"The people of Hainea are anx

Alaska railroad commission," says
J. W. Martin, a prominent nier
chant of that city, who has retim
ed after a few days Tislt In Juneau
on business. "We belt ere that
Hay^ew jTofldes the beet terminal
for an Interior Alasta ' n?1Ir6a(T
route, and the town is quietly hop
ing that the commissioners will re
alise this.
The fact that the line will have
to run through Canadian territory,
Mr. Martin says, is not at all dis
couraging to the people of Haines.
The fact is more than compensated
for by the fact that the line would
open up more Alaska territory
1 than any other which has been pro
posed He thinks the fact that it
would be necessary to haul the coal
1 farther to reach tide water than by
, any other route, ought not to work
against the plan, because that is
simply another way of saying that
it would open up the most country.
