WHY NOT MAKE IT A TOLI.
ROAD?
Although the article "A. R. C. to,
Build 573,000 Bridge," is printed
as a Juneau dispatch in today's pa
per, it is not £0 much as a news |
item that attention is hereby called
to it, but a suggestion for the solu- j
tion of the difficulty we are having 1
in securing an appropriation for the
construction of the much talked of
road leading from Skagway to the
summit of the White Pass.
Tct article which tells of the
plan of the Juaeau district to
charge tolls for the use of tho 1
bridge that the A. R. C. advances
funds for the construction thereof,
suggests the idea that the Skagway
Commercial club bring the matter
of the White Pass Summit road up
to Colonel Richardson, president of
th? Alaska Road commission, in the
same manner, and a^ree with him
for the reimbursement to the com
mission for the money incident to
the building of the road.
It is believed to be au accepted
fact that a wagon road paralleling
the White Pass railway to the sum
mit would be au advantage to Skag
way; great numbers of tour
ists would motor over such a road,
and vaj*. amoua's of tonnage would
be freighted over such a thorough
fare.
la a number of the states, whero
highways have been constructc-1.
foils are being charged; said tolls
are placed in a sinking fund for
the purpose of reimbursing the
state fcr the initial cost, as well
as for the upkeep of the road.
Wby, then, would not a system
o" tolls repay iu a short time such
moneys as might be advanced by
the A R. C. for the construction of
the Skagway-Whlte Pass wagon
road?
