WAGON ROAD
io sour
The government wagon road from j
Skagway to the summit of the White ;
Pass seems to have p;issed the <
embryptlc stage, and two members i
of the Alaska Road Commission
have been instructed to investi- ;
gate into its feasibility and to es
timate the cost of its construc
tion.
Lieutenant Edgerton, engineer, ]
and J. C. Hayes, superintendent of
tho first division of the territory,
the two officials named above,
came up on the last northern voy
age of the Alameda, thi former
.-ontiuuing on to Valdez, from which
point ho will return in about three
weeKs to this place, while Mr Hayes
remained here and has siucu gone
iver the proposed routo with a
view of making a comprehensive re
port to Lieut. Edgerton on his
return.
Yesterday, at 9 o'clock a. m. Mr.
Hayes, accompanied by C. B. Bos
i hart, weut over the line of the
1-roposed road for about 10 miles
to the vicinity of White Pass City,
and upon their return reported it
to be an easy matter to construct
a good road to that poiu:.
Mr. Boshart, who has for years
! been an enthusiast on the cousruc-1
j tion of a wagon road from Skagway
' to the summit, has been over the
; proposed route frequently during
I that time and has drawn an out
I lino map of the whole cf the dis
tance to be covered, furnished Mr.
Hayes .with a copy of his vork and
that gentleman has engaged Phil
Abrahams to make a blue print of
i the map, which, while not official,
j will be brought to the notice of
Lieut. Edgerton upon his arrival
here.
Messrs. Hayes and Boshart are
today investigating a route for the
: road via Black Lake canyon.
OH HIS WAY II
T. M. Daulton, the Ruby creek,
j Atlin district mine operator, will
leave on the train in the morning
j for his camp in the Interior, where
he will, as he has for the past five
: veal's, work about 20 men during
j tlio summer months. Mr. Daulton's
j mines are about 17 miles from At
1 lin and 5 miles from Surprise Lake,
; into which body of water Ruby
creek empties.
The majority of the men working
| for the Ruby Creek Gold Mining
i Co., of which Mr Daulton is the
manager, either go outside in the
j winter or take up quarters in Atlin,
j but some of them are kept at
work there the year round in cutting
logs for different purposes and
wood for fuel, while last winter
over 100 tons of 80 carbon plate
steel was extended on the bottom
of sluice boxes in the place of the
old wooden blocks which were used
for riffles.
