Proposal for a Permanent North River Wagon Road to Cosmopolis
Rudolph Distler urges the Chehalis county commissioners and surveyors to adopt a permanent wagon road route from North River to Cosmopolis. He argues the old elk-trail paths are wasteful and proposes a valley route around Burned Hill with minimal grade, connecting to the South Side road near Cosmopolis. He pledges to join settlers in demonstrations to prove the plan’s merit and cites community growth as his motive.
