material is being hauled
for NEW ROOSEVELT ROAD
The Bartlett teams which are at
work in the Kantishna district haul
ing ore from the Aitken mine to
the river landing at Roosevelt, will
also be used to distribute corduroy
along the new summer road, for use
in bridging the swampy places, ac
cording to Ed Bartlett, who arrived
in Nenana last night. Mr. Bartlett
brought seven horses out with him
and shipped them to Healy from
Kantishna station, and left six head
of stock in the Kantishna to finish
the work there. The horses which
were shipped to Healy will be used
by the Alaskan Engineering com
mission.
The suspension of the Aitken
mining operations ^"ound Mr. Bart
lett with more hoses on his hands
than he could use to advantage, and
with a number of new trail buildings
and freighting equipment which will
be of no further value until other
Kantishna ledges are brought to
the shipping stage of development.
Mr. Bartlett is of the opinion that
the district will not suffer greatly
in consequence of the withdrawal
of Aitken. There are many good
ledges there, he says, and several
of them will be on a shipping basis
within a short time. J. A. Haney al
ready has considerable ore ready
to go to the smelter and the new
Quigley ledge is being developed
in a manner that insures a steady
stream of ore later on. Quigley has
erected buildings on the property
and is doing his development work
in a most- thorough manner. Haney
has one man working with him at
present.
As soon as the summer road has
been put in shape for travel, it will
be possible to haul ore and other
supplies during the summer as well
as winter, in the opinion of Mr.
Bartlett. The road is somewhat long
er than the winter road between
Roosevelt and Moose creek, but 5t
is on high ground the greater part
of the way.
