458 and 554. CARL SCHMIDT,

struction work on the government
railroad at the Fairbanks end of the '
line with headquarters at Fairbanks,
arrived in town Sunday evening with
the dog team driven by Dorwin
Browne.
Mr. Ward stated that it was too
early to make anything like a:
definite statement regarding the
spring work on the railroad from
the Happy end of it, but indicated
that the work had been lined up
in accordance with the plans out-1
' lined by the engineer in charge, *
, and that it would be taken in hand
| just as soon as conditions would1
warrant doing so.
Several contracts for a supply of
ties and fuel for the camps and
locomotives had been let, he said,
and the material turned out by the
contractors will be assembled at
! points along the right of way where ’
! it could be readily got when wanted.
| Mr. W'ard will accompany Mr.
! F. D. Browne on his tour to the
j Broad Pass summit, Lignite creek,
Healy river and Kantishna districts,
and will probably be away about
three weeks.

to spare, mushed in as far as Jack
Taylor’s fox farm, near Birch Lake
and took the stage in from that
