Purchase. which was OBJ
