To the Honorable Board of Supervisors,
Bayfield County, ;isconsin.
Your special Committee appointed.to look after the building of the
bridges and approaches on that part o,£ the prospective State Highway System
known as the ''Long Bridge" road, beg leave to submit the following report:
Pursuent to .the resolution adopted by .your, Board, ac,ceptirkg the
recommendation of the engineers,: that two .stell bridges be built with
approaches and fills,, your Committee advertised for bids ,f or two (2) steel
bridges complete, to be placed upon concrete piers in accordance with plans
and specifications submitted. ,
A number .of .bids were received and contract made with the Hennepin
Bridge Co., of Minneapolis, Minn., their bid being the low8st, in which
they agreed to build both biidges complete for the sum of $8,560.,00, the
work to be completed by May 1st, 1914.
Your Committee then advertised for bids on .the •.a.,ork of building up
the road on this route and filling the bridge approaches, but up to this
time have received no bids for this part of the work. We have decided not
to make any furthereffort until spring, except to purchase what timber.and
lumber is required for the work and have it hauled out to its location dur-
ing the winter months, so that it will be on hand fore arly spring work.
If your Committee is unable in the spring to let contract for this
work to responsible parties at a reasonable price, it will then be,necessary
for them to have the work done by the day, under the supervision of a com-
petent foreman.
All of.which is respectfully submitted.

Adjourned annual session, Docember lst and 2d, 1913.
The following report of the ;torte Highway Commission, relative to the
Sioux River Bridge on the Pour Mile Creek road, was presented:
WISCONSIN HIGHWAY COMMISSION
Madison, 17is,, Aug. 26, 1913.
Mr. F. M. Sergeant,
Ashland, Wis,
Dear Sir:
Mr. Hirst has referred your letter of August 13th relative to the pro-
posed reloc'ation at the Soo River crossing to me.for reply. From your pro-
file it appears that the existing road deviates from the section line a distance
about 800 feet in order to descend at a low g rade .to the point at which it is
possible to cross the river valley ,with a span of approximately 200 feet length.
Your profile shows that at sides of the valley it is possible to get grades of
less than 6% in the approaches to the bridge in its existing location. The ob-
faction to•this route is that it drifts in winter.
The alternative location consists of continuing the road on a straight
line and crossing the valley of the Soo River with an elevated trestle. This
trestle will have to be about 1001 above the stream bed and in the neighborhood of
9001 long, the advantages of this trestle being that it saves the descent to the
bridge in its existing location and the climb to reach_ high level again. also
that it will be free from the drifting of snowy in the winter -time.
Sometime ago I prepared an estimate of the cost of replacing the exist-
ing structure with a steel trestle of approximately equal length, this -esti-
mate being about $7000. I have made no careful estimate of the cost of the
proposed new trestle, but would say that it will range somewhere between
$35,000 and $40,000, tha .probability being that the excess in cost over the
bridge to replace the existing structure will be in the neighborhood of $30,000.
47e believe that .the road in its present location can be graded so as to give
a perfectly uniform grade from the high level to the level of thebridge in its
present position, and that the resulting grade will be much easier than many
others on the ame road. ire alsocelieve that it is possible to build snow
femces along this road in such.a `gray as to prevent drifting, and we believe
that the total cost of this grading and snow fences will not be much. more than
one -tenth of the excess cost of the high trestle. We therefore feel that the
construction of this high trestle cannot be justified on any grounds, and we
must decline to approve this proposed -relocation.
Yours very truly,
WISCOTdSIN HIGHWAY COMMISSION

