i ilo is no I. connected. in any

pcreoiis seeking favors from the
government. While he has ever
been the friend and attorney of
the laborer and the poor man, yet
ho is no blatant demagogue,
seeking to array class against

ileges for none."
5 He is in political harmony
with the dominant party in the
present llouso of Representa

dominant party of tho nation for
tho next four years, and so, will
be tetter ablo to get things for
Alaska than would a socialist or
a lepudlican (be he a standpat

wants now. Wo cannot wait for

drained, so that th« difficulties of
the past will ' be forgotten. Of
course, where the work is fr?sh
raid owing to the constant rains
the road bed is i.nturally soft, but
in the long run it will be for the
belter, as the road will be packed
harder.
"This fall we will run over the
road work done earlier in the sea
son, and smoolhe down the road
bed so that with the opening of
the n »xt season we will have a
good wagon road. There are ten
crews at work between the two
terminals of the road and they
are doing good work. Olson's
crew is now building the bridge
crossing Stewart creek and Hol
land's men have just completed
!iie bridging across Jarvis creek
and will move on to the Delia to
bmld a bridge there, later going
lo (Junn creek, to bridge that
stream. A pile bridge 300 feet
long is being erect.;d across the
glacier stream just beyond Mil
ler's, and ultimately the entire
stream will be bridged by piling.
"1 look upon this road as my
life's work and 1 hope to have it
completed to my satisfaction be
fore my labors are ended in Alas
ka. It is my ambition to make
lliis road from the town of Val

can drive an automobile or a bug
By a I a comfortable rate ol'
spei-d and o\e*r which the freight

purpose.
"Just now tin; commission is
improving I lie I rail between upper

copper country nearer to Valdez,
than it is to Cordova and giving
this place easy access to Chilina.
By this trail pack animals can
be laken into the copper belt at
less cost than by the railroad."
In reply to a suggestion made
by the reporter of the Prospector,
Colonel Ilichardson expressed his
willingness to accompany the
committee who ar«; to welcome
the officers of the Maryland here,
and to address the commanding
officer of that vessel, informing
him of the superior «- advantages
possessed by Valdez as a coaling
station and the feasibility of a
railroad from this port to the coal
fleld.s and the interior, showing
as well I In* superior advantages
held by this port for defense
against the enemy, as well as
showing that a road built out of
Valdez, could never be blocked by
a foreign foe unless the entrance
