SCORE or CREWS WORKING
ON ALASKAN ROADS
?
Scattered between KetchiKan and
Nome there are more than a score of
crews making roads for the men en
gaged in the development of Alaska,
working under the Alaskan road com
mission. They include men at work
upon the Prince of Wales island road
near Ketchikan, those employed on the
Haines-Hindostucki road, upon the
Valdez-Copper Center road, the Cop.'er
Center-Delta road, the Fairbanks-Delta
road, the roads in the Tanana, Ram
part, Fortymile and Seward peninsula
districts.
Some complaint has been made that
this work was so late in being started
this year but to those who complain it
probably is not known that the funds
appropriated by congress for this work
were not available until July 1st, this
year, and that none of the moaey was
actually in the possession of the com.
mission until near the close of the
month.
The condition of the work at the pre
sent time is as follows:
Allotted for the Portage road on
Prince of Wales island, near Ketchikan,
$10,000. The work, is under way and
will be completed by the end of Sept
ember. F. H.Sylvester, the superin
tendent, says an excellent road is being
made.
Allotted for the Haines-Hindostucki
road, $5,000. Work began yesterday.
Allotted for repairs and alterations
on the trail between Valdez and Copper
Center, $5,0j0. Work is under way now
under the supervision of J. H. Ingram.
Allotted for a new double sled road
between Copper Center and Delt^,
$15,000, and for a continuation of the
same to Fairbanks, $20,000. This work
is now progressing, there being several
crews in the field. Capt. Pillsbury is
giving- it, his personal attention.
Allotted for roads u> Cleary, Esther,
Fairbanks and Dome creeks in the
Fairbanks country, $35,000. This work
is being pushed with all the speed
possible and is under the direction of
John Zug, who has several crews in the
tield.
Allotted for the Skookum Pass the
Nome-Dexter, the East Fork and the
Council roads, in the Seward pennisule
district, $15,000. Several crews
are in the field. The work is un
der the supervision of W. L. Goodwin.
Allotted for the road from Rampart
to Glen gulch, through the famous
Minook country, $10,000. This work is
under way.
Allotted to the Eagle-Fortymile trail.
$5,000. This is being expended under
the direction of F. E. G. Berry.
Allotted to the Kaltag-Unaliklik
trail, 5500, to be expended this summer.
Allotted to the trail from Hope to
Sunrise on the Kenai peninsula, $1500.
This will be expended this summer.
Three thousand dollars hare been
allotted to work between Juneau and
Berners Bay and $4,000 for work be
tween Fait banks and Chinook in the
Rampart district. It is not yet known
whether this work can be done this
year or not.
For office and travelling expenses
emergencies and other allotments yet
to be made there is reserved $15,000.
Had it not been for the fact that the
plans for all this work were prepared
in a large measure from the reconnoit
ering of last year, worked out during
the following' winter, it would have
been impossible to so much under
way in so short a time after the money
for it became available. To do it Major