The following report of the Wisconsin Highway Commission was presented
and accepted: 11
771SCONSIN HIGHWAY COiUT1IS:3ION
Report to Ba,yfield and Doug;jias .County Boards on the conditions affect—
the various proposed routes of the
Ashland Superior Road
Through Douglas and Dayfield Counties with approximate estimate of the
cost of each route.
Route 1 (The North or Lakeshore route),
Distance center to center of cities about 85 miles.
This route follows the long bridge road from Ashland to Washburn and
leaves Washburn at what is known as the Four Mile Crook Road. West from Wash --
burn it is red clay for about eight miles, with a number of heavy cuts and
fills to make. The road then enters what is known as the "Barrens." Soil
very light and sandy, but with easy grades for about eight miles, until you
reach the Cranberry Valley.
From there ?Vest, the country is very rought, with red clay soil to Port
Wing, but by disregarding property lines and keeping along the second bench
above the Flag River, a road could be located through there with very easy
grades.
From Port ?ding West there is a very well located road to the County
Line, with practically no grades except on corssing the Iron River and the
;Reefer.
Soil. from Port Wing [lest is sandy loam and red cloy.
From a point a mile Nest of the County Line, this route should lead
South to Route J2, through Douglas County, as a road along the Lake Shore
as originally indicated would be practically out of the question &t the
present time, and impossible to construct at any reasonable cost.
From what 1 saw of the country, T would think it could, however, be
acc orripli Che d by winding back and forth between the streams, as some have
the best crossing near the mouth, and some of the ravines could be avoided
entirely by working back one or two miles, but this would make considerablem
more mileage than to drop South to Route 4,2 in the first place, and also Mahe
a road with a greater number of heavy grades.
I would not want to make an estimate on the cost of a road along the
lake shore through Douglas County without at least two weeks' time to go
over it thoroughly, but am convinced that it could not be done under $5,000
per mile, including bridges. This' would make the cost about $125,000 to
$150,000 through Douglas County to the East City limits of Superior.
In my judgment, the only practicable way toctevelop -the Northern part
of Douglas County is to construct a good main road back far enough from the
lake shore to avoid most of the bad ravines, and then run branch roads North
and South between the stream,, where good locations can be gotten without
heavy expense for bridging rind cutting down hills.
I would estimato the cost of this route about as follows:
Ashland to Washburn (constructed). This portion of the work has been
provided for by the Bayf ield County board and will have to be built in any
event.,
Washburn to Dayfield County Dine, $55,000 to $60,000 (exclusive of
Sioux River bridge,. which must be built anyway)
Douglas County Line to Superior East Limits.
Along Lake Shore, say $140,000
Along Route #2 90,000
Estimated ttal cost.via Lake Shore, $190,000 to $200000
it Route #2 1501P000
The connection between the "Barrens" and Port Wing could bel oponed
in good shape for $25,000, which, with some repairs on present roads,would
make a passable road through Hayfield County on this route. The road in
Douglas County would be all new on the Lake Shore Route and all new to the
Ammicon River on Route ;?2.
Route #2 (The Center Route) -
This route is thesame As ;f1, Ashland to Washburn. From Washburn it
runs by a new location, not precisely settled, up the hill to about the.
1 .post on the South side of Section 2. From the 4 post on the South side
of Section 2 west to the 1. post on the South side of Section 6, in the same
town, is a fairly good road with no very bad grades. Soil red clay.
Adjourned annual session, December 1st and 2d, 1913.
At this point we enter s�.ndy soil., grades not bad .f or the f irst two
miles or to the 1 post on the South side of Section 48--6.
