HAN FKANUIHl'O, (Jul., Auk. 20.
Richard A. HullltiKor, Hoorotary of
thu interior, today in on route to Se
attle, haviiiK ruturnuil from a trip of
inspection to lliu Yosemito and tho
Ilutch-IIetcliy water lioiid.
From hlu brief Hiirvoy of oontlilioiiH
in tho park, HalliiiKor oritioisoH tlio
lack of hotel ucuommodutioiis and
thu condition of tho roads that keeps
tliem from heiiiK used every season
of tlio year. IliilliiiKur iiIho fuvorH u
plan for thu Htonigo of wator with
which to keep tho Yosumito Fulls,
tho behest in the vniloy, ut thuir
maximum flown no throughout the
yenr.
"I Hlinll recommend, said uulliii
Kor, "that so far as tlio Kovoriiinent
has Hiipervisinn of thu roads in tlio
valley ami thu national park, that
they be put in condition for public
travel tit nil seasons of tho yenr.
Some of them in tho dry season of
the year are almost intolerable on
account of thu dust.
"Jt is also highly desirublo that u
road he built iiIouk tho soutli rim of
Yosemito canyon, coiiueotiiiK thu Vn
woiia road, above Inspiration point,
with Glacier point.
Equally imiHirtiiut with thu oon
struction of roads is tho matter of
additional hotel facilities within the
valley for thu iicuomomdatiou of
tourists.
"In order to keep in perputual op
eration through the dry seiiHon, one
of thu most bountiful features of thu
valley the Yosemito Falls an iu
vestii;atioii is luting made as to the
feasibility of divertiiiK and storinj;
sufficient water to maintain a con
tinuous flow of Ihesu fulls, which ure
now completely dry, mid will remain
so until tho wet season begins.
"I wns sttuck with the vandalism
exhibited in the wanton injury of
some of thu hit: trees. I shall order
the drizzly Giant fenced in.
"All private interests, so far as
possible, should ho eliminated from
national parks. It is my desire that
eoiiKreH oimht to find u way to wipe
out the private interests in then)
hinds, nnd I shall make recommen
dations to thnt effect."
HUGE FIRES RAGE
