ANCHOR At; K. A tig 14.—After hav
ing made a trip of inspection extend
ing over the Fairbanks, Seward and
nehorage divisions of the govern
ment railroad, William C. Kdes,
chairman of the Alaskan engineering
commission, which has charge of the
In ti line of the road, declares the
t k of construction is progressing
satisfactorily In every division there
is a si-ar ity of laborers, ho says, hut
despite this fact the building of the
line is going forward almost in con
formity with the plans outlined last
spring.
"In the Fairbanks division," states
Mr Kdes, “rails will he laid anti
train swill he operated between Ne
nana and the coal fields, fifty miles
distant front Nenana.
"In the Seward division, as well as
in the southern part of the Anchor
ace division, till grading work will he
finished soon, and the gap of about
seventeen miles between the ends of
steel on the Seward-Anchorage line
will he closed and ready for train op
eration in a month or so. The track
laving machine is busy putting down
rails on the Seward-Anchorage line.
In the Anchorage division grading
is practically completed between
Montana, which is the present end of
sfeel north of Anchorage, and Tal
i keetna. Montana is about ninety-five
miles north of Anchorage, and Tal
] ki etna is about twenty-two miles!
north of Montana. The work of lay-'
ing track between Montana and Tal
keetna will begin in the immediate
future ('.ratling operations are pi"
ure--slnt! favorably between Talkeetna
.it’d Snsittv:. which is thirty four miles;
north of Talkeetna"
Mr luP spent last winter, last
prim; and part of the summer In
Washington * - i * y on business In con
nection with the gov.-rntnent railroad.
"While the government railroad Hi
lt rprise. in common with other enter
prises not directly associated with
the carrying on of the war, necessar-j
ilv suffers front a shortage of labor
and material, there Is no rtwson atj
all for discouragement," he Ways. .“A
very friendly interest in the work is
evinced by congress, and there is'
every reason to believe that with the
restoration of peace and normal con
ditions the completion and operation
of the entire system will be effected
without trouble or delay."
Thre hundred residents of Anchor
ago recently went on an excursion
to the Chickaloon coal fields Most
ol the visitors spent their time pick
ing berries in the woods. Coffee and
hot meals were served at the eating
houses at Chickaloon.