From there we would have to swing northwest regardless of property
lines, as the country is very hilly t6 Headquarters on the Northern Pacific
Railway.
V�rorci headquarters we ,could follow the Town Dine 'to the Southeast corner
of. Section 33-39-7, with fairly easy grades, but as we strike country ahead
that is too hilly to go through, I would advise.turning Northwest near the
Southeast corner of Section 35, or possibly further East, as we have to make
a pass in thanange of hills near the post between Sections 28 and 29-49--7
and from there work South along the Northern Pacific track, .crossing just North o:
Coda and keeping southwest to the town.corners just north of Slowbridge.
This work from where we leave the south line of 49-7 to the pass be-
tween sections 28 and 29 is through a very hilly country and will be heavy work
as the hills are all sand and will have to be cut to easy grades. All of this
stretch to Slowbridge will have to to located regardless of property lines.
From Slowbridge .vest, we can follow the sown Line all the vay to the
County Line, except across the two forks of the Iron River, where it will be
necessary to make slight detours in order to Get the required grades.
The first three miles west from Slowbridge is sandy loam, with soft, hills;
the other nine miles are red clay and fairly level, except at the two branches
of the Iron River and at the Reefer, said streams being in verydeep ravines.
There are also a few small ravines but nothing serious.
The Reefer and the East branch of the Iron River have wooden bridges
Chat would ans9,ver fez• a fevr years, but would have to be replace by the time
the road is completed and opened for heavy traffic.
From the County Line west through Douglas.County, I think the best route wou
be to follow the Torn Line west to the Norltheast corner ,of section 2-48-11, and
then go south two miles and turn west (as we find one of the worst ravines on
the route at the northwest corner of said section 2) intersecting the Itasca Road
on the south line of section 9-48-13 and going in to Superior on the said road.
This route is all red clay in Douglas County.
From the northeast corner of section 2-48-10 west for two and one-half
miles the road has been opened up, and there are wooden bridges across Dermants
Creek and across the Brule River, but the hills have never been cut down and
thegrades are almost impassable for teams. The bridges will have to be re-
built when thegrades are cut down.
The balance of this route will be practically all new work west to the
Ammicon River. '
In this distance, counting the two that have wooden bridges, there are
sixteen of these deep ravines ranging from 451 to 1001 deep, that will hage
to be bridged and the hills cut down, and about as many more smaller ones
that wou]l only require largo culverts and a small amount of grading.
I understand that the money has been raised for a new bridge across the
Ammicon River, and the grading across the valley is well under way.
From the Ammicon west to the Itasca Road, thegrades are in fair shape,
but there are several small bridges that will have to be replaced and some
hills to cut down. The Itasca road is surfaced.
Estimate of cost (including grading, culverts and bridges)
Ashland to Washburn (See route f1l)
From Washburn to Bayfield County Line $60,000
Prom Douglas County Line to Ammicon River 85,000
From Ammicon River to Superior (now passable) constructed or provided for.
Total estimated cost $145,000.
Route J3.
Distance center to center of cities about 70 miles.
This route runs from Ashland via Ashland Junction., over the 14ason Road,
to the crossing of the Omaha Railway on the south line of section 13-47-6;
-thence turning ;vest across the Fish Creek on new bridge built by the town of
Pilsen .in 1913; thence west along the north side of Fish -Creek to the west side
of section 16-•47-6; thence south across the Northern Pacific track; thence west
along the south side of the Northern Pacific .track, through Iron River to
Pearson; thence dossing to the north side of the tr^,cks and going west to the
County Line.

