MILE CF TRACK
IS LAID BEYOND
ORY CREEK NOW
The work of extending steel south
from Xenana toward the canyon is
progressing rapidly under the direc
tion of Track Foreman Louis Lee,
the rails having reached a point ap
proximately one mile beyond the
Dry creek bridge this afternoon,
where they have come to a brief
halt, pending the completion of a
, four-bent bridge.
The driving of piling for the
bridge will he undertaken immedi
ately by the track driver, and it is
‘ expected that traeklaying will be in
full string again by Sunday or Mon
day. There is another small bridge
to be constructed a short distance
beyond the present end of steel, and
an eight-bent bridge will be driven
at Camp creek, close to the canyon
and near where the winter camp will
be established, about two miles be
yond the present end of steel.
All but one of the contractors
between the end of steel and Camp
creek have completed their work,
and the last of the grading will be
completed late today, by Peter
Dolan, who has been engaged in
making a fill in a small lake. There
is some station work in progress
; south of Camp creek, but it is be
yond the proposed end of steel and
will not hold up the tracklaying.

TOLOVANA WILL
HAVE TELEPHONE
According to information received
from the Tolovana district, it is the
intention of the residents of that
camp to install a telephone system,
with long distance connections, dur
ing the winter or early spring. They
feel keenly the loss of the wireless
station which was maintained at
Brooks for a number of years, and
will replace it with a phone line
connecting with the Government
telephone line at Dunbar's, where
the log.iam trail connects with the
railroad The wire will be strung
from Brooks to the logjam, and
thence along the winter trail to
the railroad.
The work of putting the Brooks
trail in shape for winter travel is
now in progress, under the direc
tion of John Joslin, who has a con
siderable force of men engaged on
the project. The work was started
early this month and will include
the cutting of approaches where the
trail crosses the Chatanika river and
other streams, the flagging of the
trail where it crosses open stretches
of country, and perhaps the build
ing of a new trail around one or
more of the lakes traversed by the
old route. The sum of $2,000 or
more will be expended on the work.
The improvement of the trail, it
is believed, will be followed by its
general use by the people of Tolo
vana, as it will shorten the dis
tance considerably. And its use will
make business for the Government
railroad.
The improvement was suggested
by the N'enana Commercial club
many months ago, soon after the
commencement of railroad construc
tion north of N'enana, and a direct
appeal was finally made to the Alas
ka Roa 1 commission for relief, with
the re;... :hat the project was un
dertaken without further delay.

CLUB TO ELECT
AT MEETING ON
FRIDAY NIGHT
A very important meeting- of the
jXrenana Commercial club will be
;held at the quarters of the organ
ization in the Union building to
morrow night, that being the date
of the annual gathering of members
j for the election of officers. The
members are manifesting much in
terest in the election and there prob
ably will be a large turnout in con
i sequence, and a lively contest for
places.
The past year has been an event
; ful one in Commercial club annals, j
the organization having taken up
many matters of importance to Xe
jnana and the X'enana district and
carried numerous of the campaigns
: to a successful conclusion. The
most recent accomplishment of the !
club was the Brooks trail improve- i
ment, which is now under way un
Jder the direction of the Alaska Road
i commission, and which will resuit
i in a material lowering of transporta
tion costs to the people of the Tolo
vana district, the creation of new
i business for the Government rai'
i
road, and the diversion of a sub
stantial portion of that business to j
!X’enana, which is the nearest town]
to Brooks and the Tolovana dig-1
i . 1
igingsc j
The coming year will be produc- j
jtive of much more work for the
!club, of greater importance, per
haps, than any yet undertaken, and
She members realize the necessity
of having men at the head of the
; organization who will give as good
an account of their administration
, as have the officers who have been
iin charge of affairs during the past (
i year.
i
There are several matters, other j
than the election, which will receive i
the attention of the members at {
tomorrow night’s meeting. One of i
these matters is the freight rate j
established by the Alaskan Engi-1
j
neering commission on the complet
ed portion of the Government rail
road. j
