Before the dream of a railroad from the Yukon placer mines to tidewater can be realized, at least 60.000 square miles of Alaskan territory must be surveyed and platted, according to the experts of the Geological Survey. This tremendous work will cost about $3 a square. Professor Walcott estimates. Tie Yukon-tidewater rail road will have to traverse the mountain barrier that stretches westward from the 141st merdian to the west side of Cook Inlet These mountains are broken by a number of waterways and by several passes, all of which have been explored by members of the survey whose reports indicate where the most .feasible routes may be found. The Alaskan railways are big money. making ventures, the government experts say, and even the small logging roads built in the territory have paid fine re turns on the investment. Under the present methods the transportation of all supplies and food taken to theChistochina camp cost $1 a pound in summer and 50 cents in winter.