Adjourned annual session, December 1st and 2d, 1913.

On this route you would have the- County Road already built to section
13-47-6 and bridges built across Fish Creek.
-From the County Road west the road is partly built to the Northern
Pacif is tracks, but would all have to be regraded and considerably heavy
cutting and filling done at Fish Creek.
You can get a road without bridges and with very light grades by
following up the valley to the west side of section 20-47-7.
From that point to the Topside, a distance of about three miles, it is very
hilly and will;be quite expensive.
. From Topside west.to Iron River it is rolling, but you can get a very
good line through without very heavy work.
rpm Iron River West .to the County Line there are fairly a asy grades,
except for the first mile out of Iron River, where there would be considerable
heavy work.
This route would be red clay until we get into Section 15-47_6, From
there west to section 20-47-7 is sandy loam. From section 20 to Topside it
is sandy loam on the surface. I'think in making cuts that we will open up sand
in all the heavy work, requiring the hills to be cut to easy grades and pro-
bably soma surface dirt hauled in some places.
.From Topside to about four miles west of Iron River it is very sandy,
and from there to the County Line, sandy loam.
This route through Douglas County should follow the main travelled
road along the Northern Pacific to Ammicon, there keeping straight west to
Grand Avenue; then northwest on Grand, Avenue to Parkland and thence crossing
the South Shore and going in to Superior on the Itasca Road.
On this route in Douglas County the road is fairly good now from the
County Line to the B rule River. here is a wooden bridge Jthat will soon have
to be replaced, There is also a small stream just east of the Brule River
that has a wooden bridge.
'From the Bruld to Blueberry -the road is very poor, barely passable for
a team. This stretch should be practically all relocated before it is re-
built,. Soil'is sandy loam and some swamps. Could be relocated with very
easy grades.
From Blueberry to Maple there are some hills, but most of them could be
he-lped considerably by relocation. Soil, sandy loam.
-This stretch could be made fairly good with a little repair (some small
culverts .and a fey: large stones removed).
From Maple to Popl.r the road has been fairly well graded at one time.
This could be put in fair condition by removing a few stoner, opening up the
drainage, and going over with a road machine. Sandy loam with easy grades.
From Poplar to Wentworth there its all clay. Two miles of veryrbad road
before reaching the Ammicon. Nei- bridge on Ammicon and contract let for fill-
ing approaches. Job partly done.
From the Ammicon one mile very poor road, hardlx_passable; then one mile
under construction, and from there to Grand Avenue fairly well graded.
. Grand Avenue in bad shape part of the way, but I understand it is to be
surfaced next year. Itasca Road surfaced.
I would estimate the cost of Route #3 through Bayfield County to be ,'$-38,000
This would include grading and culverts, but would not include the bridge at
Iron River, which I understand has already b een taken care of by levy for 1914
work.
Would consider that $26,000 would,put to standard grade the part from
Mason Road to Topside, This with a little repair on the balance, would make
the whole route passable.
This route across Douglas County would require for grading, culverts,
and bridges about $40,000, or about $15,000 to rebuild the.part now impassable.
These figures would give, f or a state standard dirt road from Ashland to
Superior, a cost of $78,000; to leave the present passable roads as they are
and build to state standard the missing links, would cost $41,000, and this
would produce a fairly good road between the two cities...
Conclusions.
Route #1 would, undoubtedly, be the most popular tourist route if it
coulb be opened along the lake shore or in sight of it from Port Wing to
Superior, but if it had to coincide with Route #2 in Douglas County it would
have no especial advantage for through travel over the other routes. It would
provide a direct road from Port Wing to Washburn now lacking.
Route #2 would open up a good area of country, -and, in my estimation, with
a good system of cross roads, would serve the people farther north just as well
as any route could, as they have to come south to about that point to ,get into
toe main centers. The great drawback to this route is that it never will be
a good road to travel in wet weather until it is surfaced. And as there is no
surfacing material along the route, and as it lies far from shipping points at
r
78
Adjourned annual session, December lst and 2d, 1913.
most parts of its course, it seems to me that the cost of surfacing would
be almost prohibitive, ,
Route ,§3 is the cheapest to build and has not nearly so many heavy
grades as the other two. It would ;always be a better road to travel in
wet weather befote it is surfaced, and lying as it does, along the rail—
roads, could be surfaced at a far less cost.
No estimate of the cost of surfacing the three routes has been a.t—
tempted,.as to make any adequate estimate wo-uld involve a careful exami—
nation of the surrounding country to,locate available materials, if any.
All routes are deficient in surfacing materials, and from information
available, it would seem that surfacing will be a tremendously expensive
proposition, on all of them. Number 1 will probably be the least expen—
sive per mile, number 3 the next, and number 2 the most expensive.
Inasmuch as surfacing would be probably delayed for years, even if
either of these routes is opened, and inasmuch as conditions and types
of surfacing may alter before the time comes to surface, it would seem
wise t& disregard this question at this time.

State Highway Engineer. By F. M. Sergeant,
Division Engineer.
The follo,tiing report was presented:
Your committee appointed to look over the several routes for
a road from Washburn to Superior begs leave to make the following
report:
After having looked over the two proposed routes, we believe
that the straight line known as the Wanebo road should be adopted as
the through road between Washburn and Superior, but in vievr of the
heavy ;.pork on this route in Douglas County, we recommend that a tem—
porary road be opened up along the N.P. tracks to intersect with our
county road about two and one—half miles north of Dauby. This tem—
porary road should be opened up at once and the other road built as
fast as we can.

Whereas, engineers, contractors,taxing officers.and others familiar

most unanimous in the opinion that the Income Tax Collector in his annual reports
has greatly overvalued the property of the several assessment districts of the
said county for the present and past several years, and has arbitrarily and with-
out cause from year to year greatly raised his figures as to such values, and
has treated the officers of said county, and the taxing officers of the assess-
ment districts therein with contempt, and has expressed a desire to be relieved
from the duty of supervising the assessment and equalization of said county in
the following terms,
"I am entirely disgusted with the attitude of the town officers of the
County, and it is my intention to ask the Tax Commission to be relieved of
Bayfield County, and will take any other County on its place."
Now, therefore, by the County Board of Bayfield County assembled this
2d day of December, 1913,
Do resolve .that the Wisconsin _Tax Commission. be requested to relieve
Mr. Landraint of the .performance of any official duties in Bayfield County,
and that the,County Clerk of the county be; and is hereby directed to trans-
mit a certified copy of this -resolution to the Wisconsin Tax Commission.
