t Colonel Richardson on

Tells of North
in Seattle
. SEATTLE, Nov. 7.?Col. \\\ P.
5 Richardson and Capt. J. C. MohnfT
i oy, of the Board of Alaska ltoad
- Commissioners, are In Seattle on
, their way to Washington. D. C.,
, where they will mako their annual
,* reports and spend about three
> months before returning to the
North, says the Times.
"A half-million-dollar approprla
. tlon, while not all wo could use,
; gives us a pretty fair working fund
? and permits of the building and im
. proving of many miles of roads,"
; said Colonel Richardson this morn
? ing. "If Congress will give us this
i same amount each year, it will not
? be many years before Alasku will
? have a real system of roads.
i "Of course, we cannot build the
type of roads you ate used to here
in Washington State; If we did, our
money would be spent before we
r hail accomplished anything. In Al
l aska a mile of surfaced road of the
? type we are making now costs us
from $-000 to $.1000, while hero it
costs the taxpayers from SIL'.OOO to
$18,000 per mile."
Colonel Richardson is chairman
of the road commission and Capt.
Mchaffey, of the engineer corps of
the United States army, also a mem
ber of the board, is in charge of
the field work.
Roadbuilding- in North.
SEATTLE, Nov. 8.?Difficulties of j
roadbuilding In the Far North won* j
explained this morning by Lieut.
Col. \V. P. Richardson, 'chairman
of the Alaskan road commission,
and Capt. J. ('. Mehaftey, Corps of
Engineers, U. S. A., in charge of
the field work of the commission,
now registered at the Savoy on
their return to Washington. 1). ('.
"Tho glacial rivers, which are
constantly changing their course,
form one of the ehlcf difficulties of
the Alaskan roadbuilder," said Capt.
MchafTey. "The frozen ground is
another difficulty. In one place
where a mining company had made
a cross section of soil, we found
we were building a road over tun
dra, below which was six feel of
clear ice left by the primitive gla
cial ice sheet."?(Seattle Times.)
