lieve nothing on the subject un
' til the text of the note is received.
Cautain A. L. Bell returned Sat*
I urday night from a trip to Pleasant
j camp. The Captain reports the
I roads in fair condition after the
j lu-jh water but stated that it was
I douo'tul in his mind if they would
j It able to do much, mining in the
I I'orcupin© district next year as the
i floods have filled up the workings
I to such an extent that it would
j take the wboel season to clear away
: the deoris and accumulated* rocks
' ami gravel that fills up all the pits.
| The Captain was making an offi
cial patrol as he removed the de
1 tachment from Pleasant Camp last
1 si ring. , ;j|^
j Speaking of Rainy Hollow Cap
tain Bell said, "Dick Kennedy is
now in Haines looking after the
! shipment of the ore mined during
I Hi« past season in their property
I tl-ay did not get as much ore out as
| will hereafter, providing they have
' cood roads. 1 understand that the
Un_at business men of Haines are
t-ikipg this matter "p with the
Alaska Road Commission and are
•vtitioning this commission to work
with the B. C. government in get
tins roads to this dnsrtict. As it is
now the ore has to be relayed three
tim?s and if it were not exceptional
ly lich it would not stand thp cost
of transportation. I liave no
diubt but the B. C. government will
do their duty in road making as
taey make it their busings to aid
miners in the way of roads and1
trails." 331)
