It. C. Fload Commissioner Hugh
Molyneaux, is out from Atlln on lii?
wny to Wrangell whore lio will make
arrangements to go up the Stlklne
ri-.er and begin laying out work On
llio government road from Tele
graph creek to Lloose lake, a dls
tt.ee of about ninety miles.
This ro.nl xvaa established by the
(W:iadiai; government 'a number of
yeiirs ago, but was completed only
so far as the making of a trail. It
Is the Intention of Mr Molyneaux to
put a foreo of men at work and cut
out a serviceable winter trail to
make Doeso lake country more ac
c e slble 'or traffic up the Stlklne.
Mr. Molyneaux Informs us that lie
iii: Mids going Into the Porcupine dls
Lrlct within the next few weeks,
itnd will endeavor to co-operate with
the Alaska Road commission in coin
lining a through road from Haines.
Me says that If the American road
builders will reconstruct the bridge
ross Glacier crcek, which ought
i >: to cost more than three hundred
lollars, n< will put men In there an
lo the -i 'oessar> maintenance work
"ii tin1 Canadian side; but thero Is
no necessity for doing further work
there uiiI<vh the connecting bridge
3 built, in order that through traf
fic may be opened.
Mr. Mol,. neaux informs us that
liiiigs are looking fine In Atlln.
1'here is plenty of water and the
minora on nil the creeks are making
lailsfaciory clean-ups. He Is, bulld
og n# 60-foot road from Atlln to
3'Donucl river and will have It com-,
ileted this summer.
One o, the reasons, why the work
ai'ler Mr Molyneaux Is prosecuted
? it h remarkable success is because
le, nor rune of his workmen, spend
line or money In official red tape or
i the Interminable production of
due pr'uts when building roads or
arldges. He takes his crews of ex
ierlenc-.l woodmen and carpenters
ii'i1 the necessary tools, and going
nto the woods they take what is at
land and build the roads. The re
e.i.l ha; been that the Canadian side
i is permanent highways, while we
iiave practical!? nothing of value.
