ROAD COMMISSION WORK IS
NEARIIMG COMPLETION
This baa been a very busy season for
the Alaskan road commission. Major
Richardson, president of the commis
sion, who returned home Saturday
from Fairbanks and Nome where he
spent rncst of the summer, says the
work has progressed in a manner en
tirely satisfactory to those who have it
in charge. There has been a good
deal of diffculty in getting supples to
the upper Delta on account of the fail
ure of the small boats to run on
previously arranged schedules, because
of low water and other unforseen hind
erances. This compelled > the commis
sion to resort to pack trains and open
boats. But the work Is being pressed
and the trail between Fairbanks and
Valdez will be completed for this
winter regardless of cost.
'?The board is making every possible
effort," said Major Richardson, "to get
a suitable trail between Fairbanks and
Valdez. It recognizes that as the most
important worK under itscharge. Capt.
Pillsbury has given it almost his ex
clusive attention this summer. While
the results might not give entire satis
faction during the coming winter the
trail will have been Immeasurably im
proved and work will be resumed on it
early next season, when It will be com
pleted. The new trail reduces the
distance between Fairbanks and Val
dez 10 miles, making: it now 373 miles."
Major Richardson says the work in
the vicinity of Nome is approaching
completion. A good road has been
built from Council City to the forks of
Solomon river, as well as one from
Nome to the second beach line and ex
tending up and down that line and over i
to Dexter creek.
The work on the road up Minook
creek in the Rampart district is being
prosecuted with (dispatch. The Jack
wade creek trail in the Fortymile
district, has been completed and a road
is beine surveyed from Eagle to the
Fortymile district.
The survey of the mail route between
Fairbanks and Nome is progressing in
a satisfactory manner and will be com
pleted in time for a complete report to
be made by the time.'congressc onvenes.
It is believed that a satisfactory route
will be selected and the distance be- (
tween the great mining camps reduced
250 miles, The route followed is down '
the Yukon to the mouth of the Koy
ukuk river, thence in an air line to the
head of Norton bay. It is 600 miles be
tweon the cities by the proposed route.
